Step one: Get a nice big handful of old washers and nuts.
Step two: Fling them in every direction all over your detectorist's favorite search area.
Step three: Sit back, watch, and laugh.
Yeah, I hit one of my favorite local beaches yesterday. The volleyball pits usually have some clad for me when the tide isn't good for wet-sand detecting. This time I started getting hits right away! And they sounded just like 100yen (almost $1) coins! But then I started turning up washer after washer after washer (with a few nuts thrown in too). At first I thought they must have done a really bad job putting together some beach hardware at that location. But no matter where I went on that section of beach I just kept finding these stupid washers! I did notice a little security camera nearby. I bet somebody on the other end was having a good laugh.
(That's all my finds for the afternoon- junk jewelry, hardware galore, and about $6 in clad.)
