YESTERDAY AT THE BEACH

The signals were sparse, except of course for the pulltabs, however the keepers were respectable. Detected a swim beach at a Colorado resevoir. The center ring is a 14kt and fire opal, the bottom ring has three diamonds (each eye) and (mouth), set in 14kt gold lion. The crucifix is 18kt gold, the top ring is silver set with (? stones), the earring is silver, has a small diamond chip set in mother of pearl flower petals, and the dime is a 1954 (silver).
 
Hi Chuck,

Am i being rude if i ask you what settings you had there on the beach? i go only to the beach but seem to pull only junk and coins.I have had several setting from our det pals but no luck with them up to now i have to try something else i think.

Regards Maureen,,
 
Thank you Gulf Hunter.....I guess it's not too bad for hunting an inland resevoir. The beach is sand, but the botton is a hard clay. They keep drawing water out during the summer for crop irrigation on the Colorado plains. The next big drain is July 8th, then again on July 21st. Each time the water level drops about 3-4 feet, giving us another 50 yards or so of newly exposed bottom. Guess where I'll be on July 9th and July 22nd ???:detecting::minelab::clapping:
 
Hello thirdbornau.....I am using the Excalibur, hipmounted, with the 10.5" coil. I run in discriminate, (set at 1 1/2), and switch to pinpoint to recover. I beleive the key is slow sweeping the coil, and advancing forward slowly. I also work a tight grid, with my own footprints as my guide. I also dig any repeatable target. Do I get a lot of pull tabs and occasional screw caps? YES !!!! However, the keepers are definitely worth it.:detecting::minelab::thumbup:
 
Hello bdahunter.....and thank you for your comments. I think the gold ring with the fire opal came from Mexico. There are quite a few beach goinf families of Mexican or Hispanic descent who play at the resevoir, and they usually wear a lot of gold!:jump::super: The lion ring is in fact custom, I believe.
