BH Sharp Shooter
I hunted four about an hour and had not found much a clad quarter and a dime. The next target was bouncing between iron and a dime signal I decided to go ahead and dig. I got a nail about about 4 in then scanned the hole again and it read dime every time on the BH. I dug about another 2 inches and it was out of the hole I saw the rim in the dirt and knew it was silver. The next thing I saw was 1916 I was hoping it was a Merc took it over to a puddle and washed it and to my surprise it was a barber. I could not believe it my first Barber and it is in great condition. I also found a little pewter something I hit it with the digger from the same area I will definitely be back.

Hey Rich!
Way to go on the Barber! That one is in sweet condition! Great one for a first!

Be careful though, every picture the coin is getting smaller! That thing could be a halfdime in a week or so.

Congrats!
Mark
