    New beach, we call this one the 100 year old Virgin

    Mark and I did some research on Sunday and came up with a beach we thought might be good! Man were we right. We hunted from 7:30 to 3 on Monday, and together we dug 51 silver coins, 4 gold rings, over 80 wheat's, 6 buffalo's, 2 V nickles, 1 Indian and a dozen silver items,
    What a day!
    My take for Monday.
    21 silver coins. 1 franklyn half, 7 washington qtrs, 1 st lib qtr, 3 rosies, 9 mercs,1 barber dime, 4 buffs and about 35 wheats.
    14K 1/2 ct Diamond with 15 chips custom made ring
    silver boy scout ring, 2 other silver rings and a silver medalion


    Today we went back and Killed it again.
    We met at 6 am and hunted until 11, so 5 hours detecting. Wheats and silver started right away with lots of silver jewelry.
    I ended the hunt with 1 gold ring 10k initial ring 0.6g, 23 silver coins- 8 wash qtrs, 7 rosies, 5 mercs and 3 war nickles plus 3 buffs and a V nickle. I also got 4 silver rings a 14K gold filled ring.

    great to see that there are always new places to hunt. I've found a new site but I need to get the owners permission. I understand they are very nice and wouldn't mind if you asked- they let deer hunters on why not a DH'er ?

    I couldn't help but notice in your videos you have a floating sifter box you made to help look thru the contents of your scoop I was thinking about making one for myself could you give me the specs of yours especially what size metal mesh screen you use in the bottom it looks roughly 1/4 inch.
