    A Four Ring Day

    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.

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

    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

    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.
