1898 Barber Qtr (8 pics)

[The Beep Goes On]

I went to a job/career seminar this morning and it happened to be near Memorial Park (Houston). I had my gear in the car so after the meeting I drove over and started into the woods...

I ran into a deserted hobo homestead...what a mess. The day was beautiful otherwise; cool and no bugs.

These finds are from today and another Memorial hunt I did the other day. The Barber, bracelet ("Tracy") and tent stake (~1917 from Camp Logan days) were found today along with a few of the other items. Silver is pretty rare in Memorial nowadays...it was at the base of a small tree...not too deep. It was happy dance time

These finds are from parks and sports fields...I haven't posted in a while since I hadn't found anything worth posting The ring with the big rock was a heart stopper, but is fake. There is a Sac in there too.

HH!

Nice finds! Some of that stuff would make a great display in a case to hang on the wall or such.
For the Barber Q. That is very exciting congrats.

Sweet quarter! I remember when those Speidel name bracelets were the hot thing! Everyone had one, including myself (yes the boys wore them too). I don't know what ever happened to mine.
