My first barber dime

[AirForce1 (Ret.)]

Ventured to a town called Carrizozo, NM today (about 50 miles from where I live) and went to the town park there. First thing I dug out was a 1903 barber dime!! Kind of knelt there in shock for a few seconds thinking "no way" to myself, then realized the metal detecting gods were being nice to me today. This is the first barber coin that I have found. But Mother Nature was not being kind and about 45 minutes into the hunt sent a storm my way and washed me out. Oh well, it's cool......as Arnold once said....."I'll be back"

In NM, maybe you'll get on some Spanish silver too

Nice find. If mother nature had really been cruel she would have rained you out before the hunt.

Did you clean it?

Sweet looking dime.

Friday before last I found my first merc, 1917, it was the first coin I dug that day(couldn't believe it either,) went on to find a 46' rosie, and a 43' washington. Haven't got a barber yet, and it looks in fairly good shape, much better than my merc.

Good luck,
HH.

It is always nice to find a first. I can remember the exact spot that I found my first Barber Dime and last month I found my first Barber Quarter...now I just need the half. Keep at it and there will be more to come.

Congratulations
