Sentimental Sterling Silver Ring with Green Emerald Lost in the Ocean, Found and Returned Ocean Isle Beach NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Nancy saying she had lost a very special ring with a green emerald stone in the ocean. She said the emerald had belonged to her grandmother and had been passed down to her. She also stated that she had lost it about 30 minutes prior and she was right at the water line. I knew this was a race against the incoming tide; I got a few more details and told her I’d be there in about 45 minutes.

When I got there, I met Nancy on the beach and she showed me the area. It was maybe 10 feet across and as far out as I could take it. Unfortunately the sea breeze had kicked up and the ocean was hitting the 2nd breaker with a lot of force. I started a grid search going north and south perpendicular to the beach. After, maybe 5 lines, I called it. Between the waves and the current I was having a rough time keeping my grid lines straight and just getting knocked around. I told Nancy I’d be back around 5, thinking once the tide made its turn at 2 pm I’d have 3 hours with an outgoing tide.

I got back about the time I said and Nancy was waiting. I started my grid search and after an hour and a half and covering the suspected area, I was coming up empty. So, the next step was to extend the area north and south and start over. After another forty-five minutes to an hour, I was working my way back up the middle of the search area towards the high tide line. I got a solid 21-22 on the VDI, which is what I was looking for on a Sterling Silver item. I dug the target out of the hole, spread the sand with my foot and there Nancy’s ring sat. After I found it, I tried to figure out how I missed it the first time. Looking at my grid lines, none of them were straight and all curved to the right. There is no other explanation, other than I missed it the first go through. I took a picture and sent it and a text to Nancy saying “BOOM.” She called me a short time later, not believing it was found. I dropped it off at her house on my way home. She was extremely happy and thankful that she got both her ring and her grandmother’s emerald back.

Nancy – thank you for allowing me to help find your precious and sentimental treasure.

Jim

If you lost a ring or other type of jewelry at the beach (in the sand or water) give me a call, I have a metal detecting service and can come out and find it for you.  Call / Text Louis 305-608-1870.  Alexandre lost his ring on while on vacation from Switzerland.  He was flying out the next day to California.  When he called me I didn’t think I was going to be able to find it because the surf was as bad as I had ever seen it.  But after about an hour of being battered around in the water, we found it.  He did a great job of marking the area where he lost it.  A beautiful 18k Gold Ring.

Lost diamond rings in ocean surf waves found by metal detector at Camp Del Mar beach Camp Pendleton

San Diego Metal detector service for lost jewelry recovery Call Curtis Cox @ 760 889 2751 The Ring finders

Recently this summer of 2023 I received a call of urgent help from a lady who had 2 gold diamond rings disappear while boogie boarding at Camp Del Mar beach on Camp Pendleton marine base.

These type of calls are not what many people have worded to me; “Hopeless or a shot in the dark.” I know some mysteries of how the ocean works along this littoral cell. Especially when it’s only been a day or 2 in the ocean along this particularly flat wet beach. Gold has a density 19.3 times greater than water meaning it won’t move,,,Only sink!  I assured her there is a good chance I could find it!

So we arranged the very next morning during an early 7:00am minus Low tide then was shown an approximate area she was riding the waves 4’+ deep. She had to head back home nearby to take care of her newborn meanwhile I scanned & scanned & scanned some more for over an hour until I was nearly too far gridding from where it could of been,,,Like many times in my past,,,As soon as I think about calling quits…I end up finding it. That’s when a familiar itchy scratchy low tone signal beeped on my Minelab Equinox metal detector. After 2 Scoops the small round band came popping out!  I checked around the hole and no signals though where’s the 2nd ring??,,,I always fill my holes as usual and one important thing to do is check your holes before filling them as a detectorist’s Murphy law cause The main mothers diamond ring was just one more scoop down!  I text her pictures of the rings saying they are safe now and even delivered them for her. She was so relieved as you can see in the book of smiles:)

Lost ring in the lagoon, Ortley Beach NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Caroline contacted me about a ring that slipped between the boards on her dock, and landed on the bottom of her lagoon. She said it was about 2 years ago, and wondered if I was able to recover it. I asked her some questions, and determined that I needed to come out and confirm a few things before agreeing to do the search. We decided it was worth a try, and I would attempt ASAP. After 2 weeks we met at the house, and i suited up and got into the water. It was just workable at a depth of 5 1/2′. I searched for about 45 min and not one signal that even sounded close to a ring. She told me to give up, but I wont quit, knowing the ring had to be there someplace. I worked out past the dock about 2′ where I got a solid tone that I knew was the ring. I had to put on a weight belt once I started to dig, and that didn’t work so good either. I decided to drag the ring back under the dock where it would be much easier to work. That took another 30 min. and FINALLY the ring was in my scoop. Unfortunately Caroline had to leave, so she was reunited with the ring at a later date. I guess the prop wash over the years pushed the ring out to where it was located.

Lost Wedding Ring Found on Block Island RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

8/2/2023

While on another search at an ocean beach on Block Island, a young girl approached me to ask for my help.  She explained that her dad, Marty, had just lost his wedding ring while boogie boarding with his kids.  He rode a wave and felt the ring fall off in the water near shore.  I interrupted the other search to look for the ring.  It took thirty minutes to find it in the sand near shore.  Marty and his wife were thrilled.  They felt so blessed that I happened to be there when they needed my help. You see, this was not just any ordinary wedding ring.  It had belonged to his wife’s grandfather, George, who passed away in 2019.  The ring was gifted to Marty because he married the eldest granddaughter and was very close to George.  Marty’s ring is now with his wife for safe keeping until it can be resized!

Lost Gold Chain with Ring Recovered on Block Island RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

8/2/2023

Brandi contacted me on 8/1/2023 to ask for my help.  She was referred to me by Wayne, a friend and experienced metal detecting enthusiast.  Brandi’s husband, Iving, had lost a man’s gold chain on which hung a woman’s gold wedding ring.  These items held much sentimental value to Irving, as well as his sister Nancy, as they were gifts from their dad and mom, who had passed away.  The chain with ring came off when Irving was diving into the ocean at a beach on Block Island on 7/28/2023.  They hired someone to look for the item and even went back to Block Island to search themselves but were unsuccessful.  I knew I had to get out there as soon as possible to search for the item, so I headed out to Block Island the next day.  After searching in the water for two and a half hours, I found the chain with ring still securely attached.  I called Brandi from the beach to give her the good news…she was so excited.  Brandi and Irving, as well as his sister Nancy and her partner Manny, came to my home to retrieve the item.  They were very emotional when I returned the chain with ring.  What a touching moment when Irving put it back on his neck.  My wife and I felt an instant connection to this beautiful family.

Jim and Lisa rented a beach house on the private section of Charlestown Beach.  While enjoying the beach, Lisa removed her platinum diamond wedding band to apply sunscreen but didn’t put the ring back on her finger.  A half hour later, she realized that it was missing and had gotten buried in the beach sand.  Jim called to ask for my help with finding the ring. I searched the beach for about 20 minutes before locating her ring.  They were so excited and appreciative!

Lost Ring in Gulf Shores, AL – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Bill and Sarah reached out to me earlier in July. Bill had lost his platinum wedding band in the Gulf while vacationing in Gulf Shores. I made plans to go help but unfortunately it was a terrible lightning storm and it was just not safe to go that afternoon. They had already gone back to their home in Auburn but I wasn’t giving up. I got up the next morning to beat the storms and also so I could get it done before having to be at work. The Gulf was a mess and it was all I could do to hold a line in the rough seas. They had put out the red and purple flags overnight. Luckily, I didn’t have to go far when I heard a great tone and quickly scooped up Bill’s ring before the sun even peeked over the horizon. I sent a picture and briefly spoke to Sarah on the phone. I told her that I was coming to Montgomery in a few days for work and she was thrilled because Bill’s Dad lives there. I battled some more storms on the way up which seemed only fitting but I was able to drop it into the hands of Bill’s father and smile as he checked it out. I think Bill and Sarah were a little camera shy but they sent this picture of both of their hands with Bill’s ring where it is supposed to be. They entitled it “Reunited” which I think says it all. 😃
