I had a goal to find my first barber coin and started detecting a local park near my house. I walked over to where there is an old sidewalk and started digging up a bunch of wheats all 1913, so I thought "oh cool, maybe there is some old money here" lol. Then I dug up a 1916 buffalo at the base of a pine tree. I was getting pretty excited because I thought maybe I would be able to reach my goal of getting a barber. I walked over to the sidewalk and got a very faint high signal and dug down in excitement and out popped a 1902 "s" barber dime... Well I had to leave, but I was pretty pumped up lol I told my wife that day I wanted to find my first v nickel, so I went back the next morning and what do ya know... my first coin was this "v" nickel. Sorry for the pics I have to use the laptop camera lol The back of the nickel is toasted, but at least the front is legible.
