That's pretty impressive.....was that just one hunt? The last photo shows clean/new looking gold jewellery's, Were they found in the big cut? A little bit more details for those who are just starting to beach hunt....also, Was the cut on the flats or in the slopes. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

Default That was a Big Wave of a storm, It was the size of the whole west Coast
NIce haul, gotta love the Big one"s for that The bad is as quick as the treasure showed up, it can be covered back up in the next tide. Congrads on being at the right place at the right time...Excellent Preparation, and hunt..........
