Finally on the score board 2014 in two categories

[Ytcoinshooter]

Yesterday was springlike teaser day so I wasn't going to miss taking my Sovy GT / WOT combo to the beach. There are more targets than the picture of the coins and trash show because some are under others and my wrapper I put in the trash pouch. First gold of 2014 is a 8.9 gram (5.7 dwt) wedding band from someone who has catchers mitts for hands. That just made my winter blahs fade away when the glint of gold turned out to be for real when I spread the wet salt sand from my scoop. At the tides lowest point I edged along a jetty amongst a rocky bottom to score the "Merc". I'm going back there next time. I have a good feeling based on how difficult it was with all the iron in certain areas.

I hope everyone has as good a start in 2014.

Nothing like gold. I love finding old coppers, but when they come out of the ground they are usually pretty ugly and worthless. Gold is never ugly or worthless when it comes out of the ground. Nice find.

Now, that man must have been a big dude. Nice pile of junk. Just shows that you have to dig everything to find the good stuff. Nice work... KEN, IND..
