Beach & Shallow Water Hunting
Was able to get out today at a beach that I have hunted quite a few times in the past... A lot of the areas were closed from the Hurricane, but I managed to squeeze my truck in a small area that just fit.... Got to swinging and every target was coin after coin today. Not much in the way of jewelry or junk... a few pieces of silver here and there... there were a few others swinging there too... I went out far on the mud flat to get away from the other guys and got a loud hit and dug a quarter... checked the hole and got a VERY LOW tone.... could it be a ring? Hmmmmm out pops this little piece of history from 1851.....WOW.... I am on cloud nine.... 42 years of hunting and this was a first for me today.... There is hope that there are still some goodies to be found.... This is a special beach to me this year... I have found a few diamond rings here too this season.... Thanks for looking and I can't wait till tomorrow.... Thank You Sandy from the bottom of my heart..... for the erosion that you gave us up here in Mass... 1 Dollar Gold Coin (1).webp1 Dollar Gold Coin (2).webpI think that it may be a Charlotte NC coin

awesome, congrats on a lifelong goal! That's a dream for many, and with all of your hunting and gold, it's fitting! Do you think it came from a bezel?

I have to admit I do agree with CMD in that I'm not sure the hurricane should be thanked. I have family in southern NJ and heard of the devastation the storm caused. I'm just thankful that they were okay.
 

Congrats on an awesome find! What is almost as impressive is your 42 yrs of hunting. I can only imagine the changes you have seen over that period of time. My hat is off to you!
