Well I went back to the street tearout for quick hunt , earlier today that they moved dirt around so I went before it got dark, first was a skeleton key , then a unknown button then I got a 26/27 signal and out pops a can ,dang then other can. Again I get a 27/28 signal and I though here comes another freaking can , but no I see a black disc and I'm thinking dang washer as I wipe it down I see letters and I said omg I just found my first barber quarter , yes bucket lister.

It sure looks like a great place to hunt. Pretty soon it will all be paved over. You might ask where they are dumping the waste dirt. You might try the piles there also. Good luck on more!!!
 
That coin has had a rough life, up until now. You saved it!
 
They're not hauling dirt away reuse the dirt and spread it out

I love when they do the some of the work for you!!! They have been scraping the roads around here for repaving, and bringing in road fill. It’s a great time to detect!!!
 
Barber Quarters are such a sweet tone.
Congratulations on your bucket lister.
 
Going back this evening
 
THE KEY has a nice color to it brass or bronze, copper maybe might need a hammer to fix that coin looks like a fun day congrats
 
The best thing about that quarter, is it’s beat to hell....
And it is fantastic.
 
Great save, she may not be perfect but I would take her to the dance!
 
"Firsts" are the most special! Display that guy proudly!:icon_thumleft:
