I don't know how you lost these, or just got so excited about your find that you walked off and left them, but I have your AT Pro (you'll need to ID the stickers on the housing and upper rod), and your pinpointer, that was beside the hole you didn't fill :laughing7:

Call me 914-589-3985 I hunted the area for almost two-hours after I found your rig waiting for you to come back. Got some Indian Heads but not much else. :skullflag:
 

I take it you did not need a detector to find them? :laughing7:

You are a true gentleman Sir, :occasion14:

Just food for thought.....you may have shown up too late for the good stuff! :tongue3:

It was the aliens, butt (lol) they took my tector and pointer and must have zoomed over yonder and left it next to a(nother) hole!
 

Jeez...I hope whoever those belong to wasn't taken against their will or killed. That's just too strange. I can't imagine finding anything so exciting to run off without those!

That's VERY KIND of you to look for the owner Terry.

Good Luck.. I'll be hoping for Good News!!

I actually checked in with the Police Department, and gave them my contact info. I even tacked a note with my card in a plastic bag I found nearby, to a tree near the hole. I have been detecting that area for a couple years, and I've never seen another detector. Yeah, it's weird! ???
 

MYSTERY SOLVED!!!!:hello2:

I got a telephone call from a fellow this morning, who told me a story I won't soon forget. Tom, dropped his very pregnant wife off at her job at Vassar College, and scooted over to the park to get in a couple hours of detecting on his day off. He had just dug his first Standing Liberty when his telephone rang. His wife's office manager was calling to tell him she had gone into labor and was on her way to the hospital by ambulance. He freaked, and forgot his detector and pinpointer as he ran back to his car, and sped off to the hospital.

He and his wife are now first time parents (little girl named Shannon). At some point last night Tom remembered the machine and pinpointer. When he went back this morning he found my note on the tree and called. Long story short, he'll be picking up the machine in a couple days after the baby comes home. How's that for a great story!!:occasion14:
 

That's a happy ending if ever I heard one!
God job Terry.
 

Great story Terry, congrats on the return! :notworthy:
 

Terry you should read him the riot act for not filling that hole before leaving! lol just kidding. Great job on a different yet just as satisfying return :)
 

One of the better stories I've read this year!!!

Terry, you've again become one of my heros!
 

Glad To Hear the Great News! I really thought this one might have a bad ending!

Excellent Job all the way around Terry! I'm sure he was both shocked and appreciative of the honesty and all of the effort you exuded trying to locate him to return his property.

Thanks For Sharing this Story and Definitely an Honorable Mention is in Order.

Very nice of you he's lucky somebody didn't walk off with it, that would be my luck. I don't leave mine for a second any place there might be other people around. HH
 

I'm going to get a pic when he comes down. Thanks everyone!!:occasion14:
 

Thomas (Tom) Francis, made it down to White Plains, today, to pick up his AT Pro and pinpointer! Very nice guy, and he brought me a reward!!! His wife made me a dozen Jamaican Beef Patties (sandwiches)! WAY cool!!!:hello2:
