Visiting in-laws in Naples the week of March 23rd. Anyone interested in a beach hunt? In the past I've hunted Wiggens Pass, Barefoot and near the Pier but open to new sand. IM me if you're interested.

A late Happy Birthday Angie. And thank you for your work at keeping this forum alive and active.

Wives always find out, usually sooner than later. Better put those socks back in her drawer and tell her your sorry. Maybe wash the dishes for a week as penance.

If the area had been farmed in the past the act turning the soil with a moldboard plow could partial explain why target are deeper than expected. Good hunting.

What a great find. Was it common, back in the day, to convert silver coins to fancy works of art?
