Not to bad of a weekend for finding old coins Saturday was wet and chilly rain all day but I was on a quest to find my barber normally I'll find between 10-15 barbers per season finally today was the day and it was deep 10 11 inches down my finds for the weekend are 1893-S barber dime Sunday was the SLQ dateless to bad its in very nice shape I'm assuming it's an early one also 4 wheats and a calendar pen dated 1954...

Nice finds Tony! That SLQ looks like it has a "3" popping through, so I'd say it's a 23. The Barber is awesome also. Congrats my friend!

SLQ's are one of those coins that don't show up very often! Nice find! If that barber dime was one year newer (1894-S) you would be a millionaire!

Nice job Pirate. The silvers are nice, but I really like that Calendar Pen. You dont see those dug up very often.
