Hello everyone. I use to post on here way back in 2013. Took a little break as I jumped in to water hunting heavy. While still heavy into water hunting (hard not to living in Florida), In the past 3 years I have circled back to my real passion of coin and relic hunting including trips to hunt...

While looking for a persons lost ring in some hedges with my detector, i found this broach down about 3 inches. It was in an area of st. Pete, fl where an old hotel and retail district use to be and is now a parking lot. No markings and it does not appear to be silver and not magnetic. Any idea...

Happy New Year All. I'm going to get more serious about relic and coin hunting in 2013. Right now I have an XLT that I have used since 2007 on some coin hunts and the beaches and as kind of my all around detector and it does ok I guess no real complaints. I just got a new ATpro for christmas and...

I got this coin as a bonus along with some US silver coins i bought? The dealer had no idea what it was exactly or at least thats what he said. I certainly have no clue. If you can help identify i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Got a call from our club pres. about a couple desperate to find their lost keys. They were in town on business and lost the keys in the sand last night and had been stressed about the return home since. So I headed to CWB and met them there. Turned out to be a bit of a guessing game but after an...

Great low tide for this mornings quick hunt. Found ring 42 of the year. Turns out to be my first Titanium ring. I know not much value there, but as my wife would say a rings a ring.

Had my first 4 ring day yesterday and boy did I need it. I was in a serious drought and was really getting discouraged. After 2 years of water hunting I am finally getting use to the fact that rings are streaky and hopefully I'm on another streak now. Any who, found the 3 rings in the am all...

Got a call from our ring finder group last Saturday night about a lost platinum ring. Went to meet the gang on Sunday morning. When I got there I found out we actually got a second call Saturday night about a second Platinum ring just a few blocks down the street from the first one. That's just...

I was trolling the lost and found section of Craigslist yesterday and came across a lady's post of a lost mens wedding band near my area. Her husband had lost it in the surf on Saturday and it belonged to her late father that passed away unexpectidly a few years ago. It is her last remaining...

Usually spend my time hunting the beaches of Florida for gold but got bored with the results lately so headed back to the 1917 hotel I had permission to hunt today. This hotle has been hunted too death by me and others, but I wanted to try a little experiment. I brought my Sand Shark (PI) with...

You may recall I took all my finds so far, melted them and took them to Vegas with my father in law. Well we had a blast but the tables were brutal as usual. Father in law gave it his all until he was treated for exhaution. Talk about your sailor on leave! I did manage to still come back with...

UPDATE: I have had a few jewelers look at the free mason ring and all have concluded that it is likely from the early 60's. Went for a couple hunts this weekend. The tide was at about a - 3 foot drop uncovering about 75 feet of new real estate to detect and Sandy did not disappoint. Found the...
