Merc and I hit a hole last week where we only managed a flat button between us. I noticed on an old map that one of the roads leading to this site is no longer in use. I started detecting it today for an hour and got a flat button, wheat, and a Barber half. Thank you for looking, C

I would be doing cartwheels if I found a Barber Half! :twirlingeyes:

What a great coin, and it's one from the 1800s too!

Congrats, Drew! :perfect10:

Digging any Barber is cool, but a Half dollar is great. Any mint mark? I got a 1894 s last year. I can still remember the dig.

Congrats Drew! And it's 1894! Hopefully more to come your way :yes: And very cool that you found it using an old map.

I've only found one- my pride and joy (1909s)

Mike, it was on a sunken road, where the walls are so old they are almost buried. The road is gone by the turn of the century. Thanks, Drew

Nice going on the cool relics and the Barber half Drew ( that's one of the many on my wish list). Your really smoking with that T2!! :perfect10: I'm really liking mine as well and lately it's all I've been using . The light weight and the super fast recovery is spoiling me something awful . :yes:

:groovy:
