I found a quart bottle embossed TIPSONS Dairy. I didn't remember seeing that one before, so I did some research. Of course, like most of my bottle finds, it came from the Treasure Coast.

The bottom has a 54 on it, which is probably the date. That would make sense given the style of the bottle.
Below is what I learned.

As you can see, the surf will be decreasing today, which isn't all bad.
Yesterday the high surf made difficult access to much of the beach. I saw some areas where there were pockets of coins. They seemed to be in areas where there was a steeper slope. Where the beach fronts were wide and flat, I saw no such areas. If you see rocks or larger shells deposited on the slope, check for coins there (usually modern). Also check areas where previous erosion has reduced the layer of newer sand cover.
The treasure coins that will be found will probably come from the few areas that have produced during previous high surfs the past couple of years.
Good hunting,
