Around 1:00 in the morning, I noticed an email on my business page from Omar about a lost ring. I sent him a quick text to get some basic details and asked him to give me a call since it would be much easier to discuss everything over the phone.
Omar explained that they had spent the day at the beach, and his ring had disappeared. He believed it was either where they had been sitting or somewhere along the mid-slope down near the waterline. Since low tide was approaching overnight, I told him I’d head out first thing in the morning in case the ring had already started moving toward the surf.
When I arrived, I used the photos Omar had sent along with the beach access paths to line everything up. The tide was nearly at its lowest point, giving me the best chance of success. I began searching the entire area where he believed the ring had been lost, carefully covering the slope from top to bottom. Despite a thorough search, I wasn’t finding anything.
Something kept telling me to move a little farther south. Trusting my instincts, I shifted my search just a couple of paths over. Almost immediately, I got a deep, solid signal. One scoop later, there was Omar’s ring resting safely in the bottom of my scoop.
Omar was beyond happy to get his ring back. This recovery is another great reminder that calling NJ Ring Finder as soon as possible gives you the best chance of a successful recovery. Getting to the beach before the tides and crowds have a chance to move or bury a lost item can make all the difference.
