Want to share with you a story that happened a year ago(2013), my mother in law told me she lost her wedding ring, it was in the summer of 1968 in a hayfield working there,they had only been married for two years when she lost the ring.
She told me they searched for the the ring several times that same year with no luck. It was in october 2013 when i got out on that field to search for the ring, i thought this ring i have to find.
She explained to me where she thought she lost the ring 45 years ago. To be sure i don’t miss anything i started at the end of the field and had in mind i will grid search the field little at time and then keep on going till i have covered the hole field.
It was quite a narrow field and had been searching for about an hour and had marked the area i had covered, i thought then i will try to search the middle of the field in a line to the other end. I did not get far when i got a signal on the Deus and started to dig and out came a ring ! i tought this can not be true i sat down for a long time and just stared at it, can it be the ring ? had a look at the inscriptions and yea it was the same ring my mother in law lost 45 years ago.
When i got back home i handed over the ring to her, that moment i will remember forever.
