So I hit the same spot last night and today. Dimes everywhere! Yesterday (106) dimes...today (75). That's a total of (356) dimes from the same spot. :laughing7:
My friend Dave coined the phrase 'The Bermuda Triangle Of Dimes'. I did pull the remnants of a silver spoon and 1936-P wheatie.

Last night and today's finds........IMG_2472.JPGIMG_2476.JPG

Here's a couple of pics from today...

It has everything to do with weight and size and tides, currents and wind. The beach is a natural sifter of metalic objects and stones. It arranges them by specific gravity. Ie, heavier items in one concentrated location and lighter items in other locations.
most of your finds are relative light. Another area might produce lead weights and heavy gold jewelry.

This makes sense

Yep, it's called a Vortex.
Congratulations
 

Wow!!! That’s a lot of dimes.! Better tumble them so they’ll work in the machine. Rolling that many dimes will be a chore:icon_scratch:
 

I’ve heard of people having a diamond mine but, you've got yourself a dime mine. Pretty cool.

Got change for a dollar? Lol

I always enjoy the end of the year clad clean up. Sometime near Christmas I start tumbling my clad finds. It's an all day affair. Everything gets hand wrapped and deposited at the bank.
Got a keep that ten percent the coinstar machine takes...

Every year I pick out a nice graded Half Eagle Liberty or Indian Head on Ebay and put it away.
 

I’ve been taking My Wife out to a good dinner with My yearly clad that I tumble. I hand roll mine also, but whoa that’s a lot of dimes!! Maybe I can talk My Wife into a Nice coin every year for the collection.
 

Now thats a lot of clad ! Better you found them in the sand than the dirt.
 

Way to go Rich. That's a lot of digging. I had one day there with 400 dimes. Sometimes scoop had 3 dimes in it. Thankfully most less than 4 inches deep. only one dime was silver. Keep having fun there
 

Keep digging, one of my lake spots the older coins appeared deeper after getting all the newer stuff out of the way. Nice finds, you gotta love being able to find that many coins! I seen a couple earrings and a ring in the mix, sooner or later might find the gold deposit.
 

The dimes were "running" just like the grunion! :laughing7:
 

What is the range of the dates ?
 

wow, outstanding amount of coins in one area! :occasion14:
