Ace 150 on the beach *updated with gold!*

Hi, hit the beach for some relaxation last night. Brought my Ace 150 mainly for the lightweight and no headphones.
It relegated me to the dry and moist sand. I tried it in the wash and wet sand, but it was too erratic and noisy.
Pictured here with a Jobe 2-piece sandscoop.

First find was a sealed plastic bottle with about 5 small crabs trapped inside. The mind really boggles at the mindset of these sadistic jerks.
Releasing them brought some karma I guess
After I found a few coins, a heavy silver chain 925 and a spear gun shaft!

I saw the chain going for a few hundred on the bay. I plan to do electrolysis on it tonight, clean it up and wear it!
Really happy with the find :)
Want to hit the wet and water with my White ID300 this weekend. Gl and hh

Thanks, with some diy electrolysis I was able to clean the chain up nicely.

This ring is fairly light and is a traditional Chinese style with the phoenix and dragon motif. Inscribed inside is a Japanese manufacture symbol and Chinese symbol for 24k / 999

Sort of only went down the beach for some exercise and relaxation, so I took the Ace 150 Garrett. I have hit this beach pretty hard and I wasn't finding much before hand- just a few coins. About ready to go home, so I detected towards the exit. Once again found this in the hard sand that was left exposed by tidal action, on Monday I also found a bling ring around the same spot.

I always make my wife outrageous claims that I will bring her home e.g. 6 rings and 14 Rolexes, so she was surprised! Always fun!
