I got in for 2nd hunt of this year...got more silver

[CASPER-2]

going to doc tommorow to find out when i go under the knife
so went out again - went back to where i found halves last week
my GF pulled me out of the water for an appointment and
felt there might be some more there...I was right
was hoping for gold but not to be
one of the first finds was old lipstick case which was down like anfoot and a half
then got a silver quarter...then some wheats... small silver band...then caked silver Merc
little while later in area near where I got the 2 brownish silver halfs last week
got deep brownish silver quarter- was working the shallower water and got faint signal and
was surprised with another silver half
bout an hour after i was in - another hunter showed up
he hit the left side and i was hunting right which holds more older finds
after a couple hrs he left and I moved down to search for fresh drops
I got a loud hit and pulled a fresh drop 925 celtic ring he some how missed - when
i looked under i could see a scoop hole bout 2ft away
was swinging towards knee deep (I use extra long Anderson rod ) - got another
surface hit - bent over and stuck my face in and saw glint of gold poking out of sand
got excited - thought i had a gold band...Not. Gold plated designer ring - stamped made in France
bet it wasnt cheap but not gold
I also pulled some older newer coins others had missed - sand on left side is soft and deeper
than that on the right - that brought sand in in that area yrs ago and very rare to getting any of real age
there (years ago it looked like a boat came in close and blew out a small area with prop and I got old gold and
100 yr old coins but that was like 15yrs ago)
Knowing the history of a beach can bee very important sometimes...I would saw 99% of hunters here dont know its history
Some that do - probably heard it from me

Rare sight seeing me hunt in this close - usually you'd me lucky to see my snorkel and very top of head when i hunt way out
but the deeper waters were quite - so went where the targets were
Im holding my half

Here's everything
funny - night before I dreamt I found a doorknob - should have dreamt of gold rings
notice old bathing cap snaps - you find these made of brass...they are usually pre WW II
a good sign
piece of glass is very old - has bubbles in the glass - so also a good sign

Something else I found the other day...got left out of pic
reason being is my GF walked over to talk to me to tell me there was another hunter in the water
I walked in to about knee deep to hear her and got a loud blast - this is what i scooped up
I tossed it to her - she looked for markings but there were none - she said it looked home/custom
made probably from a local jeweler I will have to find my silver tester
I forgot about it because she put it on and didnt give it back to me till now
the inside you can see rough tooling - look at closely with loupe - no markings
too lite to be aluminum

I enjoy your posts very much. Great effort...great finds! I hope your medical stuff doesn't put to out of action for too long.
Best of luck!
