so i grabbed the 202 and headed back to THE HOTEL were i pulled the 1890 and 1902 IH.. well after about 1 hour sir barber checked out of the hotel :icon_thumleft: my 1st barber in almost 2 years of swinging.. and it is a nice 1906o :headbang: it was hidding next to the U.M.C. co end stamp. at 6 in deep, and after the end stamp came out and i stirred the hole for what i figured was more junk. out it jumped at me, and i new it was a old keeper and was freaking even before i could clean it to identify it.... it's my 2ND oldest silver next to my 1879s Morgan :D been the best labor day ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! best of digs to all, and go get them barbers ;D ;D MR TUFF
