The Right Place at the Right Time!

I was detecting a section of Honeymoon Island called Dog Beach nearing sunset when I received a call from my sister with information about my father who was recovering from COVID. As I was speaking to her, two women approached me and asked if I helped people find lost rings. I was wearing my Dunedin Ring Finder cap at the time so I pointed to it and said “As a matter of fact…”. This is the second time in the last six months that I was detecting on my own when I came upon someone who needed my services.

As it turns out, a family of four (last name Beebe) with their two dogs were on the beach with a professional photographer at sunset when the son dropped his great grandfather’s gold and black onyx ring in the sand. Despite the fact that they were certain the ring was in an area of about 6’x6’, the Beebe family was unable to locate the ring after a frantic search. After about a two minute search, I got a 21 signal on my Equinox 600, then pin pointed the target and pulled the ring from the sand. What a joyous reunion! The photographer was pleased because she was working to take some great shots of the family in various locations as the sun was setting and needed to get back to work quickly. I took a picture of the ring at recovery, the photographer took a picture of me with the smiling son and the ring and she promised to send the recovery photo to me after I gave her my Ring Finder card. The photographer did not have any of her business cards with her and unfortunately I didn’t get her full name.

As of the date of this post, I have not received my promised photo and I have not been able to identify the photographer. If I “recover” this photo, I will update this post for the smile picture!

Gold and Diamond Wedding Band Lost in Snow, Found and Returned in Paoli, PA

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Vijay found me via The Ring Finders Directory. He texted me looking for help in locating his lost gold and diamond wedding band. We spoke on the phone and he told me he was on an early morning walk around his neighborhood in Paoli, PA admiring the snow that was really coming down hard. He went to take a picture with his phone and while reaching for the phone he felt his ring fall off his finger straight down into the 8 or more inches of snow at his feet. At the time he didn’t have gloves on so he went home to get gloves so he could dig around and find the ring but by the time he got back…uh oh…the plow came through. I live about 15-20 minutes from Paoli so I was there within 30 minutes. First thing Vijay said to me was that next week is his 1 year wedding anniversary…and he made it clear the ring must be found! We met at the area where he dropped the ring, it was a parking lot of a school, and he showed me exactly where the ring was dropped. It was clear that the ring was definitely swept away by the plow and most likely was in one of the 3-4 foot mounds of snow near where the drop occurred. I had 2 detectors with me…One with a small coil and one with a larger coil. I started searching first with the larger coil but it was tough going and I couldn’t sweep the mound very effectively. I switched to the smaller coil and after each pass without a signal I took my shovel and dug the mound down by a foot or so. The detector depth is only a foot so I was assuming the ring was probably deeper toward bottom of the mound. After 20 minutes and on my 3rd pass I finally got a really good signal(a 22 on my Equinox 800). I called Vijay over and told him I’m liking this signal…we looked together as I dug down in snow. We were both elated to see his bright yellow gold band appear! I tell this to people all the time…being a Ringfinder is a lot « funner » when you are able to come through for the person! I’m so happy that Vijay can celebrate his 1 year anniversary next week with his beautiful band on his finger.

Christmas in January! Dione contacted me on the night before Christmas Eve day with a story of a lost wedding ring. On the day before, she was driving on the entrance road to a strip shopping center while running some errands  when another car turned in front of her almost hitting her. After a brief confrontation with the other driver, Dione headed to her bank and then drove home. After arriving home, Dione realized that her wedding ring was missing so she and her husband Timm immediately retraced her steps including searching on the shopping center entrance road which had a grassy median. Dione had become convinced that her loosely fitting ring had flown off when she was having an animated discussion with the other driver. She  told me that she had also thoroughly searched her home to no avail. Despite their best efforts, Dione and Timm had failed to find the wedding ring.
I met Timm the next morning at the shopping center search location and became somewhat discouraged to see that there was very little grass on the roadside or in the median for the ring to hide and that this was a high traffic area. I searched for over an hour anyway under Timm’s direction and we quickly determined that either the ring was not lost here or was picked up by someone. I started talking to Timm about reaching out to the Sheriff’s Department as well as searching at home again when Timm said that it was possible that the ring could have fallen off Dione’s finger in their yard. I told Timm that I could search his yard as well so we traveled 15 minutes to the home. I was unable to recover the ring after a 30 minute search.
Before I left, I told Timm and Dione to continue their search in the home but try to enjoy their Christmas because they had several grandchildren visiting and we would reconnect after the holiday.
Later that evening I received a text from Timm with great news. Granddaughter Mila knew where the ring was because she had taken it from her grandmother’s makeup room. The best Christmas gift ever!

Lost ring at South Mission Beach found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Hailey was out on the beach one evening playing a game. When she was done, she realized the ring given to her by her boyfriend at Christmas was not on her finger anymore. Soft sand and a 30 X 40 foot area and there was no way she was going to find it without help. I got the call the next morning, grabbed my gear, and headed to meet her. On a public beach, you need to get on these things right away so someone else doesn’t find it first and not know who to return it to. On arrival, I noticed that some heavy equipment had gone through the area…..not a good sign. I looked down the beach and could see that equipment at work moving sand around. A skip loader and a rake machine. Okay, that’s better than a sifter, but, still the ring could have been scooped and dumped somewhere else, or, the rake could have drug the ring out of the search area. Not all of the search area had been disturbed, so, we were hopeful. After about 15-20 minutes of gridding, I got the sound I was « looking » for, and one scoop later, I had her ring. It was just a fraction outside the raked section of sand. Whew! I’m glad I could help you Hailey, and thank you for the reward.

Ashley called me asking for help in finding her husband’s wedding ring which he had lost the day prior at a local park while playing with his young children in the sand box. They had searched for hours trying to find it with no luck. I let her know I could be there within the hour, she agreed, and I was on my way.

When I got to the park, I found Ashley. She had her mother and children with her. She showed me the sandbox, which really was not very big, so I began my search. In about 20 seconds I had a good solid signal, I dug, and there in my scoop was her husband’s ring. Ashley had just gone over to talk with her mother probably thinking she might be there for a while when I held the ring up for her to see. She came over very surprised to see the ring they had searched so diligently for. She was very happy to have it returned, and I was very happy to be a part of her joy this day!

I received a call from Beth asking for help in finding her lost ring. She had been at the beach the day before, and made sure she wisely removed it, and put it in the zippered pocket of her bag where she also put her COVID mask. As she was getting ready to leave the beach, she removed her mask to put it on, and surmised that the ring came out with it, and was lost in the sand. I asked about the area, and she said that it was on the slope down to the water as opposed to being in the dry sand. It sounded like a good possibility of a recovery if it was out of the way of the county beach cleaning machines, and if another detector did not find it first. I told her I would leave as soon as possible to meet her there.

When I arrived Beth met me and took me to where she had been the day before. I realized it was high tide, and there was some good sized surf, so I went back to my vehicle to get my waders, to insure I could get out into the surf if needed. The sand was soft in the area she showed me, so I figured the ring would not have moved much laterally, but would have sunk with the movement of the water, which was a good thing. I made one pass close to the cut, then turned to make my second pass. I was about halfway into the second pass when I received my first signal, which was solid. I dug, and in the scoop was a small gold ring. I held the ring up to Beth’s disbelief. She came right over to check it out. She tried it on, it fit. Then she checked the inside for the inscription, yes it was there; this was her ring. Beth was very happy, and I was so glad to be a help for her!

As I was returning home from my key search in Zuma Beach, and driving through the beach cities, I received a call from Mark who had also lost his keys in the sand, fortunately the same day. This was the third recovery call this day, a ring, and two key searches, and I let him know I was on the way.

When I got to the beach, I found Mark, and he showed me what had happened. He had put his keys in the pocket of his beach chair, and when he left, folded it up walking away not realizing they had fallen out. He went back to find them, but they were lost in the sand. He had marked the spot with his flip flops in order to give me a beginning of the area to search, so that is where I began, right where his flip flops were. Right over his flip flops I received a good signal, and thought the flip flops had some metal in them as some do, so I moved them and scanned again; same signal. I dug and there they were. Mark had placed his flip flops unknowingly right on top of his keys, what a surprise. What a way to top off the day; great smile!

Electronic Car Key Fob With Attached Keys Lost on Berm at Zuma Beach the Day Before…Found and Happily Returned.

I was on my way to search for Jason’s ring in Westlake when Bryan called to ask if I could help find his lost keys that he had lost at the beach the day before. We discussed the loss, and he told me that it happened on the newly constructed berm used to hold winter storm surf back. He had brought his daughter there to use her Boogie Board as a « snow » sled as many do at the beach in the winter. I let him know that as soon as I completed my ring search, I would head towards the beach, and call him to tell him I was on the way.

I contacted Bryan when I was coming out to the beach, and we arranged to meet a certain parking lot. When I got there I found him, and we started over to the berm. He showed me where he had been, and where he thought the keys might have been lost. I began my search covering the whole area he had showed me with no luck. I began to search on the end of the berm, because he believed he had been there doing some tricks, still no luck. Then I started looking on the other side of the berm, even though he said he did not spend much time there. I worked my way down, and Bryan asked me to extend the search out a little, as he remembered the area being a little larger than at first thought. I continued searching until I got to the bottom of the berm, and got a good solid signal, dug, and had a nice set of keys in my scoop. Bryan had his back to me when I found them, but his daughter had been watching from the top of the berm, and when I held the keys up she ran to her father to exclaim that they had been found. Needless to say there was happiness in the air!

Jason called after having lost his wedding ring in the backyard, and looking for it unsuccessfully. He had been playing soccer with his child, when a kick from the young one caused the ball to hit his left had with enough force to dislodge his ring, and it was gone. We arranged a time to meet, and I was off to do the search.

When I got to Jason’s house he met me, and took me out to their backyard. He showed me where he had been standing, and what had happened to cause the loss of his ring. He was facing out to defend the goal from his child, so the obvious possible area of the loss was to be center to left of the goal. I searched slowly and diligently to make sure I was not missing anything with no luck in those areas. I then searched out in front of the goal, still no luck. Now to search out of the box searching to the right of the goal. It was 15 feet to the right, and 15 feet forward of the goal that I found the ring. This is why we as Ring Finders are so successful, because we know that a lot of times the ring we are looking for is not always where it should be, and we are not afraid to look out of the box to make a recovery. We are serious about the hunt, sometimes accused of being driven to make a recovery, and why not, look at the smiles we produce!
