On vacation down south this week, finally able to get to the beach this morning for some dry sand scavenging with the Compadre. Just went from lifeguard tower to tower....Despite chanting for gold, didn’t turn any up.

Got a 1962 silver Roosevelt. $8.59 in change...

My 10 year old found a $10 bill in the sand later on!

I will try and get back out tomorrow to see what I can turn up!

My first silver coin for the year comes from the beach! Maybe next year I’ll have a wet salt capable machine.

Happy hunting out there!

It's a sad day when your 10 year old does better than you without a detector! :lol: But still that was a very good clad haul with a nice Rosie!
 
Congrats on a great beach hunt ! Congrats to your son too !

Thanks man. It was my daughter :lol: my son (8) wishes it was him - he wants to go back and look around :laughing:

Way to go GS!

Thanks Metal! Been fun using my scoop for a change.

Thanks Ron. Been mostly family stuff but this morning and tomorrow morning are mine!

:lol: well, depending on the grade of this silver dime, we may have come close to being even... right? :lol:

Got a few Felix cents even!!! Maybe tomorrow I’ll nab some teeph :lol:

Not bad at all, thanks!

Congrats on your silver dime! And the $10 from your ten year old!

Thanks Jak. My daughter was stoked!

nice hunt congrats on the silver,:D i cant wait for my vacation will be in walking distance from beach :D

Thanks man, the silver dime came early in a coin spill with clad, so I got lucky there! Walking distance sounds like a dream! I’m going to get on my bike and ride down to the beach here soon, finding time to hunt is the hardest part for me, heading home tomorrow!
