22k Gold Ring Lost in the Snow is Recovered in Schaumburg, Illinois
Saturday morning while searching for a set of keys for another client, I received a phone call from Karteek. When I was able to return his call he asked if I looked for lost jewlery. I assured him that I most definitely do search for lost jewlery. He went on to tell me that he had just lost a gold ring in his backyard, and with the snow storm that we had the day before he couldn’t locate it in the deep snow in his yard. We figured I was only about 15 minutes away, so I told him that I was on my way and I’d be there shortly! When I arrived Karteek met me by the garage and took me around into the backyard. I could clearly see where he had been standing and where the snow was disturbed in their attempts to find the missing ring. So I started a small grid search, starting left to right. After about 5 passes and along the right side of the grid pattern I got solid 20 on the Equinox 800. I used my Garrett pinpointer to then search the deep snow. The pinpointer immediately went off indicating that something very shallow was very close. So I started to sift through the snow until I seen the glint of gold!! I had Karteek come over and see it laying in the snow. He immediately grabbed it and slid it back on to his finger where it belongs!
Success!!
Another smile for the book!!
