    Another super nice Barber Dime

    Will post a summary of the complete hunt but I wanted to post a picture of a 2nd Barber Dime I found that has great detail. I have found a good number of Barber coins but none compare to the last 2 I have found. I wish they came out of the ground like this all the time. Wisconsin Digger
