Went out to some new sidewalk strips yesterday.  Was pretty slow, and HOT!  I found a wheat or two, and then the Merc.  Sweet!!  About fifteen feet later I hit an 8-47 and thought, "that's a weird quarter."  It sounded good so I dug it.  after about 3 prys with my Lesche, I popped up a silver half!!  Awesome, I figured it was a Franklin, or maybe a Walker, (Most of my finds have been in the '40s.) nope it was a BARBER!!!! My oldest and biggest silver to date!!!!  I couldn't believe it!  If you would've told me there was ANY half there, I wouldn't of believed you, but a Barber c'mon!  I found the little silver ring a couple of blocks over, it rang 12-40, I thought it was a screw cap!
