And people wonder why we spend so much on machines for the pennies we retrieve

i put this in the Beach and Shallow Water thread because that's where I found beauty.

Over this past week I went out 3 days straight, with two of them dirt digging and one dip into the water yesterday. Over all I retrieved $6.86 in clad. Used the CTX on land, and then the Excal fresh water. I found a couple cheap jewerly (kinda) items.

We were tired of the targets being in rock crevices and ten scoops to finally retrieve them. We decided to give it up and I swung a couple more times and hit a signal. Retrieved this one in the first scoop - last scoop of the day.

It is stamped 925

We do this though sometimes it's difficult work, and pennies just are a little better than a disappointment.

And sometimes we find something that delights us :)

Yea, but then I don't want to quit because if I find something on my last search of the day, there must be more nearby! :)

Yea, but we had had enough, and I just had to wade over to that beach bunny who was so interested in what we were doing. She and her friend were quite dazzled! We hit that spot about every two weeks. May be seeing her again I'd think, even more curious!

I can dream can't I?
 
That's beautiful. Er.....what is it?? :dontknow:
 
Awesome score! Love when that happens! The jewelry not the babe. Lol!

That's a real beauty. I don't know why but it's happened to me several times. I'm finished for the day and while I'm walking off the beach just swinging my detector for the hell of it I've hit on several nice targets. That really completes my day but nothing as nice as yours. Congrats.
 
Yes, it's a ring.

And the gal who lost it had large fingers! But, it's light at 4.1 grams.

I make a plea to all those swimmers out there, don't worry about taking your rings off. We'll find them.
 
I find many pennies on the sidewalk, streets and in parks without a metal detector.
 
Heck yeah! Nice bling!
 
Cool...hard to leave when you just got lucky...but you were thinking about getting lucky... :occasion14:
