Awesome finds. I have yet to find a barber coin. Crazy so anytime I c someone finding one which is all the time I get jealous. Haha no but I wonder when mine is gonna come. The has valve is sweet I just found one the other day as well. They r the old Victorian light gas valves. Here's the one I found.. They r worth about 10-15 bucks and r sold on eBay all the time. Thanks for posting!

Thanks everyone, I cleaned up the Barber a bit and it really is in good shape. You can see all the details, it has some damage above the E but who cares! I'm really happy with it. I've been detecting for about a year or so and it's my first Barber. I've only found one other silver coin and it was a Roosevelt. I also got my first Indian head but it was pretty toasted. Looking forward to another hunt on Tuesday...

I hope u didn't scrap em yet. Brass n copper fetches a nice premium but no where near what a collector gives ya.. If it's old there's a collector for it. Btw ur running totals r pretty amazing, I could only imagine. Must have had some great sites.
