Out this morning hitting the old park by my house with my huntin’ buddy Jeff. Started very slow but hit a hot spot late. Jeff picked up 8 wheaties and no silver, but the past three hunts with him he out silvered me 13 to 1😒 anyway, nice 1899 barber with a 1920 merc 10” away and a 191? Wheatie. All in all, very slow on the clad, I’m usually the clad king.

Thanks for lookin’, HH and GL!!

That’s my second barber quarter this summer and I’ve found a half as well, but I can’t find a barber dime to save my life. It’s my white whale ):

sweet! congrats on the silver. like many have said, miss something by inches, might as well have been a mile...it is still a missed target. one of my grandsons was a blunderbutt at fishing and other things but somehow managed to catch a lot of fish and really big ones too. Sometimes it just a matter of digging those iffy signals, one never knows but some people do seem to find good stuff in spite of themselves LOL.

Very Nice Barber Q. I've only found one myself. I definitely want to get some more in my collection. They aren't super easy to find.
