I just can't seem to leave those fairgrounds alone and tonight it paid off! I have had a curse on me about not being able to dig a dang barber dime! The curse has been lifted!!!!!!!!! The icebreaker was about 9 inches down and standing right on edge, thats how I pulled it out of the hole, I kinda figuired thatas the signal was real tight and scratchy. I also nailed a silver rosie 1957 and a 1904 indian which makes 53 indians this year so far. Four nice wheaties also added wieght to my apron tonight, a 44 two 46's and a 20something. the strang find for the evening was a medalion that looks kinda religious, I have no idea what it is, but I like it lol. Hope yer all out enjoying the weather!

It was just a matter of time, now if I can nail one of those two centers or three centers, I will be happy. I tried to call you back tonight but was tied up for a bit. Talk to you again soon!

Congrats on the barber, is it a 1911? A little worn but if you can read the date thats
cool in my book. 53rd Indian, good deal. Great finds!

Good luck,
HH.

Congrats Jack!
You are killing me! I am bugging Tim every time I see one of your posts! Still waiting for my procoil.
Can't wait to get it in our old fairgrounds.

Sweet Barber. Glad you broke that curse.

Congrats on the first Barber Dime Jack. Many more to come I'm sure. Lot of key date Barbers out there in the ground too. I found a few over the years. Hey, my best year on Indian heads was 134. Thats with a wife and kids holding me back. I'm sure with your area and free time you'll be nabbing over 200 next year. The explorer loves Indian heads. Jim
