Popular Post Compass Posted July 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 5, 2022 I hit the wet sand for 4 1/2 hours with the Excal today hoping to find some goodies during low tide. Targets were few and far between but I did manage a couple dozen coins and about half that number pieces of jewelry although most of it was the cheap stuff. Exceptions were 2 silver religious medals and a silver ring but the find of the day was an eyeball find. As I was nearing the end of the hunt I spied a pair of sunglasses in the surf under a few inches of water. They had the "Ray Ban" logo on the lens but I know that there are fakes out there. When I got home I took a closer look at the sunglasses and I could see that they were of good quality. Not only that but I couldn't find any scratches or blemishes whatsoever. No doubt the most pristine pair of sunglasses I have ever found. I will be putting these babies to good use! 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoolofhardNox Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Nice hunt. A lot of keepers and hopefully not a lot of junk! Them glasses cost a pretty penny! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! It would have been nice to break my gold slump but, yes, those Ray Bans retail for over $200 so it was like finding a good sized gold band. Surprisingly, I only found a minimal amount of trash today! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so glad that these were not buried - I'm sure that I would have damaged them with my scoop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 That is a good hunt after so long with nothing. I'm in a gold slump too and have been watching for the right moments but when I get out there just aren't the patches I would like to see. Most all of the beach hunters I know are a bit starved for the good stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our beaches seem ready for some erosion action soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
