Found a nice gold ring!......

[Mike from MI]

Searched one night for a missing men's wedding band, and after about 30 trash targets no dice. I remember in the middle of the search area were several overload iron targets. Searching 3 days later in the same area I decided that maybe that ring was being masked by the iron even though the ring was on top. So I decided to dig those overload iron targets, and sure enough the first scoop produced two 16D nails with the ring in the scoop also! Glad to find and return this heavy 14 band to a very happy guy!

Good job. I sent several hours the other day looking for a ring that was missing when a burgler was captured. The owner felt the thief after drinking all his whiskey and going through a box of 9 mm with his stolen gun shooting at a locked box to get at the jewelry, then lost it ! I recovered lots of brass from several different calibers and lead, no large gold ring with diamonds. Will try again, but the area was also a dump site so my odds are not good considering that it was 14 years ago and the burgler covered a couple miles on foot after opening the box.

nice find!
