80th YTD silver is a semi key date

[Fire Fighter 43]

The grove did not disapoint me again. I found my 80th silver coin for the year and it was a good one. It is an 1894-O barber dime. I would grade it at VG-8 and the Coin World value guide puts it at $100, not bad. I also found an 1888 Indian and 2 wheats from the teens.
The dime was a great find but I did not know what I had at the time I dug it but I think I topped the dime find. I dug a copper arrow head from the Old Copper Culture. It is an American Indian point and it was probably used as a spear point. the Old Copper Culture started around 4000 BC in Wisconsin. You can check out the details about the Copper Culture and the point in the relic section.

mg: WTG on getting a semi-key Barber. I know how hard it is to get a semi-key or key date coin. They jut don't show up that often, maybe that's why their key dates. :hysterical: I saw your point in relic section, now thats a great find. Thats what I would call a full day of successful hunting.
