Sweet little pocket spill

Spent the morning hiking through some very, very rough terrain with little to show for it...not a single coin, despite walking over two miles. It happens.

Pulled out and hit a way, way too obvious park...need to unstress and needed open space to find all the brambles I'd been impaled by. Just a few minutes in and get a nice penny ID right up against a root...instead pulled a 1910-D barber dime. Not to far away I dug up a sweet little pocket spill, 4 wheats (1912-1944) and a merc.

Just amazed at the silver in worked over parks in 2K8...sure not as good as the "old days" by it's STILL out there.

Great find. I haven't found a silver coin since 2006. If I ever find a Barber, I'll need new underwear.

Sorry to hear about lack of silver out west there...sort of like I wish for old coppers...do find large cents here, but not the older colonial stuff of the east.

This barber sort of surprised me though, near by parks have produced barbers in the past, but this one only rosies, I had considered it to be a newer build than some of the others, but a merc and a barber...too weird. Maybe need to rethink the history of some of these places.
