Lost ring in Kirksville Mo…. Found with a metal detector

Contact:

A very nice young man named Kyle called me about trying to recover his 14K wedding band.

He was walking a friend’s dog on a leash in a park when the dog bolted for some reason twisting his fingers and his ring flew off.

He borrowed a metal detector but being unfamiliar with it couldn’t find the ring. This was his father’s ring so he really wanted to find it.

We were there a little over two hours, gridding different sections where the ring was lost when I found it. He was very happy to have it back.

Lost Ring … Found near Riverside Iowa

Contact:

I found a 14K wedding band with diamonds on Monday for a lady. It was the second time looking for it. It was lost of all places in a goat barn. The barn floor was cement and full of iron and impossible to detect anything in.

So the husband cleaned it all out. It was like a needle in a haystack outside the barn but I got lucky and found it on top of the mounds of hay and muck.

Lost Gold Cross…Found At Iowa City, Iowa

Contact:

I received a call about a lost gold cross. They were in Iowa City for the Hawkeye homecoming game against Northwestern. They were tailgating before the game when a girl lost her sentimental gold cross that was once her grandmothers.

There was a grassy area where she thought it could have come off the chain around her neck. I arrived at halftime and did a grid search in the area for around 90 minutes until I found it.

It was a happy ending for everyone and the Hawks won too!

Helped find wedding band and engagement ring in Coralville Iowa today!

Contact:

I had a call from Nora saying she lost her wedding ring and engagement ring today. Last night we had a major snowstorm with at least 9 to 10 inches of snow. She came out of her apartment this morning and decided to throw a snowball at her husband. She shook her hands to get the snow off and her rings flew too. We got lucky and found them both thanks to a neighbor who was happily helping to look for them.

Lost Rings…Found Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Contact:

I was contacted by a woman who lost her engagement ring and wedding band while cooling off in about four feet of water at a city park.

She met me there today and stood in about the same area and I was able to recover both rings. It was gratifying to return her rings. I think she said the engagement ring was 50 years old and was handed down in the family.
