Nice find! Bummer on the scratch.

I think you have the dream property. Most of us are just itching to get access to property that old.

That's a nice old barber. :) Yeah, I have gouged a few coins throughout the years too. It sure hurts. :(

Nice Barber Charlie and with that 41 acres you got your own little private detecting area that will keep you busy for quite a while. I know there are more goodies there and can;t wait to see what else you find as you cover more ground there!!!
