I hunted with my Garrett Ace 250 and had it set on jewelry but discriminated the notch just to the left of nickel. I was finding a lot of change and some junk jewelry when I got a quarter signal about 8" deep in damp sand. I dug down and came up with this old room key fob made of brass! I was way excited and took it to the museum at the beach and they said it could have been from the Seashore Hotel or the Oceanic Hotel circa 1920's!
I love this hobby!!!
