I had one of my best water hunts tonight!

I headed out after dinner and spent about 2 hours detecting in the water. I found 5 pennies, 1 nickel, 2 dimes, 1 Canadian dime and two junk earrings. Every target I dug including trash is in the picture showing all the finds. As for the good stuff, I found a 1957 Wheatie, a 1928 Buffalo Nickel, a 1958 Silver Roosevelt dime, a 1964 Silver Roosevelt dime, and last but definitely not least my heaviest gold ring find yet! It's old 10k and weighs 12.7 grams.

Hi, no I found everything in the water. I just gridded an area in the water. Once I found the Buffalo Nickel I stopped gridding, and just focused on that specific area. I came across the two silver dimes, and the gold ring within a 10 foot area. Once I got out of that area I started finding some modern pennies and two of the dimes. The fun was over after that lol.

That mud is a real pain George, I hope we can hit that spot, that'd be great.
