Westport CT Back yard platinum Cartier wedding ring found in record making time July 2025

For Jeff and his family a normal routine of placing his ring on a table and then going into the pool resulted in the ring being tossed into the yard. Jeff had placed his ring in his hat on the table and accidently put the cap on his head and the ring sailed out into the grassy , flower bed area surrounding his hot tub and deck. After spending a week on their hands and knees and even buying an Amazon detector they had no success, then Jeff heard about me from a news broadcast and gave me a call to investigate. After sending me a few pictures and a video tape of his yard  had a possible idea of what could have happened. I wanted to search the bushes and grassy area next to the flower bed. I surveyed the area and started detecting avoiding the electrical wires in the garden and deciding to search the area immediately adjacent to the garden and grass. I had a great signal just below the grass layer and after inserting my finger under the grass the ring came out on the tip of my finger, it was approximately 2 minutes after I had started searching. I showed him my finger and he explained I was a magician and where was it. My best guess is that his family had probably stepped on it and pushed it further into the grass so it could not be seen. The inexpensive metal detector and lack of experience did not help. He immediately texted his kids and called his wife downstairs to see the miraculous recovery that happened in my personal record breaking time. They were stunned and in disbelief that they had not found it.  I admit that I had been lucky to choose the right area and first logical choice and know my detector and the signals matching a platinum ring. It could have been a long search if the lawn mower had caught it and tossed it into the woods or if it had been taken out in the mulched grass clippings. A good day for all and two hours on the road to then start another search nearby.
