I returned to the vacant 1860 farmhouse that I have permission to hunt. The last time there I got the 1886 era counterfeit Morgan dollar, 1852 LC, and some other cool goodies. I only had about an hour or so to hunt this time and only managed to make about 2 passes across the large front yard. But it was a productive 2 passes!! You can see in the video that it was for the most part a solid high tone with good numbers. This is the 2nd Barber half I've dug from this front yard this year. I have both on full digs on my YouTube channel - Ohio Digger.

Beautiful coin. That is one on my bucket list. Congrats!!!

Thanks! I know there has to be seated coins there. It's driving me nuts that I haven't found any yet. I've dug 2 1852 LC but no silver from that time period. Maybe it's too deep for the stock coil?? Do you use the WOT on the Etrac? How do you like it? Looking at one of those or at least the 13" Ultimate.
