This past Saturday, I got a call from a young man in distress. His wife had been out in the backyard, tossing a ball to their playful Weimaraner, when she suddenly realized both her rings were missing.
My wife decided to come along with me, and before we set out, we said a short prayer that we’d be able to find them. By the time we arrived, the couple had already been searching frantically. They had managed to locate the engagement ring on a backyard trampoline, but the wedding ring was still missing.
When I fired up my Minelab Manticore, I immediately realized the yard was full of targets—signals coming from all directions. I started by scanning the area where the first ring had landed, methodically expanding my search each time.
As daylight began to fade, I finally got a strong, promising signal. I looked down—and there it was: the beautiful wedding ring, nestled in the grass, far from where anyone expected it to be.
I called the young man over and pointed to the ring’s resting place. His face lit up with pure joy! My wife held the ring for a quick picture before we returned it to its rightful owner.
