Second December hunt

I did not manage a hunt yesterday but today, despite van starting issues, I did get out for about 2.5 hours.
I went to a different beach at low tide.
Again I was disappointed to see flat, flat sand with no real low spots.
There had been some erosion higher up, so that is where I concentrated my efforts.

The first thing I found was the trowel!
A lot of nails and iron...$4.35 in coin, a Norwegian coin, keys, weights and one gold pendant.

It is always nice to find a bit of gold, this is 2.3 grams. 

                                                                  I'm not sure about the markings but 

I did find similar cartouches on Japanese Ebay with similar markings.

So...today was a little better, but far from spectacular.
