Hit the beach this morning around 5 am. Weather was great around 70 this morning and not much of a wind blowing. Ran into several surf pirates this morning.There were not many targets for a long time. Then I got into a cut way down the beach and started getting sinkers all around me. Then out pops this spike from an old ship. So I am thinking to my self that with all this there has to be some gold here someplace. Sure enough in a few minutes I get this low tone and out pops this little 14k ring. 1.9 grams. Here is a quick spin

As always great pics and finds, i sell the lead weights that aren't my size to the local fishermen and make a few additional € on the side
 
Nice post and finds David. I like that old spike, part of history. I have to ask this question, when do you sleep????? I watch your posts and you are out at night and sunrise. I think I would be right there with you if I lived in that area though, Good luck, Jim
 
Yes it sure was nice Friday AM , and it was a pleasure to meet you . As a newcomer to this detecting thing it seems that there are alot of good people involved. My street sweeper didn't find much just some old beach towels and alot of Mcdonalds trash....
 
I Love It All!!!!

GREAT SUNRISE!!:tumble: GOLD:cool: AND A SHIP SPIKE!!! THOSE ARE A REALLY NICE PIECE OF HISTORY!!!THEY LOOK NICE IN THE DISPLAY CASE!!
 
Hey Yukon Trl it was nice to chat with you and I hope you can find some real nice loot this summer.If you see me on the beach come on down and chat a spell love to talk with you
 
For us KY folks living far away from the beach, your pics and treasures make our mouth water. You always have great shots, makes me dream. Thanks for sharing your photographing talents and your MD talents with us.
