As I was searching for another wedding band in a corn play area, the owner Jennifer told me about another ring that was lost about a month prior. It was an old family heirloom ring that an 11 year old girl was wearing and lost it in the corn pit play area. I first found Katie’s wedding band who had found me through TheRingFinders website. I then continued to search the entire play area and after about 30 minutes in the cold and wind, I found a very nice looking ring. I gave the ring along with my business cards to Jennifer so she could secure it and contact the owner. Even though I have not met or spoke to this owner, I’m sure they’ll be very happy getting their ring back. I have been to this same area twice and have found 4 rings in total. I just love reuniting lost jewelry to their rightful owners. Call me at 610-207-8677 for any lost jewelry in Central and Eastern Pennsylvania.

I received a call from Katie who said she lost her wedding ring in a large corn play area, a place I had been to find another ring a month earlier. Walking in the corn pit is difficult and you need to remove your socks and shoes. It was a very cold and windy day during my search and my feet become numb within minutes. I found a ring, but unfortunately it was not Katie’s wedding band, so I continued to search and found her ring shortly after. I texted her a photo to confirm that I had the correct ring as she was unable to meet me at the site. She was so excited that I found it and we made arrangements to return it back to her. No matter where a lost item may be, whether on land, water or even in corn, call me at 610-207-8677.

September 27th: Recovered an engagement ring lost in 20 feet of water.
Jack’s Waterfront Bar in Morehead City has a deck built over the water with a beautiful view. It was a great location for Ashley and Jon to become engaged with a gathering of family and friends. Jon had a ring specially made to match the wedding band which belonged to Ashley’s mother. They were posing for photographs on that Friday evening the one of a kind ring was dropped. It rolled between the boards and into the water! They hired a local salvage diver who searched with a metal detector, but he could not find the ring.

Enter the heroine of our story–Megan, a good friend of the couple, contacted the creator of The Ring Finders, Chris Turner. Chris put her in touch with the very successful Ring Finder in our region, Brian Rudolph. Brian is incredible at researching all the information needed for a big job like this. He even spoke with the salvage diver to get the details on the environmental conditions. Unfortunately Brian was unable to make the trip, so he referred Ashley and Jon to me. Brian contacted me and gave me the information he had about the conditions. I got a text from Ashley and we discussed the possibility of a search. As luck would have it, we were planning to leave the very next day for a family vacation to Nag’s Head, NC. Since we would be in NC, a twelve hour round trip would be cut in half.
My son Matthew gave up his first day of vacation to join me as my safety diver. We shared the driving and enjoyed the time together. Arriving at the site early Monday afternoon, we met Ashley, Jon, his dad Trevor, and Uncle Sonny. They showed us where the ring dropped, and then took a boat across to Sugarloaf Island to wait with their three large dogs. The floating dock in front of the bar became my gear staging location and made entering and exiting the water easier.

In the water

Search Area
Using Brian’s excellent information about the diving and bottom conditions, I had all the equipment needed for the search. The water was 75 degrees, it was high tide, and visibility was about four feet. I was well into my preliminary search with a pin-pointer detector, when just at the edge of my view, something large swam past. As it passed by in the murky water, I saw the tail and realized it was big sting ray. The graceful visitor certainly made me a little more aware of my surroundings…
The area under the bar’s dock had the usual discarded building materials mixed with shells, silt and other trash. Because the ring might be masked by other metal, I needed to carefully check all signals. I found screws, bits of aluminum, and coins. After about an hour I surfaced to change tanks and warm-up. While on the dock, a fisherman was getting ready to drop bait. After my encounter with the large ray, I didn’t hesitate to ask him to move farther down the waterfront. Thankfully he did. While on my second dive, I heard a lot of boat traffic noises as fishing charters returned from their offshore trips. Matthew had been following my search from above and suggested I concentrate a little farther west from our weighted drop line. I took his advice, and that is where I found Ashley’s ring. I surfaced and shouted with joy! It must have been pretty loud because the family heard me from the island and headed our way.

Ring!

Returning to the Dock

Back in Hand

This Says it All
While we were enjoying the elation of the find, Trevor mentioned it was good I was out of the water because of sharks. Matthew and I looked over at the nearby dock as fishermen where cleaning their catch and dumping the remains into the water. While we were driving back to Nags Head, Megan called to congratulate us on a successful recovery.

Matthew Jon Ashley and Rob
There were some things about this recovery that were serendipitous. First, Megan called Chris Turner, creator of The Ring Finders directory. Second, we were leaving for NC the day after Ashley called. Next, Brian’s details were spot on, and fourth the weather was beautiful. Fortunately, there was a floating dock (not shown on the satellite photo) and was a slack high tide. My son was available to be my safety diver, drive, and help with the heavy gear. Finally, my skills, experience, and equipment were crucial to locating the ring.
Several weeks later, Matthew sent me some pictures of large bull sharks caught at the same location of our search. Mentally, I know I’m not on the shark’s menu, but it was a lot easier to be brave before seeing those photographs!!

August 29th: Found and returned a silver engagement ring lost while doing yard work.

Sabawan lost a ring while seeding his lawn. He and his family searched for several hours before calling me. Two hours later, I arrived and meet Sabawan and his cousin. We walked the yard and they showed me an extensive area where they had been dethatching and re-seeding the lawn. Although Sabawan didn’t feel the ring leave his finger, he had confidence it was in a particular area on the left side of the lawn. After setting up my grid, I searched toward that particular area. As Sabawan and his cousin watched, I hit upon a target indication in the correct range. Using my probe, I scraped the fresh dirt and seed, uncovering his beautiful ring.

Sabawan Smile!
Afterward, Sabawan showed me some photos of his beautiful bride to be. It is my sincere hope she has a safe and rapid journey out of Afghanistan.

A couple of metal detecting buddies of mine called me up and asked if I wanted to join in on a search. While out hunting they were approached by a man whose son had lost a cross pendant with his wife’s ashes in it. I didn’t have my equipment with me but seeing that the site was just off my route home, I stopped to say « Hello » and see how it was going. What happened next was very unexpected. Watch the video to see the ending.
I received a message yesterday afternoon asking if I could help find a lost wedding ring. They explained to me that the ring was lost about 100 feet off shore while taking a surf lesson. My client said he felt it come off as he was paddling on to the wave in about 3-4 feet of water. Asked him to send me a picture of the area highlighting where the ring was lost. Also a picture of the Ring. My client only had the ring 4 days!! Anyway we set a time to search first thing in the morning, about 2 hours into the search Honeymoon Saved. Blessed to Do what I DO


I received a text from Danielle saying she lost her wedding and engagement rings along a busy road near Scranton PA. She told me the rings could possibly be in very thick brush and high grass along the roads guardrail. I began searching which was made difficult because of the thick brush and lots of aluminum cans and trash along the road. After about 45min of searching, I decided to walk along the road to see if the rings could be on the roadway. I found the engagement ring along the curb which had obvious damage from getting run over by cars. I continued to search for the wedding band but could not find it. Danielle was beyond thrilled that I found the most valuable ring because of the diamonds. Her plans are to contact a jeweler to see if they can fix the ring or reset the diamonds in a new band. No matter where you may have lost jewelry, don’t hesitate to call me.
