Please enjoy pictures of some of my finds. Sorry the image
quality isn't the best, I am still learning how to best take
pictures with my digital camera. As I create new images I will upload the improved images.
Some Gold Finds
All at these finds were made at local beaches.
Some Silver Finds
Beach hunting with my Tesoro Cutlass picked up the usual clad, fishing weights and swivels along with
a nice Italian silver chain and the unusual Sterling pendant you see below.
Coin Finds
A storm took out enough sand to uncover these coins at one of my favorite beach spots, some of my best
coins to date.
Night detecting at a home built in 1954 produced some early date memorial
pennies (1959,1961,1961) and this nice Silver Roosevelt dime. Found with my XLT.
Detecting in a schoolyard that dated back to the 1920's uncovered this 1870 Spanish coin.
Found with my CZ-70.
Beach erosion uncovered my second oldest find to date, a 1906 Indian Head penny. I also found a 1952 silver
quarter and a nice religious medalion in the same area. Found with my CZ-70.
Wheat Pennies
These were found on Naples area beaches. Unfortunately they are in bad shape from being buried in the
sand for so long... Top penny is 1944, 1952 and 1955. Found with my Surfmaster P.I. and XLT
I recovered this 1916 D Wheat Penny at a house built in 1904. Found with my XLT.
Foreign Coins (Non-U.S.)
The large coins in the center are from Mexico.
Bullets
All found on area beaches, the large ones in the top row are .50 cal. The smaller bullets in the second row are .30 cal. The round clumps in the third row are bullets before cleaning.
Fishing: Weights, Lures and Hooks
This is just a sampling, as I need them I move them into my tackle box...
