Got to the park this morning and happened to notice bulldozers parked on the hill I just had to what was going on. Bulldozers surfaced about 5-6 inches of soil off the top of an area that produced many old coins in the past this could be my only chance to get in there two minutes into the hunt a V nickel then an almost perfect Barber dime my best find of the day was this beautiful Simons thimble the third one I found in this park..

Fantastic detail on that Barber! Great hunt!
 

Whoa, that Barber is crisp! Very nice and I love that thimble, nice work!
 

Great finds! Awesome park!
 

Nice Barber but that thimble is sweet too.Way to go on a presented opportunity and great presence of mind to see it!
 

Sweet thimble! Well done on the dime also.
 

Killer thimble. Congrats.
 

Congratulations on your beautiful recoveries..it’s always a great time to get to a site just after the bull dozers..one time I drove past a construction site and seen them stripping the ground rushed home and went back with the detector and found some nice silver
 

Fantastic Barber. The collectors call coins like that circam...circulation cameo. One of the best I've seen. Gary
 

Dandy Dime!! Lets see the pic of the other coins cleaned up!!
 

Thimbly fan dime tastic! Grats on showing up at the exact right moment.
 

Congrats on some nice finds. That Barber is in great shape, and I like the thimble. 3rd one in the same park ? They must have held sewing class there at one time !
