Welcome to the forum! :waving:

That is an amazing first day! The Barber Half is an incredible find! I bet that put a big smile on your face.

What model of detector are you using?

Thanks. I walked over that half dollar for 40 years before I caught the detecting bug. I have a Garrett AT Pro.

Fantastic first hunt. The first day I got my CTX3030, I found a Barber half as well in the first 5 minutes of using the new detector. I had the ATPro for about 1 year prior, never found silver (my fault, not the equipment).

Always had the bug, when when I found a Barber half, totally into it again. Enjoy the new hobby and keep sending in the finds. Great group of people on this forum.
