This is just a story about what a Minnesota thunter has found detecting, and he's done quite well for himself. But a part of it that interested me was about detecting Melbourne Beach in Florida. That has to be one great place to hunt. Sue

"One of the crashes is about 600 feet out from where our camper is located."

He has recovered some of the artifacts from the Spanish fleet, and donated some to the McLarty Treasure Museum in Sebastian, Fla.

However, Terry keeps his most prized possession around his neck.

He found a coin dated 1701, which is the only known coin of that year in existence.

Other notable finds include a 1655 coin authenticated to have been on the infamous Captain Henry Morgan's ship.

"I've also found a bracelet encased in coral that is from the 1700s," he said, noting he saved it from the coral by soaking it in olive oil."

He sure did good!! I have a friend that retired to Melbourne Beach and had 5th wheeler on the beach.... He is not into detecting though ...... and he moved inland.... rats or I would be a visiting. I've heard those beaches are great. I spend time in Venice, FL and haven't had much luck with the reconstituted sand beaches.....
