Popular Post Denny Posted May 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2022 Hit the grassy area for 5 hours on Sunday tried hard to find another gold nugget didn’t happen but manage to dig up a 1900 barber dime. I’d 82-83-88 one way and 81-82 the other. I believe the coin was on edge 4-5 inches deep one of the reasons I bought the D2. Barber coin not corroded like many this one is just worn down from use.

Aaron Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Very nice! 👍 Barbers of any kind are so RARE in my parts, and Seated forget it! I just got news of a street tear up coming up next month in a mid 1800s area. Hoping to I’ll find some Barbers & Seated. CONGRATS! Aaron 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skate Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 That’s an interesting series of ID#s. Is this indicative of where older silver dimes will fall or because it was on edge? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F350Platinum Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Standing Liberty and Barbers, except for the V nickel have eluded me as well so far. Got a Walker and two seateds after a year of hunting. Most odd is I have never dug a silver Roosevelt dime. 🤔 I've dug more Spanish silver than anything in the 18/1900s. Nice coin! 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was on edge because of the lower numbers. Ground here in central California is bad ground I.d. is 92. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice coin! 👍 You’ll find a barber or standing liberty quarter soon. I hate them pesky Rosies prefer something older. I’ve only dug up 2 rosies at the patch of grass I’ve been hunting for over 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
