Hi Gin, that beach was beautiful, I loved the color of the ocean. It was good to see you out hunting again. We missed you1 I'm glad you're doing well. Take care, looking forward to your next video.
So glad to see you again Gin! It has been way to long!!! But I understand with your home being remodeled after the fire. I hope all is well with that! So good to see and hear you and the the hunt is on again for treasures!!! Big Hugs!
Thanks ever so much!❤️ The house still has a long way to go, but I’m finally back on firm ground and back on the road doing what I love. My heart feels better and getting back on the road has given it wings.🙂🍀
Great to see you Gin! The Bahamas are so beautiful, you looked comfortable, like you were home. The beach is a fun spot to hunt and you just never know what you’re going to find, a square coin or a giant bolt! Any way you look at it, you’re outdoors soaking up the sun and playing in the sand! Thanks for taking me along 🤗
A true pleasure to see you back dear sweet lady. You bring pleasure to detectorists in chilly old England chipping through the ice. Me and me lad picked up a 100 to 200 AD roman enamelled stud in mint confirmed by FLO....on way to museum next week......Thats why my sweet lucky Gin we keep swinging.....We love you sweet girl to bits in sunny old England,,,keep swinging girl....IAN AND CONNOR...
Thanks for putting a smile on my face with your lovely comment, and congratulations on that epic find! I hope I have such luck this fall when I visit for a hunt.🍀
What a beautiful and peaceful place to treasure hunt. The sound of the waves and your voice was calming. I was waiting for the excited yell, doubloon! Maybe next time.
It was incredibly beautiful - I really enjoyed it. It was one of the hottest and most humid places I’ve ever hunted though.🥵 I was hoping for that doubloon too!🍀
Really beautiful beach and great finds Congratulations!🎉 It would be great to see more videos from there! You could use a rock polisher, soap and quartz to remove the crustacean! 🍀
Thank you. Fancy new camera, and new royal pain in the backside editing software. It apparently defaulted to the lowest setting during the download without me knowing it. This second upload is the max setting it has. Think I’m going back to my old camera and editing software!
Indeed it has been a gloomy January, my friend. I know everybody is snowed in, so I’m bringing the sunshine and beach to you. I hope you are doing well - it’s always a delight to see you pop in.🙂🍀
Nice to see your back it’s been a while. Glad to see you are OK. Great video sand looked real soft were any of them quarters silver 1964 and below can’t wait for the next video.
Thank you - it’s good to be back and finally hunting again.🙂 Unfortunately I didn’t have any silver, unless one of those heavily encrusted coins turns out to be silver. I kinda think the one with black encrusting might be.🤞🍀
Welcome back and good to see you again. It’s been way too cold here to be detecting, will have to wait another month or two before I can. I guess I’m gonna have to tag along with you on your adventures.
Thank you! It’s definitely been too cold lately - that’s why I headed south for the beaches. I’m glad to have you tag along - fingers crossed we find gold!😉🙌🍀
I love your digs. As for cleaning your finds you can use a cheep rock tumbler from harbor freight and some Lemi shine from the dish washer soap area at your local store, we also use stainless steel pins in with the stuff to be cleaned. This works really well on everything but zinc penny's the have damage. Some will take 10 minutes some will take an hour or more depending on what you want the final product to look like. Hope that help you. Keep finding the treasures.
that beach is almost as beautiful as you are -- everytime i see a video of your which are awesome for the next 4 days your i think about im sure you have heard that before love your videos GOD BLESS YOU
Wonderful video. Glad you got to enjoy hunting and also vacationing in a beautiful place. It’s was cool to see you create a new way to dig with shoveling under the pin pointer and bringing both up! I think the pin pointer needs a name like the magnifying glass, Sherlock, does!
@@LuckyGin looking forward to the next video. I’m glad you have a such upbeat view toward life. Have a great day because it is the only type of day to accept!
Great video Lucky Gin, been missing you from Tampa BAY FLORIDA USA 🍀your looking wonderful with all those beautiful freckles. Perhaps there is a treasure chest berried there with those keys. That is a beautiful beach. Dunedin beach in Florida's westcoast / treasure coast looks very similar to that beach with a lot of rocks like those corrals. Looks like life is been treating you good, you've made it past the holidays in one piece. GOD bless you and yours. Safe travels Ms Lucky Gin🍀🤗💚
Thanks my friend, and thanks for the info about Dunedin Beach. That sounds like a spot I should check out. I’m thankful to have the holidays behind me and finally be back out on the road in a fresh new year. I hope you are well!🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin I am well thanks; if you should come to Dunedin beach, shoot me a text and I would love to show you around and maybe be your treasure hunt caddy and hang out with you.
Wonderful to walk on the beach with you and do some hunting! Was nice to experience some sun and waves instead of the rain, snow, and clouds here in Wisconsin. Salt and white vinegar seem to be the best way to get the coins cleaned up. After they are all clean, be sure to soak them in distilled water. Otherwise, all that work was for not. Thanks for the hunt, and I look forward to the next one! 🏝
Thanks so much for popping by and sharing your tip. I’d never heard anyone mention putting coins in distilled water after the vinegar, so I appreciate you mentioning it. I’d tried vinegar on some of these but didn’t get much result.
Hi LG, thats a good haul and a lot of crusty coins must be the salt water, its good to see you enjoying life and living the dream. Added a like and FB share too. Cheers.
Glad to see you back at it Gin! Hope your house is getting back to normal. Did customs give you a hassle about bringing your detector & pinpointer? I went to Jamaica last year and I sure wanted to bring mine but didn’t want to risk it getting confiscated. Glad your not getting overwhelmed with pull tabs and bottle caps like we do in Biloxi.
Thanks my friend. Alas, the home still has a long way to go.😣 I was nervous about taking my gear too, but nobody batted an eye. They are just trying to push you through as fast as possible and I guess they must see them a lot because no questions were asked.
Thank you - it may be a few videos before I know. Most of my equipment is in storage, and it looks like it’s going to require an ultrasonic or tumbler to get to the bottom of those encrusted coins.
Hello again, Gin. We missed you. Great finds on this outing, coins, keys, jewelry & all... I would probably recommend against any coin (etc.) cleaning...before checking closely for all dates, mint marks, origin, etc, if you can see them...don't destroy a valuable or rare collectible item... ...BUT, you could probably safety break off most of the crud with a good-quality ultrasonic cleaner unit filled to recommended depth with distilled water (and -optionally- a couple of drops of Dawn dish soap, added). Beyond that, and ONLY on items of little or no value, you could use hydrogen peroxide (soak), or stick the items into split potatoes for a few hours/days... sounds crazy, but it works... 'Can't wait to see where you venture next... Always, all the best wishes...(from Florida).
Aaah, here’s my friend Doug with the knowledge! I knew you’d pop in with some good tips.🙌 Fear of ruining something old and cool is why these are still crusty…I didn’t want to do anything extreme until I figured out the best approach. I guess I’ll wait for a while to know what these are because my ultrasonic is packed up in a storage warehouse somewhere. Where in Florida are you, Doug? I might be nearby….😉🤫
@@LuckyGin I'm West/Northwest of St. Augustine (30 minutes) & South of Jacksonville (50-60 minutes), drive times, not miles.... Florida's "Gold Coast"/shipwrecks, etc., forts, Spanish trails, Civil War era (battles & camps), old & modern military encampments/based), beaches for detecting, parks, major river (St. Johns), lakes, etc., are all RIGHT HERE. Love it. This area is FULL of history & is historically rich with detecting finds. Back in the day, the St. Johns River brought many wealthy visitors to the area, and very prominent American figures invested here. Then there were Native American tribes & nations here in the vicinity. What's NOT to love about all that, for a detectorist? Well, that's the summary, but there's more to tell... I take a "laid-back" approach to all of it, but finding "things of interest" in THIS area is NOT difficult. I've lived in major METRO areas, country/rural areas of the USA, too. I'm "home", here, ...FINALLY. Ironically, my passion is for MUSIC (songwriting, etc.), though I never took formal lessons (long story). Maybe more about all that, later. 'Hope that gives you an idea of this part of Florida, and the reasons I came here (there's more to that story, but not important, now). I'll help you with your passion of detecting, if you wish. You might consider a "second home" in Florida, for the area, the warm(er) winters, etc., AND it would give you a "base of winter operations".

Thanks for the reply Gen. I really don't see how you keep that beautiful smile on that pretty face. Sometimes it seems as if there was not bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. I wish I could help somehow. All I can do is love your vids and remain your invisible friend. Hang in there.
Such a great video from the Bahamas. I know the Gigmaster on TH-cam uses electrolysis and a rock tumbler to clean stuff such as coins. He also has a travel scoop from Extreme Scoops that has a 3 part handle that he uses when he goes on cruises. He has videos on both.
Thank you. I’m surprised with so many coins that were older there wasn’t at least one silver. You never know I guess. I’d love to hunt that spot again someday because I bet there’s something good there, it just eluded me this trip.🙂

I'll be in Nassau the 18th.

@@LuckyGin Those two can detect anything. Plastic waste is issue in America these days
Great video. I love the format you use. Instructional yet personal. Love the scoop technique. Good stuff!
Wow! So beautiful! The beach is too.

Thank you. I wish my house was sorted, but unfortunately, still months to go.🤦🏼♀️
Great to have you back. You look healthy and refreshed and so far your finds are great. Keep that tan oil on.
Thanks my friend. Taking some time off to just think and sort things out helped a lot. I’ve got my oil,packed and back on the road at last.🙂

It's up from 360p to 720p now. Noticeably better but still not the usual 1080p. Hello from So Cal - we also beach detect all year round! 😀
