Found my share of silver halves over the years but they were all walkers and Franklins. This is my third Barber half this year to go along with the seated half I pulled up last month.:occasion14: I almost hate to see this year come to an end.:laughing7:

It was a pretty signal. And I did a pretty good job of getting it out of the ground this time without scratching or dinging it.:icon_thumright: She's a bit tarnished and a bit warn but still a beauty in my eyes!

Today's find...

Any half is a great find, but a Barber is just special. Congrats!

Great find. Might be my personal favorite one to find. There's still about 80 days or so left in the year- go find another one! Best of luck.

That's a wonderful find - I've only dug Barber dimes of the series thus far - I'm thinking of how
exciting it will be to get my quarter and half ( and a Seated Liberty of any denomination)

Still waiting for my first barber coin. I'll be thinking of this while digging today. Insperational!
