A couple of Barbers

Made it out today much later than I wanted. :( At 10:00 this morning the temperature was well into the 80's and humid. :stretcher:

Last weekend I hunted a yard that gave up some nice keepers including some Barbers and IH's. While hunting that yard I couldn't help but notice
how promising the neighboring yard looked. So I tracked down the owner of the new yard and received permission to hunt.

I was able to pocket a few keepers before the heat won the battle.

A return trip to this site is top on my list... when the heat breaks a little.
 
Wow, nice job! :perfect10: Getting permission is a rare and beautiful thing to me! It's tough to cold call/knock when a person doesn't know you, and they have no clue what metal detecting means. I found that out first hand this morning.
 
Great job on the Barbers, especially the quarter! NICE! Those don't turn up too often and it is always sweet to find one! Congrats on the successful hunt in the heat!
 
Thanks everyone. I've been on a bit of a lucky streak lately... sure hope it continues.

Yeah, it is a hit or miss thing... I get all kinds of reactions ranging from someone that is so excited that I offer to bring my spare detector for them to use all the way to me wondering if they misunderstood my request to mean I would like to harvest one of their kidneys. lol
