Metal Detectorist finds a 55 year old wedding ring

A PENSIONER Joan MacLeod has been reunited with her wedding ring that slipped from her finger 55 years ago, which she lost while helping her parents gather corn on their croft at Kirkhill, Inverness, in August 1958.

Joan MacLeod and husband Duncan, both 77, had given up hope of ever seeing it again and bought a replacement.

But an amateur treasure hunter using a metal detector offered to have a go, and took less than two hours to find the 22 carat gold band.
