My buddy George and I hit the beach this morning. Started around 5:30 a.m. and finished up around 9:30. Scooping up the clad in hopes of some jewelry when I got a deep coin signal. Surprised to see a 1859 seated dime. Pretty beat up, but still somewhat readable. Also got my first Euro coin,a junk ring, a small Angel charm, and some other doodads. It all adds up.

Mike,
Great job on the beach finds. It looks like that one item is a silver bezel. I wonder if it held a coin at one time.

I'm still waiting for my first seated coin.
