Ring Lost In Beach Sand, Atlantic City NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder
Marino sent me a text wondering if I’d be able to come down to Atlantic City and help him and his wife find a very sentimental wedding ring. I told him I’d do everything I could to get there, but asked him to sit tight since Atlantic City is a pretty good drive, especially on a busy holiday weekend.
We were finally able to meet up around 8:00 that evening. I told Marino he’d have to meet me out on the roadway because parking was extremely limited. As luck would have it, I was able to grab a spot in one of the lots right by the boardwalk.
When we got out to the beach, Marino showed me the area where they had been sitting all day. He had a circle about 10 feet in diameter drawn in the sand and said, “The ring is in there somewhere—we just can’t find it.”
He explained that this wasn’t just any wedding ring. He and his wife had actually made the ring together in Canada a few years earlier, making it truly one of a kind and incredibly sentimental.
I started by making a pass around the outside of the circle, then worked my way inward with two more circular search patterns. Before long, I got the signal I was hoping for. Buried fairly deep in the sand was Marino’s wedding ring. It had likely been pushed deeper as they spent hours sifting through the sand trying to find it themselves.
The look of relief on their faces said it all. Another sentimental item was back where it belonged and another successful recovery was in the books for Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder, proudly serving all of New Jersey—and beyond.
