Three days I could not get under the pier, the water was so high from all the storms we had.
I was down in the Chesapeake with OBN yesterday, he found a 1944 Washington I found a couple wheats. It was so rough it was hard to stand and metal detect. I had one signal that ended up being two horseshoe crabs stuck together with a fishing weight/line tangled around them (most interesting find yet)

Today I was under the pier for two hours, I started digging iron signals to get them out of the way, that's how I found the 1957 Washington Quarter. I put a pic of an old mask I found the first day I could not get under the pier.

Enjoy the pix

Seems like a rough way to pull some cool targets. Did you free the crabs? Congrats on those silvers. :thumbsup: The goggles are cool.

I nailed that one side, those brass buttons sound sweet, after I found that in my scoop, I checked the hole and there was nothing. At the time I never thought to re-scoop the hole I might of got the other lens if I had thought about it

Scored on more silver, Sweet!!
Thanks, wish it was seated.

That mask is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like it too, thanks
