First Barber, and LOOK at her!

[Kevo_DFX]

Hi all,

Was able to get out for a few hours yesterday. I wanted to hit the field next to where I found the large cent, but it was private property. So, I asked permission and the lady said "We've already got someone back there digging bottles, have at it."

Well, I was both happy and dismayed about this. Happy because if there's an old bottle dump there, there's bound to be coins. Dismayed because it's already on someone's radar and they may have got to it with metal detector. So, I went to the field and hit it for about an hour. From the amount of metal in the grouind, I don't think anyone has hit this. Lot's of targets, but only three coins. I'm gonna have to hit this site repeatedly. Two of the targets were pennies, a wheatie and a memorial, but the first coin was a new one for me. 1902 Barber Dime:

That's one sexy lady, huh? I didn't touch this coin with anything more than cold water.

This morning in Philly airport, also got a '63 Washington in change.

Thanks for looking,
Kevo

It's exciting to find the first Barber. I thought I would never find one and then bam. There it is. You got a sweet one too. Sounds like a great spot.
