Ninth and Tenth Barber Dimes...

[Cornstar]

I was out of town K9 training for a week, and I finally found a couple hours to go swingin' today. I went back to the old park that I've pounded hard, not expecting much because the ground is so dry.

I started out with a clad dime, a memorial, and then hit these three, all at around 6-7 inches. My 9th and 10th Barber dimes, and a bonus V nickel.

If dry ground affects the depth much, ya can't prove it by me...[attachimg=1][attachimg=2]

:shocked04: Now this is a beautiful bunch of keepers. :clapping:

A big congrats on your 9th and 10th. :smitten: The V is sweet too.

I'd spend much more time at this park if I were you. :yes: You squeaked these nice ones... there's got to be more. :->

Congrats on the Barbers, it just goes to show you its never hunted out. WTG |:cheering: I also believe the moist ground gives more depth but I heard that dry ground helps to separate targets especially if there is iron on the ground.

Oh nice! :drool: :clapping:
Sweet finds!
Congrats! :grin:

I've heard the same thing....and have found it to be true at times. :yes:

Very nice finds, keep hitting that park! I too think the dry ground reduces halo effect on targets and improves target separation.

QUESTION, do you just not post the mercs you find, or do you not find any?

 

[Cornstar]

I don't find 'em...only one so far. No silver rosies, either. Seems like the only dimes I get are Barbers and Seateds...but I'm not complaining.

Excellent pics!!! Great looking bunch of coins. Congrats and Happy Hunting!!

Maybe your are going too fast and Barbers dimes are a harder pressed silver so they ring harder? IDK, thats strange that you hardly find any ages inbetweeen
