I've been metal detecting for many years, but have only found 2 cell phones, and both in the same place. In January 2008 I found a cell phone near the swings in a local park. I turned on the phone, found it was a T-Mobile phone, and brought it to a local T-Mobile store so they could return it to the owner. This morning, same place but right under the swing seat, I found an iPhone, using my new tone Golden uMax with my recently acquired 7" Widescan coil. I brought the iPhone to an AT&T store and they will track down the owner.

Last week I found a new I-phone 5,with headphones at a tot lot that I always pick.It was on the ground semi covered with the shredded wood they had as a base at the tot -lot.I picked it up & turned it on ,it had only one picture on it,and I guessed it was of the owner,taking at the Apple store,no contact numbers at all.So I put it in my pocket and kept it on detecting.About an hour later the phone rings and a women on the other end asks me if I found her phone(Duh!),I tell her yes,and she tells me don't leave that there's a reward.Well I wait for about 20 minutes ,because she can't remember where it/ I was.Right when I'm about to call it quits,she pulls up in a truck an asks me if I found a new I-phone 5 ,I said yes & told her she looked better in person than on her phone,she thanks me and than ask's if I like BBQ,I said yes .and then she gives me a $20 gift card to Rudy's BBQ( a bbq place here in Texas).
