First Barber dime at an old plantation site in Nashville TN

[Mike N Tn.]

I dug my first Barber dime on a short hunt at an old plantation site in Nashville Tennessee today. On my first swing over the target the minelab E-trac gave a choppy whine and after that the item sounded like a nail. After digging about five inches the item started sounding good from one direction. At ten inches, out popped my first Barber dime after hunting for 20 years. This site was “hunted out” basically. I had given up on finding anything today and was walking back to the truck but something told me to not give up and so I walked over to an area that had given up some Civil War bullets and old coins in the past. Glad I listened to that small voice.

Someone else posted their first-ever Barber dime within an hour of yours- big time Congrats! It's also a better date, only 720K minted and worth some $.

Yup, nice semi-key date/mint mark Barber! Too bad it wasn't a "S" mint.....you could have retired!
