Took the ol besser block out for a swing today, managed to get nearly $40 and a few pre dec, hit a patch of BB's and knew there would be some older coins nearby and there were. Was following the cut in the photo working along it gradually down to the water line. Some of the coins were extremely deep too as you can see from my pinpointer in the hole, a $2 coin was recovered from that hole.

Can't believe that the penny came out looking so clean, that's cetrtainly a first for me, especially being in the sand so long. There was a big swell there recently, might have been tumbled clean in the surf, anyway buggered if I know.

Have never done this beach before but it will need some more attention in the future, especially over summer.

The victory medal I found yesterday with the Nox, it's a 1919 one.

Yeah well done heatho.
What a great place to detect going by the 4th pic mate :Y: paradise.
 
Top effort :party:

That 1919 victory medal is special :cool:

I'm loving your confidence showing the place you hunted and previously name the places you hunt.

You are clearly not concerned about anyone else swinging your bessa block with your 15" coil,you are the top dog and I agree with your finds confirming so.

More great results ahead :Y:
 
A nice palm-full there Heath, you would have been blown away with the medal. :cool:

Nice find :party: :rainbow: :party:

Cheers fellas, yep nice palm full Wally, just waiting for summer at the bay now. :)

The week is still young Dave, find of the week may be yet to come. :)

Not very much competition around here fellas, I am the competition..... I'm currently competing with myself looking for places that I haven't flogged or are still replenishing over the winter months. I'm not fussed about others detecting where I do, actually I welcome it and am always happy to stop for a chat with other detectorists.

I did get a bit grumpy when someone chain gridded one of my fav beaches just before I got there but I just moved on to another spot, I had intentionally left it for a while to replenish, quick and the dead hey. :lol:
