Wednesday morning I was getting ready to drive up to Oxnard, Ca to check out two lots that have been good to me over the years when I heard a text come in on my phone. My friend Bill Paxton gave me a heads up that it might be a good idea to give Zuma a try, he thought their might be a good cut. As you can see by the picture he hit the nail on the head. When I got there their were coins all over the place. I mean some were just laying on the sand, and to top it all not another detector in sight.
I had so much fun on Wednesday that I went back today and another friend joined me. He ended up with 3 silver halves (two were walkers) and a buffalo, and some other goodies.
My two day take was one walker half, clad half, 5 silver quarters, 8 silver dimes (1 barber, 2 mercs, and 5 silver rosies), 2 buffalo nickels, 1 wheat penny, 1 silver ring, 1 gold ring (yesterday), 1 gold chain (today) stamped Italy (18kt), 1 silver pendant, junk ring, some type of token, and misc other items. Plus a ton of clad. The silver coins are toasted but they still count in my book.
The silver dimes and lot of the clad dimes were very thin. The silver dimes came in at 12-38, 39, and 40 (used the CTX 3030). Must have been because they were thin
Two mornings of detecting and I didn't see another detector (except my buddy) until I was leaving today around 11. A first for me was the walker at the beach and also my first 18kt gold chain.
