Hey, Joe...see what I mean about these beach coins... and friends, check out this ultimate detecting insult

[Magyar]

A little windy yesterday, but I managed 4 hours of detecting in the brisk sunshine...beautiful!

The bracelet was badly mangled when I recovered it, but my dear husband, Hank straightened it out for me...the metal is not stamped , but it is very strong, I could not bend it, sooooooooo have no idea of the metallic content..

The Mexican coin is bronze

The "merc" I found in the dry sand, but must be very salty sand...too bad.

And then there is that toy penny..what a "bummer'........it sure was a surprise find!

Also found three "wheaties"....two with illegible dates and the third is a 1942 S in excellent condition

thanks for looking

Have a great day, my friends in Christ

is being out swinging for hours. Lack of rainfall does have some good things. Of the kazillion silver coins I have dug none has ever been near to that Merc. The bracelet sure looks nice, steve in so az

Yup,the "locals " tell me that this beach has been around since the late 1600's.

I found many of the coins near a washed out section of the beach where the trolley used to drop people off for the day.

The beach became eroded over the past few weeks, and there is a large part of a sidewalk visible in that section..I never knew it was there..had been buried under the sand for yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs
