Got out this AM for a 3 hour hunt. I went to the park that Rob and I have been going to. I told myself that I was only going to hunt on the hill. After about 2 hours I had some clad and 1 merc. happydance02 Alright enough of the hill, down to the flats. First signal was a merc :happydance01:, then about ten minutes after that the Barber half. <: <: Now heres the strange part. I have only dug 2 Barber halfs in my detecting time and what are the odds that both of them would be the same date and mint mark. Mercs were 1943D and 1942, the Barber half was 1894S.

Managed one wheat but I haven't got the date off of it yet.

Thanks for reading

Now we're talkin'! Woo hoo! :wow:

Awesome Barber Half, Al! That's another coin that's on my bucket list! What a spectacular find! I have found 9 Walking Liberty Halves but never a Barber.

Quite a coincidence that both of yours were the same year and mint mark! :yes:

Congrats on the terrific day! <:
