Here is what I found:

1 nice purple car
1 nice pull tab (who the heck wants it!
1 Bottle cap
1 shot cap

Something tells me, these wont be my last, LOL

What a fun night. Have not been out in a few weeks so it was great to do it again, even though not a penny was found!

I saw some videos of Hot Wheels and Matchbox restorations and was stoked by the results. Hot Wheels always bring good memories ;)

Hello again everyone,

Think I will just keep this thread going, instead of continuously starting a new one..lol

Anyway went out again the night before last. I did post this on another thread but am going to add the pics here as well.
Part to a bike or something...

Piece of tinfoil, think this would qualify as junk, right? lol

My second pull tab....

A rusty bolt of some sort

beat up quarter! Well for me it is as I have found as many pulls tabs thus far. Still tons of fun however!

Tonigt I decided that I needed a sand shovel as most of my detecting has been at a local beach. So I bought one, along with a 12" SERRATED EDGE METAL DETECTING GARRETT MINELAB GARDEN DETECTOR TOOL. Found it on ebay for cheap

If anyone is looking for these cheap, here are the links:
Garden detector tool
12" SERRATED EDGE DIGGER METAL DETECTING GARRETT MINELAB GARDEN DETECTOR TOOL | eBay
Sand scooper
Tough Durable Black Plastic Beach Sand Scoop Metal Detector Water / Sand Scoop | eBay

No clue why one link is shorter, but let me know what you guys think and I will tell you if they are worth the cheap money I paid for them.

Thanks,
PP

Well my lucky streak is continuing or I am learning something finally, lol. Found 4 coins, and my first piece of jewelry. First nickels x3 and 1 dime. Not to bad. Pretty sure the earring I found is fake. But still cool to find! Sad thing is the most beat up nickel is the newest, a 2000P the others are 1964 and 1978. Dime is clad also 1998. Happy hunting everyone!

Well I finally got to go out tonight, I went to a local beach, honestly, was not expecting much, but I did find some sea glass for a friend

as well as some rocks I thought were cool. The one on the bottom right is quiet interesting to me, possible fossil?
20170913_021454.jpg
Followed by trash...
20170913_021354.jpg
But wait there is more ...trash, lol
