Sydney Bondi Beach Day Out

So, the story goes this way, i went last week to Play the Grand Prix magic the Gathering and also pick up a friends' E-Track. With a bit **** weather i had only 1 day to detect before my tournament. Also i had only my Lesche and Pinpointer on top of E-track.

IT was a beautiful day at the beach :

As i didnt have any gear on me, it was very hard to do the wet sand , a lot of time had to deag with my hands :-(

Here is an example of the 50c coint i found at 30+ sm

As you can see my Lesche is full length down in the hole

after couple of hours we took a break for lunch, then i checked my finds for that part of the day (around 15:30)

Result was amazing, and i really wanted to get a TON (100$)
for the day :

So we went to the beach, the problem was that my battery was only 50% charged when i arrived and also no torch, so was very limited in time :-(

After about 30 minutes i scored a very nice 14 ct Asian marked ring :

Targets were everywhere, but some deep. later i scored A nice Bow silver ring and...
...Finally ... Australian 6d ! to complete my set ;-)

Unfortunately it got dark, battery almost flat and very cold, so we had to go back to our backpackers,
I knew i was short of 100$ again.AGAIN :-(

The total was 75$ :

So Total change in ring count for the year is following

Gold +2
Silver +3

Thanks for looking and happy hunting :-)

Think of the number of quarters (USD) you would have to dig to reach your goal (sigh)!
