This is the best day of coin hunting I ever had. Very first day out with the Legend. This is the same site I found the 2, Buff's and a Merc last week. I hunted this side of the yard last year with the Nox 600, and missed these. These are the first Barbers I have ever found and to find 3, in one day is just crazy. All were about 5-6 inches down and about 3 feet apart.

Congrats on the triple Barbers and a very successful maiden voyage with the Legend. I'd hit that place from every possible angle. Good luck, Mark

so how big an area where these were found? you may have just missed hitting them with the 600?

Each were within 3 feet of each other 5-6 inches deep. The Nox would have hit these, I just missed them last year. Always wanted to find a Barber Quarter and finding 3, in one hunt was crazy. The front yard is about 20'x 30' on the left side of the sidewalk. Hope to find a SLQ next.
 
Great start what else did you find?

Did not know what I had until Stetam identified the casing. Found the casing in the same yard as the Barbers. 41 Swiss Vetterli Bolt Action Rifle. 1869 - 1871.

Sorry to revive your old thread, I just got a legend. What did the silvers ring up as number wise on the vdi??
