Mike found me in the Ring Finders Directory after losing his wedding band Thanksgiving weekend. He was enjoying his holiday and playing football in the backyard of his in-laws house in Warrington, PA when his ring came up missing. After searching for hours and even purchasing a cheap metal detector at Harbor Freight he could not locate the lost ring. He reached out to me Saturday and I made arrangements to meet him the next day. He shared that the lost ring was made of tungsten so when I arrived at the house I brought along a matching tungsten ring so I could calibrate my metal detector and demonstrate the machine for Mike…I wanted him to have complete confidence that if I went over the ring…I wouldn’t miss it! The backyard was about 1/3 of an acre and he told me was playing football mostly toward right/middle…so as I always do I started my search in the most likely area. A ring on the surface has a very unique signature….so while I was getting quite a few signals I was hyper focused on a very unique signal…It didn’t take long…5 minutes into the search…BOOM….there was the signal I was looking for. I looked down…and there was his beautiful ring! He had gone inside and was watching me with his family from inside a glass sliding door across patio…I triumphically held up the ring for all to see…and pretty sure I heard joyful screams from him and his family! He came out…lots of high fives…and amazement at the quick successful search! I was very happy to be able to come through and return his ring to him!!!
