There were only a couple pieces of rusted hulls, nothing worth photographing. The AT Pro only picked up a bunch of rust, big rust, and the trusty pulls tabs. I did find some stones, I think they are Carnelia Agate. They range from yellow to orange and are all translucent. I do not know gems and minerals very well, but if someone does, please comment!

Pretty average but looks like you have white chalcedony and moonstone in there as well.
 
carnelian usually is redder...in any case, whatever you call them, they are all fun to find
 
Nice finds, fun day hunting, congrats! :occasion14:
 
Those would be great to tumble. Gary

We are currently tumbling for the kids, we have lots of jasper and quarts they found. These are already smooth and shiny and sound like glass, I like them they way they are, haha.
 
Looks like a lot of agate in there! My father in law hunts for agates a lot, we even do family trips to his spots in the summer. You did well to pick those up.
 
Awesome finds good the kids enjoy rocks also. I would love to hunt Shipwreck Beach ya never know what might wash ashore. Nice finds though Stay safe.......Tommy
