F75 LTD, 1280X Aquanaut, & a Patriot (back-up/loaner)
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Last year was the year of the Indian Head for me and it seems like this year may be the year of the Barber.

I started out on an older property this morning. I pulled 5 wheats 1920, 25, 44, 47, & 51. With about 10 minutes to go on this time limited permission I pulled an 1895 Barber. :headbang: I also dug a Captain Midnight decoder from 1949. :thumbsup: Can you believe it, it sleeted for about 30 minutes during this hunt. What's up with this weather??????

I then went to a newer township park and only pulled 2 dimes and some trash. Went back to town and hit a curb strip and got 5 pennies, then went by the firehouse and pulled a the good luck token, and then knocked on another door of a trashy old dilapidated house in town. I got permission from Charlie to hunt the front yard. Not much there, pulled 28 cents and part of a silver plated spoon.

Congrats on another great hunt. I've only found two Barber's since I've been detecting and you have found two in a few days. Nice job[emoji106]

The only Barber I like seeing... nice pull Loco. That Five sided nut you got there is similar to ones I dig. Mine have turned out to be from old tire valve stems, some from Model T's. Not sure if thats what you got or not.



I reckon not, now that I looked closer at it on a larger screen...it too big for those.

What you found is not just another Barber, but a Barber QUARTER. They come up a lot less than the Barber dimes. Nice going!
 

Great job on the Barber Loco. I was out Sunday morning & pulled 2 Barber dimes from an old homestead. Cant get enough of that great looking coin.
 

Killer hunt my man! Congrats on that really nice Barber!
 

Very cool finds, my favorite is the decoder, sweet!
