from an old "out of the way" beach that I had never detected.

Just happened to discover this beach while driving around the other day.

I have to get back there... hunted only a couple of hours this time; have to take care not to over work the back digging in those rocks.

I've had nothing to post for some time now, but I have been viewing all the terrific finds on the forum; Congrats to all on the fine detecting!:hello2:


Beach was down to "bare bones"...lots of rocks and wooden ( ? old pier) remnants to dig in and around.

Here's some pics..

Thanks for looking

Hi Lorraine. I'm new and will be following you. In what part of the country are you located? I hunt mostly Delaware beaches.

Congrats on the finds! I love to see the old coins come back to us.

Nice finds...and Congrats on locating a new detecting site.:hello2::hello2::hello2:

Finding detecting spots is getting more and more difficult but you seem to have a great talent for sniffing them out. How many of us beach hunters find the old silver coins? Great detecting on your part!
