Managed to sqeeze in an hour long hunt yesterday at the beach with Deershed (My Dad). Temps were around 100°f, so it made for a roast toasty session. As usual, I wasn't finding much from the start but I wasn't going to let that slow me down. A penny here, a nickle there and some foil and pull tabs. Nothing too exciting, so I kept on going. All the sudden my machine goes crazy on a shallow 60-63. Signals like this seem to be few and far between so I usually get a little excited when I do come across one. Instead of jumping to my scoop to locate this particular target, I swiped the sand with my foot since the target was shallow. One swipe, nothing. Second swipe, ahhh! I see what looks like a gold band. I then scooped it up, took a brief look at it and dropped it into my pouch. We were already headed back to our vehicle so I decided id just check it out then. Once we got back, It was a little easier to see what I had. Turns out, the band is 14k. But, theres a coin mounted in the face of it. One I've never seen before, I first thought it was a silver 1/10th oz Eagle. WRONGGG!!! Its better! Its a Platinum 1/10th oz coin!!! Im beyond flabbergasted. Never in a million years did I expect a find like this. Let alone finding two gold rings while on vacation.
