Show me your Barbers

TundraPlugger · Jun 16, 2017

I think the Barber coinage is my favorite out of all US issues, I'd love to see what folks have dug up! I will start with one that I had in my truck that I dug a couple years ago in a ball diamond. I like it a lot for the toning and the fact that it's got a mintmark.

Funny you should ask, any Barber dime, quarter or half has been at the top of my bucket list forever, especially that dime, because it is a coin I should have found but never did.
Finally a few months ago I finally came across one and to my delight it was a quarter from the 1800's.
Also I recently found my 4th V nickel, also designed by Charles Barber, and even though it is still pretty rough it is in the best shape of any I have found so far.

Here are a few of the Barber coins I have found. ALWAYS makes my hunt worthwhile when I find one.

Here's my dug Barber coins.......the 1893 quarter was my first back in 1984 dug across the street from my old high school. The 1902 dime was dug about a year later in a park. The well worn 1903 dime was dug in a field where an old farm house once stood and along with it I dug an 1879 Morgan silver dollar. The 1904 dime in a holder was dug by my girlfriend in an old school yard back in 2015. All four coins are Philadelphia coins.

Another couple

Here's a pair I found in the same hole a several years ago. I posted the whole story then but the unique thing was that I found these at different times due to my carelessness from being stoked about finding the half. I dug the dime a few weeks later.

Just dug this one up last week, its my oldest coin to date..
I thought it was going to be a penny so I wasnt real careful and hit it on the left side with the Lesch :mad:

Here are the 4 I've found this year. Two bottom ones together in a spill. They're ugly, but I'll take'em!

My poor V Nickel is in this picture. It's a 1907 and in terrible shape.

Cool thread! I've dug 9 barber dimes and a barber quarter but this one was my first barber dime and by far the nicest barber I've found! Took it to the coin shop and he said he would grade it a AU50.

I have had a lot, most have been sold but my absolute favorite was my half found earlier this season, a 1895 O.
