Found my 1st Barber Dime

[eddie72876]

Hi everyone,
Its been a while since I've posted any finds (most of 'em were in too bad of shape to have a picture come out). But a couple of days ago I dug this beautiful 1908d barber dime at my friend's neighbors house. It was built in the mid 1800s so I figured it would be a good spot to try. I have never found a barber dime before, and to find one in this condition was really great. I'll be going back there soon with the "Explorer II" in hand. I can't wait!!! Happy Hunting everyone and thanks for looking.
