[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 924870, member: 16269"]One of my favorite finds from metal detecting is a Barber dime. I live in central Canada about a hundred miles from the U.S. border. Back in the early days, Winnipeg was a popular destination for U.S. tourists and a trading center. One of the stories I heard (not confirmed) was that there was so much U.S. currency here that it was regularly crated up and shipped back to the States. So far, the only silver U.S. coin I've found is a 1904 Barber dime. Well worn and bent.
