I Average One of These Every 8 Years!...Wow!

[Cool Hand Fluke]

I never expected what happened today! In 33 years of metal detecting I dug up my 4th Barber Half Dollar today! Hunting the front of a high school in a large slopped grass area only 5 inches
deep I dug out a 1910-S barber half! I think my eyes were as big a saucers when I saw the eagle on the back!

The icing on the cake were the two silver dimes I also dug. One was a merc missing
1/3 due to a lawnmower hit, the other was a 1947 rosie. 7 wheat pennies and a total of 95 coins made for an awesome day!

The cut dime seems awfully clean. Looks more deliberate than a mower. Perhaps someone owed 3 or 4 cents. Hmmm LOL
