Lost Gold Ring Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders -Emerald Isle,NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

 

Jill was spending the day with her daughter at Emerald Isle’s Western Regional Beach Access.  Before leaving their beach location near the lifeguard stand, she noticed this special ring had gone missing.  It wasn’t until the next day, after talking the the police department, that she was informed there are services in the area who specialize with finding lost items.  Jill called me and I informed her that I would be there as soon as possible.  It was my concern, another detectorist may have already found the gold ring.  Upon arrival the search area was surprisingly empty of visitors and I started my search of the 15 x 15 yard area.  Jill even placed an X in the sand where she suspected the ring may lay buried from the day before…  On my 3rd pass, I received a strong signal on my Minelab CTX-3030.  One scoop and the ring was visible.  The location was less than 8″ from the center of Jill’s X mark.  Jill declined my offer to include her into The Ring Finder’s Book of Smiles

Ryan placed his wedding band in a beach bag for safekeeping while on the beach in Avalon, NJ. When he went to look for it, he found a hole in the bag instead. He reached out to me the day after it was lost and I met him in the area to start the search. After a quick grid search of the sand with the metal detector, it was found!

Contact Crystal Coast Ring Finders and let Steve Ray help save the day!!!

Marshall informed me his ring was loose and before going out for a swim, placed it under a sun shade the family placed on North Topsail Beach.   At some point, the ring was dropped into the soft sand beneath the canopy.  Marshall contacted Crystal Coast Ring Finders the next morning.  He knew it was in a very small area and after digging up a broken zipper, his shiny ring was found a few inches away.  He was shocked his wife wasn’t extremely upset when he notified her of the lost ring and now, things are back where they belong.

Gold Ring Lost Before Deployment Found And Returned

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Michael and his wife were spending quality time together at Onslow beach, which is within Camp Lejeune military base.  Just hours before he was to leave for a European assignment, he lost his blessed gold wedding band while on that beach.  His wife, Elizabeth, searched online to find help recovering the ring.  I informed her that the beach was illegal for metal detecting and sent her the order saying such…  That didn’t stop her from going through the chain of command and getting the necessary permission to recover ONLY her husband’s ring.  We met early in the morning with a law enforcement officer onsite to begin the search for the ring that been lost 17 days.  Elizabeth’s hard prayers when her husband’s ring was found within seconds.  It was the 2nd target dug up.  The officer onsite was amazed and thought we’d be out there much longer.

Lost Water Shut Off Valve Found in Southfield Michigan

Contact:

All was WELL and Good…….

…..until Dave could not locate the outside shut off valve to the well water supply. Although the subdivision went on city water, he still wanted the well supply for watering the garden, plants, ect. and needed to shut the supply off to change the piping around. Turning on my Tesoro Sidewinder metal detector in all metal mode I started to search for the valve. An increase in the threshold sound was convincing enough to dig. Pushing the shovel into the ground and removing a few scoops revealed the cap that sealed the metal tube to the valve deep below the ground. Using a long T bar, we turned the valve until it was shut. Instead of saying “O Well” and walking away, he was thrilled that he called me to help him. All’s WELL that ends well we said, as Dave feels this project is now just water under the bridge!

Apple iPhone10 found at Smuggler’s Beach Cape Cod, MA and returned.

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

July 7, 2022
The 4th of July passed without anyone calling for help in finding a lost item. Tuesday was a day for a walk in the ocean keeping up with exercise and keeping the old body moving. It was after three coins in the first hour before I heard a big target. My first scoop missed it, the second was taken with a bit more care not to mar the object which turned out to be an Apple iPhone 10. I continued on detecting with Leighton who was finding just a very few finds also.

Back at the car, the iPhone powered up but was locked and had almost no charge. We turned it off and went on to detect in a few freshwater ponds. At home I put the iPhone on the charger and after about a half an hour of charging I tried to power it up again. This time I saw a message on the screen that the phone had been reported as LOST. The best was the last sentence “Please call 508-xxx-xxxx”, which I did. Luckily the group had only started their way off Cape Cod heading home. They had been in traffic for about an hour, turned around and in less than a half hour they arrived at my home to retrieve the phone. A few quick pictures, a grateful hug and they were off on the trip back home again.

Justin, the owner of the phone that had been bought with his mother’s help had all of Justin’s photos and personal information which he was more than thrilled to have back. He had been on the beach, but not in the water and believes the phone fell out of his pocket. The tides over the 5 days it was in the salt water must have pulled the phone into about 3 feet of water where I found it. Had Justin’s friend, Colby, not put up the notice on the phone there would have been no way for me to unlock and retrieve any information that might have been used to return the phone. We all agreed that everyone should have this type of information on the startup screen or on an I.C.E. (In Case of Emergency) screen, just in case…

Lost – Heirloom Silver Watch, Outer Banks, OBX, NC – FOUND!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

I got call from Sean early in the day.  He said someone had lost a watch on the beach.  I asked the usual questions about its proximity to the water, and he said that it was in dry sand.  I told him that I would be there shortly.

When I arrived, Sean took me to a dune walkover.  There was a sitting area that was covered with sand.  He said the watch was lost somewhere between the sitting area and the cabana on the beach.

I fired up the D2 and did a complete sweep on the sitting area and the path to and inside the cabana.  Nothing but a few bottle caps.  Just then he remembered that the covering had been further to the south the previous day.  Again, nothing.  I had spent quite a bit of time.  If it were there, I should have found it.

I got more detailed information about the watch.  It was over 50 years old, silver and had been given to his wife’s mom by her mom who was born in 1918.  When I heard that, I told Sean, “We have to find it.”

I found out that Sean had not actually been with Grandma when she lost the watch so I asked if someone who was there could come down to the beach.  Donna, Sean’s mom came down and the puzzle started to fill in more.  They had walked down to the beach!

I immediately went to the water’s edge as I normally do when there is a chance that the item is in the water.  As I worked my way up, it wasn’t long until I got a strong 99 hit.  It was the watch.

When I gave the watch to Donna, she said, “I had been praying the entire time that you would find it.”  I told her that I pray every time before I search.

The family was thrilled!

Lost a Ring?

Don’t Wait to Call!

I received a text from Caroline about her lost ring in Sea Isle City, NJ. It is very sentimental because it’s the first piece of jewelry her boyfriend gave her. She put that ring and another one in her cup holder but forgot to tell her boyfriend they were in there, so both dropped in the sand when he closed the beach chair. I met her on the beach and started to search.
After a few scans with the metal detector, the rings were found!

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in the Sand at Hermosa Beach…Found and Joyfully Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Steve’s Emergency Metal Detecting Service For You if you lost a ring or something precious to you. Please don’t wait until tomorrow, time will work against you, please CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, CALL NOW! 310-953-5268

I received an afternoon text from Brock as he was out on the beach on the 4th of July. He was out enjoying the day when he noticed his wedding ring was gone. He said he and his friends searched for it, but were unable to find it. He had not left the area, and I told him that if he stayed, and secured the area, I would come and do a search for him; he agreed.

I knew that parking was going to be a problem on this day, one of the busiest beach days of the year, so I brought along my trusty Brompton folding bicycle in case I had to park far away. Well lucky for me that I brought the bike because I had to park about 2 miles away, but no problem. I put the equipment I needed into a bag, and slung it over my shoulder as I rode to the search area. When I got to the site and met with Brock, I folded the bike, putting it into a bag that I could shoulder and we walked out over the sand to do the search. When we got there he showed me where he thought the ring went. I got my equipment ready, and proceeded to search. Two passes later, and his ring was in my scoop. He was so happy explaining that he had only been married one month wherein I assured him that the finding of the ring will insure him of at least another month of marriage🙂 We talked a bit after, then I got on my bike and rode back to my vehicle. What a great day!

Brock sent the following testimonial:

Hi Steve,
Thanks again for the major save yesterday!
Here’s a short review about my experience:
“It was the Fourth of July, and as I sat back in beach chair I came to the realization that my 1 month old wedding ring was gone. I spent the next hour searching the sand in the immediate area to no avail. A google search for metal detecting services led me to Steve, who would turn out to be my savior.
A quick text and Steve was on his way to keep me out of the doghouse. Steve was polite, prompt, and found my ring in less than five minutes (realistically probably less than two minutes). I was ecstatic. I could not have asked for a better solution. Steve and I ruminated on lost jewelry and surfing, and then went our separate ways. I would highly recommend him to anyone that finds themselves in dire straits, on your hands and knees, desperately searching for your lost jewelry.”
Best,
Brock
