Yesterday my friend Keith and I took a trip to Miami. We left at 4 am and detected from 6 am to 530 PM Lol. No idea how many tons of dirt we moved with our Stealth scoops but I know it was a lot and my body felt it for sure. Any of you give any thoughts on how much dirt and weight you move on any given day to get those targets? I can tell you that it's a lot. Nevertheless, it was worth it. My friend found 2 gold and one junk ring and I managed to pull a 14k with 10 diamonds and a platinum wedding band. It was a good way to start off the New Year.

If you can break the ice just take the scoop and cut sheets out..20 x 20 then push them under the other ice. Where you live I'm surprised you can crack the stuff. We were out last week and it was about a inch thick, took us about 30 minutes to clear a larger area. Then we found nothing..

Never went further south than West Palm. Maybe I need to expand my range a bit. They look like they're almost new. Must be pretty recent. Great find, Congrats!!!

Very nice. I was at a local beach and used a rock chisel to chisel out 3 Zincolns and a tiny gold bead.
