Junk..Junk..Silver

[Obie1]

Hey everyone,

On Saturday, went out for a short hunt before I had to go to a wedding. Was searching an old school yard where the school is no longer. Kept getting old copper pipe pieces and aluminum rivet heads for about an hour, also weather was on and off drizzle. Well I was just about ready to leave and did what everybody does and went 5-10 more feet. 10-43 and 12-45 signal hit and was only about 3-4 inches down. I figured it was another rivet head, but dug it and out rolled a silver rim to a coin and caked with dirt in the center. Got excited and even more when I saw a partial design on the back and 1907 on the front. Didn't clean it off until I got home it was 3:00pm, only had about 20 mins to race home clean up and and leave to make a wedding at 4:00 about 25 mins away. But any way I cleaned it off and it was a Barber dime! I have been on the hunt for a barber since I got the ET and watching all of you find them for about 5 months now. Sorry no picture but I'll get it on here.

Thanks for reading and HH,

Obie

Congratulations on the Barber! Looking forward to seeing it. Isn't great how something so small and old can put a lasting smile on your face? Thanks for posting.
