I’ve found my first real good silver today and an unknown button/token that I can’t find on internet no where. But funny thing is I spotted the barber with my eye laying on top of plowed ground ,1895-S 1C08DDE6-7308-4312-8D42-F28739F69AB2.png C85886CE-BEAC-4F57-B3D4-CDFEF1DC7E82.jpeg 19AAC3D1-636F-4492-81D4-E236DF88DBC2.jpeg image.jpg does anyone know what that is ?

Its the top of a 2 piece 20th C blazer/fashion button, copying an earlier rare type.

Congrats on your first Barber Quarter - in great condition with a 1800's date and a "S" mint mark to boot - pretty cool !

Excellent find - and looks to be "extra fine" condition to me. Also a better date 1895-S with a mintage of only 1,764,681 could retail in excess of $150, and if "graded & slabbed XF-40" as much as $250 - Yes indeed a "Great Find", my friend, for your FIRST Barber Quarter - It don't get any better than that - Good Luck and HH to everyone.........BILL.

Great eyeball find! I found my first Barber quarter laying in a creek. What was the ball laying next to it in the field?

Congrats on your first Barber Quarter. It's exciting to just walk up on a surface coin in the fields.
