Had to go to the V.A. today for a doctors appt. and took the ATP along with me because I wanted to hit an old railroad station that was built back in the early 1800's on my way back home. Plus somewhere in this area there was a skirmish between the Confederate Calvary and the Union infanty. (Haven't found it yet.) Anyway, holly cow what a bunch of trash in the ground. I just keep digging through it and it paid off. I found 2 nice things before the rain came and it was well worth it. Found my first Barber quarter 1907 and a B&O lead bail seal. Stamped 1152 on the front and B&O on the back. 26 copper wire things, 5 lead washers and I'm not sure what the last thing is. Here's the pics enjoy! HH!

I dig everything Old Dude. One thing I've learn it doesn't always ring in like a textbook reading. Something will always surprise you.

Way to go WV Hilljack ! That is one beauty of a Barber, congrats! I'm glad you saved her, I hope you can keep hitting that spot, I'm thinking there is probably allot hiding in there.
 

Beautiful quarter, and I like that old seal too.
 

Always great knocking one off the bucket list!! That Barber is in incredible shape too- Congrats!!

Congrats my man. That is a really nice quarter... I have one, but it is not as nice as yours. Very well done.
 

Thanks everyone.
