Jumped back in again this morning...another old gold!

[CASPER-2]

Low tide was at sunrise ...630am - so got in as the tide would be turning - wind had picked up during the night
waters were rougher but viz was still pretty good. At about 7am I got a good reading and dug a sinker - about a foot away
I got another good signal ...though a little fainter. Scooped down about a foot and this time there was no doubt I had gold.
Because this one was 14k, it came out nice and shiny. Real nice old signet. Nothing to exciting after that - was only getting pennies
and then got a few other coins but nothing to write home about. The small silver ring was down real deep. Don't know if the other one is a ring or not
-looks home made. Waters got horrible real quick and all of a sudden where I was chest deep - I was getting swells that were over my head.
Looked at the shore line and though it was only an hour after low - waters were now reaching up to the high tide mark on shore.
I slugged it out for another 1/2 hour and call it quits. So I only got to hunt for 1 1/2 hrs - had planned on 3, but I got some gold
and was happy!
got another musket ball - first I ever got from this spot

Casper...
I think you may have just found a real oldie there...
The brown one should be cleaned a.s.a.p. Carefully...
Repost after...

P>S> I would work that spot if I were you... hard.

Live 2 1/2 hrs away from this spot (so 5 hrs driving and that's with perfect weather and traffic) to hunt for a couple of hrs
- don't get down there as much as Id like

Sounds like a tent and some Ramen noodles is in order then :P
OR...
A cheap motel with a McDonalds or some other fast food nearby :P

Awesome job brother! Funny how nobody needs to twist our arm to do this hobby...whether it's inclement weather conditions, tides, health issues, tiredness, etc....it just don't matter. Love the commitment! That old gold signet is beautiful, looks pretty chunky too. Congrats!

It would be great to see a seal ring when you have a chance to clean up the brown ring.

That is a gorgeous gold ring! I guess you wear a full dry suit up there in New England? Went to Plum Island,Mass. For 2 weeks last Summer and went in the water for about 10 minutes total- water was way too cold!! Nice hunt!

Beautiful signet. The silver looks like a real tease in its current state.
