My first Barber dime!

[Icewing]

Finally after after digging the better part of a pound of silver (coins, and sterling) I went walking up an old road threw the woods thats now just a fourwheeler trail. I don't really even know what was there its just close to where i found some of my civil war relics. I saw a place where a trail shot off the main part of the old road up onto a small flat spot with a bunch of small trees and bang, I finally landed my first silver barber coin and only coin of the day. Why the barbers have been so elusive is beyond my understanding, but this week has been my best week of treasure hunting since I started a year and a half ago.

My first silver coin was a 1900 barber dime hunting at an old school with my son.
I can't read without glasses and he told me 1900. I kept asking him are you sure?
It was right next to a huge oak and I didn't get a clear hit. Almost didn't dig.

Anyway isn't fun to wonder how long that coin has been sitting there waiting for
you to dig it? Has that coin been sitting for 110 years or 50 years....
Maybe it was some kids allowance back in 1910 and he was headed to the store
to get some candy. Back in the good ole days when you could get more candy then you
can eat for 10 cents,

Hope you find a bunch more!

Congratulations on the Barber! My very first silver, and one of my first coins, was a 1894 Barber dime.

I just found my first Barber dime a few weeks ago, at the beach in the dry sand. I was surprised, I usually don't find old coins there, but it was 1900, worn, but not bad condition. Congratulations !
