Out for a few hours dancing between the raindrops at a favorite site. 08 Barber, 26D, 39, 47S, 50S wheats. Interesting the colors on the pennies.

Yeah, those barber quarters don't show up much. Four wheats, four colors. I can understand why that's a favorite site, keep it up!

Pennies found in same grassy area within 50 feet of each other. Yet each with a distinct coloration. Probably a number of environmental factors.

My grandpa used to call them "two bits."

It's always such a thrill to find a Barber Quarter! That was a lot of money back in the day. Awesome!

Great finds. In 1908, 25 cents represented about 1 hour of labor. Think how much you make in 1 hour at your job!
