Buffaloboy has gotten another cheap shave!

[BuffaloBoy]

Hey folks, I generally don't post my finds much anymore unless it is something unique or uncommon. Well, today was definitely an uncommon coin. I was going through a dime box and about halfway through popped out this ugly "beauty"... needless to say, I got myself a 10-cent shave! She's a little bent up, but i am glad I was able to gain possession of the 107 year old coin This is my second barber dime in roughly 1,000 dime boxes, and lately dimes have been terrible at well under a 1 per box average. Halves have been poor producers as of late also.
Thanks for looking,

Congrats on finding your second Barber! Still looking for my first Barber.

Nice find! Been a while now since I found anything really old. Silver is good but, finding a coin that is rare or over 100 years old is what I like the most about CRH.

Sweet find! My three dime boxes yesterday yielded 0 silver.

Barbers are always great to find. Hope you find more. I wonder if it was enough to pay for a shave back in 1907.

Congrats on your 2nd shave. Bent on not, that's a rare one to pull out of a roll.

shave a haircut was 2 bits. so...a shave could be had for a dime by account of my nursery rhyme logic.

Very nice my friend. 11 years older than my older CRH silver.

Awesome find! I've never found a barber dime. I would love to find one of those and you have found two. That's great.

I was very surprised to find my second ever barber dime. Whenever I find an old, worn looking silver edge I try to predict whether the coin will be a merc, Roosevelt dime or barber. I was almost certain that this was going to be a barber or at least a very well worn early mercury dime.
My first ever barber coin was a barber dime and it was an ender.
