Maybe a winner's medal ?

Scales mark spots too 👍 WTG !

Woo hoo , ring a ding ding ! Sneakin' up on 'em seems to work very well👍

Honkah ring 350 ! Lots of folks uptah camp just cut chunks off a log for exactly the right length wood jackstands. Ya just need a 1/2" dia. stick ta slice up and GTG. 👍

Welcome aboard blondeprospector ! There be no shame in bein' a dirt pirate tryin' ta learn about treasarrrr . No apologies needed .(unless ya leave a place lookin' like a groundhog invasion......) Tell us more about what ya salvaged . There are a bunch here that have a huge bag of clues that are shared with other dirt/sand pirates. P.S. If it's gold , ya might be asked if ya have a map. (Say no. 😜)

Arrrr , it be true .Food don't be the only good thing that comes from the sea !

Well now Scully, didn't all that grumblin' and fixin' pay off sweet ? OOOIE ! 🤩 WTG

LOL Ring up VL ? I was carrying the 800 and it was on cuz we were looking for other goodies . However the "depositor" seems to have left a fresh drop and they were laying on the ground so it was just a sight find . Even swinging the Micronta , I would have still found them . ( BTW , I gave my Micronta away to one of the carnies a couple of weeks ago , who owned it's twin, for spare parts.) The cushions are mounted on a hard plastic ring which as it turned out , they just snapped back into place ! (I think they would pop out as easily if pried up with anything thin enough (guitar pick )to fit in between the ring and HP earpiece outer shell.) I'll feel more comfortable wearing them detecting a beach in the water now but will assume they would likely die if dropped out in the surf for two months ! arrrrrrgh ( They were turned off when lost ) . The 2 button/jean rivets are starting to look more rivets to me today after taking the toothbrush to them. I'll be going back there till the place has no targets left ! Well , a lot less good ones anyway.

OK back to my friend's 1700s place one more time. Went for a walk and found the headphones ! Laying out in the woods with the speakers pointed UP.🙄 The cushions were neatly laying beside them. (Looks like the adhesive holding them on was water soluble?) SO , probably over a foot of rain fell since they were lost....... Then I pushed the on button and baloodadeep ! THEY TURNED ON !!!!!🤯 OH AYUH yup yup . Drying out now , will try pairing with the 800 asa they're bone dry. Also found a couple (1/4" + 3/8") possible buttons or maybe jean rivets ? Currently drying before cleaning. And a clad quarter plus a bunch of nails and screws from his driveway.. almost forgot , an old axe head too.

Not too shabby dream hunt right thayah ! The beach knew you were comin' and made you a cake ! "Happy Birthday enjoy the presents !" 🥸 I think you should put a thank you card in a bottle and bury it there .....😏

Nice stuff Toad . Sux the ring was broken but broken gold is still gold ! WTG arrr ! 👍 Weirdo dog tag .🤔

Odd , unique and very cool ! 🤔 Great find cuz whatever it is , it's attached to gold ! 🥸🏴‍☠️

Welcome aboard Jeff ! 350 is right , there are a lot of experienced D2 users here . And he's one of them ! They'll get you up to speed on that D2 asap ! Just ask yer questions as you go.

Welcome to the crew Whoflungdung? You chose wisely when you joined this forum to learn detecting ! All 3 are decent machines. If you ever want to look for anything besides gold , the Nox has a bigger bag of tricks.🥸 So , I might regret it but I'll be the 1st to ask. Is there a story to go with your forum name ??🤔

I love your good luck token treasarrr find ! 🥸 That good luck karma might bring you a nice ring soon too 👍

Made it back to the spot Saturday. Big coils this time on the 800 with the owner also swinging a 540 .Only had time to go over the same area where the septic system would be going on. Rusty nails and (old)canslaw , that was it. Skunkareeno ! So last time was a coin spill ? OK ! Going back again to spread searches out more (the stage road curved away from the shore just before the spill spot that is overlooking the water) so following that more plus check around the old foundation which the road also goes right by as much as possible. I'm sure I'll be back there many many times . Headphones still awol. Have been using my old road cans with the long coily cord . (Koss Pro4AA) Heavy , but fit like a pair of old boots 👍 Maybe wander for a bit scanning for the ML80s.....stay tuned folks And yes VL , I did re-dig the spill holes . But not to look for the HPs 😏, big coil deep searching the spill spot.

Good lookin' finds display ! Debbie scraped out a nice beach patch for ya .🏴‍☠️🥸

I always use headphones on the beach. However hearing about those bikini questions gives cause for possible reconsideration.🤔

That ring will still get many second glances ! 🤯 Son of the beach status reconfirmed.🏴‍☠️

That plan worked out really well ! 👍 Smooth water too !

Area scanning sticks . 🤔 I am not sure what that might be . Translation could be the reason ? Can you describe them and what they do ? Possibly add a photo or web link ?

Nice group of targets found so far.👍 Keep hitting that spot till it cries "uncle" !

Relics are like a box of chocolates , ya never know what you're gonna get !🥸 But. Getting a keeper real is way better than chocolates any day !🏴‍☠️ WTG SOHN !
