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" ;D
