Your video came up on my feed right now. Over 40 years ago my husband bought me a second wedding band, heavy carved gold, on the occasion of the birth of our first son. A friend came over to babysit and give me a bit of a break. I drove to the beach, sat on the sand for a while, and the ring fell off my hand. I came home and told everyone that I had lost my ring at the beach. Everyone was very sympathetic to me, but I was determined to find that ring so the next day I rented a metal detector and returned to the beach. Everyone told me I was crazy and that I would never find it, etc. etc. Well, I didn’t find it . However, a friendly man with a fancy metal detector came by to find out what I was trying to do (with the world’s crappiest rental metal detector), and within 5 minutes he found my ring, dropped it into the palm of my hand and continued his walk down the beach. I was overwhelmed with gratitude for his kindness to me. When I got home, people were shocked that I had my ring back. I still have that ring and every time I look at it, it reminds me of that story. So Thank you, again, unknown person!

Congratulations! Our son-in-law used to detect. He found a class ring with initials on it from 30 years ago. He looked up class of ** in that school. The owner wore it one day and lost it. He was amazed and so happy. In a lawn 2 inches of dirt had developed over it. I was impressed. What a wonderful service.😊

A famous treasure diver that I know said something that stuck with me. He said “Every day, metal detectorists lose more and more land to hunt” It’s primarily due to the few bad apples in the hobby. I try to promote good ethics so that maybe the politicians and land owners will think twice about banning metal detecting

Hey thank you for taking that long piece of metal out of the water, the pop tabs etc. That could have gone through someone’s foot easily especially for a kid playing in the shallows. When I vacation on Anna Maria Island the amount of people who just leave kids plastic shovels and other plastic on the sand. I walk and clean up the trash left behind. Everyone has to know how polluted our waters are and how dangerous it is to wildlife. The Gulf is so beautiful and we all need to do our part keeping it that way. Thanks for doing yours and also helping people. I saw a woman lose her 2kt diamond ring in the waves about 20 years ago. A guy had a detector and looked for hours as many of us did. No wind, water super clear but it was gone. You’re a good man and you’ve got a new sub! ❤
