I went to a beach yesterday to hunt that I haven't hunted in a long time, wife wanted to go along and invited one of her co-workers and her daughters so we made a day of it.

I don't think the beach we went to has been hunted in a long time, right from the start I was finding lots of coins, a lot of of them were green coins, lots of targets, a lot of dimes, nickles and quarters, I hoped that meant there would be lots of gold, unfortunately I was only able to find one piece of nice gold, an 18k 3.7 g white gold wedding band, but with the price of gold what it is, it still comes in at $145.53 melt value... Also found a silver belly ring too.....

I was using the excal with the sef 12x15" butterfly coil this time to hunt, i usually swap out one time it is the wot, next time it is the sef butterfly coil..... Surf was way to rough to get in the water past your knees, it was all of at least 4 foot surf rolling in with wind gusts of 15mph+...

Any day at the beach is better than cleaning out the garage. Glad you found some coins and gold.:thumbsup:
