Yep,, yesterday was a break from the high temps and humidity as well as the thunderstorms we have been plagued with. Although it was overcast, I decided to get to a beach that I have had my eye on for some time. When I got there, I noticed that the tide was just starting to go out. I wanted to get as deep as possible. On the low tide at this beach you can walk out 200 to 300 feet from the high water mark. It has been my experience that the heavier coins and targets will be found further out.
The water was rough and although this is a bay beach, quite a few waves splashed over my shoulders. There was a slight constant wind. I still managed to have a good hunt. My very first target was a nice stainless steel ring. It was followed by an abundance of targets and although I got pushed around a little, I enjoyed the day. It was so good to get out. I'll give this beach another week and hit it again at Low Tide.

It's too hot to walk the sand in a wetsuit. I try to stay
in chest deep water.
Those are all targets from the water.

I thought it was silver when I saw it in the scoop.
Checked it thoroughly at home and couldn't find any silver stamps. Maybe next time.

I remember those long, flat, low tide beaches! Very long walks! Sometimes, a hurry to get back in when the tide switches a little quicker than expected. :)

Kind of love hunting the water, but, it's just so much work for me anymore. :dontknow:

Only one old coin? Certainly has to be more hiding. Hopefully some gold also. You found a lot of targets. Nice
