Lost – Men’s Gold Wedding Ring – DeLand Florida – FOUND!!

  • from Ponce Inlet (Florida, United States)
Contact:

On Tuesday, April 16th I got text from Samantha.  She said that her husband Ian, had lost his men’s gold wedding band a few months ago.  She continued, that he had been working in the yard and it flew off his finger while he was weeding.

Although it took a little over a week before we had a time when we all could meet, I knew it would still be there.  Rings you lose in your back yard stay there, as a rule.

I arrived and Ian and Samantha led me to the area where the ring had been lost.  I fired up the Minelab Manticore and began a cursive sweep of the area.  I got a great hit right where they said the ring had been lost.  I ignored that hit and covered the rest of the area just to see if there were others.  There were not.

I fired up my pinpointer and put it on the spot the detector had indicated.  As I pushed the pinpointer under a clump of grass, I saw the gold ring reveal itself.  My prayer was answered.    I held the ring up and Ian said, “You found it!”

Happy family!  The ring that had been lost for a few months was back on the hand of the owner!

Lost – Men’s Gold Wedding Ring, Daytona Beach Shores, Florida – FOUND!!!

  • from Ponce Inlet (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Wednesday evening, I got a call from a fellow ringfinder.  He asked if I could handle a call for him.  I said, of course!  I called Charles and asked him where and when he lost it and set a time for us to meet before low tide the next day.  I brought my friend Brian who is just getting into metal detecting.

Charles took us down to the beach and showed us the section of beach where he had lost the ring, but the tide was still high, and the wave action was much greater than we expected.  Nevertheless, Brian and I started grid searching the area.  I started about waist-high in the water.  Brian started from the high tide line.

I had an obligation that I had to attend to, so I left the search area for a while.  About an hour after that Brian had exhausted the search area.  He decided to go back over some of the high tide out of the water area.  His first target was iron.  Next a solid hit on his Deus II.  It was the ring.  Great work Brian!

There was dancing on the beach as the happy couple recovered their precious ring.

Lost Ring Ormond Beach FL – Ladies custom made, Tacori Diamond Wedding Set – FOUND!!!

  • from Ponce Inlet (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Late Friday evening, I got a text from Michelle.  She explained that she was visiting the Daytona area and was enjoying the beach when she put a wedding set and a third ring in a side pocket of beach chair.  When she went to pack up, they forgot the rings.  They went back to the beach to search for the rings but could not find them.

Since it was almost 10pm, I asked Michelle if I should come down now.  Instead, we decided to meet first thing on Saturday.

I met Michelle and Tyson, her husband of 17 years, at the Ormond beach access.  We covered about a quarter mile to the scene of the loss in the dark about an hour before sunrise.

They showed me the area that their chair had been set up and the path they used leaving the beach.  I fired up the XP Deus machine and got a great hit on the slope going down to the water.  It was the wedding band!

We knew we were in the right place and continued to search.  Tyson had a detector and searched also.  Not long after the first hit Tyson had one that he wanted me to check out.  This time it was above the slope on the dune.  It was the engagement ring… A handcrafted, Tacori ring with a beautiful princess diamond, flanked by triangular cut blue sapphires.  Michelle was thrilled!

The third ring was lost to the waves or traveled further, but they had the most important of the three rings back.  Happy couple!!
