gold struck west coast

Gold  struck west coast !!

Today's  finds started off with Brett at Mairangi Bay on the north shore at 4am  . unfortunately the beach was sanded in :( how ever Brett and I did manage to dig some coins, between us we dug 4 thrupences a hand full of modern coins and  one silver pendant with cz diamonds ( that one was all  me) :) 7am came and brett had to head  off to work with his head bowed low from disappointment from not hitting gold :(.

The afternoon came and I got ichy feet once again, so I decided to ring Steve who was very keen after digging gold a couple days prior.
We decided to hit the park at muriwai beach, after half an hour of bad targets I started to come across coins, continued to dig a hand full of coins then I came across a very broken mid range signal which i would not normally dig, since the ground was clean and targets far and few between I procceded to dig it and you would not belive it, out popped a 9ct gold bracelet:) :) ye ha!!
 Happy detecting!!
