Couple Of Barbers Couple Of Rosies And One Was In A Fire

[Sooper Dave]

I had a little bit of time yesterday evening and stopped by a new spot I've been wanting to ask permission to hunt. It's another old school spot and I was told some old timers have hit it over the years and I could give it a go. So I made my way to the back of the property swinging as I went. I dug a couple pieces of trash and my third signal sounded like silver. I was happy to see a Barber dime in the plug and even more to see 1899. So it was a good start to this new spot. As the sun was going down I continued to dig a steady flow of wheaties and then a Rosie. I went for another wheat signal but was surprised to see a worn Barber in the hole. As I worked my way back to the car to leave, I got a silver signal that turned out to be the ugliest silver dime I've ever dug. I can barely make out the torch on the back to tell it's a Rosie. So glad it wasn't a Barber that got roasted. HH David

Good job on the pre-1900 barber. Its always fun to keep busy with old wheat pennies and have a few silver mixed in.

I've found some toasted coins before but you get the year-end award for the best one!
Congrats on the Barbers and the rest!
