New site - Coral still a'beeping! (mystery object?????)

Went out SCUBA to a new site; had a tip that old bottles etc had been found there amongst what looks like a very spread out pile of ballast stones.

In about 60ft of water, no visible timbers or large objects (and alas no sewer pipes :sadsmiley:)

Spent two hours on the bottom (getting an hour from each tank is GOOD for me!) and finally hit loads of signals in a small 'basin" - I assume stuff has been pushed around and all ended up in one spot?

loads of 'coral beeping' and I assume from the shapes it will be shot and nails etc. All very well encrusted so at least its OLD! :thumbsup:

However, I did get ONE MYSTERY ITEM; I actually fanned away the sand with my hand and there it was. I SO HOPE its a coin and not some trash from a passing tourist boat!!

its about one and a half inch in diameter, so assume its probably trash? (do coins come that big??)

will start to clean all the bits and update - if its worth doing so!! :tongue3:

Well... your pretty good at finding things in low areas but I'd like to see how you'd do here upon this ridge top. I'm still looking for the golden horseshoe. I think Huntsman53 - Frank found it and went back home (he won't say). So I'm still holding out for a break. I could use some of your luck!!!!!!!!

Sorry Brad, I can't talk right now as the Dentist made me some real purty Gold teeth :icon_biggrin: and I can't devulge where he got the Gold.
