Yet another Barber, a couple other silvers and a key date Wheat!

[TundraPlugger]

Got back out again today while the kids were at school and the wife was at work. Got a permission on the first doorknock and it was a good one! Nothing great in the front yard but a Rosie and a 1931-S Wheat in the curb strip!
Hit a couple other spots and managed a 1945-S Washington and a 1907-S Barber dime. Lots of clad as well but I won't bore you with that nonsense.

nice job! I keep hoping for a key date wheatie, none yet so grats!

Good job. And glad to see that you're keeping those key date S mints on this side of the Mississippi River !

Thanks bottlecap! I've had a little luck with better wheats. I've gotten a 1922-D and a couple 1924-D wheats. I wish I would have recorded finding this one but I had no idea it was going to be a 1931-S.

Thanks Tom! Those eastern guys already have too much colonial stuff in the ground and large cents......they don't need it clogged up with S mints too!

What a way to start a day, a good first permission request and being able to say "Yet another Barber...".

Heck yeah! I wish I had recorded digging the 1931-S but I don't tend to get that excited about wheats unless I know it'll be an older one.

Nice finds once again! I did pull a 1931-S out of a spill of about 18 wheat cents a few years ago up in Missoula. Fun to find a key date!

Thanks LtS! I've been quite lucky starting off this year.....I hope it continues!

Great job on the key date and the silvers. That cent is in excellent condition. Well done.

Thanks hoser! I looked at the wheat under my scope at the rig and it is a tiny bit porous from some minor corrosion bur I think I might send it in the get graded by NGC. I imagine it'll get the old "Environmental Damage" notation but I think it would be cool to have it certified.
