A Find That Took A Lifetime


Recommended Posts


Congrats on the Barber!!!!

Those roofing nails with the metal washer can be a pain.  Often times the alloy isn’t really iron so they will high tone all day.  Definitely worth digging some more after finding that dime thou!!!

Any silver dime is a nice find.  Barbers even better.  Good story about the old home place.  I bet there are still more goodies there for your next trip....

Roofing nails give me trouble, too.  All nails if oriented vertically give nice signals from what I've found.  But the heads on the roofing nails are large enough to come in there at the Indian Head penny TID (or close), even when not perfectly oriented. If you're in an old spot, you're best to just dig 'em out unless you happen to be in a spot where someone dumped a whole keg. ?
