Hi all!

I was in Ocean City, MD for the last two weeks, and here's a few pics of my finds. I mostly hunted at low tide, but occassionally went up to the towel-line. I tried "Coin Beach" in Delaware one morning, but not much luck.

Overall, I found about $31 in change, 4 rings (2 silver, 1 Tungsten carbide), 1 toe ring (says 925, but does not ring up silver on my machine), an interesting owl pendant, many sinkers (I gave them all to the fishermen that I passed), quite a few interesting shells (I had one banner day where there were a TON of shells on the beach....also found a lot of rings that day), and I also posted a gratuitous picture of the junk that I pulled.

One thing that I found, which was pretty cool, was a 1 g bar, minted by the US Coast Guard, of 0.999 pure silver. Neat! 20140714_101258.jpg 20140720_210258.jpg 20140720_095659.jpg 20140720_090528.jpg 20140718_210828.jpg 20140717_063621.jpg 20140717_062613.jpg 20140717_060648.jpg 20140715_083339.jpg 20140725_214254.jpg 20140725_214350.jpg 20140725_214753.jpg 20140725_082538.jpg

All in all, I had a fun time hunting the area. I could definitely tell when the beach was sanded in and I wasn't going to find much of anything....which was most of the 2nd week that I was there.

I'm curious if others had the same experience.

Pretty nice Masonic ring and owl pin. Looks like you did more than your part of beach cleaning.

fantastic haul, you clobbered my meager finds!, I was at 52-56th streets most of the time, but did hit the 12-18th street boardwalk area one morning, way to go!!!
