MY 2nd Barber Q & my 2nd IH for the year + more / my oldest silver yet.

Today when I got home from the night job I wasn't feeling up to going out scouting around but I'm sure glad I did!!!! I bought a new HD video camera and was anxious to get out and try it. I was only out for 2 1/2 hours before it felt like I was under a magnifying glass so I cut it short but I'm going back Sunday morning with Silvergurl.

The Barber is my oldest silver coin yet and I'm on cloud 9 with it - even though its super worn (maybe someones good luck coin as it was found on the river bank). :icon_pirat:

Man i love this hobby. I like to take my time finding out what kind of silver coin i have found.
I will light up a cigarette and savor every moment of the process until i know what i have.
Great video.

Great Video, really like the music. I found a Hertz for you, not sure if it is the one for
the tag, but could be. Often those tags were used as cow tags, horse tags, even luggage tags.

John and Fannie Hertz were major figures in Thoroughbred horse racing. They owned a horse farm at Trout Valley near Cary, Illinois. John also had a Kentucky Derby winner. Might be worth looking into.

You got some real genuine keepers there, especially that old farm tag (Highly Collectible Piece). I would hunt that spot dusk till dawn if time permits. Good viedo, good hunt, good finds. Nothing better than that. :headbang:

Thanks guys, I got a Sony "Webie", its a lower end HD cam used for like youtube videos but it took awesome video shots. It can shoot in 1080p 720p or standard cam and it does both 16:9 & 4:3 (widescreen and standard) and it shoots 5mp pix. Bestbuy has them for $200, on-line orders only and it has free shipping. I figured I better just get a cheaper cam as my other one is getting messed up from all the dirt and crud out in the woods.
