My best barber found in my yard

[Gierbitz]

A few days ago i found this 1908 barber dime in my front yard. Im newer to coin collecting so im not sure of grade/condition of this coin, but it looks to me to have been dropped not long after being minted.

ps , yes i cleaned it. I know some people wont like that but i dont care

Thanks for looking !

Wonderful coin. I usually give my silver a bath in baking soda with the aluminum foil trick. I'm not selling any of them so whatever works.

You cleaned it...it was worth about 5000, now around 2 dollars..

No but really, that is a sharp looking coin...Ive only found 1 barber dime EVER, and the thing was so freakin smooth, it was barely recongized as a coin.

Great find man...I would be picking that yard apart!!

Man that's a beauty Gierbitz. I'm still waiting for my first barber coin of any denomination. I think I'll try my front yard...

Thanks everybody. I've pounded this yard for a little over a year but every once in a while something new pops out of the soil.
