Infinium fun

[ewtaylor]

So I finally took the Infinium to the local freshwater beach. Nice size and clear water made searching fairly easy. The beach is not old, built around 1973. I wasn’t worried about depth too much, just trying to learn the language. I can tell you this; I know what a bobby pin sounds like.

I used the 8” mono coil and really like it for pinpointing. I definitely need to buy the “carrot” pinpointer at a later time.
After digging a bunch of trash, fish hooks, lead weights, and pennies, I came upon a funny signal. It was an area between rocks with no more than 3 or 4 inches of sand. I kicked the sand away and saw the edge of a coin. Turns out it was a coin spill of quarters mixed in with a pulltab.

There were other detectorists on the beach so I was surprised this was missed.

Anyway, time was getting short as I had an appointment looming so I headed a little deeper and got a great signal. I even brought it up with the first scoop. Looked in and a shiny ring smiled back. Joy led to disappointment as it turned out to be a stainless, engraved girl’s ring. But a ring is a ring and I’m happy with what I got. Only went knee deep in the water as I haven’t purchased waterproof headphones yet.

I’m going to Mexico this fall and since I’m a novice at beach hunting I need to practice. Water hunting is a lot harder than it looks.
