I had to get out of town to hunt its just nasty with the dead fish. Its still not easy out there.... but i was surprised at the end of the day how little trash i had.... maybe a dozen pull tabs and some can slaw, yet i got over $5 in change as well as these finds. Seemed like a lot of the small stuff was covered up. The gold ring is 14K and 5 grams. The one silver ring i dont believe is old, just has that home made look. The bracelet, locket (made in china) and small ring are silver. Ther earring and other ring turned out to be J U N K. What can you say about the beer opener ring.... im in Florida.

I must be sheltered...I never knew there was such a thing as a beer opener ring! That gold ring sure is nice. Glad you found some goodies.

Nice finds!! New areas are profitable sometimes. Ken and I continue to try and find other beaches other than the sanded in ones with 17 hunters waiting for someone to drop a trinket.

Those finds to me was really work. Went out today .... 3 quarters, 5 pennies and maybe 4 or 5 pull tabs in 5 hours. Hero to zero as you can tell. Finding a place to hunt without sand or that others have missed right now isnt easy. Ive only lived here going on 2 years so if you dont know the area its tuffer to find them. Right now there isnt many people on the beach either so you may pass up an area because of that that could have been a sweet location. There is just a lot to learn when you move and dont know an area as well as trying to learn a new style of hunting.
