Hope you do realize that if you purchase a metal detector, your life will be altered by the best thing since sliced bread.Almost guaranteed. This old farm has been here since the early 1890’s. I’m going to look for a cheap metal detector.
Thank you so much for the information. I am totally clueless on metal detectors. Figured I would start with a used one. I’ll be looking for a Nokta.Best cheap Detector in my opinion is Nokta Makro Simplex, runs about $250-300 depending on where you get it. I think theres some suppliers on here who have it for 250.00 free shipping (at least they did several months ago). https://www.noktadetectors.com/metal-detector/simplex-metal-detector/
It literally has more features than my old Garrett AT Pro i paid $600 for several years ago.
Nice score on the barber!
Used to be that was the way to go, but you'd pay more for a used lesser machine tham the Simplex. Bang for the buck has never been so affordable.Thank you so much for the information. I am totally clueless on metal detectors. Figured I would start with a used one. I’ll be looking for a Nokta.
Good pointYe

Thank you very much silvermonkey.Not just a 1900 Barber....Not just a 1900 Barber half dollar...But a 1900 Barber half dollar with an "O" mint mark. That is Faaaaaantastic! I'm with everyone else...I would scour that area with a detector. You just may find a few more ( maybe many more)old beautiful silver coins. Big congrats DDL!
oh my, Barber half! Still looking for my first. Well played!
There are lots of great machines out there. The first one I bought was a Simplex. Found a ton of stuff and learned a lot. I have since upgraded to the Legend, still learning. Have fun on your adventure.Thank you coinstar. I’m going to search for a metal detector.
