Yumi Contacted me about some jewelry she lost earlier that day. She had been at the beach, and to « be safe » she told me she took her 3 rings off, and put them in her pocket. The last thing she remembered was that they were jingling in the pocket, and to hear them made her feel better. She and her boyfriend left the beach for Downtown Los Angeles, and then had the heartbreaking realization that everything was missing. It was a little late when she called, but knowing that beach is cleaned by very efficient machines, and other metal detectorists, I told her that I would leave right away in order to have the best possibility of a recovery.

When I arrived it was dark, and I had a while before the police enforced the 10:00 PM curfew removing everyone from the beach. So I got to the area, and called Yumi to make sure I was in the right place, also asking a few more questions as to distance from the marker and such. I worked my way from the top of the slope making a tight grid, and surprisingly not finding much in the way of coins or trash metal. I continued my grid, line after line working away from the slope, until about 25 feet from the slope, and 50 feet from the marker I received a myriad of good signals. I put in the scoop, and got a ring. I was excited now. I moved the coil over again, dug, and another ring, I was pretty sure I had the spot. Scanned again, and this time an earring (Yumi hadn’t mentioned earrings), so I began to wonder. I scanned again, and another ring. I scanned again, and a second earring. That was it for that spot, so I immediately called Yumi and asked if she could identify her rings (I wanted to be sure these were hers). She did correctly ID them, and then I asked if that was it, and she said there were earrings. I told her I had found it all, and we arranged to meet the next day for the return. She was so happy because two of those rings had belonged to her late aunt, and were irreplaceable. Not only that, but she will be going back to her home in Chicago soon, and would have had to leave them here forever. I really enjoy what I do.

Lost diamond engagement ring, Casselberry, Florida….found with a metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

When Renee called me I could immediately tell by the tone and stress in her voice that she had lost something and needed help. I listened to her explain how she lost her heirloom engagement ring down by their dock and how she and her husband had looked and looked and in frustration finally decided to call someone for help. So after hearing her story I assured her that her ring was there and I would try my very best to find it for her.

I packed up my car with all the essentials…my ATMax metal detector, pro pointer, scoop, floating sifter, flags, extra batteries, etc and headed to Renee’s home. I am always very excited when an opportunity comes along to help someone and I try my hardest to think of anything and everything that I could possibly need to help me in searching and finding someone’s lost ring.

An hour later I pulled up to Renee’s beautiful home and was met by a lovely young lady with tear stained face who was none other than dear Renee. I followed her around to the back of her house and down to the dock area where I could see that a bunch of fresh dirt was pushed here and there and also a few of the boards from the boardwalk were taken up as well. Renee explained how she had pulled some weeds from the shallow water and thought maybe her engagement ring had come off in the water somehow. After pulling a few weeds she proceeded to move some boards from along side of the boardwalk area. One of the boards was covered in fire ants and as she picked up the board the ants began crawling all over her hands and her immediate reaction was to throw the board and shake her hands free of the ants before they could start biting her. And that flinging and shaking action made her rings go flying off of her finger. Thankfully her wedding ring landed on the boardwalk in front of her but her platinum, heirloom, engagement ring was nowhere to be found…it just disappeared! She let out a scream and frantically started to look through the grass and along side the boardwalk and in the fresh dirt. Her husband even bought a low end metal detector and searched the area but came up empty handed. In desperation Renee decided to go online and look for « Help me find my ring » and up came theringfinders.com and one of my stories. She was given hope as she read a few of the posts and thought maybe I could help find her lost ring.

So I began by scanning Renee’s platinum wedding ring with my Garrett ATMax metal detector to get an idea of the numbers and type of signal I needed to listen for. There were allot of junk targets here and there and most of the items registered too deep in the ground to be her ring. Recently lost rings will normally give a good, sharp, clean signal and will only be an inch or two deep in the grass at the most. Unless of course they get stepped on or are laying on edge somehow. I always check out any signal that registers even close to what I am looking for because many times pull tabs, nickels and pieces of aluminum can sound just like a ladies ring. 20 minutes later I got a really nice, shallow, repeatable signal in the thick grass at the edge of a large Bald Cypress tree and there was Renee’s lost engagement ring. I held it up and said, « Hey, hey, hey!! » and Renee could not get to me fast enough to claim her precious lost ring! What a relief and joy spread across Renee’s face!

It was an honor to help Renee and her husband and hopefully her ring will continue to last for many more years.
