The water hasnt been my cup of tea lately and ive been busy as heck so when i get the the beach ive been kickin the sand. I think gum wrapper are the new pull tabs... hate those things. Anyway, the other day got a great signal thought it was a large bottle top.... because the beach was a bit trashy. Did a little kick with the foot but nothing.... so i used the scoop with no expectations ..... woo what a surprise when i saw this big ole silver in the scoop. NICE American Eagle $1.... first large coin on the beach for me. Looks like someone lost their lucky coin.

The other finds were a heavy silver ring, a small ITS A BOY charm/neckess, and an odd silver neckless that weighed in heavier that the ring. The other goodie you can really tell is a NICE 14K gold, size 13 mens ring that weighed in at around 6.2 grams. The dry sands been pretty good to me lately even thou im still meeting a lot of new hunters on the beach.

Being an ole dirt hunter i love th big silver even more than the gold. These coins dont just pop up very often. DG where you been.... not seen a post in a couple of days? The coin and gold ring was found the same day the others was from a couple of days earlier just thought id add them.

That American Eagle is great, I found one on Cocoa Beach two years ago dated 2004 and I was shocked. That is just to funny, I could never understand why someone would have it out there. I would post a pic but I'm currently in Afghanistan!!!! Great finds, good luck.
 

Lorraine.... cant get my finds as clean as yours. Ive got a good electrolysis set up.... just cant beat them. But i dont think i take the time you do.
