I hit the beaches hard for 2 days following the hurricane. I searched several areas from Melbourne to Ft Pierce and discovered that as a treasure hunter I'm a pretty good shell collector.

When we are in Florida and the grand kids come down - first thing they want to do is go to the beach and collect shells!
 
Treasure comes in all kinds of form. I like them, and so does my family. I collect shells while metal detecting too and bring them back to the family. But sometimes I see folks looking for shells at the beach and I give them to them. I have some good memories doing this, sometimes they kids with their parents other times they are older folks that love shells.

Really love those shells.
 
what did those shells ring up at? :laughing7:
 
all joking aside, i imagine there are some petty serious shell collectors out there. prob have their own web site, forums, etc.
 
a guy told me he puts a few good shells in his pouch for when he engages a female in conversation. Apparently, a good shell is irresistible.

Btw, you aren't the guy who broke his scoop up in Melbourne, are you?

Oh there are. I dive live shells for the collectors sometimes. Always looking for the cowrys. Those are the spotted ones in the upper left.
