Bruce Walker, 76, had not seen the gold ring which he received for graduating from high school since lending it to a friend in Dallas, Texas, in 1968.
An American man has told of his shock after a ring he lost 56 years ago was found by a metal detectorist on a beach in Scotland. However it was discovered more than 4,500 miles away by amateur treasure hunter Andrew Craft when he was searching for Viking gold on the beach in Kirkcaldy. The graduation ring is marked Nacogdoches High School, with 1966 inscribed on it along with the initials RBW.
She was a bridesmaid and I never got it back. I called the school and they told me that I should contact someone in Scotland. “I was surprised to learn that it had been found in the shoreline by a metal detectorist in Fife. One of our favourite series on Netflix is Detectorists with Mackenzie Crook. “My wife thinks that it’s hysterical that a detectorist found the ring. I can’t imagine how it got to Scotland but I’m going to try to find out more about its chain of custody.
