I pulled over on the highway for a quick stop and spotted a little beach that I had wanted to detect for years and years. The wife gave me an hour (we were still 2 hours from home). Fifty-five minutes later I was two silvers and two wheaties richer and some other junk. I guess I will have to check this place out again.

Nice little 1hr hunt you had. :icon_thumright:
That nickel is sure beat to death, are you sure it's a nickel or could it be something else?

Glad you had time to find some silver
