Another Nice Hunt

[The Seeker]

Got out for another night hunt today, started at 3am and stopped about 7:30. I did a zig zag from the wet to the waters edge of the low tide and I couldn’t find a line to work no matter how much I tried. I decided to pick a line that has worked for me in the past and has kept me from getting skunked on a few occasions. This hunt was no different, my first crisp sounding target was a nice little 18k ring that weights 4.7 grams. This is my first 18k ring ever, for some reason I always find 10k gold when I do find gold. About 30 minutes later I found a dead/drowned watch. Towards the end of the hunt I found the iPhone, which I figured that’s what it was before digging it. It’s been months since I have found a phone and this one doesn’t turn on just like all the others.  I was swinging the AQ for this hunt. It’s weird how sometimes it works like it should and others it likes to false, during the same hunt. Thanks for reading and happy hunting.

It’s a metal replica of the $1 gold coin.

Congrats on the 18K. I have yet to find a working phone.

That's a worthy AQ hunt!! NIce 18k! 

My AQ is the same, I found when the water is rough I really have to work at getting it stable. Like today...Crazy day, I though I had switched the Delay but I had switched it to Mute and for 3 hours...After I seen and went to All metal and readjusted a few times it was silent. That's what I get for adjusting the settings by feel.. 😞

Congrats on the 18K. It’s always a good hunt when that quality of gold shows up!

Sweet dig on the 18K!  My iPhone today just needed to be charged.  It had a picture under the cover and a picture on the startup screen after charging but it is locked so finding the owner will be a challenge.

Thanks OBN. That’s a bummer on the adjustment on your AQ, but being in the water and with thick gloves is challenging. With all my other detectors I just set it and forget it, but with the AQ I have been bouncing between all metal and tones. Keep the nice AQ gold coming OBN, HH.

From all the IPhones I have found only one was working. To make things simpler the owner call me since she was looking for it and we met up for a return. HH

I'd have had a heart attack if I had found that!  And then just the opposite when I finally realized it's not gold. 😪

Good looking jewelry, and one worth some serious coin.
