Did a 6 hour hunt on the beach today. Post Earl targets seem to be going deeper. I guess the sand is coming back onto the beach. However, I did manage to dig $2.72 in change that was clearly not recent drops, plus a unique 11.5g "Mexico 925" Charleston silver Ring which has a crown that flips over to show either the "Pineapple of Welcome" or the "Palmetto tree and moon" which is on the SC state seal. No gold today, but I got a good workout. Hope your hunts were successful. Ralph

Nice finds. Don't worry about those deeper targets. That dual field will find them if they are there.

Thanks for all the kind words.... The sea glass and coral were found on Grand Turk Island, when my wife and I took a cruise this past summer..... In the past I have taken pictures of my finds, just sitting on the kitchen counter. I am not sure whose post it was but there were several, where their photo of the treasure was in an attractive setting. I figured, "Why not do that too?" And I like the way it looks. Thanks to whomever it was that inspired me. Ralph
