North Topsail Beach, NC – Wedding Band Lost In Ocean, Found And Returned


North Topsail Beach, NC By Crystal Coast Ring Finders
Steve was spending some time in the ocean during a typical hot Summer North Carolina day. He mentioned he was swimming in about chest deep waters, jumping in the waves. A large wave hit him and he felt his ring was gone!
Steve called me just after low tide that same day and I arrived the following day to search. I found another man’s white gold band, in the ocean, a few miles away about an hour before. I started my search parallel with the shoreline working my way out into the deeper water. After finding nothing but a couple of pieces of trash, I started a vertical search. After just a couple of passes, I got a good signal. I was disappointed when I dug up a pop can tab. A few steps later in the water, my machine displayed the very same target identification. This time it was Stephen’s white gold wedding band! I walked to shore and took some pictures. Steve was about to go out with family for pizza and I sent him the photo thinking they had already left. A large number of family members and Steve and his wife poured out onto the beach with surprise and joy!
