At The Beach 3 - Watching The Waves


Recommended Posts

Day 3, we had a good low tide here. Got out early. Walked the beach in the other direction, made my search field a little smaller because of the concentration of hotels and condos, many more "depositors" in the Bank of the Beach. πŸ˜€ Very few out this morning, most people leave on Saturday and Sunday. Should be even fewer tomorrow. It does fill up by 10 tho regardless.20210717_063733.thumb.jpg.e149d47faec43f9331c3a5fd9616db82.jpg

Pretty trashy day, picked up a bunch of bottle caps, the new nemesis being the aluminum beer cap. These buggers are a solid 14/15. I have to dig them all. 😡 Bottle caps aren't a worry, I pick them up when I see them or they're within one scoop.20210717_110841.thumb.jpg.119db4b942561dda6f3b85f815e008cb.jpg

Nice carabiner tho. πŸ˜€

Sold a few Equinoxes today, lots of people asking what they should buy.

Here are the finds, probably the best yet but not enough Vitamin K for me, as in 14k. 🀬20210717_111757.thumb.jpg.a046db80f66577c0ad434703064df698.jpg

Dollar in in quarters, got one of every kind again. I was getting worried and then got the nickel. The small "C" is probably silver, from Costa Del Mar sunglasses. It was a 26. I call them "Costa Del Lots". Apple watch series 3, still working. Gonna have to buy a charger, I don't do Apple. One is on the way. If I can find the owner they can have it back.

Favorite find today is a 925 sterling wave ring that matches a gold one I dug in Savannah. My wife loves it. Hope to collect other colors as well.20210717_111915.thumb.jpg.b573772d536a276faed0c95d47ead8d0.jpg

Got it confirmed, they did replenish this beach year before last. At least 1 foot of sand was deposited all the way to the point. 😡 No wonder the targets are so deep.

Most non detecting minutes are spent looking out at the waves uptah camp .

Thanks.Β  πŸ™‚ Already got a Samsung Frontier watch, waterproof and big. Works great with my stuff! When I get it cracked I'll find out who owns it. Not an Apple fan at all.

The coins go in the coin jar, all jewelry goes to my better half. πŸ˜€

Wow. Sounds a wonderful time of digging and some good finds. I'm a llittle jealous.πŸ˜‰

Thanks! It is a great place, but not enough gold for me. It's not high end. I haven't found anything to date (ever) with a "K" on it. I'll probably film myself dancing a jig when I do. If it's here I should be finding it. I pretty much don't ignore any target because there are so few.

At the first sign of any seaweed…….I’m off somewhere else. Those light targets and general beach grade tell the story as well…….if I had to search that beach then it would be fresh drops past the high tide line and into the dry sand…..😬

There is a little seaweed. Can you tell me what difference that makes? There is a lot more stuff above the high tide line.

Never mind I looked it up. πŸ˜€ I did notice that some seaweed was "hot", but there's not a lot of it, and not all of it was. There are many gaps where there is nothing. Most of it is right at high tide line and there is about 100'+ of beach below when the tide is out. Today there is a .10 negative tide when I'll be out there, too bad I won't be here Wednesday for the .30. 😡

Apple watch should be easy to find the owner, just bring it to an Apple store. Surprised it was running, think they have a 3 hour battery run time πŸ™‚

Beach looks pretty clean.
