Finally managing a little time off, took the family camping in north Florida over the weekend. While they were enjoying the sleep and attending family functions I had some time to swing, outrageous amount of targets, now that I am home after a month away, I've been able to hit the beaches for past day and half. Now both were equally as enjoyable detecting experiences, even though the finds look lopsided.

Campground finds excluding junk pennies in the bowl, approx 7 hours detecting (as my gal laughs at 7) she says more like 12. I've never experienced this many pocket dumps, it's was ridiculous and overwhelming. 2 .925 earrings, 1 .925 rose ring and 1 14k band with 3 unknown stones. I would guesstimate $20+ in clad, copper bracelet. Mis junk jewelry.

This is the return to beaches finally, roughly 10 hours squishing sand in toes, majority wet middle to high on the slope.

About $8+ in clad , dozen and change of misc sinkers, junk star necklace ad change, key ring, k-9 tag hooks, junk pendant, tent stakes( for sponge) and a pretty cool uncut key, retails for about 13$+ and have some other interesting styles.

Be safe out there, especially you in the path of Arthur

Looks like the campground hunting took the win by a good margin! Nice finds and sweet rings! Looks like you had some fun! Keep it up!

OMG it was frigging apey, the pull tabs and bottle caps were enough to make the patient impatient. Unreal amount, ended up cherry picking the last couple hours.

More power to you man I'd probably wind up with nothing but silver because of that problem in an area like that.
... That's a big honkin earring

It's a bohemian eye key, company is out of Cali, make oddball keys like that, arrowhead one with turquoise, skull, middle finger.. Etc novelty upstart mom and pop type. I'm sure that tent stakes in Dubai are made of gold with ivory inlay, hand carved to commemorate having to much time on hands.
