lots of hunters in the Tampa area....great job by you!
 

Yup when i was on beach two other guys were as well.they had bigger detector then me but my ace 250 found me some gold
 

Nice gold find.
 

Great find!

Which beach, may I ask?
I used to live there before I got into this hobby.
Still kicking myself about that.
I know Clearwater and all the beaches up and down A1A are the main ones, but I always thought Ben T. Davis beach on the causeway might hold more great jewelry than many suspect.
It is more of a working man's beach but it actually gets tons of visitors.
Free parking, too.
Also the water is very shallow going way out from the beach so there could be great targets everywhere.
Plus, that shallow water is a great place to hunt for blue crabs.....hmmmm.

Yep. Remember that! It's not the detector, it's the hand behind it!

Many happy returns!
 

Very fine piece of jewelry!
 

Nice gold! Nice score on a well hunted beach!

That makes you a true 49er gold miner today
 

Super Gold Find!
 

And it was warm too. Congratulations!
 

The number one rated beach in America. I think it was pier 61 or something like that
 

I used to live in the area too. I detected Ben T Davis lots and lots of pull tabs but alot off coins too
