Hey all! :groovy:
I met up with Silver Star and Tech125 again yesterday for another hunt in the woods were I found my 3 Barber dimes the other day.
It was pretty obvious we aren't the only ones roaming these woods :shocked04:
I spotted this HUGE buck rub on a tree as I was walkin' into the woods!

My first good target came pretty quickly. A beautiful 1905S Barber dime :smitten:

This has got to be the nicest Barber dime I've ever found! You can even see the little seeds and everything! :shocked04:stretcher:

Boy that Barber dime is excellent. Betcha won't find another 1/2 cent like that, unless the other 1/2 of that one is still in the area. Congrats on finding 4 Barbers in that area
