Should have done what I did. Gave up after about an hour and wondered bach up beach. Met old fella with dog I'd seen before. He finds a nice spot out of the wind and just sits there throwing a ball for his dog.
I stayed there, sitting in the Sun, out of the wind, having a smoke and a natter for another hour and then went home with NOTHING in my finds bag.
All in all it's a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon.

Should be gold amongst all those oldish coins Mike - remember that at Aberavon the goodies are not necessarily at the low tide mark but more at the top or middle of the beach.  Look out for exposed rocks not normally seen or any unusual things sticking out of the beach.  This beach was very popular to the Victorians.  Good luck pet - you more than deserve it for all the effort you put in.

If you are lucky enough to see Coal on the surface then you're made

 sorry to hear you did'nt get anything jassy,yes nice to meet you if i new anyone was going to be there i would have popped my teeth in lol. like i told you we were a bit early in the month.full moon time i have found is best ,i only went down there cos i did'nt have anything else to do. i was very lucky because most of the beach eas sanded in,just found a little patch behind a sandbar that was giving me old coins that were only 2 inches deep so i gridded that area.that ring is well knackered and looks like it has been thrown about in the surf a lot.
 i have seen rings come off the little beach last month but i only get fishing weights and tons of ring pulls off there so i go on the big beach
 the surf was rough so something nice could pop up,i have yet to suss out what happens with the wind direction and its relation to the beach,learning all the time
  good luck
