Barely had much time to unpack from Jamaica trip
My parents rented a cottage on the Cape for the week - my father was supposed to go on fishing trip with Whydah
but due to conditions - it was canceled - they gave me a call and said they were just hanging out and if I wanted
to come down for a few nights - there was plenty of room - so I went down
Right after Labor Day- beachs for the most part close down - the gates are left open - you don't have to pay to park
locals usually hammer every beach in sight - I know guys that take their vacations that week just to hunt nonstop
and the retirees are out there every day anyways - I brought my new hooka system out to test and planned on taking advantage
of the full moon negative tides with my mask & snorkel. I ended up hitting 4 beaches - here are the results
4 old gold rings - 1964 class ring - 1957 class ring - 1952 class ring - antique gold ring with red stone
2 silver rings - 5 silver religious medals
1 silver half - 14 silver quarters (3 stand.lib., 1 Barber) - 10 silver dimes (5 mercs, 5 sil.Roos.)
and 6 Buffalo nickles
all water finds
Beach 1



Beach 2 - sil.relig.medal - 2 sil. Wash.quart.


Beach 3 - hooka test site - out up to around 10 feet down at low tide (thin ring is silver)

Beach 4 - Found an area way out at negative low tide - hit it at AM low and then PM low (will definitely be going back here)
All these spots get hammered - but as far as I know - Im the only one getting out there with mask & snorkel
From chest on in here - its a ghost town - all the recent drops are gone - but out in no mans land - seemed practically virgin




IT WAS FUN!!!

I think you misidentified a coin type. Those are Water Buffalo buckles (drum and symbol crash).

Awesome finds and what a vacation!

-Happy Hunting!
