1901 S Barber Quarter. KEY :)

[McClod]

Wow, what a great find! I think I need to do more hunting East of Oregon! Good luck and positive thoughts sent out for you. I'd simply be thrilled with finding my 1st Barber quarter! Now I know what I will be looking at when I do finally find 1 haha, found my 1st Barber dimes (2 in less than 2 weeks) after 1.5 years of detecting and was totally thrilled so I can only imagine how you must feel!

Laplander, now you got my curiosity going with your mention of "not wanting a Jimmy Sierra ending" lol, I don't know enough about the man so tried googling it...

 

[INSAYN]

Yeah, I didn't get the Jimmy Sierra reference either, and I Googled it and looks like he had a hoard of coins stolen.

 

[McClod]

Glad I wasn't the only one, that sucks to have something like that happen!!! Too bad!

Best wishes for you on the grading.
Who did you send it to for grading?

Today I dug a 1903 S Dime in good shape ...can read Liberty clearly with lines....but it has a small dent in the side...not by me! I think it adds character!

See dim at California Metal Detecting

Sent the quarter in to get graded! Fingers crossed. Think good thoughts about positive grades ! Merry Chistmas!

Jimmy Sierra found a Spanish treasure and displayed in his house and word got around and it was stolen!

Congrats! I saw it on FB, but you deserve more. Will you be dealing with Ian Russel the next time something like this comes around?

 

[GKMan]

Cool deal Dr. Have you heard of anyone else digging one of those?

 

["Dr.Tones"]

Doing business with Ian was a pleasure. Everything was taken care of. I would like to see an extended bid in the furure though. For instance, if the action ends at 8:01 and it gets a last minute bid, I think it should have to go three minutes without another bid until the auction closes. I think I would have had more bidders if that was the case. I have heard of one other guy that dug one a few years back but his was pretty beat up
