Hey everyone, Was a great day today in my book with another Barber half to add to the collection. I picked my brother up today to go hunting. We stopped at this one site were a old tunnel was built in 1902 . There was a abandoned road with a nice creek. I was told back in the day there was people who lived back in this area. We had minimal luck because of the trash and growth.

We left to go to my trusty park that always got something old to give. Well for about a year we had our eye's on a spot on the out skirt of a huge cemetery. There was a long 75 by 20 yard strip with a huge old wall that bordered the grass. Today was the day to hit it. We were driving by and I just finally puled over to hit it. I noticed graves in the woods above the area we were hunting. They were no longer being taken care of anymore.

My brother started by finding a wheat right away. I found a nice old marble on the surface. We felt good about the chances of finding some good stuff. Well it was slow a wheat here and there. Well finally I got a nice solid signal at the edge of a bush line were I suspect past hunters just missed it. Well I dug down and out popped this beautiful Barber half in e.f condition I would say. It is a 1904 and list in the 05 redbook at 140.00. It's just looks like it came out of the mint. The scan doesn't even do it justice. I then followed with a 35 merc. My brother found about 5 wheat's and a old civil war token comemerating some guy named franklin Peirce. The 14th president.

We had a good day. This spot needs another hit after a good rain. We got a private yard to do tomorrow so hopefully it holds something. If not that barber half made my week.

Thanks for looking

Jeremy
