Hamil in Atlanta contacted me about his recently lost wedding ring. He had just finished some yardwork and was standing on his raised porch brushing grass off his pants when his ring came off. He heard it “ping” on the rocks below but after hours of searching, he was unable to find it. He continued his visual search for a few days, but was still not able to locate the ring. He described the ring as a 24k gold band with he and his wife’s initials engraved on the inside of the band. I began my search by working the grassy area in a grid pattern. I found several pull tabs, a key, and other various metal objects, but no ring. Next, I searched in the landscaped area which is covered in river rocks but still no ring. After 2 hours of searching, I mentioned to him the only place I am unable to search is near the metal edging separating the river rocks from his grass. So he pulled up the metal edging so I could search that ground. Sure enough, after just a few more minutes of searching, I got a soft 50 signal on my Equinox 900 and out popped his gold wedding ring! Hamil was thrilled to have his ring back!
