1770's House Finally Gives Some Silver

Joe and I waited for the rain to subside,
and then we went at the site again.
There is a section of the fields that is
unplanted and used as a cattle run
between pastures. We hit that section
with little luck. Wasted a bit of time,
but at least now we know.
We used what little time we had left
and did a quick buzz through the side
yard. I was ecstatic to come away with
two nice buttons and my very first
Barber, a 1897 dime. All is well in my
book!!!














The "Grove Bros." button is from a local department
store that was open from 1905 until 1920. That little
sucker was 6.5 inches down.

That is a great looking Barber dime. Nice detail, nice date. That must have been fun to see in the dirt.

Thanks. It was!!! I thought it was a rosie,
and then it sank in. Yeee Haw!!!!

Very nice looking Barber dime, many that get dug don't have as much detail.

Nice Barber. Looks like a full "Liberty" in the headband.


Certainly a pretty coin.
