Met up with Park Pirate in one of our favorite city parks this morning. He already had a mercury dime in his pouch. One of my first targets of the morning turned out to be this 1907-O Barber half dollar. First silver half I've dug in years.

Beautiful Barber Half Ed, how did she clean up? :icon_scratch:
Dave
Not too bad. A little rim nick and the reverse showed a lot more wear. I'll take it. Last Barber half I dug was in 2008 !
