This hobby can get your blood going especially when you see the silver rim of a coin in the hole. Did you find that Barber in Florida? Regardless, still of nice chunk of silver. Way to go on the roll you've been on lately. Hope you find a bunch more :headbang:

That is a great find. I think 1892 was the first year for the Barbers---that might be worth a little money especiall with the S mint mark.

That silver is a key date in the barber quarter series! Worth at least $30 in G-4. Congrats!

Yes!! I love your story man, and your excitement! It really illustrates why we all do this. Such a simple thing, a little silver coin, but SO MUCH more than that! Keep up the good work, and great job checking out those random patches of turf. That's a great looking quarter!

28 dollars in G-4 condition. Good find
