Five Barber day

[mineslob]

I found myself today, out on the field. It was a mild sunny day in December, in good old Massachusetts. There I stood with my E-trac in one hand, and a nice steamy Cumberland Farms coffee in the other. As I stood there and took in the scenery I knew it was going to be a good day.

Aside from the five Barbers, one Merc, and one 1907 Canadian dime you can see in the photos, I found a nice bulky old silver spoon ring, a sliver thimble, two indian head pennies, a V nickel, Buffalo nickel, and about 20 wheaties. This was indeed a great day....

Awesome day!!! 5 Barbers. I grew up in Agawam and think about the grounds there and what I could find say at eastern states expo

 

[Chestdiesel]

Yup, this really happened. I was standing right there crying, rubbing my 1 merc and 1 rosie together to try and stay warm. Lol. Great digs bro, and great day. 2 bucket list nickels for me today as well.

Nice finds! I grew up in Monson until 8th grade. You hitting Forest Part or is that off limits? I remember playing in the Sporting News baseball tournament there in the late '70's. I think the ex MLB pitcher Mike Trombley was on our team(we lost the game he pitched, lol).

Congrats on a whole bunch of Silver

I'm in awe. So very cool. So, if you have a minute to add to your excellent morning's story, this interested newbie would love to hear what led you to such a productive site. Everything I read here makes it clear that the research or knowledge is what makes your efforts worthwhile, so the "how" of how you got there would be great.
