VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) – Metal detecting is a giant game of lost and found for Henry “Tuffy” Braithwaite. Braithwaite spends hours scouring the sands of Virginia Beach almost every day.

But when Braithwaite struck gold last week, he picked up the phone and did the right thing.

Some recent finds

Here are a few finds from detecting this week. It is always nice to pick up a few pre-decimal coins. First a trip to a river bank.

Mixed bag of modern, pre-dec and some relics including some flintlock minnies

Next, a new spot I found. First target was a florin 🙂

Adelaide is a wonderful place to live. The detecting options are endless with coin, relic and gold locations everywhere 🙂
