Title: Back from the beach with 3 silvers!!! Post by: wondering on June 12, 2015, 02:10:25 PM Well I went away for a week and managed 2 evenings of 3 hrs each on the beach with the detector and I really enjoyed it and will do it again. I did however pull more melted aluminium out of the sand than I care to admit ( curse the person that made it), but I was very happy with what I managed to come away with.

Title: Re: Back from the beach with 3 silvers!!! Post by: wondering on June 12, 2015, 07:11:34 PM Thanks guys, The half crown was a real surprise, and as ive never found a foreign coin before the florin was even bigger. Needles to say I will be making a few trips to that part of the beach in the future ;D you never know maybe there's a gold one around waiting for me lol now that would be pushing my luck :D

Post by: wondering on June 12, 2015, 09:23:52 PM Well I'll take what I can get, at this point I would have classed an Irish coin as Foreign lol, ok ok lets just say its the only coin I have had that is from across water lol, that or I just take the comment back and we pretend it was never said ;D

Title: Re: Back from the beach with 3 silvers!!! Post by: wondering on June 13, 2015, 10:23:32 AM Thank you for the correction Geoff I always thought a florin was from Brittany but now I know :D and feel the wiser for it ;)
