18K Bracelet Found In Big Rapids, MI

Received a call from Abraham, a student at Ferris State University, saying he lost his bracelet playing flag football back in October of 2025. He lost it on a wet, muddy night and spent hours searching for it with a flashlight. He assumed somebody had stepped on it and pushed it down in the mud. He went back days later with a metal detector and had no luck. The bracelet had been given to him by his mother, and he did not tell her he had lost it yet. Seeing that the lost area is about the size of a football field, I called my friend Chuck to help me. We arrived and had Abraham mark off the area to search with 4 flags and we went to work. We each started searching at the ends and worked toward the center. After about 2 hours Chuck found a 14K bracelet and after calling Abraham to take a look, he said it was not his. About 30 minutes later Chuck finds another gold bracelet!!!! This is it! This made Abraham’s day and ours too.

Found using a Garrett At Pro with a reading of 41-42 while it was in the ground about one inch deep in a pile. On top of the ground strung out it read a solid 42. The clasp had bent letting the bracelet fall off.
