I lost my ring in the river, I called metal detectorist Dwight C. (864)535-4347 Recently, I was called out to the Edisto River in Orangeburg, SC, to help find a lost ring. The owner had flipped her kayak and figured the ring had gone missing out in the current. The river had that dark “Coca-Cola” tint but was surprisingly clear beneath the surface.
I had been searching for almost an hour and a half, and honestly, I was running low on air. On top of that, I kept glancing over my shoulder because it felt like the kind of place where an alligator might just show up to add a little extra excitement.
In the end, just as I was about to wrap up, I found the ring near the riverbank where she’d first stepped in. It hadn’t made it out to the middle at all. Just a good reminder that sometimes the simplest explanation is the right one. Another successful recovery and a happy owner.
