Hi all , Hope your day was a good one. I had a full day of detecting. This morning i hit a park I've never been to ( http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/601399-another-park-another-silver-ring.html ). Did good.
After lunch and a nap i went to the beach. No cut , just slope. But there was this flat spot that was about 10x20 where the sand was rippled. Every where else was slopped and smooth. The rippled sand was hard , the smooth sand was soft. The rippled spot was darker than the sand around it. I started at one end and the first target was a nickle then a sinker then another sinker and it kept going. In the end i pulled 9 sinkers , 7 quarters , 6 nickles , 4 dimes and 6 pennies from a center strip down the spot. I didn't find anything on the slope except pull tabs and foil.
Was this one of those spots i've read about where heavy stuff accumulates? I think i had found one. I grid'd the area over and over hoping for gold!

Notice all the lugs on the sinkers have dissolved.
