Almost 1800s coin spill

it was another beautiful Saturday morning and Digger Don and I went to another of our towns to do some door knocking. It’s been getting a little lean in the mid west. But you know we’ve got to get out! Well lucky me I was first on the board. After first pulling a zinc penny at 6-7 inches I was already not “feeling” this yard but I had to give it a shot since Don picked it saying “this is the kind of yard we want.” Second signal was an Indian number at about 8 inches. I was sure it would be junk or a zinc again. That was until I saw a black disc in the hole with a silver rim! After seeing the one dime and going through the is it seated or barber ritual discovered I had an 1899 barber dime, oh yah. After closing the hole swept again and heard the sweet sound of silver clearly! I have no idea why the signal was so weird in the beginning. Anyhow I pulled out the 1900 barber quarter. 😁. Attachment 64982 The rest of the day was kind of slow but you can see I got a few more things. Not exactly like finding what Digger Daddy finds in Germany but it was a fun day.

A 2 barber day is awesome! Been a long time since I had a 1 barber day. Congrats!

Congrats Noah! You could definitely say this coin spill was 19th century! Don called me and was complaining about all your awesome finds. Lol. Just kidding.

That heel plate is in good condition :envious:
Congrats on the wonderful coins as well!

Pretty good hunt in my book! Still looking for my heel plate. When I do, I sure hope it's as nice as yours!

That is a great heel plate. The silver and green aint to bad either. Nice hunt.

Barbers and Indians....a beautiful sight! Congrats! :beerbuddy:

Thanks everyone. I sure love our hobby. Just wish I could break outta the 1800s once in a while. Not complaining though. Barber are awesome ��

Noah, come out our way and your Northeast compadres will make sure you break out of the 1800's. Great hunting and the heel plate is in great shape....:thumbsup01:

Thanks. Would love it to meet some of you all and experience the colonial hunt. Even a buckle or button from colonial period would be awesome! I'll have to see if my partner in crime Don is able to make it too. Great to hang out with those who appreciate our history. :)

comgrats pn all the nice finds. 2 Barbers in 1 day is indeed a good day. Congrats WD

Didn't expect recognition for the heal plate. Thanks!!
