Default Rings and coins and funny money

To make the recovery from the flu I made a trip to the west coast of FL (Tampa Area) to get the Excalibur wet in the Gulf.. It was the first time I have ever been to the Gulf and WOW.. Sure is diffferant for the East Coast of FL .... Drove over to the west coast on Friday night....I hunted most of the morning then when for a nap and eats then back out for the evening hunt....the water was very clear. I meet a couple of mder;s form the area and they were happy to give me some insite on the beach I was hunting......
I found one Silver toe ring,,,, one silver ring with a knot design, on bracelett,,,and some funny money ,,, one Mexican $2,,,one Chinese coin,,,and one Canadian penny Well enough of the talking here are some pictures of the finds that I got on Saturday...
