Hello everyone,I was able to take advantage of last weeks nor easter damage to the R.I. Shoreline Friday mourning and was handsomely rewarded.
Right away I started getting signals in the high range which for us minelab users spells good things. One after the other came out these crusty discs. Most only able to be determined as dime or quarter or half and Dollar! There was no resting, it was unreal. I was desperate for some low tones but wasn't getting any. After a couple of nickles I dug a great low tone and popped my first gold ring and tiny is an understatement. But checking the hole there was still a signal and i scored a second tiny gold! Sweet.
Here are pics of day one. Zapped and tumbed for effect. No key dates before tumbling DSCN3362.JPG 27 silver,3 W.L;s ,Q's,dimes,2 gold rings.
DSCN3363.JPG

Not to be long winded so here are days 2 and 3. In the crusty state. day 2 scored another ring and a Peace Dollar.
DSCN3364.JPG Day 3 coins,2 silver rings,one silver religios medal. Unreal ,8.5 hours hunting total. I'm now officially crippled!

But these help the Pain. DSCN3369.JPG

DSCN3371 - Copy.JPG I think I buffed the top of a compass on the ring,2 downward lines barely visable under bird?
DSCN3372.JPG DSCN3376.JPG

Thanks for looking and HH!!

Totals 1 peace dollar, 3 WL halves, 14 wash. Q's ,1 SL Q ,27 merc's, 16 rosies, 2 silver rings, 3 gold rings, 1 silver cross medal.

Holy frickin smokes dude, this is unreal!!!!! I'm voting banner for your sheer tenacity and volume of finds. Maybe a collective group shot of it all together?
I agree - Banner 3 days
banner shouldn't be just for singular good finds - should be for great days and great trips too :notworthy:

Have you hit this beach before? Was the sand visably shifted off lower? Just trying to learn a little about a beaches reaction to storms in a md sense......blown away seeing you pull three golds and an old silver in three days not to mention the hige hoarde of coins.......so impressed with your hunt. You said two golds in the same hole? Wow.......you really know when your on the right chanel when that happens

Hi and thanks for the comments. Thats my 2nd fav. hunting spot. The sand was GONE huge rocks showing were it is usually all sand, thats when the hunting is awesome.
Noreasters move sand here in RI>. Winter and spring storms are best.When you are getting targets every step u have to let some regular coin sounds pass and go for the low and very high tones.(Minelab tones that is.) Bob.

I've never had a banner posted. the button to vote banner is right there at the header of your post,(small red rectangle in the brown header over on the right.)
A few people said they were nominating for banner but I don't see anything related to those votes?
Thanks Bob

My banner vote is in!! I'm pretty sure you need a certain amount of votes but I'm not sure what that number is. Great hunt!! How fast does the sand fill back in?
