It almost got away *Pics Added*

[Goldmanford]

Since my coins sorter is out of order, I was scrambling to wrap a huge load of dimes, halves, and nickels. I took some that I had already "searched" and dumped them into a large zip bag to take in to work to roll and there on top of the bag was my FIRST BARBER DIME - 1911. One hundred years old and it almost got away.

Still waiting on my first Mercury.

I'll post a pic if ya'll want to see it.

Re: It almost got away

would love to see it. How did you manage to miss that lady?? were you edge checking?, anyhow, awesome score, 100 years old

Here are few pics of my 1st Barber. Looks like someone scratched their initials on the front.

And yes - I was edge searching so I just learned that lesson! Double check everthing.

The ones that almost get away are the best. That one will be really hard to spend.

Keep on Rollin' !

Keep after it, because Merc's are out there. The very first dime I ever found in CRH was a Merc, and it was from $20 in customer rolls. I just found #127 this week.

HH,

Here is a view of a few dimes with the Barber stuck in - at first glance it's hard to see but it you study it you can pick it out fairly easy. I missed it because it was bright white like most silver dimes I find.
