I got a call this afternoon from a fellow who’s wife had lost her engagement ring and wedding band a few days ago. They were visiting Vermont and having fun in the Winter outdoors. They were sliding on the steep hill at their AirBnB when she crashed and rolled over. She immediately realized that her rings had fallen off. Luckily, they found her wedding band still in the sled! So, they knew the engagement ring must be nearby. They searched the best they could and finally gave up. Snow doesn’t give up small items easily!
Knowing that a metal detector was needed, they found The Ring Finders service on line and gave me a call. Fortunately, I had the afternoon off and was able to go right over. They had already left the state, so were unable to accompany me. He sent me an awesome video of her crash and all the laughing after! Between that video and all their tracks in the snow, I had a good idea about where to start the search. Literally 5 or 6 swings and I heard a strong gold signal! About 6 or 7” into the snow was her beautiful ring! I immediately sent them a photo, they were so relieved.
I drove part way to New Jersey to save them a couple hundred miles of driving and the expense of an overnight stay. She has her ring back on her finger now! None of us dared to mail it, it is too important.
