Popular Post Compass Posted June 26 Popular Post Share Posted June 26 ...but at least I found some silver. I actually found a couple of toasted zinc pennies too but the only real coin was a nickel. Working in the wet sand I found a silver ring, bracelet and neck chain with cross, all fresh drops judging by the lack of any tarnishing. The chain and cross were particularly gratifying as they came near the end of the hunt after the sun came up and I was able to see the big (25 gram) chain gleaming on the wet sand after a quick scoop and "toss". I believe that this particular chain is called a Byzantine chain and has a unique and intricate weave design. Finding a chain like this in gold will be added to my bucket list! 😮 25 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28787-one-coin-in-3-hours-at-the-beach/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

F350Platinum Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Nice stuff Compass! Guess the season is on now for fresh drops. It's been really hot here, but it broke last night. 👍 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28787-one-coin-in-3-hours-at-the-beach/#findComment-299784 Share on other sites More sharing options...

July through September have been good to me in the past so I'm ready to go! 🙂 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28787-one-coin-in-3-hours-at-the-beach/#findComment-299790 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice chains are always exciting see in the scoop or on the wet sand. It's been a while since I found a gold one so, hopefully, I can enjoy that experience again soon. 😮 2 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28787-one-coin-in-3-hours-at-the-beach/#findComment-299792 Share on other sites More sharing options...
okara gold Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Great looking chain! The title of your post had a fond memory for me. I went to the beach a few years ago and the first target I dug was a gold ring. I thought… Oh boy here we go. 3 hours later I had a gold ring and 1 penny. Ya never know! 🤔 3 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/28787-one-coin-in-3-hours-at-the-beach/#findComment-299799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
