Default Old baseball field silver..
Haven't got out in a while, so today I ran back to the old baseball field I discovered in my town a while back..It's just a large open field now owned by the city..I found a lot of trash, some newer change mostly 1970's-80's, two wheats "can't read dates" & 3 silver dimes-1946, 1944 & 1912..All 3 where about 5 inches deep..It was a fun day..

Nice dime trifecta! That barber looks to be in excellent shape. Did you hit it with the digger? Don't feel bad, we ALL do it. I scratched my first silver quarter and my first and only walking liberty half!

Yaa..The ground was hard as a rock & I nicked it good, I have no idea what the barber was doing in the 1950's baseball field.
