Hey everyone, got back out to barber park today. After yesterday's hunt, wasn't exactly sure how much was left here, but this place is HUGE, so it will take some time to give it a good scan. Not to mention its all woods, lots of signals are easily missed due to bushes, branches, etc.. Low and slow has been the key here, lots of can tops, pull tabs, homeless camps, needles, I think you get the picture the coins really never stopped coming, and by the end of it all I had 7 silver's, tying my personal best in one hunt. One a worn semi key 1897-S barber dime. The find of the day in my opinion though is the counterstamped 1869 injun. Here's what little info I found on the stamp: "This C.F. ULRICH logo is the mark of Conrad F. Ulrich of New Haven, CT. He was a master engraver with the Winchester Rifle Company. Today, his artistically engraved rifles realize many thousands of dollars at auction. About ten of Conrad's stamped coins are known, of which this 1882 is the latest date thus far recorded." Really happy to have this coin, which is also a semi-key date as well. If anyone happens to find anymore info on C.F. Ulrich please feel free to share! I might go back out tomorrow, but will give barber park a rest I think. Until next time, thanks for looking and happy hunting!
