The Thrill of the Hunt: Why I Love Returning Lost Valuables
Hi everyone, I’m Reuben Marcus, and I’m excited to a member of The Ring Finders! Ever since I picked up my first metal detector as a teen, I’ve been fascinated by the idea that something lost long ago could still be found, buried and forgotten, waiting to be reunited with its owner. Now, as I close in on 60, that passion has only grown stronger.
There’s something incredibly rewarding about finding an item that someone thought was gone forever—whether it’s a wedding ring slipped off in the sand, a family heirloom lost in the snow, or a treasured piece of jewelry that holds memories beyond its material value. When I see the relief and joy on someone’s face after recovering a lost treasure, I feel like I’ve given them back a part of their story, something that connects them to their past.
I’m retired now after 40 years in IT, and this new chapter of my life has allowed me to pursue my hobby of metal detecting full-time. I’ve always believed that what’s lost can be found, and I’m here to prove that—one search at a time.
If you’ve lost something precious, don’t give up hope. Reach out, and let’s see if we can bring that treasure back where it belongs.
