Been keeping a close eye on Big Red, but it had been real quiet for a long long time.

Went and checked it out just on the off chance some sand had moved and hell-yeah!!! game on.
Found sand had been stripped off the area just next to and over lapping where I’d spent most of my time last year.
Tent pegs, big iron and a heap more black sand everywhere. A lot of iron was just too big to get out, might get some out next time
Eyeballed the biggest chain I’ve ever seen on any beach just not the metal I had in mind
Scored a good amount of silver and coins, knew gold was close could smell it was 6 hours in thinking it might need a bit more thinning out, maybe another iron fest hunt or two to get some good stuff when the DF got this nice hit and a Yellow and Plat combo turned up in the scoop, had a good look around and 20mins or so later turned up an 18K Tiffany with small bling.
Not sure what the sand is doing, hope it’s still moving in the right direction. Only one way to find out stay tuned
Haul for just over 7 hours on the red in black.
18K Plat comb 2.9g, 18K Tiffany 2.52g, 12 silver and 41 coins.
Thanks for viewing.

After a polish
Hunt 2
The tide wasn’t good but had to go back. Found nothing much had changed from last time. Back to thinning out the iron Got onto some deeper silver and a few coins before being pushed up the slope a bit where I found a good patch of coins before calling it a day.
When taking picks of the trash had a look at the trashy looking Zippo I found and turned out to be an oldie, not exactly sure on the age.
Think it was made in 1937
Haul for the 4.5 hour hunt
The oldest Zippo for me
4 silver rings
42 coins
And a cold from hell
