1 Minute recovery in Glen Ellen, Illinois

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

Received a call from Glen Ellen, lost his Platinum wedding ring while playing with his dog in the front of his house. He threw some leaves at his dog and the ring went with it. I put the small coil on my detector so I could get into the heavy ground cover where he thought it went. One of those rare but welcome times when the first time I put the coil into the ground cover I hit it, literally about 1 minute.

Received a call from a woman in Naperville, Illinois Her mother lost her 18K gold diamond earring in their yard. The daughter said her mom could not sleep the night before Anytime I get called out for an earring, I normally plan on a full day searching for it. I was plesantly surprised when I hit this one in about 10 minutes. A very quick and uneventful search except for the fact I have never searched a yard so void of targets, Normally yards are full of iron and various scrap metals, Probably the reason I hit it so quickly on my second signal. END RESULT – HAPPY ENDING

I Like a challenge, but an earring lost on sledding hill?
Received a call from a woman in Libertyville saying she lost her earring while her child was sledding, she was not sure in what area she lost it and the area was quite large.
I started out by gridding the hill and searched for over 3 hours with no success. I then asked her to walk back to her car going the same route she took getting to the hill and I would follow right behind her.
Shortly thereafter I hit it. Talk about a needle in a haystack!! Bottom line very happy when I found it and got the biggest hug!
