Default Some Luck today with silver!

Went to a popular beach today at low tide to see if I could get out deeper than I normally can. Seeing more Snowbirds arriving from up North.

Found the Pirate medallion out deep. I think it is pewter but I can't seem to clean it up without damaging it so it will remain black. I think the earrring is plated as there are no marks. The rings are 925 and little Victoria looks like she was part of a keychain. A couple dollars in quarters and a relaxed hunt.

I was at Rosie Roads for a while in 92 & 95, unfortounately I wasn't metal detecting then. Sounds like you got a great spot that produces. Nice finds - enjoyed seeing them.

Default Silver makes for a God Hunt, Steve!

Anything is better than a mountain of canslaw, which is what I managed on my last hunt. It looks like the sand is starting to clear for you so you can expect even better loot in your scoop soon.

Cheers Mate,

BDA
