Went back to an old baseball field today where I have been finding silver on every trip. Today I found 4 more! Got a solid coin signal about 5 inches down. After the plug was dug, the signal was squealing even louder and was almost positive it was a silver dime. Probed the signal, lifted a chunk, I see a nice silver rim. Could have sworn it was a barber quarter, after seeing the stars. Pulled it out and was staring at something much larger....A 1902 "O" BARBER HALF. This is my first and boy it's a beauty! Found 2 more silver dimes and a silver washington. What a day happy hunting!

MDTaylor,COOL Silvers,I'd say they were lost the same period,them Barbers show 40yr.+ wear. God Bless Chris
 

what a great silver day. congrats.
 

Sweet big silver !
 

A 3 day sliver is a good day, older sliver is better, Good hunting.
 

You found some really nice coins there, Congratulations! :icon_thumleft:
 

Thanks everyone. I already found a walking liberty half from the same place last week and 10 other silver coins. Can't wait to go back!
 

Ive only found 2 of those in my 10yrs of detecting, one lost the day it was minted, and one worn down to nothing. I keep a journal of everything I find, when, where, & of course what. ....you may want to jot this hunt down.
