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.

The only reason I left when I did EVERY day is I'm 65. and those are only the good holes. There were a lot more holes!

thanks . Bob.

Wow! Did you find the silvers in pockets or did you walk a new deep cut? Did you have to work through a lot of garbage as well? Many of these on the surface? Sorry for all of the questions, just trying to live vicariously through your amazing hunt. Congrats!
