I was taking the dog for a walk this morning and came across a few good sizes pieces of coal. I remember Tagger telling me about some coal that washes ashore is from a few shipwrecks. I am sure these pieces weren't due to where they were found.
It also reminded of something I found in 2010.
The Boston Light Letter Box. It is basically a box that you sign and put somewhere for others to find. Somehow it ended up in the ocean. Pictures below.

I'm sure others have found some really interesting things, what are some of the interesting things you've found.
Check out Atlasquest.com and you can see just how popular letterboxing really is.
I believe that box was planted on 4/9/2008 and was considered lost. It was last "found" by a fellow letterboxer on 11/21/2009.

I will check to see if that is indeed the missing letterbox.

I am a legend in my own mind!
