After our recent nor'easter I was hoping my beach would be back to it's past ways of giving up large silvers and some gold. I went out last night in single digit temps hoping to fill my pouches with precious metals but it wasn't meant to be. The storm had little affect on the overall amount of sand and I spent the night wandering around finding nothing special. Just before leaving I slipped on the frozen sand and went down HARD, landing right on my right shoulder. I hobbled the long distance back to the car, dragging my detector and shovel behind me, feeling pretty dejected.
I almost skipped today due to waking up with a sore shoulder but heck, I'm a detecting addict so back to my beach I went. It was in the low twenties but very windy. After wandering around a bit more I noticed a slight low spot on a section I usually avoid due to trashiness. I spent the last hour or so of my hunt hitting signal after signal, most targets being older items. I ended up with 5 silvers on the night as well as a bunch of wheats, which this spot always gives up easily. I got this interesting 'bible', the blue part is glass. It fell apart when I opened it and it was just full of sand. Any idea what it's for? I was hoping it was gold but I don't think it is. One of my last finds was my first badge which says 'Special Police'. What are 'Special Police'? Is it a toy? It's pretty well made. After the night I had last night, tonight was a welcome change.
Tonight's soundtrack, Puscifer...Conditions of my parole. (Sorry, I had to use the Letterman version to keep it family friendly)

Thanks.
First we had to worry about the dream police. Now we got the special police to worry about
I then pulled out the whole kit and the results are in the picture below. What's your thoughts? From left to right, 10k, 14k, 18k, 22k. I also included a blurry pic of the part I scraped on the stone. It seems to me there may be hope but it just doesn't feel right. It's too light to be gold...I think.
