    Cold out, but had to goooo. The chauffeurs badge was a welcome surprise. Barber dime was last house, built 1830s. Only silver coin of the day for me. Last find for me was my first coin ring. Name:  0F18AB28-D572-47CA-9B43-36A278326DAA.jpg

    Nice looking Barber, and the badge is a great find! The coin ring is really cool too. Like Bucknut said, they are rarely found. I've only gotten one, and it was a foreign coin, 1943 if I remember.

    Excellent finds and congrats on the badge! Very cool. Maybe with some research you can locate the name of the original owner. That kinda stuff would be good to do during the long, cold winter.
