Silver In The Scoop


Recommended Posts

Well surf was calm this morning and I finally got back out  Nice change from getting knocked over and beat up in the surf of the Atlantic.  Did end up to my neck getting a pair of sunglasses out 😆.  Darn things rang up like a gold ring.   Hotter than @#%$ down here so nice to be in the water up to waist maybe a lil deeper at times.  Actually did not want to get out or leave, but my list of things to do today was a little long.  Wife met me when I stepped out of the water.  She did good with coins so it helped pay the gas for the day 😊.  Only bad thing was I lost the 925 opal ring I dug in the surf to her waiting hands😆 😛.  First target of day was the cheap gold plated sun earring that I barely could make out in the dark, but saw the color.  Translation = junker, but it got the heart pumping.  Beaches long and flat but I did have an area that had a trough running along the beach and a few deeper holes.  

Wife did score a brand new Samsung Galaxy S23 1ft down in wet sand and we were able to get it back to a visitor from St Augustine.  Meet the young guy at a local park — yep he said he just bought it.   He tried handing me money, but I refused to take.  Told him take his wife to dinner instead.  

Used D2 dive program and it worked great (smooth).  Beach Sense when out of the surf and on the beach/wet.  Mainly looking for fresh drops that’s why the pulse is taking a break and I need to figure this XP out.  Hopefully I get some time to read other posts tonight. Just been busy.

Great ring find! That one doesn't look all that fresh, but if it says 925 and not sterling it is post 50s anyway. 👍

And yet another return, you two are on a roll. Congrats on the ring, 63 coins is great, kinda like the arrowhead pendant - surprised it's not silver too. 🤔

  Good on you!🏆

   Another great return, and some decent finds! Can't ask for a much better day, other than gold and diamonds, and a bit cooler temps! 🍀👍👍

F350 — yea the ring I think is older.   Looks like something off of ‘silvertribe’ website.  Which is great site to look up that type of ring finds.  Might have just found something close to it on Etsy.  Doesn’t matter as long as my wife is happy 😃 with her new ring.  The  arrow pendant was neat shame it wasn’t silver too like you said.  

Troughs aren’t too pronounced right now so we have to take what we can get.  Summer sand pattern.  Just happy to find them when I can.  Sure is nice wading though.  Probably going to try some remote beaches coming up to see conditions.

Nice haul and congrats on the silver ring, well done!

Stay cool in the surf but be careful. My last trip to Melbourne I found a 9 foot Hammerhead on the beach. That changed my mind about getting in the water that day. 🦈

Very nice. You would get spoiled real quick with the surf conditions on my side of the state. Usually no waves in the summer, just "ripples". Clear water because of no surf where you can count your toes chest deep. We have had a west wind lately which churned it up a bit so I had to hit the dry after my non-waterproof ML-105 headphones got smacked a couple times yesterday. I'm spoiled.

TampaBayBrad —  yea it’s mystery digging over here in the surf it would be nice to see my feat.   That only happens once in a while.  Sorry I have been praying for west wind blame me.  As you know it helps knock the waves down over here.  Few guys I know head over your way every couple of weeks to detect as well as Miami (Cha Ching jewelry Capitol).  Funny the other day I had my D2 wireless headphones on wading instead of my bone conductors or my water proof wired headphones (I know better) in the chest deep water.  Good thing I didn’t lose them.  I promise I will start praying for strong nor’easters in a few months to loosen up the Spanish stuff over here 😂 

CPT — sorry you ran into my EX the 9 ft hammerhead 😛 darn creature likes finding and taking  💴 💰 too!
