Default 20+ Miles of beach and 2 Producers

This is for real so if anyone wants to know the two locations of good finds
please let me know. It seems obvious to me that when you find a Spanish,
Dutch and French coin in an area of 300 yards of sand dunes on the beach
and these coins are all from the 1700's there must be an old sunken ship just off the beach. I have also found two or three seated liberty dimes from the 1850 era in the same area. It would probably be a waste of time to detect the beach area until just after another strong Northeast storm - the dunes - maybe if your lucky. But someone who does underwater metal detecting from a boat will probably find where the coins came from. The location is from Old Salty's fishing pier south to the high rise Luxury condos on North Topsail Beach The coins
from the other location are from the early to mid 1900's. I believe a German
U boat must have sunk a freighter in this area. The coins are a mixture of
Irish, English and Mexican coins. As you leave Surf City traveling south on
RT 50 just as you are entering Topsail Beach you will see an old blockhouse
where the first rockets were observed. Find a place to park and go down the public access to the beach. Once again an underwater detector from
a boat should eventually locate the source of the coins. Unlike the other
location, all of these coins were found 5 - 20 feet from the dunes toward
the water. I believe 3 were large Mexican Pesos and the rest were large
English and smaller Irish coins. If interested and if I can be of further help
please let me know - I would love to hear that someone actually found
the source of both finds.
