I'd be going back to that area and hitting it again!
I mostly lurk here. Based on the enthusiastic response, this is a major find. I personally think it is very cool, but I am not a pro. Like others, I think this could be the tip of the iceberg. Like those same others (and a few more) I think the OP should probably keep any future finds to himself. I PM'ed the same advice. This might be a fluke, but if it is only a small part of a larger discovery then discretion is probably the best way to go here.
I thought about that myself it looks more like a concretion.Congrats on a find of a lifetime! I don't they are actually in "coral". It looks more like a concretion. I can't remember all the posts, but if you still have it in salt water, you should move it to fresh water. A good, long, soak in FW, with frequent changes of the water will leach the salt out and prevent further damage.
Sounds like Hollywood. I'm going in the morning. Don't know which beach yet, thinking Lauderdale before the sun comes up.Well I went to the beach today with renewed enthusiasm and waded out into the suf. I found 2 batteries, a poptop and a bunch of bottle caps.

OK, so after a day or two in distilled water, a little grime came off - tried to get a close up of the small coin underneath which appears to have a crown?
Did not come out much clearer but the silver one just below seems to have markings of some sort?
Also another close up of the letter on one of the upper silver coins??
hope this helps!!
