TWO FIRSTS TODAY!!!!

[Clad the Impaler]

Taking tonight off of work....so I was able to do some sidewalk tear up hunting in the 'burbs w/ a few of my fellow Il section t-netters....after forgetting sunblock (my neck has a nasty owie now), I made up for it by digging my first ever harmonica reed and my first ever Barber dime!! It's an 1898. The dime is the oldest silver coin I've ever dug, and the second oldest coin I've found md'ing. Now to find a seated coin.... Pics below. Enjoy!!

Clad, i have been hunting for 11 years and have found what seems like hundreds of
harmonica reeds, all kinds of nice old coins but i am yet to find a Barber dime.
Congratulations on the dime you dirty dog.

Good going, Clad! There's only one thing wrong: that dime is in your pouch instead of mine. Guess I gotta work harder.

 

[BuckleBoy]

Sure signs that old coins are on their way into your finds pouch: flat buttons, suspender clips, toe taps, and harmonica reeds.
