Battled 50 degree wind at 45 mph (sand blowing horizontally) and big waves to hunt the wet sand. After a few hours I came home with 50 coins and a small silver ring. I forgot to include the rest of the coins in the photo, forgot that I emptied my pouch half way through the first hunt. I finally gave up when my feet were so cold I felt like I was walking on a bed of nails. I need to get some dive booties. Heck I need a wetsuit, I was in shorts and a rash guard!

Mostly Pennies, but some Quarters and lots of dimes. There was a perfect coin line. I tried lower to see if there was a line of heavier items but I didn't find one. Ahh well it was nice to be digging for a change. About $5.00 in clad total.

It's been sanded in forever. Finally Neptune farts in my direction.

Hey I lived in NS for awhile working as a commercial diver. Best of luck when you get here! It all depends on the weather.

Your looking a little light on the pull tabs-

Nice hunt, but freezing cold for this Florida boy. I've got to find a nice dirt patch to do some dry fishing.
