Finally found a coin worth something

[mobrigade]

I am a relic hunter by heart, and rarely "go" after coins, however, over the past couple of weeks I have the oppurtunity to hunt two prominent homes from the 1880s that was also the site of a skirmish during Marmeduke's 1863 raid. We found some bullets an eagle button, brass "junk," a naval cuff button (how'd that get there?), along with a total of 65 wheats, 22 Lincoln Mem, 5 Barber Dimes, 2 Barber Quarters, 1 half, 1 Sacajawea Dollar, 1 Morgan Dollar, several buffalos, 3 large cents, three mercs, and some rosies....anyway, I finally decided to actually look up some of the coins, they only one worth anything (financially, they are worth a lot to me regardless of value), its an 1895 "O" barber dime, that books at 365.00 in Good condition, this one I'd say is between good and very good. I will pos a pic tomorrow. Thanks,

Congratulations.

Barbers are always nice to find. No relic hunter would leave coins like those behind.

I know what you mean about the coins. I get all excited with a barber dime and then look up it's value - $4.

Well at least it's $4. An almost $400. coin is super. Congratulations.
