Ron and I made it to a new park today. One that was on the list last year... but I never got around to visit.

We were hoping for a lightly detected park but quickly realized we were searching for oldies that others had missed. :rolleyes: The park definitely shows signs of potential, so a return trip will be in order this year. :yes:

First silver of 2012. <:

Hey, that's a really nice hunt, Joe! I'm glad that you were able to get out and hunt in this decent weather, it looks like winter is arriving for real tomorrow. :frozen:

Sweet Barber Dime! :smitten: My first silver of 2012 was also a Barber Dime. Yours looks to be in great shape, full Liberty on the headband! Nice Indian Heads too! What's the date on the coin from the Philippines?

Very sweet finds and another spot for you to go back to! How many honeyholes you got there in Iowa anyway? By the way, do you ever dig a barber without full Liberty, :poke: it's another beauty! Congrats!

What's the date on the coin from the Philippines?

Thank you Tony. The Philippines coin is a five centavos from 1965. Sure beats a 1965 Jefferson. :yes:



as of now Joe , i have twice as many silvers as you >lol, that will soon change my friend , great hunt

lol You never know. :dontknow: You do quite well in your spots. :yes:



nice barber and IH,good hunting.

It did clean up very well after I photographed it. :smitten: Thanks JT.



wow :omg: that was quick mister , i knew it wouldn't be long before the silver started flowing out of the ground for you Joe ;) lol lol sweet barber my friend :cheering: :cheering:

This warm weather made for a quick start to 2012. Normally the ground would be frozen solid under a couple of feet of snow this time of year. But... snow and cold and more snow it forecasted for tonight and tomorrow. :frozen: I'll have to wait a bit to resume the new season.



A great way to bring in the new year . :perfect10: |:cheering:

thumbsup01 :yes:



That does make for a very good start. :yes:

Thank you Angel. :) A Barber is a great way to start the year... although it never really felt like last season ended. :twirlingeyes: I'm pretty sure we are done here until March now. crying01 Winter is coming tonight. :frozen:



So it begins! 8/ Just kiddin' lol

Yes it does. :cheesysmile: By the way... aren't you about due for a 6-8 silver coin spill? :confused: :yes: :poke: lol
Thanks brother.



I am determined that this year I will get myself a Barber dime.

This will be the year Al... I can feel it. :yes: I'm pulling for ya. thumbsup01



Sweet way to start the year, and that barber looks very nice.

Thanks Randy. This is probably the closest I'll be to your silver count for the rest of the year. :yes: lol
Best of luck to you this year.



Hope you can get another hunt or two in before the snow sets in, but it sounds like you are in for a storm :-\

Thank you Angie. Doesn't look like I'll be hunting again until March. The storm is just reaching us tonight. Should be about 4 inches of snow on the ground by this time tomorrow. crying01



Very sweet finds and another spot for you to go back to! How many honeyholes you got there in Iowa anyway? By the way, do you ever dig a barber without full Liberty, :poke: it's another beauty! Congrats!

This was one of those 'needle in a haystack' park. I'm sure they are there... but will take some time to extract. :yes:
But, I do have a few nice aces up my sleeve for the spring. :daydream:
Thanks D and yes... I have dug plenty of Liberty-less Barbers. :yes: lol



:perfect10:, Sweet finds!! |:cheering: Nice Barber! Thats what I'm lookin for thumbsup01. Congrats on a great hunt!! Especially for Janurary. WTG!

Thank you starman. I do love finding them. I hope you find one on your next hunt. :yes:
