Went to one of my fav spots on the Cape that I did very good a few yrs ago
was told it was cleaned out by a few others that I had taken there in the past and they have gone back a few times since
supposedly without much success
I was begining to believe them after my first hour there - I had a couple of sinkers and just a few coins
at low tide I hit an area that has a deep hole and you need a mask and snorkel to hit - I got a signal that did not seem special - I scooped checked spot to make sure I had it and worked away
swinging not eager to check what I had - was surprised when I looked in finally and saw gold - was an old time signet 14k - my day was made
worked back to that spot and got a faint signal - dug down real deep and pulled crusty quarter - gave a rub and crust broke and I could see it was a sil. Wash.
little ways away I got a blit and scooped the worn sterling cub scout ring ...little farther away I was about chin deep and found the large silver band and then I got
surprised with the 1963 class ring - tide was starting back in. I got a hit and checked with my ID mode - I got a low tone and a high tone over the same signal
I scooped and saw clump of iron in my scoop - rechecked the spot thinking there might be another target - nope
plucked the iron object out of my scoop and dropped it in my pouch - when I got home - poured my stuff out - picked up the iron clump to see a coin sticking out of it - some of the rust had broken off
edge of coin is silver - I think its a dime - thing is though I want to know what it is - I want to leave as is - cause I think its cool

Nice job Casper on the ring. Just found a signet ring and was thinking of having it fixed and putting my initials on it. It was In my back yard so I figure it belonged to my great grandparents. That coin is a cool find too. Would drive me nuts not knowing what it is but it's a nice piece either way.

Awesome job, it is not often you come home without some gold. Very nice indeed.
 

That is pretty cool, good work getting to that spot.
 

Probably a '16-D dime. :D But, it's too cool to destroy to find out :/
