Marco called me about the wedding ring he lost while cleaning up out back. We talked and it became pretty evident that the ring was there. I just needed to pass my metal detector coil above the ring. It wasn’t a question of « If » but instead a question of « How

Bogue Inlet Pier – Emerald Isle, NC
Lauren visited Bogue Inlet Pier on September 7th with her son as was wading in the surf when a larger wave knocked her over. She told me her hands went into the sand and she felt her chocolate diamond ring slide off of her finger. She was very upset but noticed a man out with his detector and went to him for help. Bogue Inlet Pier (BIP) gets a lot of beach traffic and also many detectorist come there to search for « treasures ». After being unable to find her ring, the gentleman suggested she contact Crystal Coast Ring Finders. I made plans to hunt the very next low tide early in the morning and only a few hours after the loss of the ring. The surf was still very strong and I too was unsuccessful. Lauren was very upset when I talked with her and I felt terrible I could not make the recovery that morning. I live near BIP and each time I went there to hunt the beach, I made it a point to search the area of Lauren’s lost ring. Recently, we had some sand movement that allowed the replenished beach sand to move. This created a low spot near the water’s edge. To my surprise, after so many days lost and I’m sure, many other metal detectors hunting the same area, her ring was rescued on the evening of October 7th. It was about 50 yards further West on the beach. I had not met Lauren yet and messaged her to tell her I needed her to fill out my standard search contract. We agreed to meet at her father’s business. After we met and she completed the search contract without knowing I had her lost ring,.. I gave her one of my business cards. When she turned the card over, her lost ring was taped to the back of the card. She burst into tears. I was very happy that something very good happened to Lauren this year as she explained it hadn’t been going well.

JoEllen was spending time with her parents sitting on the Emerald Isle beach along the shoreline. They were sitting down by the water so they could put their feet in the waves. She had explained to me she had taken off her very special ring and placed it in her glasses case prior to going to the beach. While on the beach, she decided to put on her glasses and forgot the ring was also in the case. It wasn’t until the next morning she had realized the ring was missing and she called Crystal Coast Ring Finders. The beach sand was very soft and very little items were found during the search. Her ring was eventually found under about 12 inches of sand. This was a very challenging search but when you can successfully return an important item to the owner, it makes it worth the effort!

Bailee was spending the day with her parents along the White Oak river trying to catch shrimp using a cast net. They were throwing the net from a high wooden walkway. During one toss, Bailee’s gold college class ring slipped off of her finger into the rivers soft muddy bottom. Bailee’s father started an online search and found Crystal Coast Ring Finders. Just after the call, I was on my way. To my surprise, getting close to the ring was a challenge in itself as the bottom was very soft in places and water access was also a bit of a challenge. After pulling up various items of trash, I locked onto a strong 12 signal on the Minelab Equinox 800. The scoop was filled with the black mud but the signal was no longer on the bottom. After a few seconds of sifting out the mud and debris, Bailee’s ring was shining in the bottom of my scoop. I loved the reaction from her as her eyes lit up and she jumped with joy
David, Kayla and her mother were spending an evening on the beach fishing the shoreline. Kayla had taken off her engagement ring and placed it in a small bowl. Just after David caught a fish, Kayla headed down to the water to get a closer look. Unfortunately, the bowl, holding Kayla’s ring spilled onto the beach just as darkness was setting in. I happened to be in the area about an hour later and David approached me to ask for my help finding this wonderful ring. After a few passes and as they were packing up to leave, I was able to pull her ring from the beach. I was very happy to return this for them as Kayla’s mother told me when I began searching that David had just returned from military service in Afghanistan. I thank him and all that protect us for their service to our country!

I received a text message from my son-in-law, Donnie Constransitch, saying that he was busy at the aqua park and to call Chandler for a lost ring in the soft sand. I called Chandler and she said she lost her ring last night in the dry sand and she knew the area where it was. I told her I’d be there in 10 minutes.
When I arrived, I called Chandler from the parking lot saying I was walking out on the beach. We met on the beach and she pointed out the area. She described the ring as a yellow gold ring with 5 diamonds. I turned my Equinox 800 on, took four steps and hit a solid 14/15 on the VDI (visual display indicator). That VDI was definitely in the range of a gold ring. I took a scoop of sand, gently shook the sand out and saw the gold ring. I held the scoop out so Chandler could retrieve her ring. I could see the relief in her face and then she told me the story. The ring originally belonged to Chandler’s Great Uncle; it was passed to Chandler’s aunt and then passed to Chandler. I completely understood the sentimental value associated with this heirloom and so excited it was back where it belonged.
Chandler – Thank you for trusting me and The Ring Finders to help find your lost treasure.

Gloria called me to ask if I could find her grandmother’s bangles which were approximately 120 years old and had been passed onto her. Gloria lost them two years ago in Rundle Park while attending a party. She explained she was among the trees in the park and the landscape was full of 4 inch deep wood chips. Gloria told me that she had been to the park several times looking for her grandmother’s bangles with no luck.
I agreed to meet up with Gloria at the park and she showed me the area. Within 20 minutes I had her bangles back in her hands and after two years without them, she was very Happy.
