Plenty of silver on that beach, great result! Were you working a cut or were they just normal beach finds? :Y:

Hi mate
Yes that part of the beach got smashed due to some strong winds and some big swells it was a foot or more off the area I've only been there 3 or 4 times and ive never seen the sand that stripped :Y: I got really excited when I first seen it :Y:

Thanks for that, got to hit those areas after storm pronto before others clean out such areas. Might do the same down here with the recent weather, haven't done beach detect for ages. Problem is the 200km round trip to do so.

Hi GP that's a big round trip mate.
Beach is so hit or miss in my area .This is more like a little cove and the concentration of coins is only a small area. All those coins came from a 10mtr x 10mtr patch that's full of square copper nails it still took me about 4hrs to work that small area but I felt confident I didn't leave to much on the day..But theres a lot more down deeper just need more sand to strip away :Y:

I feel that pain ....
Ive always got an eye on the weather, and get excited when i know the big seas ( directional ) are ripping the sand from hot spots i know so well.
But its so bloody far (far enough anyway ,for the time available)

Florin turned out ok compared to what it was like.
From this.
To this.Just a few hours in salt and vinegar to break up the crust.Then 24hrs in the LJ :Y:
And I must say I do love the grey colour that some of these sea silvers get :Y:

It has come up well hasn't it-good work.

Cheers Dan :Y:

Hi All
Thought I'd go over that little beach I did last weekend to see what else popped out through the week.Think I will need to wait till we get a big storm before heading back...But I still had fun even though there wasn't many finds...The more I use the Nox and fine tune it to my liking the more it surprises me...Got this thrippy on the third scoop ...easy 10inches with a clear solid tone Y: Not sure what the pennies are yet I think ones a roo though.

If your still getting them , keep going

Very sweet little hunt :Y:

Nice hunt smoky :Y: Must have been a popular beach back in the day

Always dig the lower tones that match the sovs mate Unfortuanatly it's all been junk so far :Y:

Hi Guys
As usual no plan... just get to the intersection and make a spontainious decesion.
Turn left or turn right :Y:
Got some fuel money anyway :Y: All those bbs were the full length of the digger down in clay..The goodies were mostly moon bakers :Y: Cheers

It's always good to cover your costs.

Good hunt :Y:
