I have been testing out new metal detectors the last couple of months but I took my trusty White's MX Sport back to my old beach hot spot.
66463

three of the rings were plated and two of them look to be very old

66465
66464
66466

When this one was in the scoop I could tell it was the real deal. It has that high K look to it but only has a mark
66467
66468

I also pick up a couple wheats in the 40's and a Merc dime
66470
66471

I have found plenty of amusment tokens but never one the size of a dime like this one...it's not aluminum

66472
66473

The bracelet did have a name on it

66469


Thanks for looking and Happy Hunting !

Interesting finds! What detectors were you testing? I guess they failed :lol:

I'm the only person in the world that didn't like the Nox 800...sold it. It's not that I didn't understand the machine but the tones drive me nuts! I've always been a White's guy and that's what I do well with. The V3i is a killer machine and was way ahead of its time...not going in the water with that. The MX Sport is awesome !!

Most rings pre 1907 weren’t required to be karrot stamped so that one definitely dates pre 1907. Surprised not to see any earlier Cracker Jack toys since those are very common to find in old swimming sites.

The only Cracker Jack toy I’ve found in this location was the train. I found it on a day I didn’t find much else.
