Hey Everyone,
Got out to an old house with a friend of mine. Had my best day detecting yet. It started with a signal that bounced around between dime and quarter on my F2. I dug in and pulled out a 1913 S Barber dime, I yelled to my buddy "I got a Barber dime!" he came over, we looked over the coin and chatted a little. I told him this was my first Barber dime and my oldest coin so far. Getting back to the hunting I said, "everyone says you need to check the hole before you fill it in right?" I swing the coil over the hole and got a solid quarter signal, I don't have to tell you how excited I was, but I was very excited. I told my buddy, "there's something else in there". I knelt down and as I moved some dirt around with my hand I caught a glimpse of the edge of a coin, I said "there it is" I pulled it out. It was a 1912 Barber quarter :o couldn't believe it, my new oldest coin ever and my first Barber quarter.
First Barber dime, first Barber quarter, first hunt with more than one silver, first hole with more than one silver in it,oldest coin to date AND my buddy was with me which really made it great, I'll never forget this day.
Thanks for looking,
Glenn
