Great evening hunt

[Wallhangers]

Couldn't take it! The sun was shining and the itch was taking effect. Decided to try and locate a hidden homesite this evening and it was a success. Took my lucky charm, my daughter, with me and we proceeded to dig 3 IHP and a mercury dime. Took her home and then teamed up with a friend and headed back. I dug another IHP and a barber and my friend dug 2 IHP, 1887 & 1900 (not pictured). Here is a list and pics...

-1893 Fob of the Chicago World's Columbian Exposition
-Another H. Disston Saw Emblem, 3rd dug this year and the oldest (1850's)
-4 IHP, 1888 x2, 1875, 1891
-Mercury Dime 1916 plain (plow damage I presume)
-Barber Dime 1892 plain (almost a seated!)
-Ring
-Old pocket knife
-Broken Crotal bell
-Decorative buckle
-Whatsit? (Has designs on it that look like grape vines)

nice finds, look at the barber dime again, the date looks to be double stamped, im a newby so maby its just me?

 

[Wallhangers]

You are correct Dank, and I didn't look too close to it until you mentioned it. I used a magnifier and here is what it looks like. So what does that mean in value, anyone Here is the close-up...

[findstuf]

The "Whatsit?" looks like an older carb. gasket. is it copper?

 

[allen]

congrats on those great looking finds
and possibly a never before seen error
on that sweet barber dime...

 

[silverfreak]

Excellent hunt buddy. Good stuff

Some really good finds there, Wallhangers!

Love the 1893 Exposition FOB.

And you have a very interesting double-date stamped barber dime there.

Those are some really nice finds.

Funny about the barber. I dug a quarter a month or so ago right. And the words In God We Trust were doubled. Maybe someone can shed more light on the topic.

closest comparison i can find in red book, it 1893 barber dime with date stamp error and in g-4 condition its worth 140.00 bucks,
you should see what a coin collector says.
verry cool find.

 

[curbdiggercarl57]

Never heard of an 1892 Barber Error, nice, very nice.

 

[allen]

dank could be right on the 1893 over the 1892
but to be sure, have someone check it out...

 

[Wallhangers]

Just want to say thanks for all of you who respond to my posts. I don't say it much but I do appreciate the ID's that you help me with and the compliments of my finds. I enjoy all of your posts as well. I am pretty excited this year because I have surpassed some of my finds already and the season just started.

Nice haul, Mark! You're really rakin' them in! Lots of cool relics for sure.
