My first Barber!

[ringking76]

I've been MD for over 4 yrs and found some great coins and relics and Saturday I dug this Barber up. It's not my oldest coin but it's my oldest silver.I found it in a city that's only about 70 yrs old so I was surprised to get it.
It's rough but it's a beauty.

Neat first Barber!

This also is my 4th detecting year. My extremely worn fave coin dug last month is an 1888 V nickel dug close to the surface in high-ground beach area I'd detected many times before. Finally I'd broken into the 1800's, lol. Also confirmed my research that certain areas of beaches here have a few "oldies" emerging during months which have alternating extreme high & extreme low tides.

Have Fun! Andi

Congrats on your first Barber.

My very first silver was a Barber dime. I thought that I would be finding them regularly, little did I know that a year would pass before another one showed up! Best of luck to you in the field!

Nice Barber. Congrats on your first. Remember, the city may have only been 70 yrs. old, but the dirt has been there forever.
