I was using my old Bounty hunter on a beach and kept getting a hit. I did not have a pinpointer. After many attempts to sift the sand, I had to resort to searching handfuls of sand. Finally found this square-cut diamond stud earring. Since then I learned to always carry a small hole hand scoop. I have since moved up to a Nokta Makro Simplex + and a Fisher F44 for my girlfriend. Still a beginner and still learning but we are both hooked.
