Two firsts for me ~ $10 GOLD COIN & BARBER HALF! WOOHOO!!!!

My son & I received permission to detect around a 1904 house in the small town of Dorena Oregon today. After only digging a couple targets I dug a 1868 $10 Gold coin! Then just inches away in the same hole I found a 1912-S Barber Half dollar. But then we detected for three more hours and didn't find anything else old.
