Set the target : Get 2$ coin a silver coin - DONE! :-)

With such a nice weather, but no companion for the beach hunt, i decided to visit my favorite park around the corner .

My target was simple- get at least 2$ coin and one silver coin.

My excitement broke right on the first target! - it was a very nice silver ring with stones (pity its bent and missing couple of gems) :




I spent about 2 hours, finding another   S. Hague Smith Penny Traders Token
 

And the total of 6$ and a Sixpence! :-)


So, set the goal - achieve it :-)

Beach hunt#63 Silver Ring # 46

With a New Moon and Meggie on 49! gold rings for the year i couldn't sit at home.
Olly called me up for a 1 am hunt. Again, expecting little we went to Narrow Neck.
...I started from top dragging my scoop down to low tide. First Target was an awesome silver Paua Earring (that i will convert into pendant),then on the same line down silver ring and at the water edge got another silver earring!

So, i thought we gonna get some real goodies there, but nothing... i have scanned most of the beach and nothing.



Better luck next time :-)
