Ring a ding ding Dan... top score of the year all ready !
Well done mate :D
:power: :cool: :Y:
 
Yer anything past bribie mate.
That place gets smashed by detectors.
I will be impressed if you even find a bottle top :lol: :Y:
 
Out and about again tonight looking to work the rest of the cutaway I came across just south of Coolum on Wednesday . Decided on just the one detector being the ctx3030 with a small 10 x 5 eliptical coiltec coil .

My plan was to grid above the cut and then hit the hard pack sand below .

The soft sand above the north end of the cut produced little as it had been worked over fairly well but the hard pack sand below continued to give up targets . My 3rd and 4th targets on the hard pack were rings , one costume and the other being a nicely engraved 925. There was plenty of coinage about also , however there were no pre-decimals to be found which was my primary aim for the evening .

After a few more coins the cut yielded its 3rd gold ring for the trip , a lovely little 9ct with stones , and with that I decided to pull stumps and headed back .

Here are the picks

Managed to get out for a swing after work today ,focusing on the swash zone to about knee deep with the detectors used being the excal 2 and the Knox today .

No too much about , so gridding the zone and digging every target was the order of the day .

Pulled out 3 rings , but all costume . Found part of a kitchen sink , and plenty of empty vape cylinders - a sign of the times .

A cool 925 pandora charm was reward for effort today , with a house containing a Christmas tree and other things.

A momento with rhinestones from someones trip to Vegas capped of the evening .

Here are the picks. Happy hunting.

A couple coins stuck together, interested to see what they turn out to be after a nice soak in a cab .
 
Not many targets about :lol: Really mate. :eek:
Dam id love to be there when there was :) :Y:
They don't look like coins stuck together in that pic mate.
Another Awesome hunt Dan :clap: :Y: :beer:
 
Thanks Smokey , whats your take on what they might be , they rang up high on the TID end about 26/7 with the Knox and fairly encrusted . Look like 2 coins from the side view. Anyways a couple of days in the bath should review if its trash or treasure mate.
