Meghan and her husband Chris took the children to Whittier Woods Local Park in Bethesda, Maryland the day before Mother’s Day. One of their kids was playing baseball while the other one was running around in the grass and playing on the tot lot.

At some point, Meghan thought it would be a good idea to take her rings off while applying sunscreen to her younger child. Unfortunately, a couple of hours later, when she reached into her back pocket to retrieve her jewelry, only her diamond wedding band was in her jeans. Meghan’s 1.35 Carat diamond engagement ring with a halo of round diamonds and platinum band consisting of a combination of baguette and round shaped diamonds set on both sides of the bridge…was gone!

The couple searched frantically in the grass, areas near the baseball field and all over the playground’s wood chips. Sadly, at the end of their search time, they came up empty-handed.

Meghan and Chris acquired a metal detector and returned to the park to continue their search efforts. They even placed signs around the tot lot area hoping somebody would turn in the ring if it was discovered amongst the children and play equipment. Once again, all of their attempts to recover Meghan’s lost diamond engagement ring led to no avail.

I was thrilled that the couple contacted me sometime the following afternoon on Mother’s Day. Once I received all of the details, I agreed to meet Meghan out at Whittier Woods Local Park in the late afternoon hours the next day.

Upon arriving, my client took me on a tour as to where she and her family played and walked around. I made sure that Meghan guided me to each and every spot where she sat and or interacted with her younger child while the other one was playing baseball.

I immediately took out my metal detecting gear and began the search. Because there were some little ones playing on the tot lot at the time that I was beginning the hunt for the lost ring, I decided to lay down grid lanes and metal detect all of the grassy areas where the family hung out.

Another reason why I started in the grass was because the wood chips that covered the playground had barely any depth. I observed and concluded that it would have been nearly impossible for a ring to hide itself under such little coverage. Most of the chips were impacted and embedded into the playground surface and not loose enough to hide anything of importance – not even something as small and spectacular looking as Meghan’s ring. My conclusion was that the piece of jewelry most likely would have already been eyeballed by someone and so it was best to start in the grass due to the problem of having to work around the children currently on the tot lot as well as considering the late time of day that I was beginning the search.

I grid searched most of the grassy areas except for three new lanes that I had finished laying down. Instead of scanning that last section, I decided to move over to the playground and retrace / detect all of the areas that my client had pointed out a couple of hours earlier. I scanned all of the equipment where Meghan played with her child, scanning over the wood chips by the swings and then went to multiple other spots that she had pointed out.

To my delight, as soon as I began metal detecting under the monkey bars I got a very promising signal! The numbers that lit up my machine’s screen came in the range of a lady’s platinum ring! As I knelt down to investigate the target, there it was… Meghan’s gorgeous diamond engagement ring! It was completely exposed above the wood chips! Because there was such a shallow level of coverage, my detector coil had lightly brushed across that isolated section actually causing the ring to become visible! I couldn’t believe it! It was almost a miracle that this ring had not been spotted in the last couple of days by a child or an adult!

I was so excited to find Meghan’s ring! Before driving to my clients’ house to unleash the great surprise, I took down all of the “Lost Ring” signs that Meghan and Chris had posted up over the weekend.

My clients were beyond floored that I had recovered their irreplaceable keepsake (which Chris had proposed to Meghan with a few years prior)! When I showed up at their door holding the ring up, they were in complete utter shock! Before I left that evening, the three of us gave thanks to the Lord for helping me assist my desperate clients with finding their special symbol of love! What an amazing time that was… a search never to be forgotten!
