  • It was the right decision to go with Seth and get a professional and honest diver (2026)

    Item

    It was the right decision to go with Seth and get a professional and honest diver like him involved! After having lost the ring for a month, there was little hope of ever retrieving it… but with Seth’s perseverance and experience he proved he was the best man for the job! We were so lucky to find a kind, personable and understanding young man as Seth!

  • We are so grateful! (2026)

    Item

    We are so grateful! The water conditions were terrible with thick weeds and muck. Part of me felt bad even asking for help because I assumed the rings were gone forever. I could not have been more surprised with the diver found it so quickly!! Gregg was kind and communicative and has managed to turn around a horrible mistake into a fun story we will tell the rest of our lives. I am thrilled to be reunited with my rings. Thank you Gregg and team and ring finder’s community for offering your time and talents to helping people find their lost sentimental treasures.

  • Rick saved the day! He is the best “finder” (2026)

    Rick saved the day! He is the best “finder” weve ever seen! Very responsive and friendly, we loved all his stories about his experiences and found treasures:)

  • I feel so lucky to have gotten in touch with him. Thank you so much Trevor!!! (2026)

    Item

    Trevor is truly a lifesaver! I lost my mother’s pink sapphire ring immediately after jumping off the dock at my friend’s place in the Keys. Between the incredibly murky water, endless reeds, and surprising depth, there was no way any of us would be able to retrieve it. Locals in the area also gave me little hope that it would be recovered, saying the Keys is a tough place even for divers. We were so fortunate that Trevor was able to come by the next day, with prompt communication and arriving ahead of schedule. It took him just over an hour to locate it, ripping up the reeds and using the smallest of his detectors to locate my ring. This clearly was a difficult job and I feel so lucky to have gotten in touch with him. Thank you so much Trevor!!!

  • hire Brian to help. He's a true godsend. (2026)

    Item

    "I very highly recommend Brian and Metal Detecting Adventures! I lost a very special and irreplaceable family heirloom in a large grassy field. Even before Brian came to look for the piece, he gave me expert advice on how to engage my community to help look for it and how to retrace my steps to find it. Upon his arrival (4 days after the loss), Brian was kind and fun and professional and INVESTED in finding the heirloom. I felt there was maybe a 1% chance he would find it, but he was super confident and positive minded. He was right and I was wrong! He found it! I was overjoyed and shocked! But, what I also loved about Brian was that he was equally as happy as I was. I mean the guy was ecstatic! His pricing and policies are fair and clear. Even if it's been years since you lost something, hire Brian to help. He's a true godsend."
