Jamaica trip

[CASPER-2]

not as good as I had hoped.
When I got in small beach at my resort -I could see recent scoop marks ...someone was there the week before
and not only at my resort -
to make things worse.. after I was in about an hour - here's comes another hunter...I'm sure just as thrilled to see me
only other time I had to share with another TH'er was when I went on vacay with Whydah to Mex., but that was planned
(I did good there..here are finds from that trip plus one not pictured I returned )

but back to this trip
our resort beach was small - luckily I got the only 2 rings the other guy left - one a 22k band -the other a tungsten one
next day went to another spot - once again about 1 1/2 hr later - here comes the other guy again. Once again I could see scoop marks from
week before most likely - Once again was lucky to come out with another 2 missed - one a 10k band -the other one junk
Next day got thrown out of a spot that I had gotten bunch of gold last yr at - though I was in my rights to stay - did not want to put up the fight to do so - went to another spot...which I got about 80% of my coins at - but nothing but junk jewelry there - its a local swim hole
- next morn early - went to resort nextdoor - there about 2 hrs and got a platinum band. Later on in the day went to another resort and got a palladium band, a portugese 7 ring silver band, a crusty large silver band, and a silver heart and few other pieces of silver jewelry and another tungsten band. Next day was a bust - rough waters and rotten bottom - my gal ended up swimming with the dolphins. Was going to hunt early my last day but hands and feet were bloated so just went down to the buffet before packing it up. was hoping to do better - could've done worse.
coin count was 336 - lot of scooping

Wow, super nice finds. How do you get those finds back through customs?

Looks like you scooped enough to pay for the trip Casper. You make we want to move to a warmer climate and sell my 1280x and upgrade to the CZ21.

 

[Subterranean]

Every precious metal was represented in your loot, congrats on a great "playcation." Sub

HEY GHOST YOU REALLY CLEANED UP ON SOME FINDS .....

Wow, super nice finds. How do you get those finds back through customs?

coins I carry on - put it in with my detector bag this trip-
jewelry I carry on separately - specially the keepers
make sure any lead and knives and other things they might not allow in carry ons is put in suit cases
I have had dive weights ive found confiscated out of my carry ons
did not want to add weight to my suit case - so put them in carry on and they took them saying I could use as a weapon
some wouldn't care if they took them but I had 2 and they go for like $20 a piece sooooo
if I find any expensive jewelry - will have my gal wear it or put in her pocketbook or I will wear if possible

Awesome finds Casper. Your palladium, platinum and 22K rings are stunning. I think you had a very successful trip
