Lost Engagement Ring Found on Beach in Eastham, Cape Cod, MA

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

Others using several different detectors over many hours had  search the beach area during a ten day period before I had my chance to detect  the area. In an hour and forty minutes on the beach I dug over 50 pull tabs and  bottle caps before locating the platinum ring holding onto its nine beautiful  diamonds. Somehow it had hidden from the onslaught and waited for me to unearth  it from beneath 5 inches of wet sand, just one inch above the water table. Cell  calls to Maine and frantic runs up the hill for better reception to communicate correct  information culminated in another Happy Ending with a big Smile on Nicole’s  face for my memory book. I will also cherish the wonderful hand made ceramic crab ornament and two candy dishes I was given.

Lost Wedding Band, Found on Cape Cod, MA returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

Lost Ring, Found Ring and returned.
A call came for help finding a very sentimental wedding band. It was silver and lost while playing soccer…possibly in the water. We were told that the French play soccer wherever one can play. I have detected many beaches on Cape Cod but this one was not on my “Been To” list. The team met with Emily and drove behind her, down a water filled dirt path, reminiscent of some of the road I had traveled in Iceland – one way and nowhere to turn around. As luck would have it, we met another car coming out and the other driver had to back up into a passing point. Once at the beach two of us hit the water and the third detectorist worked the wooded area.
About 25 minutes into the search which expanded well beyond the small swimming area a low-hi signal came into my ears from my Garrett Infinium detector and in a few seconds my scoop was holding the silver wedding band. A few seconds later the ring was returned.
Another ending with smiles!
