Tough hunt, but managed silver and Wheats

This afternoon I made it out for some much needed hunting. I decided to try and locate an old sledding hill that Angie (Epi-Hunter) had suggested I check out. Unfortunately almost the entire area was frozen solid. Found just a little bit of thawed ground away from the sledding hill and worked up a '41 Wheat Cent along with the 1922 Iowa Wholesale Assn. Pin.

Decided to look for softer ground at a near by park and was happy to finally find a nice big section of soft dirt. :smitten:
Six more Wheats and a very deep Barber worked their way under my coil. :happydance01:

Hope you all have great luck this weekend. thumbsup01
 
Nice hunt Joe! :happydance01: Too bad about the frozen ground though. :huh: That place likely has much potential. :yes:
 
:perfect10:! Beautiful Barber :clapping: And other finds! The pin looks like it might be silver. Anything on the back? Congrats on a great hunt! WTG!
 
It's good to hear you were able to get out and do a little diggin' Joe! thumbsup01
And it looks like you had a good time while doin' it! :clapping: :yes:
It sure looks like the spot Angie turned you on to has some really good potential too! :yes: :daydream:
Another Barber huh? 8/ Nice :cheesysmile: :envious:
Congrats! :grin:

:thinkingabout: I was thinkin' the same thing! :yes:
Inquiring minds want to know....Joe lol :->
 
nice finds as always love them barbers but i have to say that pin is a nice little find also way to go good hunting dennis
 
Great hunt, Joe! A hunt-saving Barber is better than a hunt-saving Merc any day! :yes: :smitten:

I'm glad that you were able to get out and hunt. I hope that Barber Dime cured your cabin fever! thumbsup01
 
Joe, nice hunting. Love the Barber dime. That is the one coin, amongst many others that eluded me last year. Congrats on the finds
 
Hi Joe... I love that pin!!!

I am sorry most of the sledding hill area was frozen. crying01 But glad you came out with some beautiful silver and wheats at a nearby site anyway. Congratulations!
