How to find property markers and pins with a metal detector, Casselberry Florida!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Michelle contacted me about needing some help locating one of her property pins along the lake behind her house. Apparently her neighbor had removed the wooden stake marking the property line because he thought it was not in the correct location. Michelle had a fairly good idea of where it was supposed to be and it only took me a few minutes to get that strong signal I was looking for. I cut a nice size plug to expose the steel rebar, stuck a couple of bright pink flags in the ground next to the rebar, pounded 3 stakes in the ground around the marker and then wrapped some white surveyors ribbon around the stakes to make it really visible!

Lost diamond stud ear ring, Orlando Florida…found by metal detectorist!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:


David’s wife was dropping their young daughter off at school and as she bent down to give her a kiss her diamond stud ear ring got tangled up in her daughter’s hair! It dropped somewhere either into the grass or onto her daughter’s backpack or on the sidewalk. After a frantic search someone suggested she call one of The Ring Finders! I met David and conducted an extensive search but my metal detector only picked up lots of small pieces of aluminum and a ton of small trash items. My last look over the sidewalk revealed where her lost diamond stud ear ring was hiding…and it was in one of the joints of the sidewalk and it was almost impossible to see! But thankfully it was found and returned to a very grateful young couple. I breathed a silent prayer of thanksgiving as I drove home!

Eileen called me and asked if I could help her find a lost Mercedes Benz vehicle fob/key and she was quite sure it was somewhere in one of two cars. Apparently she had unloaded some things from one car to another and in the process she misplaced the only fob/key that she had for her older Mercedes. She looked numerous times through the car, her purse, the trunk, under the seats and everywhere she could possibly imagine…but she could not find her lost key. When she called me I could hear the stress and discouragement in her voice and I assured her I would come out and conduct a thorough search of both vehicles. I arrived Saturday morning and got right to work going through both cars with a fine tooth comb and my extra strong flashlight. After 40 minutes…NOTHING! Eileen thought that maybe someone walked by while she was moving things back and forth and possibly picked her key up off of the ground. Or maybe a crow picked it up and flew off with it! As a final effort was made to locate her lost key I sat in her older vehicles driver seat and reached up and moved the double sun visors that covered the front window and I noticed something moved…right where the two visors overlap…and sure enough there was her fob…nestled down between the two visors. The fob/key was hidden in the perfect hiding place…not visible from either side! Eileen was over joyed and how I thank God for helping me to be able to find her lost key!

Zack could not find his wedding ring and tried looking with a rented metal detector and still come up empty handed. He was 99% sure he lost it in his yard somewhere while doing yard work earlier that day. He had planted some small ornamental bushes and laid down new mulch and even had about 10 medium bags of left over dirt that he wanted to dispose of later but the thought of his ring being out in his yard somewhere made him quite anxious. Later that evening Zack went online and found theringfinders.com and gave me a call. I met him the next day and decided to start my search exactly where he started working the day before. His yard and newly planted bushes were neat and tidy and as I moved on to the 2nd area I noticed he had laid out the bags of extra dirt on the brick driveway so I decided to scan them. Each bag was tied up and on the last bag I got a faint signal. I flipped the bag over and immediately got a solid gold like signal and it was only a matter of sticking my pin pointer into the dirt and the picture shows what was hidden inside. Zack was thrilled and could not believe what just happened.

Lost ring in yard, Geneva Florida, Found with a metal detector by ring finder, Mike McInroe.

Mr John had recently lost some weight and his platinum wedding ring was needing some resizing…so off to the jeweler they went. When they got home, Mr John thought he had enough time to mow one half of the front yard so he uncovered his riding mower and started cutting. There are a couple of areas where the tree branches hang down really close to the ground and as he mowed he had to push the branches aside. An hour later, while getting a drink, he noticed his wedding ring was not on his finger and the most obvious thing he could think of was that it must have come off while he was mowing! For two days he and his wife would walk through the yard with flashlights at night or during high noon when the sun was directly overhead with hopes of spotting his lost ring. For 46 years John and his wife have been married and the thought of never seeing his ring again was very troubling. Thinking there had to be some kind of service that involved a metal detector, he went online and found theringfinders.com and one of my stories. I agreed to come out and look at John’s yard and realized right away that this would be no easy task…because John’s yard was VERY LARGE! As I listened to John explain his routine when mowing I saw the low hanging branches and figured I would check those areas first off and BINGO! On the 2nd area I heard the sweet sound of gold and saw the glint of shiny Platinum! As John bent down to retrieve his once lost and now found wedding ring…I noticed a few tears welling up in his eyes and I could not help but feel a twinge of the same emotions in my own heart! John was so happy and the relief was obvious!

Class ring lost in the grass, Sherman, Illinois…found and returned to owner!

Have you ever been asked to hold something for safe keeping and end up loosing that item? It happens allot and this is what happened with Brian and his daughter. Upon arriving at a local outdoor fall festival event Brian’s daughter asked him to pocket her two rings while she enjoyed all the rides and food and at the end of the day, while they were walking to the car she asked her dad for her rings and he only pulled one ring out of his pocket! It was like her class ring had simply disappeared. They back tracked where they had spent time and were not able to find her ring. Brian’s daughter was quite upset and Brian left word with the owners about the lost ring. I spent some time searching for the ring during the following day and it was found in the large grassy parking lot right where Brian had parked his car the day before. Brian and his daughter were very, very happy to get the ring back!

How to find lost rings in the grass with a metal detector, Ocala Florida!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



This search and recovery came to me as a result of a family dispute. Sometimes rings, phones, key fobs and other items are deliberately thrown and most often we are called to come out and try to help locate these thrown items for either the one who threw them or for someone else who has a vested interest…say like a husband or wife, or a boyfriend or…I think you get the idea!

Andi called me and explained that she needed help finding her engagement and wedding rings somewhere in their yard. Apparently she had gone out and rented a metal detector and tried using it for an hour or two and ended up digging a bunch of holes plus her husband had spent 3 hours searching the yard as well and …Nothing! When I arrived the next day I got my Deus 2 metal detector and started doing my usual overlapping grid search of the area where Andi said she threw her rings. There were holes here and there and pull tabs and bits of aluminum scattered every where. Experience has taught me that most often items originally are thrown harder, further and with more intensity than one might think. And this proved true in Andi’s situation. At least 45 feet out I got a good repeatable signal reading « 49 » and then about two feet away another similar signal! I called Andi out and as I showed her what I found she just buried her face in her hands and quietly wept. The relief and consolation and comfort overwhelmed her heart and it was a thrill to see.

Lost wedding ring in Hart Springs, Bell, Florida found by Florida ring finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Alexis and her husband were enjoying a fun day at Hart Springs and after jumping off of the high platform two times he realized that he still had his wedding ring on and it was feeling just a bit loose. Alexis was standing behind the railing by the edge of the jumping platform when he removed his wedding ring and handed it to Alexis for safe keeping and she slid it onto her index finger thinking it would be fine. But her husband thought it needed to be put on her middle finger so as she attempted to remove his ring from her index finger it all of a sudden popped off and dropped into the water below sinking straight way to the bottom of the spring. Alexis and her husband were stunned and after a few minutes they attempted to dive down and retrieve their now « lost ring »! It was close to 14 feet deep and their attempts were futile which made the situation even more intense…especially since they were just married not even two months ago! Alexis went online and found theringfinders.com and in the « Directory » noticed that there was no one else closer to Hart Springs that could help her and figured that maybe I could…being as I was scuba certified and in the Orlando area…145 miles away!! But when Alexis told me what happened and described how they saw exactly where the ring hit the water…I knew that there was a very, very high likelihood of being able to recover it and so we made plans to meet the next day. My dear wife accompanied me early the next morning and two and a half hours later and in a slight drizzle we met Alexis and she showed us the platform and it didn’t take me long to set up my scuba tank, 50 foot hose and diving gear and down into the water I went. I carefully grid searched a 10X20 foot area and found two rings and other items and thankfully one of the rings was Alexis’s husbands ring and to say she was relieved and thrilled…was a bit of an under statement! Come to find out Alexis’s husbands birthday was on this very day and she wanted to be able to surprise him with his « lost » ring and she told me later that it was amazing! How I thank God for allowing me to be used to be a help and a blessing to this dear young couple!

Lost diamond ring in the grass, Tavares Florida, found by Florida ring finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



This ring search began after Apple was playing with her little one on a grassy area behind the house and as she came inside she realized her diamond ring was not on her finger. The ring was loose on her finger and she had every intention to get a silicone ring adjuster to help make it a tighter fit on her finger…because she knew that sooner or later it would come off and she could loose it for ever! Thankfully she found my number and later that afternoon I met Apple and she explained where sh had played in the yard and where her ring would most likely be. I set out my plastic markers and began an over lapping grid search. Ten minutes later I decided to expand my search and after another 10 minutes I spotted her lost ring just laying on the sparsely covered grass area another 20 feet out past where she thought it would be. Apple was very relieved to have her lost ring back and hopefully she will purchase on of those simple silicone ring adjustors to help keep her precious ring secure and safely on her finger.

Lost diamond engagement ring in car, Sanford Florida, found by Florida Ring Finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Sanford Florida resident Nadja texted me about a lost diamond engagement ring lost in a car and asked if I could help her. Here is her story. « Hi Mike! I found your number on theringfinders.com website and wanted to inquire about your services. I lost my engagement ring inside my car. I think it must have slipped down between the seats. We tried taking the seats out but came up with nothing. I see you mostly do grass, sand and water searches but am wondering if you are able to look in a car? This happened a few years ago in our 2011 VW Jetta. I was sitting in the back seat and I had the cup holder partition down and I was fiddling with my ring and it popped off of my finger and all I remember was it sounded like it hit something plastic and then it just disappeared! We pulled off the road to look for it but we could not find it. It wasn’t on the seat nor on the floor anywhere! We have searched several times over the years but have had no success. We are planning to donate the car this Friday since we do not use it anymore and I just wanted to give it one more try before we donate it. Just so I know I have tried all our options. I’ve always felt like it is somewhere in a crevice! »

I arrived the following day with my bag of supplies and listened to Nadja explain just what happened. I thought maybe her ring went down one of the air vents under the front seat or possibly slipped down along the front seat cracks in the carpet. Then a closer look at the cup holder arm that comes out of the back seat revealed an opening to the trunk. So I proceeded to remove everything in the trunk and searched every possible place where a small ring could hide and as I looked closer at the cupholder arm there was a small space where it hinges and I got out my handy dandy endoscope and stuck the camera with light attachment end down into the crack and immediately saw a quarter and a nickel. I had high hopes that if there were coins and gum wrappers tucked into that small space…surely a ring could be hiding there as well. I spent a good 15 minutes pushing and probing my endoscope into the corners and at every angle possible and I soon caught a glimpse of a diamond and setting and then Nadja’s lost ring came into view. Nadja’s husband came out to check on my progress and I told him that I can see the ring but that we will have to do some dismantling and he was ready to tear the back seat all apart! I removed a few screws and the cupholder came free and then it was only a matter of reaching down and picking up Nadja’s long lost ring! The young couple was overwhelmed and their joy and happiness was evident by the smiles on their faces. What a thrill it is to be able to help people in need of theringfinders special services. Have you or someone you know lost a jewelry item in a car, in the water, in the sand or grass… recently or a long time ago? Chances are it can still be found! Give me a call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk.
Mike McInroe…happy to help you in your time of need
