The day before I visited a few beaches ready to hit the water and found them all sanded in and replenished on the dry making it hard to find anything no trash nothing but black sand so hunted the back of one beach in a weed and grass covered area grinding out a very small 10K diamond ring, 2 silver rings and 27 clad coins in 4 hours so real good.
Went out the next day to my trusty clad beach not good for gold but always good for coins. Got down to the beach and found it replenished to the max up to 4 feet deep of new light colored sand all along the prime hunting spot almost kept going, man had had enough of sanded in replenished beaches before you could see the wet sand from the car park but not anymore.
Anyway decided to check it out finding a heap of pull tabs then checked out a spot that had never been good for coins in the past and found that the guys replenishing the beach had pushed over a lot of old gray dirty sand off the prime area and it was loaded with coins mixed with a lot of trash but real good going not much iron. Kept increasing the sensitivity till it was on max or so I thought I have the control pod of the Excal hip mounted behind my back and after I'd finished thought I'd check out the settings as I was really surprised how well the Excal was doing depth wise while keeping a stable thresh hold found out I'd been running in auto for the past hour forgot about auto being there after the highest setting seemed to work really well at the back of the beach in that old sand. That small 1941 1 sen aluminum coin was the find of the day even the new aluminum coins don't last long at the beach but this is the first one I've found and is in surprisingly good condition. The square hole is a 1760s 1 mon and the other two are silver 100 yen coins from the 1960s.
Thanks for viewing.
Put in a cleaned silver coin from an other hunt.
That small coin with a silver dime
