Another Ring Down! Brooklyn Job: Platinum Wedding Band Recovered in Under an Hour

Wanna hear how I spent my morning?

Last night around 10pm, I get this message from a guy named Alex:

“Hi Reuben! Got your info from theringfinders.com. I lost my platinum wedding ring playing volleyball at Domino Park in Williamsburg. It’s inscribed and all, and if your detector can find platinum, I wanna talk to you!”

We set up a 9am search. Alex couldn’t make it to the court but sent over a great description and layout of the area. It was a nice morning — overcast, a little cool, and not nearly as brutal as it could’ve been in August. Perfect weather for a little treasure hunting.

Domino Park has one court — sandy, and full of chatter from fences and nearby metal, but I came prepared. I fired up the Nokta Legend, notched out the iron, and took my time listening for that sweet, soft platinum tone.

About 45 minutes in, I got a clean, shallow signal near the back left corner of the court — where most players rotate through. Grabbed my sifter, scooped just the top layer of sand, and rescanned the spot. Silence. I shook the sifter and… bam, there it was. A platinum wedding band, sitting right on top, just waiting to be found.

Inscriptions matched. Game over.

Alex was working nearby, so I swung by and hand-delivered it to him. No extra charge for delivery 😎

Gotta say — every ring is different, but I’ve been doing enough of these to know when I’m onto something. You still need patience, the right gear, and a good set of ears, but man — it’s always a good feeling when that ring hits daylight again.

If you lose something — don’t panic, and don’t go digging holes in the sand like a maniac. Just call me.

Clucking Success: Finding a Wedding Band in a Brooklyn Chicken Coop!

Sometimes, metal detecting takes you to unexpected places—like a chicken coop in the heart of Brooklyn! When I first got a text about a lost gold wedding band in a backyard chicken coop, I thought someone was playing a prank. But as it turns out, this was no joke. The gentleman had been tending to his chickens when his ring slipped off, disappearing into the dirt, hay and feathers.

Armed with my trusty detector and a lot of determination, I set out to find that ring.

It was discouraging, all the metal in the chicken coop walls and various sections was making my equipment less than optimal..

Navigating around curious chickens, it was definitely one of the more unusual searches I’ve been on! After carefully scanning the coop, first, I found a wrench that probably hasn’t seen sunlight for 50 years, then at the entrance of the chicken coop, technically outside of the chicken, I used my pin pointer and found the ring!

I heard that unmistakable tone—and there it was, buried in the ground, shining gold.

The look of relief on the gentleman’s face and the feeling of shaking his hand while looking in his eyes, genuinely feeling happy for him, was priceless. Besides chickens, he keeps bees! 🐝. Along with my come-out fee and reward he gave me eggs and honey! Major win for both of us!

It’s not every day you find yourself metal detecting for gold in a chicken coop, but it’s moments like these that make what I do so rewarding. Whether in sand, snow, or—apparently—chicken coops, a lost treasure can always be found!
