Too nice of a day not to get out hunting. Found the usual clad, a very nice 1926 Wheatie, and this worn Barber Dime. Funny thing is
everything about it is worn, but the date. My oldest find of the day...

I love that Barber Dime, it has character. :yes:

Just imagine how many hands it passed through and the stories it could tell.

:congrats:

That true Tony, I often wonder about the last person to touch it, and how long ago that was. A lost quarter years ago may have been your meal ticket or more...

Nice old dime Denny! I agree with Tony, it has lots of character. Did you find it in AZ or are you back now? HH, Dave.

You are right, some days it's just too nice not to go out and detect. Awesome that the date is still visible on that Barber. Nice find!
