It must be barber quarter day from the looks of Bassman’s post😳. Anyway, I was walking through the wet woods as usual not really expecting much but wheaties and V nickels when I got the usual 28-30 shallow beer can signal. It was showing 6” and it didn’t pass the foot in the air beer can test so I said what the hell, let’s dig it.........at first I said nice clad quarter, then I wiped it off😳 I almost sharted myself. Best looking barber quarter for me.

Absolutely beautiful coin! It will never stop amazing me to see how well these silver and gold coins are preserved in the dirt! This one must have been dropped early on! Great find, I wish you many more!

Wow does it get any better than that!? I doubt it. I hate the beer can signal. Now I'll have to investigate those more often!

Don't know, kinda has the look of a Chinese counterfeit. :laughing7:

Congrats on a great find. Excellent condition and I like your beer can test technique. I'm guessing that works because a beer can is larger so it will register from a greater distance?

(And AARC, I'll have a pair ..... of beers, please and thank you!)

I’ve never dug a silver dollar, but always pass on the beer can signals. I guess I’m leaving some goodies behind for the next digger. Congrats on the beauty!

As soon as I saw it I thought man that barber looks even better than the one I just dug. Amazing! That thing is perfect (The liberty on the headband is the first thing I look for and the fine lines on the shield)

I wouldn't clean that at all. I lightly brushed the mud on mine under running water and kind of regret it. Now I'm not 100% sure if some of the fine marks came from the tooth brush or were already there. Probably a toothpick would have been a better approach.
