Title: Trip to Aberavon today. Post by: dragonsbreath(Paul) on January 08, 2012, 05:19:35 PM Finally got out to do some tectin today me and my m8t Peter took a run down to Aberavon Beach.
Thought the storms might have shifted some sand but sadly not the case. Eventually decided to start detecting on a slightly lower section of the beach behind the "apollo" We had about 30+ coins several pre decimal the oldest a veil head joey. Peter had a Silver ring with"china" stamped on it and i had a small "MIZPAH" Pendant and 2 rings one was a small 9ct childs or ladies and the other was a "best friends" ring. Weather was a balmy 12C. all in all a very pleasant day.... Was nice to get out..............PaulB. 8) Title: Re: Trip to Aberavon today.
