…that’s what makes this hobby so much fun!! 8)
Hit the beach for the afternoon low tide with the PI looking for gold or silver, but they eluded me this time. :( I did get these two coins I found interesting. We get lots of tourists in Santa Cruz, so I guess a couple of them dropped these. :grin: They were fairly deep and at the extreme low tide line. The Russian 5 Koiieek was encrusted from being in the salt water. I thought it was a bottlecap because it stuck to the magnet I have in my scoop. ;) The Britsh Penny came out pretty clean. Other than these finds I got a few bucks in clad.

Wow, great finds Ron! You're right... it is the mystery as well as the history, that I really love about this hobby thumbsup01
 
Cool finds, Ron. I love hitting the low tide too. You just never know what will pop into the scoop. It is a lot of fun. :)
 
8) Very cool Ron! You're so lucky to be living in warmer climate. All I found yesterday was a 1988 penny... only hunted about 15 min it was so cold!
 
I hate the cold...I am usually detecting this time of the year, but noooo. Mother nature has decided we needed a foot of snow this month.... :bangahead01: :bangahead01:.... lol

Someone's not happy lol It seems like a lot of places got dumped on more than usual. I hate to say it, but researching new sites will pay off big time when the snow does melt. That didn't help you Miller6670, did it? lol....OK here's to old man winter :mad: :ticked: :bangahead01: :crazy: :tongue: :beatdown: :poke: :bop: :bop: I feel better now lol

Ron,
You have given me the fever so bad I am logging off and going to look through the furniture loose change...................
(we are visiting my mother-in-law in a retirement center so the odds are really against me. These folks would stop traffic at LAX to pick up a penny, but a hunt is a hunt)

Nice finds... I miss the west.... this cold and snow in the northeast is not for me. My wife loves it, so I tolerate it... but yearn for my years in AZ and TX. (Not CA though, lived there, did not like it, except for northern CA in gold country). RickO
