I've found gold on fresh water swimming beaches, but if you've ever tried to hunt salt water beaches, you know...NOT the same :-) FINALLY pulled a gold ring from salt water, just a little 10k and BEAT UP...but awesome anyways. And the funny part is I've hit this beach, known for it's cool artifacts, not tourists, hit it with everything including the monster 15" coil....but ironically, it was when I finally bit the bullet and slapped the 5 inch on the metal detector I get a gold ring.

It's SO depressing to start out...you look this pathetic tiny thing on the end of a stick and then look how large the beach is and you know how deep it goes...but the one thing the 5 inch coil is outstanding at is picking apart heavy iron trash...this beach is loaded with it and that's exactly where I got the ring.

And oh yeah, the water's fine :-) Love being able to surf in October!

  • Nice sunglasses XD

  • I hunt my Property and find lots of old Farming Relics. I found square nails, and cinches, as well as old fencing.

  • did you take it to a jeweler?

  • Awesome job bud!!!

  • Nice Jim, them small coils help pick through the junk in a site. But it definitely takes a certain mind set to actually hook it to the machine and hunt with it. NICE!!

  • Congrats Jim! HH!
