Retired in May and bought my first metal detector in August. Hit the beach Thursday for seven hours and came up with somewhere between $11.00-$12.00 in clad, metal cars, golf ball, spoon, fishing sinkers, 925 ring (looks old and I know nothing about the stones), fake wedding ring set, and some other stuff. I just throw it all in a bucket and look at it when I get home. My wife started in on the treasure while I hit the couch for some rest time. I have found 3-4 silver rings, a 10K gold ring and a few wheat pennies but was still looking for my first silver coin. Wife tells me that she thinks I found something good. "Yeah right," was my reply. She said, "well it is dated 1899." I shot up off the couch to see my first silver coin--a barber quarter.
