Thanks to, MM, who lined up an old property! It didn't start out very well. The cow mafia showed up and it was extremely hot. Then we got bombarded with some kind of mysterious mega-transmission waves, that pulsed through the DFX and the Mighty Tesoro alike.

Here's my first Barber dime! MM found some old coins too, and a really cool relic with an eagle on it. He has all the photos. ;)

Congratulations! Those Barber coins are great! Guess you owe MM one. ;D

Bob,
You can say that again!!! Every time I take Ridley with me he finds all the good stuff. It just ain't right! :'( :'( :'(
I just feel bad for him everytime I see him on a street corner with that "change please" sign and bucket. ;D

Ridley (Dave),
Congrats today Dude. After the attack of the cows and flies, you earned it. What a cool find! I'm glad you had a good time.
What was the writing on that pin piece you found in the photo?
Nice Barber!

Thanks, Doug!
That was a blast! I never thought I'd find a Barber coin! The word on the pin makes no sense. That's why we couldn't read it. It spells....
...RETURNIE

Anyway. Thanks again for a most excellent and entertaining day!

Is that a pistol cylinder, or a toy ? I assume a toy with those little tabs in the holes ?
