I SPENT THE LAST FIVE DAYS IN THE DRINK

[against the wind]

Well at least it wasn't in a Bar,, lol
Monday and Tuesday, the Temperatures were 80 degrees. The water Temps are 79 degrees and the low tide this week is perfect. It gains an hour each day, so all week it was good.
On Monday I scooped out 64 coins with 2 rings, One of those ring is a 925 Silver with a nice blue stone. It was really deep and came out Black. Took a bit of cleaning before I found the 925 stamp.


Tuesday's hunt gave me 81 additional coins. A junk ring, 3 hoop earrings and a key.


Wednesday and Thursday the temps climbed to 85. Glad I was in the water.
Wednesday I scooped out 81 coins, a fake pearl bracelet, a "Best Half Medallion", and a pair of Sunglasses.

Thursday added 75 more coins, including a 1956d wheat penny, a brass chain that looked gold when I saw it in the scoop, 3 junk earrings, and a pair of Armani Exchange sunglasses. I also recovered a small Ying Yang medallion, which is always a good sign.


Friday brought the lowest tide of the year so far. This would allow me to get a little further out. I got to what I call "The Ledge" It is actually a slippery mucky bottom and in my opinion, should be where the older stuff lays. The Temperature on Friday went up to 90 degrees. Again I was glad I was in the water.
This hunt added 44 coins to the scoop, along with a 3 ounce sinker, a toe ring, and a pair of Prescription Eyeglasses, (complete with barnacles).
One find that stumped me at first is a half of a Pendant. It says "ST over SINS",, The other half of that heart shaped pendant should say, BE over COU. Put them together and you get 'BEST COUSINS"

Love that silver ring with the blue stone, congrats! No better place to spend summer's end than in the water keeping cool, and it looks like you had a blast.

 

[treblehunter]

Nice work buddy, I love that water hunting and that blue stone ring is pretty!

 

[Diggin Dude]

You've been one busy beaver in that water! LOL

I really like that ring with the Blue stone looks awesome, and old. Congrats on the great finds! Congrats and HH

 

[Subterranean]

Sweet haul, ATW! That sterling ring is a looker. I find so many of those "half hearted" pendants at schools, usually half of a "Best Friends" set. That is the first "Best Cousins" set I have seen! Congrats. Sub

ATW...I think the other half of the pendant says "MO over RAI"....for MOST RAISINS...maybe the owner was addicted to dried grapes...lol...but on a serious note, looks like you had a great time! Love the rings, especially the one with the blue stone...ddf

 

[david680]

No, you got it right, Best Cousins, dropped by visitors from Kentucky! However, it could be "First Cousins".

 

[trapperart]

Some nice hunts for sure congrats

 

[tomhighland]

Wow that was a busy week, congratulations on all your finds. I am in agreement, first cousins.

Way to go ATW. Those were some good outings.

Impressive totals, against the wind. Wish I had low tides and similar sands to hunt. Looks like you are doing the best with what you've got. Re: the blue ring...aquamarine?

 

[deershed]

Sweet hunts!! That's a lot of targets and that silver ring is Sweet!!

 

[scruggs]

Wow...that's a lot of targets! Like those kinds of hunts...way to go!!!

 

[CoilyGirl]

Great finds! I like how you have the rings on a paper clip. I never know how to show them off besides in my chubby little fingers.
