Digging bullets pays off WOOT!

Went back to my little dip in the sand today and kept working the very small area that has been giving a few heavier targets. As I approached it today (It's a long walk to the spot) I noticed a couple walking through it and they appeared to be in a hole! This was a great sign and as I got closer I could see it had cut out a bit more since yesterday.

Imagine my JOY when the 5th or so target I pulled was my very first standing liberty quarter. I THINK it is 1923. What do you guys think?

As I kept searching the area I was finding little 22 bullets everywhere. They sound like aluminum on the DFX I think because they are shot already and so very small. Very annoying but I was determined that if there were fishing weights and bullets there then there had to be gold close by and I was not disappointed!

What a beautiful ring! A GREAT day indeed! It was over 80 degrees today but tomorrow it will drop to 50 with strong north winds. I'm hoping that cuts out my little ditch a bit more! Please Lord don't let the heavy seas expected tonight fill it in!

There is also a little sterling silver Jesus in there :) and a cheap heart charm.

Wow! Not just any silver and gold but a SLQ and a beautiful and colorful gold ring. The two make for an awesome tandem! HH!

You have been getting some nice targets.
Hope the beachs keep giving up the gold for you. Wife has us spending 4 days up there later this month.
