Good to hear from Europe. I hear some European beaches get a lot less detectors there, per capita, than USA beaches. Were you hunting the wet sand or dry sand? Nice going.

Spain can be a little pi$$y about digging up their "treasures"...ask Odyssey International, lol. The chance of the Guardia civil jabbing guns in your ribs and confiscating your detector and even a jail cell is pretty high.
The rest of Europe have many beaches classed as "war" sites, so detecting them is prohibited and/or risky.

...So yeah, many Euro' beaches have less detectorists competing for finds. Tourists on a 2 week vacation can usually get away with it though.
