The water was calm with a very gentle swell occasionally desturbing the stillness.
Even though the moon phase kept the water from dropping as much as I would like, I decided to see what I might find with my Dual Field in the areas where the sand hasn't buried everything yet.
Four and a half hours of bobbing around as the swells lifted me in my dry suit and struggling to dig the few signals I did find resulted in a typical collection of sinkers, pop tops, odd bits of metal and bottle tops plus a few coins.

A couple of the coins may be silver, but I haven't chipped off the corrosion yet to find out.
In one place the sand wasn't too deep and I found the 14K wedding band (either a small man's or a woman's) only 10 feet or so from the water's edge and just before I gave up (about a 1/4 mile farther along the beach) due to rising water and being tired from hours of hard digging while struggling to stay afoot, I dug up the 1935 10K class ring maybe thirty feet out!!

I worked my way back to where I parked and called it a day tired, but thankful to be able to get out there and find something to brag about.
