Default 10 hours of hunting and i came home with this!

well this is the second time i will write it cause it didnt post the first. ( short virsion) 0630 at va beach. clad and got a fishing hook in my toe while trying to pull up the weight then i was going home to shower and head to a park and do some land hunting but stopped by another beach and came up a 10 gold ring with a 1940 wheatie and another leader. but then i got a ton of clad from the park and i thought by the old tabs i pulled up that i would get some old coins there but no such luck. hope yall enjoy. i finished up my hunt about 1800(6pm) so i figure about 10 hours minus the shower and all.

Congratulations on the finds. Glad to see you got some gold, for all that effort. That is a lot of hours invested. Did you get the ring on the bay? VA Beach hasn't been that good to me lately. Hope the hook doesn't give you any problems.
