and for you Silver Lovers.

2 More Barber Dimes :

1908 in very poor condition,
found at about 6 inches under a very thick root.

and a 1905, in Nice Condition at about 4" in Very hard Ground
Beside a Drive way, under a Flat Stone.

Plus at about 6" in a driveway, I used a Pick to get a 1942 Wheat

Nice finds Jeff. Your soil looks just like mine right now. Dry hard and compacted tightly.

I scratched a merc yesterday sticking right in the side of the clay. This time of year sucks a little.

You get the real heavy grey oxidation on your silver to. The kind that's like impossible to get off.

Still 2 barbers is a nice hunt.

Great finds!!! Yeah, i know we could use some rain right now also to wetten up the soil.

Familiar sight here to. The ground that is. Congrats on the sweet lookin 1905 Barber dime.That 08 is one thin dime but still a nice find. I don't know about you...but I think I'm gonna go outside and do a rain dance. Keep up the great job at the grove. HH!
 

Nice finds Jeff....

I want a BARBER!!!!!!
 

Nice Finds Jeff.. Still waiting for silver myself but its nice to see what others are coming up with.. I can't relate to the soil though, as upstate NY has had so much rain the past month or so a lot of holes that I dig are very muddy. Anyway HH Midnightguy
 

Congrats on the silver, ground looks very dry! HH, Mike
 

Thanks everyone.

had a Sprinkle late last night.
probably not enough to water a cactus :(


Here's some Images of the Park.
