Hit the surf today...after my wife told me to get help for my ADDICTION! So I did, I went metal detecting. More about "my addiction" later. Surf site said "Flat" but one footers hit me all day long, just enough to keep me off-balance. My legs are still wobbly 4 hrs after detecting. Decided to concentrate on spots in the trough that felt rough to my feet (with diver boots on). Many of my scoops had a lot of shells and stones; love both since they slow down things from going to the center of the Earth. And it paid off.
I sometimes use Discrimination to check for iron before digging. I didn't have to check this target. It rang sweet and sharp. The large yellow gold ring has 10 diamonds and is marked "14K" and "ZEI". My second gold ring for 2017.
So far this year I have totalled 490 coins and 2 pieces of gold, making my coin-to-gold ratio 240 to 1. My long term average is 250-300 coins per gold piece so I'm doing fine so far this year. Luckily, even though I found a Cremation tag this year, I treated it with respect and returned it to the Gulf. Obviously, no hard feelings. Metal detecting is good.
