[size=medium]Camera Phone Pics Next 2 Pics - With a Spot Light - Forgot the digital camera......
We were at the upper sand bar - full moon, Deb(Mrs chile)was on Skully
We had set the slide anchors out (ship secure) - and I was in the mine
When Deb decided to step into the drink - and stepped on to wet sand instead of water -
"The water level dropped she yelled"....And by the time it had finished going out,
the waters edge was about 10 yards behind Skully..
Being the trooper she is - Next thing I knew she had a fire going -
And she yelled "I brought lots of blankets and pillows - well sleep on the ship till the water level comes up..."
Ya, it came back up - 10:00am the next morning
Made for one intersting dig - 4 rings, 46 quarter, etc.
This mine looks to be virgin -
The water levels is always lowered in Nov., I'll BE BACK.[/size]

I am glad to hear that nothing happened to your boat. Nice haul on all that Clad Coinage! Boy, that sure is a lot of Change. Nice Rings again and I would have to agree with you that it is a virgin site you found once again. Glad you found 3 Silver Roosevelt Dimes and some Wheat Pennies also and I wish you continued success, Good Luck and HH.

That is a hole drilled for scamming stand-up video games such as Pac Man and Defender from the 80's. A friend of mine did that over 20 years ago by tying the quarter to a string and put the quarter in the machine slot and when it hit the sensor, he would jiggle it to get as many credits as possible. This didn't always work and if one got caught it was considered stealing. If one looks for quarters in the coin return of video games in most arcades, it's considered shoplifting.
