New to the forum, but, I thuink I've read every post on it! I don't understand why some of you guys get downright hostle about some of the things people say they find. Even if they are exaggerating,so what. I just came back from a week in the Keys and did pretty well.
In 22 hours of sand fishing I found a total of four 1 reale coins, 1- 4 reale and a cooper mariveda. Im not going to say where I was, although I will say it was at a place where I personally never heard of any Spanish coins being found and I'm not going to post a picture, that way I dont have to be told Im full of crap. I will say that I found them in a spot that just screamed to be hunted. Also, found what might be an encrusted silver toothpick that I'm having professioanly restored. So what Im saying is I diont think Florida beaches are hunted out. You just have to not look in the same old places. And once again these were all beach finds,. I hate water and sharks. For those of you who are not going to belive me, EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT!!!

Do you really expect us to believe that? Just kidding, congrats. :D
 

I can't recall seeing someone getting hostile about finds, lol! We sometimes do get hostile about machinery and downright chicanery, though! Lots of scam artists out there, and no one wants to see a fellow detectorist get taken; especially those who have been taken before.... >:(

Anyways, nice finds, hope you get more, and plenty at that! HH!
 

The internet is a (mostly) free place so you will have all kinds of people around, just like in real life and even more so, becaus some people can appear on the internet, that may never interact with others in real life. We are all happy to see pics of any beach finds! Sometimes you just get a funny gutt feeling, if shiny Morgan Dollars or Spanish Coins from Alaska show up in someone's post. As a result, someone may not get too many replies on their post, or a casual "Yeah right" but that's about it. Happy hunting everybody and let's see some nice pics.
 

Now, I would have believed Martian Puka Shells, but not spanish money, got to be HOGWASH!! ;) Congrats on ypur finds, I am still looking for my first silver coin. I can't agree more with you on not hunting the same old places.
