I dug my first Barber dime this week!
I hadn't ever held one before!
Not in great shape, but oh well...!

Congrats on your first Barber dime! I remember when I found my first one, and exactly where I dug it. Mine was a 1892 (almost seated). It was worn as flat as can be and I could barely make out the date. At least yours has some nice detail, and it will probably clean up really nice. Does it have a mint-mark?
 

Congratulations on a superior find!:headbang::hello2:

Ah, no mint mark, so as a "plain", see...?

it's quite common over the other varieties of it....
Yeah, I remember each and every place, where I found my
old coins AND most sites where they were recovered.
Places to return again, sometime - its never hunted-out!
 

Congrats! A barber is good any day!
 

It took me quite awhile to find one! Congrats!
 

rejoice? Heck yeah! way to go!
 

Congrats on your first Barber ! It actually is in pretty good shape for a Barber coin that old.

Yeah, with zoomed-in a bunch, you can see the letters of LIBERTY. Haven't looked in my Red Book, but....COOL, the coin will go to my grandkids!
THEY can fight over who gets what...! :laughing7:
 

One of many. Congratulations :icon_thumright:
