I decided to get out for a few more hours today. This property is kind of small. One of the first targets I had was the Barber Dime. It was a welcome site indeed! Later after a few wheaties, I dug an iffy signal and out popped the Indian head cent. At one point, I had a great signal that I dug hoping to see another silver but instead was rewarded with a 1972 kennedy half. I did not realize the Barber dime was a key date until I got home and cleaned things up. Too bad there is no liberty left on it, but I'm perfectly fine with it regardless.
Heres the rundown:
1897-O dime
1898 Indian
1916-D wheaty
1925-D wheaty Johnny 8)
