Big silver today - woo hoo!

[DirtFlipper]

The sun was out, but we had a breeze so still a bit chilly. I wanted to go revisit a spot that was farther away, but my wife insisted I stay closer and go to an old standby. Glad I listened!

Picked up a few Wheats, one Merc, and then finally got a tone that I thought would be another Wheat, maybe a dime. Flipped the dirt, tried the probe, and got a tone along the side. I removed a side slice, and saw a big silver rim sandwhiched in the dirt clump. I thought "no way!" I knew it was a half, so was already in shock, but when I broke open the dirt clump, I just about lost it when I realized it was a Barber. Packed it in cotton to bring it home.

What a great feeling. Love this hobby!

Nice finds. Love those big silvers. I use to live in New Ulm MN so I feel your pain of the hunting season coming to an end. In OK now so Ive got some more time to get out and hunt before the snow comes.

You gotta love that Barber series. Out of all the coins I find those are my faves. Found a crappy looking one (dime) today and keep looking at it.
