7/24/20 Report - Shortage of Coins in Circulation. When Humans Arrived in America. Two Named Storms Now.


Written by the TreasureGuide for the exclusive use of treasurebeachesreport.blogspot.com.


It might be a good time to put some of those dug coins into circulation.  The US mint is asking people to spend their coins due to a coin shortage.

Here is that link.

Artefacts, including 1,900 stone tools, showed human occupation of the high-altitude Chiquihuite Cave over a roughly 20,000 year period, they reported in two studies, published in Nature.

"Our results provide new evidence for the antiquity of humans in the Americas," Ciprian Ardelean, an archeologist at the Universidad Autonoma de Zacatecas and lead author of one of the studies, told AFP.

"There are only a few artefacts and a couple of dates from that range," he said, referring to radiocarbon dating results putting the oldest samples at 33,000 to 31,000 years ago.


Here is the link for more about that.




People make too many broad generalizations from too little evidence for my liking.  That is not science, in my opinion.  

The way the term "science" has been abused misused so much lately, especially in regard to COVID, that I almost want to quit using the term altogether.  "Data" is another term that is being thrown around in a way that makes it nearly meaningless.

Yesterday I mentioned the number one most-read post of the Treasure Beaches Report.  The second most read was a 2013 post about two hurricanes and the most searched collectible categories.  

Here is the link.


I can't tell why it was so popular.  Maybe it was the hurricanes and maybe it was the collectibles or something else.

We have two named storms now -  Hanna and Gonzalo.  

Hanna is heading towards Texas and Gonzalo is predicted to stay well south of Florida.

The Treasure Coast surf will remain in the two to three foot range for at least a few days.

Happy hunting,
