Love the ring Charles!! Were they deep?

None were deep, 6 inches max. That's the great thing about the beach its like a conveyor belt turning the sand over and bringing stuff to the surface. Waves also pick up coins and rings from deep holes in the water and throw them up onto the beach during storms. You can hunt a beach completely clean of targets and come back the next day or next week and its loaded again. Now that said, targets are sometimes deep on the beach, and I mean deep. I have dug silver halfs and 8 reales at over 2 feet deep. The last small 10k gold childs ring I found was about 18 inches down and just a wisper/warble signal.
 
Charles, which coil are you using on the beach? WOT or SEF maybe?

I was using an Explorer SE Pro coil, awesome coil. I have a WOT on order as we are getting into deep old gold and silver season. I have to craft a special 2 handed shaft for it though, swinging that mother for 4 hours on a wet salt water beach requires 2 hands.
 
Excellenet charles...great work.
