Great Day at The Beach!
Came home with some booty! A single 14k earring (with a white shiny stone! Diamond? Who knows) ...glad I re-checked the hole though, the back of the earring was in there too! That has never happened to me before.
Also a .925 necklace, "Agatha" & "made in France" imprint with a dog charm on the necklace. Also some clad pocket change.
Every Trip to the Beach is different with success in different locations, the last hunt was successful by the water, this time, we found the necklace by the new sidewalk at the back of the beach towards the parking lot and the earring towards the middle of the beach where folks congregate, play and lay out. A Great Day!

Here's some Video of our dig. Took my GoPro along for the 1st time Metal Detecting, the "Booty of the day" shot is at 1:57


The trouble was my camera battery was low, so I kept turning it on & off and you get excited when you hear a good signal on the metal detector, so there were times that I "thought" I was shooting Video, but in reality, I wasn't.
I edited out all the "Beach Trash" We did our part to help clean up the beach with bottle tops, pull tabs etc. but overall it was a fairly "clean" beach. No fish hooks, but there was a nasty mangled aluminum can just below the surface we found too, that could have cut up someones foot pretty bad, at least I saved someone some unnecessary foot pain! Thanks for the feedback
