Yvette is a teacher in Darnstown, Maryland. During recess, one of her students ended up breaking Yvette’s gold chain off of her neck. As a result, a very special 14 karat white gold and multiple diamond cross (which her husband had given her 24 years earlier) went missing somewhere on the playground. The chain and three charms were eventually recovered but when Yvette and her staff searched for the missing pendant, all of their efforts led to no avail.

Yvette was heartbroken over the loss of her special crucifix. She immediately called her husband Richard for help and he heroically drove to the school with a metal detector hoping to find the lost piece of jewelry. After an hour of searching, Yvette’s husband threw in the towel and it was time to look for another solution.

I received a phone call from Yvette shortly after Richard had finished using the metal detector that he acquired to conduct their own search. They looked online and found my company, METAL DETECTING ADVENTURES INC which highlighted my successes in an elite directory of metal detectorists called THE RING FINDERS. I was excited to be asked to come to the search site to see if I could solve the mystery of the missing pendant!

When I arrived at the elementary school, I was greeted by Yvette, Richard and 20 excited children who were part of an after-school program. They were beyond intrigued to see if this item recovery specialist who was hired to save the day might possibly find Yvette’s beloved diamond cross.

I gathered up the necessary metal detecting equipment in my vehicle and then headed over to the search site with my client. The Bar-T children excitedly waited outside of the fenced in area of the tot lot in order to let the professional do his miracle work. And boy did a miracle happen!

As soon as I entered into the playground area, I asked my client where the three charms were recovered after the necklace was torn off of her neck Yvette pointed to the concrete sidewalk on the other side of the fenced-in area where all of the restless children were watching and waiting. I put my head over the fence and looked straight down where the children were hanging out. Literally within a second’s time, my eyes immediately locked in on Yvette’s missing 14 carat white gold and diamond cross! I couldn’t believe it! In one second I recovered my client’s beloved crucifix! I quickly and excitedly pointed directly at the discovered sentimental keepsake and yelled, « There it is! » All of the children including my clients looked straight down at where I was pointing and yet no one at first saw what I had identified! And then a moment later there was an eruption of cheers and excitement as I made my way through the playground gate in order to retrieve the little gold treasure that had been patiently waiting to be recovered! There it was… Yvette’s very special jewel! The search was over before it had officially begun!

Yvette’s beautiful diamond crucifix had been lying right there in the middle of the concrete that entire time since it was lost hours earlier that day! Countless adults and children had walked right over it and no one had any idea that the white gold and multiple diamond pendant had been resting there all along!

I have to admit that in all of the years of recovering hundreds of pieces of jewelry and other highly valued items for people, I have never found an item this quick before! What a fun « eyeball » recovery search indeed! The kids went crazy! I hugged my clients with jubilation and joy while many of the children extended their hands for countless fist pumps and high fives!

I will never forget this particular search story because this was a very rare situation. While I returned the metal detecting equipment to my vehicle, Yvette and Richard shared the amazing moment with teachers who opened up their windows on the second floor of the school just to find out what the commotion was all about! They too couldn’t believe where I located the cross!

As a metal detectorist and item recovery specialist, these are the kind of stories that continue to bring me great joy when sharing them with countless others who need the kind of hope and relief that I was able to successfully extend to my very happy clients, Yvette and Richard!
