Lost valuables Minnesota Tag | The Ring Finders

Sam gave me a call and was wondering if theringfinders.com could help out when losing a gold necklace in 10 – 20 feet deep water, with a bunch of weeds and muck at the bottom. I said of course, we always give it our best shot no matter what. As most detectorists know, necklaces are very hard to find with a metal detector. Necklaces are thin and for some reason, they don’t register at all or are very faint. Sam knew the area he lost it in and he put me in a 25′ X 25′ area with a drop off from 8′ to 20′ deep. I made a plan to clean every piece of metal out of that area and then try to find the gold chain. It took me roughly one and half hours to clean it out and then I started my search. With no hits on the detector for 20 minutes, I received a faint hit. I went back over the area with my Excalibur detector and figured it was not just a false hit « we get a lot of false hits metal detecting. » I started to push my coil further down into the muck and zeroed in on the hit. After a little digging I felt something different in my hand than muck and weeds, I waved my hand in front of my detector and heard that nice deep tone of gold.  Another success story, which I love to write!!!!

Congrats on the necklace Sam, I know how important it is to you.

Take Care –
