Johnny White's Bio

My name is Johnny White. I have been a hobby metal detectorist over 31years. In that time I have had the privilege of helping a great many people find their lost items. I have found everything from lost jewelry to long lost coin stashes for people. I am proud to work with The Ring Finders, and help people find their lost valuables at little to no cost. I am a member of the Dig-It All Metal Detecting and Treasure hunting club in Ashland, KY. I use only the most high tech equipment available on the market, and my team and I have decides of expense and knowledge in all different aspects of treasure recovery. Anytime, that I have ever helped someone with treasure recovery, it has always been done with compleat confidentiality. The cost of many of my services is completely based on a reward fee; meaning that I need only get paid for what your recovery was worth to you. My team and I are also capable of doing a lot of specialty recoveries, that require special equipment. I am able to offer services like underwater recovery at a very minimal fee, because my team and I are first and foremost, hobbiest, and we love what we do.
