Hi to all:hello:
I so long didn't write the story about my adventure, but now I am back! I was going to the beach this morning and my mother asked me where I was going; I told her I was going to the beach to see if there was any changes to the beach. When I got there I saw one small area that the sand was down and I returned with my metal detector real fast! The first target was a gold ring with a stone in it!! It was a short hunt and I ended up with 23 coins and 2 pull tabs...here are some pictures for you to see; thank you for looking at my finds.

Hi Hamid.. Nice to see when you show only one ring. Most of the time you have so many it is hurting my eyes and my pride.

That's for sure a great ring...is it 18K?

I'm also curious if you can usually spend the coins after cleaning?

I don't think so Sonny.
Have not been able to treasure hunt the last few months and have not found anything?
It's more about being at the right place at the right time.
While the amount of time does not matter when searching in the wrong place.
At the beach all Yah gotta do is get your coil over it and dig dig dig, then often dig some more.
Don't forget to fill the holes, as yah don't want anyone to loose their pet
