Hi all! I just came back from the beach and though I havent found gold or anything else of value really, I am kind of excited to report that I found my first Wheatie. Im enclosing some pictures of it. I dont know if something like this is worth anything or not, but, I have to say, I sat there with it in my hand for some time thinking about how long it must have waited in the sand for me and how awesome it makes me feel to be the one who found it. I dug this coin about 15 inches deep in soft sand and it looks great. Also picture of my junkola...I tried to get out in to the water today, but the wind was up and I was getting handled, so I spent a lot of time in the "beach blanket belt".
