Today, I had my first "hired" find. I say hired loosely, as there was no payment of any kind discussed or expected. It's more like I was asked if I would help and I did. A lady my uncle knows dropped the key to her shed in her yard. My uncle asked me to bring my detector and see if I could find it. After 10-15 minutes of hunting, I found the little bugger. It was a small Masterlock key and it was the color of an old penny. Felt good to find something for someone else.
 

Congrats on the key return! Someday you will be asked to find a lost ring and that is a great feeling when you find it!

I've done a fair amount of that underwater, mostly paid, but may favours for friends, family etc. All of my searching has been done by sight &/or touch. I really should buy an u/w metal detector. I was hired once to find a family heirloom engagement ring, valued at 25g's at the time. It was lost in the polluted, no-visibility waters of a marina. Myself and another diver set up a grid and searched by touch for 5 hours with no luck ( regrettably, 3 divers had been in before us & stirred the bottom up pretty bad ). We had to leave, so the owner hired a chap who used a metal detector. He searched for 50 hours, so I'm told, before finding the ring. Good on him to show such patience!
