Lost wedding ring on Walmer beach

  • from Kent (England, United Kingdom)

I was contacted yesterday by Lee via ring finders.com who had lost his white gold wedding ring whilst playing in the sea 0n Walmer beach with his children a couple of days ago .
We arranged to meet in the car park this morning, and Lee showed me the location of the loss , he was very concerned that due to the very steep shingle bank around the area that recovery would be nigh on impossible , the tide was going out , and at the time only 2 or 3 meters of wet shingle from the high tide mark were clear of water , I gridded out the area and after about 10 minutes of searching my Equinox 800 hit on a target reading 20-22 , one sand scoop later and there was a nice silvery coloured ring showing on the shingle, Lee was amazed his precious wedding band had been recovered so easily and quickly from such a steep shingle bank , he recalled that the very strong current had pulled him down the bank and he had to thrust his hands into the shingle to stop himself being dragged into deeper water , this was the very moment Lee realised his wedding ring had been pulled from his finger .

West Wittering sun baker

  • from Kent (England, United Kingdom)

I was contacted by Jonathan about 10 days ago via Ring finders , he had just lost his Platinum wedding band whist enjoying a family day out at West Wittering beach in West Sussex .
I told him I was able to help recover his ring , as parking is only by pre booking the earliest he could get was the 30th June !!
I met Jonathan on site early this morning, his face dropped when he saw the area of beach his ring was lost on , as all the sand ( around 2ft deep had been scrapped down to hard pan , only just turned my Equinox on and had a small target immediately which turned out to be an rusty bottle cap, as I bent down to retrieve it my eye saw a silver coloured ring a few inches away laying in about 1/4 inch of fine white sand , I picked the ring up and asked Jonathan if this was his lost wedding ring , he confirmed it was , he was astounded the ring was able to be found after all the tonnes of sand had been removed , my motto is “ if you don’t look you will never find “ , another overjoyed person reunited with their lost ring thanks to Ring finders .com
