BARBER QUARTER, FINALLY

[PACO]

THIS IS PACO, I GOT OUT TO OUR FARM TODAY WITH KIRK AND THE ZOYMAN. OUR COLONIAL FIELD IS JUST GETTING TO OVER GROWN WITH CORN STALKS AND HIGH WEEDS. SO WE DECIDED TO TAKE A CHANCE AND WONDER THROUGH SOME HIGH GRASS MEDOWS. I HAVE GOT 2 HAND FULLS OF SILVER COINS FROM AN 1842 SEATED LIBERTY DOLLAR ON UP TO THE BORING ROSIE DIMES. BUT ONE COIN ON THE LIST THAT HAS ELUDED ME WAS THE BARBER QUARTER. KIRK, ZOYBOY, AND I ALL ARE GETTING COLONIALS, HALF CENTS, DRAPED AND CAPPED BUST COPPERS. I KEPT TELLING THOSE GUYS THESE FINDS ARE GREAT BUT I WANT A BARBER QUARTER!!!! UNTIL TODAY I NEARLY SH#T MY PANTS.
I GOT A READING OF 86 VDI ON MY MXT. I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE A CONNETICUT COPPER OR A LARGE 1700`S BUTTON. BUT BEFORE I DUG IT I WAS GETTING A CHOPPY LOW TONE ON MY MIXED MODE 2 TONE AUDIO MEANING IRON TARGET. BUT THEN I TURNED 90 DEGREES AND THE AND GOT THE HIGH TONE, 86 VDI. I THEN DUG THE PLUG AT 6in. AND GOT THE BARBER QUARTER I HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR. I LOOKED BACK DOWN INTO THE PLUG AND THERE WAS A HUNK OF A BROKEN IRON FARM BOLT 2 INCHES BELOW WHERE THE QUARTER SAT. I WAIVED MY COIL BACK OVER THE PLUG AND GOT THE LOW TONE BACK AT A MINUS -46 VDI...TO MY SURPRISE IT MASKED THE IRON TARGET AND ALLOWED THE SILVER TO COME THRU.............
THANKS PACO.............

Very nice Barber you have there, PACO!! Congrats to you. Out of all my silver this year, I've only found 3 of those babies. Hope your next BQ is a 1913S.

Nice job on the Barber! With all the old stuff you guys find, I'm surprised it was still on your list.

Thanks Kirk, "Master Whites Dude". BQs are really tough finds over here. I think only 1 person has found one on our forum in the past 2 months. I will be going out for a hunt tomorrow.

Nice Barber!

Show that quarter to some regular people. It puzzles them. Most folks have never seen one before.

Congratulations on the beautiful Barber coinage!
