*** Tony and his family went to a San Dimas, CA. park for a picnic and Easter egg hunt. After 4 or 5 hours they got ready to leave and he realized his two gold heirloom rings were missing. They had to be somewhere in the grass. The main problems were the grass was very thick and he had been playing with his kids in a large area of the park.

He took his family home and went to the Harbor Freight store buying two metal detectors. Tony then returned to the park searching till 9pm. After an unsuccessful attempt to find either of the rings, found me on TheRingFinders website. 

We met early the next morning at the park. I decided that we should start we’re he felt they spent the most time. After a short time the two rings were recovered. Tony was so ecstatic and relieved to have these two rings back. He was very discouraged that a metal detector could find a ring in the grass because the detectors had purchased were giving faulty signals constantly. 

After finding his rings I was able to give him ideas on how the metal detector works. He is going to look into getting a better detector so he can start getting into the hobby.

I got a text from Scarlett telling me that she had been out the night before at the beach, and lost her phone in the sand. After getting back to her car she realized the phone was missing, and she and her friend went immediately back to look in the darkness, but it was gone. Knowing that beach is cleaned daily by county machines, I had to ask if she had a find my phone app, which she did, and it was showing that it was still there. So we made arrangements to get there as soon as possible to ensure we were able to find it before someone else did.

We met up as soon as I got to the beach. Scarlett had sent me a screen shot of the phone on the beach, a two dimensional picture her app was showing, so I needed her to pinpoint where they had been that night. She gave boundaries to ensure I covered all the possibilities. I searched for a little over an hour covering the whole area, finding a lot of trash metal, but no phone. It was then I asked her to show me on her tablet the screen again, the phone was still showing. Then I asked if she could get a satellite image with the same information. It took a few minutes, and then she was able to get the satellite image. It was then we could see that it was at the lifeguard tower. She then went over and asked the lifeguard, and yes, he had it. Someone had found it and turned it in. Sometimes searches take unique twists, and this was one of them. She was very happy to have her phone back.

Blake contacted me about a couple of rings lost the day before at the beach, but there was only one that they were concerned about. It was a silver ring that he had personally made for his girlfriend on a trip to Bali. He had personalized it with engravings as well. They had been out the day before at the dog beach throwing dog toys for the pooches, and when they were ready to leave his girlfriend Nadia realized her rings were gone. I let them know that the difference of a day could decrease the chance of a recovery, but we decided it was worth a try, so I let them know I would leave soon to meet them for the search.

When I arrived at the beach they met me, and took me out to the area they had been, and showed me the path they had taken. It was about a football field long but fortunately a walking path wide. We walked the path finding a few dimes, pennies, bottle caps, and pull tabs. I made sure to dig everything to ensure I did not miss anything, but no rings. We got to end, and they decided we had been very thorough with no luck. We were going to walk back to where they had washed off their feet when after turning towards the parking lot I took two steps, and got a signal in my head phones of a high tone, dug, and there was a nice hammered silver band. Blake and Nadia had their backs to me when I pulled the ring out of the scoop, so I held it up and waited for them to turn around. Blake turned first and looked questioningly, and began to walk forward to see what I was trying to show him. When he finally realized what it was he came and gave me a big hug followed by one from Nadia, it was the ring they were concerned about, the one Blake had made for Nadia. I searched around for the other ring with no success. It was great to be able to be able to find such a meaningful token of their love.

Lost Gold & Diamonds Wedding & Engagement Rings at Nai’a Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began yesterday morning when I got a call from Sabrina who lives in Mililani on Oahu.  While enjoying the day with her Grandchild at Nai’a Lagoon Sabrina realized her Gold & Diamonds Wedding & Engagement rings that had been in her Beach Bag were now missing.  She checked everywhere she could think of from home to her car through the parking lot and the path to the beach.  Finding no trace of her cherished rings she felt hopeless and reached out to Tanielu of Aloha Security.  Tanielu told Sabrina that I could locate things with a metal detector.  Since I was tied up at work until late I told her I would go to Nai’a Lagoon the next morning around 7 to search.  When I arrived we spotted each other on the beach and Sabrina came over to show me the area they were at on the beach thinking this was the last possible place the rings could be.  I immediately started a grid search and thankfully I keep this beach metal free I didn’t find a target until on the third leg I get a loud #9-10 on the Nox and in one scoop there was the wedding ring.  Sabrina was up on the path talking to security and I yelled up to her got one of them.  I marked my spot with the scoop and walked up to give it to Sabrina.  I told her let me go find the other ring.  I continued on that leg and no other targets were found.  On the return leg about three feet from the previous recovery I got another #9-10 on the Nox and in one scoop up came the Engagement Ring.  Sabrina was just over my shoulder so I just handed her the second ring.  Her facial expression was that of Joy & Relief at the same time.  We had a few laughs with security and Sabrina was able to go home feeling complete again.  Aloha to Sabrina!

Lost Wedding Ring in Car Recovered Using Endoscope Camera by Member of TheRingFinders

I find lost jewelry, if you need help call as soon as possible.. Stan Ross .. 949-500-2136
… Monique called asking if I could help her find her wedding ring lost in her Toyota Tacoma truck. She told me that her wedding ring set was put on the dash of her vehicle, while applying hand lotion. She was in the driver’s seat and parked in the driveway of her residence. Both rings slid towards the windshield. The wedding ring disappeared, but she was able to recover the engagement ring. 

She believed it must have dropped into the heater / defrost vents in the dashboard. Monique works where they have mechanics that had tried to help her locate the ring. They removed some trim but were unsuccessful locating the small diamond ring. 

After discussing what had happened, I felt that my endoscope cameras may help me to locate her ring. We set up a time and day that was convenient for her for me to search her vehicle. Some of the trim that the mechanic had removed gave me access under the speaker and into defrost/ heater vents. I don’t normally remove seats or trim. There are so many little hiding places in cars.

After a hour of probing the 5mm camera head into the dash. Boom! .. the ring showed up. It was 3” or 4” down in a small hole at the left corner up against the windshield. Very difficult to access for attempting a retrieval. Finding an ring in a car is one thing, but recovering it without dismantling the dash, etc. can take forever. 

After several car searches I have many special tools for retrieving items in cars. I used a medical grasping device that is flexible. I could only use the camera to see the ring and guide the grasping device latch onto the ring. Successful recovery of Monique’s original wedding ring. She was very happy to have her ring back where it belongs.

3 Rings Lost – 3 Rings Found!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I decided to go Pompano fishing after work yesterday afternoon but like always, I threw my detecting gear in my vehicle just in case. It’s a good thing I did because there was only a few hours of daylight left and I had just set my fishing rod down when I got a phone call from George. It seems they were right down the road in Gulf Shores and had been enjoying the day with family. Laurie, George’s daughter had taken off all three of her gold and diamond wedding rings and placed them in her chair’s cup holder to put on sunscreen. It was only at the end of the day when they were loading up their vehicle that Laurie realized what she had done and saw that all three were gone. They quickly did some googling and found me and very intelligently marked the area they had been sitting as a starting point. As George explained things, I was quickly breaking down my fishing setup and I told him that I would be right there. I decided to grid out the whole area since they didn’t know exactly where they were and it wasn’t too many passes until I found all three together in one scoop already buried several inches deep in the sand. Laurie said that this was their first day of vacation. I can only imagine how losing those three beautiful, sentimental rings would have ruined the whole trip. I am so glad y’all called me and I was able to avert a tragedy and help turn this into a great story for years to come. Enjoy your Easter weekend. 😃

Scuba Diving for a Lost Ring – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I have been doing this for awhile now and I realized the other day that I was coming up on my 80th return. I was hoping that number 80 would be a special ring and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The other day I got a call from a Pennsylvania number and I answered to hear Terrie tell me that she needed some help. Her family was down vacationing in Orange Beach and when they were docking the boat in the marina, Josh, her son-in-law dropped his wedding ring in the water next to the dock. To make matters worse, the water depth where he thought it came off was about 8 or 9 feet deep. This was definitely going to take some dive gear to search for it. I agreed to come out and meet them and called my friend Charlie to see if I could use his Hookah dive rig. My gear was in for its annual service so this different setup would be a new experience as well. (Thanks Charlie)  When I got to the dock, the whole family was there to greet me and Josh showed me the general area he thought the ring had come off. He also explained that this was an heirloom ring that his father had given him. That made me even more determined as I jumped into the water. I brought along a 30lb weight belt to try and offset not having a steel tank while wearing my drysuit. I quickly realized that there was no way I was going to be able to stay on the bottom. Imagine wearing a giant life vest and trying to swim to the bottom of a pool.  It’s almost impossible. I wanted to use my drysuit because spending a lot of time searching on the bottom in murky marina water will freeze you to death but I decided the only way I was going to find this ring was to take off my drysuit, strip down to my bathing suit and bite the bullet. Now with the heavy weight belt I plunged to the bottom and oriented my gear. I had to look up occasionally to get my bearings by seeing Josh’s silhouette against the sky. I found a few different junk signals and then I heard a much stronger solid tone. I maneuvered over where I could see the bottom through my mask and waved my hand hard to clear the silt and sand. When it finally settled, there nestled amongst some oyster shells was Josh’s ring, safe and sound.  I surfaced and started handing gear up unable to talk yet with the regulator still in my mouth and the weight belt dragging me down. I handed everything up including the sonar cover for their boat that had gone over during the mishap. When I finally got the weight belt off and was able to take the regulator out I got a huge smile and handed Josh his heirloom ring back. I swam over to the boat to use the ladder to get out and the whole time the family was cheering and celebrating. It’s such a great feeling to be able to help people with this hobby. Terrie said it best when she texted me that evening that Josh was back to happy with a pep in his step and I had put their vacation back on track. I’m so glad I could help!  Terrie and Josh you have a great family. 😃

how to find a buried water spigot in Valley Wa.

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)
Contact:

Excite, hopeful ,looking toward the future Sandra stood with her husband in front of their newly purchased home. As the couple took it all in the pervious owner gave them the run down on the homestead. He reminisced about growing up there and it being like new back in the 1930’s. Sandra asked the man if there was ever a water spigot further away from the home. He squinted his eyes while looking south. Raising his arm in the air his bony finger pointed toward the middle of the yard.  « Somewhere over there », he exclaimed with a precise approximation. So with that lump of information Sandra began digging. « I felt like I was  digging to China » Sandra said as I began my search. See Sandra gave up on her search and found a guy with a metal detector…Me. I quickly made my grid search over Sandra’s dig site. Expanding the grid I noticed a wet patch of dirt. Low and behold a massive signal was near the wet dirt.  My shovel made a loud thud as I plunged it into the wet dirt. With a quick square cut into the sod Sandra’s spigot appeared. Smiling and excited Sandra’s shed idea was becoming fully realized.

Malibu Beach Ring Finder Stan Ross .. Mobile Metal Detecting Service .. Call or Text Now .. 949-500-2136

*** Abby and her friends had spent the day at a small beach in Malibu, CA. When they started to pick up their beach stuff, she realized her favorite silver ring was not on her finger. They spent over an hour searching the dry sand because she had not been in the water or any other location on the beach.

   One of Abby’s friends found my information with a google search for ideas on how to find a ring at the beach. They called me and I asked a few basic questions. The most important question was can you wait at the location till I get there?  

It was going to be dark but that is not a problem. Getting there tonight would save her another trip to the location. From what she told me, I assured her that once I got there the search should not take much time.

We met about an hour later. After seeing the 40’x50’ area I began a grid search. There wasn’t much metal trash signals, but it was black sand which can be a nuisance as can interfere with most metal detectors. 

It wasn’t looking good when I neared the end of the search area. Then a strong high conductor signal broke through the black sand. YEP! Digging up one scoop of sand and shaking the scoop we could hear the heavy silver ring clanking in the scoop. Total time of the search was about a half hour.  If I started at that end of the search area it would have been 5 minutes. 

Abby and her friends were very grateful. 

Call ASAP.. 24/7.. Timing Important and can make the difference to find your valuable keepsake. .. I an available Now and I WILL TRY ANYWHERE. … Stan   949-500-2136

Lost Earring Santa Fe, New Mexico – Found

  • from Amarillo (Texas, United States)
Contact:

A playing dog bumped into a lady visiting friends and one of her gold, diamond, and pearl earrings fell off. An exhaustive search did not find the earring. They contacted me in December 2022 and then in March 2023 when we were able to firm up a trip 4 1/2 hours away to do a search. We met at their house in Santa Fe, NM. Literally 2 minutes into the search I found her earring. The earring owner arrived moments later and was obviously ecstatic.
