The Barber is not a barber but a V nickle, it is pretty worn slick but still has a date of 1899. Dateless Buff, Merc and a War nickle. total screw up on my part, just had a shot in my eye the day before and had vision problems plus was on muscle relaxers for lower back. feel like an idiot now

Nice finds DL, Congrats! The top pics look like a "V" nickel.
 
It is a V nickel!

What’s the deal man? You trying to sneak that nickel by, as a dime? Busted!
 
Very Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 
Man dirt you smoked my today Which isn’t saying much does anybody with two Wheaties would’ve beat me, but you smoked me :laughing

Congratulations
 
Congrats on a super hunt. Nice saves and that Barber V nickel is the best. lol.
 
I'll take that silver any day. Nice finds!
 
Worn, but still beautiful. Nice saves.
 
Nice old coin shooting! :occasion14:
 
Those coins are worn, but they show no corrosion. Nice hunt!
 
Very nice coins DL. At the very least, you would need one more V nickel to make a Barber dime !
 
hey I was Tired, saw the V and it never registered. just got a shot in my eye and it was really bothering me. The muscle relaxers didn't help either. That was the nicest Buff even with out the date, usually they look really rough here. There is an art to seeing and not seeing the obvious LOL. Been fighting a very bad lower back for about three weeks, you know how it is, you feel a little bit better and you go anyways only to pay for it. and I was more interested in the multiple stamped penny, hadn't seen one like that before. yeah, it was a major DUH for me.

I feel like an idiot. Actually I don't do the pictures or attach them to the posts, my wife does that part. I struggle with how to do it, mainly remembering what you have to do so she does them all for me. I had the coins separate and she did her thing. I totally failed to do mine. At the time I really didn't care, just wanted it done. my eye felt like it had broken glass in it from the shot that I had the day before and so I wasn't really looking at much. and no, it is a lot bigger than a dime. guess you had to have been there. Today I can see better but still feel like an idiot. I feel like the guy that shoots a basket at the wrong end and makes it for the other team. Duh
 
Awesome finds can you hook me up with some of those shots for my next hunt lol
 
Nice finds DL. Congrats
 
Nice handful of old coins! I wish my nickels popped out shiny like yours. Sweet and congrats!
