Got a Handful of Silver Coins Today

[washingtonian]

Hey everybody,

Had an unexpectedly great day! Tied my 2nd best silver coin total on the year with 4 today. Pretty crazy and a fun mix too. A barber Quarter, war nickel, and two Rosies.

This was all in the sidewalk strips outside my neighbor across the street's house. I introduced myself last week, asked permission, and they told me to go for it. Finally had a few hours to get after it today.

Here they are in all their glory. Don't give me too much grief on the barber. It was 6 inches deep sandwiched between rocks



Good luck out there this weekend!

Thanks! Oldest was a 1917. There were a couple 1920-S Wheats too. Everything else was late 20s on.

Well if you considered it somehow unworthy, I'll be happy to give you my mailing address! I've never found a Barber anything, so that coin is straight up beautiful!
