Got out last night for a swing and dug deep deep targets well over 40cm deep.. First target was 50c then I had to wait a good 30mins to find a patch of deep coins, 1c 2c then little baby Silver Signet ring which was just big enough to not fall through the holes in the scoop.
Coins were all in a 5x5 metre patch... The watch may be gold but that is to be confirmed, that also came from the patch. The 9ct gold ring was over a foot deep in waist high water.
Twas a nice night to be out with the moon beam lighting the way. ?
I may get out tonight for one more 2020 detect but that depends on the weather which is supposed to be wet and stormy for the next 3 or 4 days.

Officially my last detect of 2020 which saw hundreds of people lined along the beach waiting for the New Year countdown.
I had my waterproof earphones so it didn't bother me at all, I just detected away finding small patches of coins that have recently surfaced.
Undoubtedly the best Commonwealth Penny condition wise I've pulled out of this beach and I've had quite a few good ones but this is immaculate.
The gemstone pendent is an interesting one, very cold to the touch and surprising colour once it has a backing light shining through it, no idea what it is but a cool find indeed.

The final picture is a gold thrill that had me excited when I saw the gemstones, but a soak in vinegar reveals junk base metal.. The stones are pretty so I'll save them.
Until next time happy detecting
Cheers Gda bring on 2021 gold...
:Y: :D
 
Great little hunt gda, that penny musta had some anaerobic uderwater conditions to come out like that. Check those 20c for a wavy 2 base as well... never know what you'll find and a couple of them I can't quite see from here :Y:

The pennies here are all like that, protected in the muck. :Y:

There in pristine condition if pulled them out of the salt , the ones I pull out are cactus . Good quality salt water down their Art :playful:

Fresh water Creek runs into this section of beach... I'll be heading out tonight even though it's looking like a storm is rolling in... :Y:
Best time to hunt mate , is when a storm rolls in during the arvo evening .
 
Decided to take a stroll and dig shallow, solid targets. Well I didn't really expect much but the nox had other ideas. Seeing the glint of gold in the pile of sand and gravels puts a smile on my dial... 2021 is well and truly showing its golden 18k colour.
The only thing that brought me home earlier than I would have liked was my 8 year old son. I knew better but never, ever again will he be coming on a night time detect.
