After giving the Omega a week off, grabbed it this morning and headed out to a spot that doesn't give up many targets, but when it does the odds are pretty good that one might be a silver or one of another older coin variety and possibly even a period relic. After close to 3 1/2 hours of hunting, however, it had all the ear marks of being another silver less hunt. Then, bang, bang, I hit 2 fairly deep wheaties back to back. I inched my way along a little further from the last wheat cent and I got that sweet mellow tone that kept showing a tight 88-90 reading at 6" and I just knew I had me a silver quarter. As fate would have, it was, a nice 1904 Barber. The 3 wheat cents are 18, 19 and 57d. Also ended up with the bullet, 4 clad dimes and a quarter and 6 Memorial cents. Had on the 11dd coil, running disc 1, sen 99, d3 tones and gb of 62-65. HH jim tn

Nice going Jim, love the Barber quarter :clapping:

That ground is unkind to your teens wheaties, they usually come out nice and green around here.

Thanks everyone. Brian, our ground is harsh on coins in general. IH's wheats and older nickels are usually about toast when dug. j.t., I may have given it a light "kiss," not sure. Mud, this is my 6th Barber quarter for the year and is the nicest of the bunch. I have found as many Barbers as I have Washington's. HH jim tn

he" designed" the coin!..(lol!) it's barely noticeable so not to be concerned! jim!
