Nice finds. Looks like someone was trying to put a hole in the center of the dime.

I meant to ask if anyone knew what that mark was, i think ive seen it on coins before, not so sure they were putting a hole in it though

Nice old lead and Barber! Congrats! :icon_thumleft: Does the mark on the Barber look or feel like a scratch or does it feel stamped?

Good day hunting! Watching an old, out of circulation silver come out of the ground is all you need to start the fever! Congratulations to you both!

I've seen that mark before, but have never really figured it out. I've theorized that it had something to do with a automatic coin roller, but that's a pretty wild guess.

Of the 5 Barber dimes that I've ever found one has that same marking, but I never knew why.
