this wasn’t found today but rather on December 5th. I was beach hunting here in Mississippi when I found a huge class ring. This ring is so big a quarter would fit inside of it. It had the man’s first and last name on the outside of it along with the name of the school. I was able to track him down, he now lives in canton Ohio. Luckily I was able to find a phone number for him, so I called and left a message.
he called me back later and confirmed he had indeed lost his class ring about five years ago in Biloxi,ms. He gave me the name of the school so I could confirm it was his. I shipped it back to him the next day and didn’t hear from him till last night.

I don’t know how to attach his text message to this, so I will type it in as he wrote it

thank you again fo locating my class ring. I lost it five years ago at the beach in Biloxi. Sitting in the water and it slipped off my finger.NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS111 Did I think I would ever see this again. Thank you again for doing what you do and loving it.Glad you were able to locate me and return it.

being able to get him back his ring has its own rewards.

Nice find and great work tracking him down. Many people think their ring is gone forever when they loose it in the water, but we do find them and return them. Your efforts definitely deserve an honorable mention. Please count my vote.

Stay safe, good luck, keep swingin and have a great holiday.

Congratulations and good return đź‘Ť
I’ve returned two class rings found in the same area in Jamaica.
The first return , the owner was amazed and thrilled to get his ring back .
The second ring I never heard back and got no acknowledgment of the return after they sent me the address!
I’ve also found rings in the water for people that had just lost them ,
