Cellrdwellr still had beach silver among other things on his bucket list, so he decided to come down to the CT coast and meet me for a hunt during the morning low tide. Only thing...the low was at 3:40 am today
So while waiting on him, I decided to get out in waist deep water with the Sword for a bit and stumble around in the dark tripping over the rocks
in a bare spot I came across...which gave up several deep cookie coins and a junk ring that took forever to scoop up
The sun finally came up and after a while we moved on to another section of beach and hunted the slope above the incoming water, where Jeff found what he was looking for
I had to leave soon after but he kept hunting...don't know yet what else he got. Here's my stuff 
...51 cents clad, scrap, a cool toy trolley I eyeballed, plastic and brittle with age... 
...UMC 10ga headstamp, 3 wheats, a 1905 Indian and a 1910 Barber Dime that was another eyeball find just sitting there on the sand as I was looking for a clean spot to dump a scooped target
I called Jeff over to see it before I picked it up, and yes...I ran the coil over it as required
...that's silver #2...but what is that cookie coin?...crack it open!
...opened...

...silver #3 is a 1903 Barber Quarter 
It was a fun hunt and the weather was decent for early January, not too cold or windy...thanks for coming down Jeff! That's all for this outing so thanks for the looks, see you after the next and Happy Hunting!
