Terrific finds! I love that Barber Dime, very sharp! My E-Trac seems to be very good at finding deep dimes too, but I've yet to find a Barber. (I've only been hunting for about six weeks though.)

Congrats on the productive day!
 
Wow Dave, that barber looks like it is hot off the mint! Congratulations on the great silver! :cheering: :clapping:
 
Thoses are some sweet silvers :envious: been awile since I dug a old dime crying01 thanks for reminding me what they look like lol
 
:shocked04: :shocked04: That is a low mintage and pretty pricey dime Dave |:confused:) |:confused:) Only 510,000 minted. Sweet find. 7 in a standing home with all that trash is a good depth thumbsup01 Nice find on a hard to fill space in the old album. :clapping:

Just looked it up its the lowest mintage of the barber dimes , but not the most expensive , wonder why?
 
Congrats Dave, that yard was definitely worth going back over. :clapping:
Nice looking silver... especially the Barber.
Way to go.

Been trying to do better about those iffy signals. How would you describe yours that paid off? I always have a hard time remembering myself sometimes....the adreneline gets pumping at everysignal, and I seem to come too once the target is in hand...especially when it's a rude awakening of trash lol

I generally run at 28 myself. Took awhile to get use too, lots of noise. I've have managed a few silvers this year where the CO number bounced between 40-48 and the Fe ...well that was everywhere. Got a merc 4 inch down under a fist size rock that hit at 12-40. I don't even pay attention to the Fe number for the most part, I've been trying to get better at digging nickels, as I don't normally tend to dig the lower numbers, just depends on the surroundings. If I'm in a trashy park...forget it. If I'm in a yard, I'm digging.

Always trying to learn from others to improve myself...and not only detecting ;)
