You're famous!

Saw the newscast this morning before heading off to work. As a fellow Long Islander I applaud you sir.

Job very well done! You are an asset to the community, fellow detectorists and humanity as a whole.

Keep it up!

Awesome find and great job on the return!

This is a banner find in my book... not so much because of its value, but because it was happily returned to the lady who lost it. I saw this story in the mainstream media.

Well Done!

One of the best finds and stories I have seen. I can't imagine her heart break when lost. So glad a real stand up individual found the rings. Huge congrats to you!!! I'm sure her smile and thankfulness was a huge reward to you.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.
This story has now gone international.

Don't forget, sometimes karma is right in front of you , paying you back and comes in the form of a nice diamond in your scoop. It's good to give back when you can but sometimes karma is giving you back already and you have to take it. Balance! Balance!

To refuse or look past a gift from Karma and look for the true reward of kindness or a kind act. That is the way to treat your "Karmic" gifts, your Karma will double back again and again. Giving you greater and greater Karma, maybe even giving you the understanding of life. The biggest gift Karma can give you. Remember you should not be rewarded for something you should do anyway...

Hey Mike,

Amazing Ring, great return.. Thanks for putting us all in a positive light. We need more of this kind of press. Its honest treasure hunters like you that will keep us all afloat. Wow, $13 Grand is a lot to walk away from. Good for you your a legend !!

Keep @ it and HH !!

Great recovery and return, may some great karma come your way, also congrats on the banner.

 

[Metal Magnet]

you know, with all the stories we read of people getting our hobby banned because people don't fill their holes, or digging without permission, or on protected sites; it's just so good to hear a story like this. i wish there was a banner above the banner. like a "bettering the world" banner. anyway, awesome job!
