Hi all,
Got out for a while to the beach, but this time tried going to the 17 inch coil. I have to say it was a big improvement! I started by getting many deeper coins that had obviously been missed and we're in the sand a very long time. About 30 minutes in I got a tiny squeaker 12-36 of a signal and found a junker ring with a big CZ on it. Obviously been in the sand a long time also since all the plating is gone.

Not much later I got another barely audible squeaker and pulled what I thought was another junker ring. Very nice looking though so once I got home I cleaned it better and looked with the magnifier only to find .925 stamped in it!

And here's the rest of the finds. Not shown is the $3 plus of clad.
