09/04 Beach Gold/Penny Hoard

[DewGuru]

Ran a solo mission down to the beach this AM ... I was early, so was the high tide... Forgot the darn headlight ... Doh ... Right at surf line, took signal ... after signal ... after signal ... after signal ... After an hour of digging non stop for over an hour, I was plumb wore out, and left the signals there - it was all pennies - at least an area 50 foot long, 2 ft wide ... Hated leaving signals, but if I kept at it, would have no arm left for the surf ... Found 129 pennies total before giving it up.

Surf wasn't much better - rough ... Scored few coins, a silver bling earring, and a gold plated bracelet.

Happy Hunting!

Glad to see I'm not the only one who has had a penny day like that. The school I used to hunt back in VA, there was a 10' by 100' strip between two drains... pulled a few hundred pennies from there, it was nuts. Took about 3 days to get em all before that area went silent.

Congrats on the clad and the rest of your haul

Man, maybe there is an evil detectorist in your area who is angered by your presence in his territory and is applying a string of pennies trap to distract you from the good stuff he is digging while you are busy!
