After yesterdays great hunt, we couldn't wait for low tide today, so we arrived early and worked the top of the beach. Before we knew it the tide was down far enough to score a few nice coins. Dad stared it off with another V nickel, 1899.... Then I got a good hit ( Silver ) my first of the day, and it was a Barber dime 1892, Then an Indian Head penny only a foot away, Wow doing good again today, Then I see that smurk that Dad has when he finds a goody...LOLOL Yup a silver Barber dime for him this time, no date, As we worked farther apart, we had to change over to hand signals.... A few sinkers and then another Barber Dime 1882..... Dad was watching from a far and just shaking his head with a big smile... I walked down to the waters edge because we had worked the spot pretty good and the beach looked like land mines had gone off with all the covered up holes...... I swung the detector and BUZZZZZZZZZ BUZZZZZZZZZ a very low tone , you know that sound, my brain was saying..... dig dig dig...... I couldn't get it fast enough, a mans 14 k wedding band... although it s cracked, it's prety heavy 8.3 grams ( SCORE ) I just knew there was a ring waiting for me there today..... on the way out, a silver washington quarter, and another Indian Headpenny.... I love this hobby ! HH Thanks for looking...
 
Very nice to be out there with your dad. That is more important than anything you find. You never mention the detectors you two are swinging.
