Got a call from a fellow who lost his hefty 18K gold band. He had been tossing a ball around with some friends on Carmel Beach. And actually SAW the ring launch (or felt it leave his finger or whatever). But alas, the dry sand “swallows” it. All he has is an approximate area where he suspects it landed in. But … No amount of hand sifting is working.
This one was child’s play for a metal detector, since there was no mistaking that it had been lost there (versus someone who only notices at the end of a long day, etc…). And because he was confident of the zone. And sure enough, it was right where he suspected. The first “beep” after swinging the coil around. Doh !
Glad I could help. Thanx for the tip.
