The one youve got is in fairly decent shape. Most of the Barbers I see down here are worn flat and very thin. Barbers bring good money for higher grades because you dont see them to often. Love the coins, but man a ms-60 usually cost an arm and leg. Like to find a bag of them myself! (in reply to carobran) Post #: 23

It kept ringing up silver dollar range (99-00 on Fisher F2).. If it's in that range it's either silver dollarish or a hunk of junk. it seemed smaller than a big hunk of metal so I was all excited. Until I pulled it out. It wasn't lying on it's side. It was teeth down so that's why the signal was so narrow.... (in reply to ironmountain) Post #: 25

My cousin's wife, while on their honeymoon in Florida, got into a tissy-fit and through her wedding and engagement rings out the window of the hotel onto the beach. They never found them. It was his grandmother's engagement ring. Needless to say that marriage did not last long. _____________________________ Always looking for veterinary bottles, American and foreign.

But, my ex did get a nice big diamond then decided to get divorced. In the end it worked out, she pays me alimony which I figure pays for all my belongings she stole!
