Picked up my buddy and decided to make it a super short hunt as he needed to be back soon. With that said we headed to a place that is within minutes from home.
Right out of the chute (within minutes) I got that faint bouncy High Mid too Right Mid bounce that is so typical of those deep silvers.
I dug about 10" and in the Lil clod I pulled out I saw that back of a silver. So, I called my buddy over and said call it. Well, it was a 1897 Barber.
If only she had the O.
We hunted for awhile but, had to get back. I ended up with 2 teen wheat's and one 20s. I also dug 3 clad Wash., and a Jeff.
I eyeballed the "Taken" leather band on the grass.
Not a bad day for such a short one in my book.
Here are the Barber pic's and the total for the hunt today.
