[QUOTE="J.T. Parker, post: 25399337, member: 106405"]Hello Paddy, Not personally a great fan of the Barber coinage, but I have to sincerely graduate you on this excellent (conditioned) half. (Perhaps a days wage for labor in 1907?). When actively detecting years ago, I was hunting my old elementary school grounds (Briscoe elementary est. 1928) & had attracted a handful of youngsters watching me dig lost surface change. I was explaining how I could tell how deep a target was when I received a faint signal. Digging down over 8" through black caleche clay, I pulled out this beautifully white 1915 Barber half...amazing, not only this group of kids, but myself as well! My coin was no where in as good condition as your example..So Congrats on crossing this item off your Medal Detecting Bucket List. J.T.[/QUOTE]
