Finally found one!

[Explorer.se]

I hadn’t detected in about 7 months and I finally found one! I detected an old school that I had detected previously where I found 2 Indian head penny’s and a 1909 wheat penny and I this time around I found an 1899 Barber quarter! I also found an Australian Florian - it is half silver. The Barber quarter took me a while to dig out because it was under tree root. I also scratched it but I’m nonetheless still happy. I had previously found two Barber dimes but now I have the quarter and next is the half dollar! I found an ignition coil for a model t (my first as well) I also found shotgun shell (1901 Winchester) and a small disc with writing on it? I can’t make it out. I also found the world’s smallest toy gun. I also found a kids ring and a few pieces of metal. I had a great time! The ground was hard to dig I could have used a Jack hammer. I can’t wait to get back out there again hopefully after it has rained but as we know it never rains in California

Love that barber quarter, it looks a little dirty but not worn much.
Probably dropped in the early 1900s.

Nice finds!!
Like stated above , that coin looks like it was lost shortly after it was minted.
In 19 years of detecting, I have only found two of them.

Cool finds! The gun is actually a squirt gun, about the same era as the Barbie.
