About a month and a half ago I received a call from Abby. It seems she had lost her wedding ring on a farm where she grows flowers for market. She believed it happened when she was stung by a bee, began removing her clothes, and running through the flower patch. She and her husband had purchased a metal detector, and had searched for the ring to no avail. We arranged to meet the next day for a search.

When I got to the farm, I let Abby know I was there. She came right by, and took me out to the area she thought the loss most likely happened. When we got there, I was looking at 4 rows of flowers at least 200 feet long, with flowers at about 5 feet tall and having very stiff shafts; I knew I was in for a tough search. I would search the furrow with my coil, and then work around the base of the flowers with my pin pointer, working down each 200 foot row. I was VERY happy that there was very little metal in the ground which would have slowed me down considerably. After a couple of hours I had completed the search as best as I could with no ring. Abby then took me over to another area she been that day, I searched 3 more rows flowers at about 150 feet, no ring. We went and looked in another area, but no ring. We then talked and she said that the flowers would be cut in a month or so, and asked if I would be willing to come out again, and If it would be easier if they were cut down; I said I would be willing and it would be easier.

So this week Chris, Abby’s husband called to let me know the flowers had been cut, and wondered if I would want to come out and go over the areas again, so we arranged the next day to do the search. Chris and Abby met me and we went and searched 3 more new rows of flowers (I had not searched the last time) she had remembered going through the day she lost her ring; no ring. I then searched one of the previous areas finding some aluminum and pot metal; no ring. We then went over to the 200 foot rows where the bee had stung her, and searched very slow and deliberate. I found a good signal, dug in, and came up with a wad of tin foil. When Abby saw the shiny metal she came running over to only be disheartened finding out the find was tin foil. We were running out of possibilities. She showed me another spot near the flower rows, and then another, but no ring. She then asked if I would be willing to try one more spot she remembered being that day, and I told her she had me there, so she needed to take advantage of that, and YES I would search one more spot for her!

We went over to the other area which was a parking area near my second search of the day, and it was covered with a thick layer of wood chips. She gave me an estimated area to search, and I began a grid. Down, back, down, back, turn, and BAM, a real solid signal in the head phones. I put in the pin pointer, moving the chips around when it sounded, and I saw what looked like the edge of a coin with a smooth edge, nice and silvery. I reached in and picked out this beautiful ring. I tucked it in my palm, and looked up at Abby with a somewhat solemn expression, hands at my side, she started over probably thinking I was throwing in the towel for the search. When she got near I asked what her ring looked like, as I held out my open hand with her ring in it. Abby was immediately swarmed with a multitude of emotions all resulting from the joy she had at seeing her wedding ring again, after being without it for a couple of months. It was then Chris remembered there was a tractor in the area where the ring was found the day of the previous search, and yes I also remembered a tracked vehicle that was parked right on top of the ring the last time I was out there which did not allow us to search that area. We were fortunate it had been moved this time. Chris said they had the ring custom made in an old town in the UK where he was raised, and to tell it myself, the ring looked as if it had been made for Royalty; I might have been right about that, as she is his « queen ». What a wonderful day!

I was at home relaxing Sunday evening when I received a call from Jason. His wife had lost her engagement and wedding rings while getting the sand off her hands. They flew off into the soft sand and were immediately gone. They searched and searched, but were unable to find them. They were on vacation from Colorado, and would be leaving for home in a couple days, so they wanted to find them as soon as possible. Knowing that his beach is heavily detected, as well as cleaned by the County machines, I let Jason know that I was already leaving and would be there soon.

I got to the beach about 10:45, and set out to find Jason in the dark. It took a few minutes, but we connected, and then he walked me out to the area of the loss. When we approached I could see a lady standing out there by herself, it was his wife. She had not left the spot where the loss occurred which helped in trying for the recovery, knowing the location. They had drawn a large circle in which they believed contained the area where the rings should be. I began my grid in the middle of the circle worked out in the direction that she showed me that the rings should  have gone. I worked all of the circle, and then outside of the circle, no rings. I then began working from the middle towards the opposite direction finishing the circle, with no rings. I could detect a bit of discouragement as I looked over to them. I continued out of the circle when I got a strong double beep in the head phones, dug, and had her wedding band in the scoop. As I was raising the scoop I rescanned the hole, and just to the left of it got another strong double beep. I reached in and pulled out her ring, and she was so surprised to see it. I then said I will have the other ring in a second. I scooped, and there it was, her engagement ring. Needless to say, I knew Jason and his wife would sleep well that night; they were very happy, as you can see in her smile.

Jason sent the following testimonial:

My wife’s wedding ring and engagement ring slipped off her finger into the sand along the beach in Santa Monica. The rings were lost at 10 pm on a Sunday night. My wife was devastated even though I repeatedly assured her they were replaceable.  We marked the approximate spot of the location of the rings and called Steve.  Steve met us 45 minutes later (quite impressive for a Sunday night) and found the rings 1 minute later. Thank you so such! Steve’s professionalism, friendly demeanor and cheerful spirit were greatly appreciated during an otherwise stressful situation.  Thank you!!

Platinum Tiffany and Co. Ring Lost While Laying Mulch in Murfreesboro, TN…FOUND!

Christina McCree – Lost Item Recovery Specialist for North Alabama and surrounding areas…call or text ASAP, anytime 24/7…610-504-6135

I received a text message on Tuesday afternoon (August 3, 2021) from a younger gentleman stating that his father, Michael, lost his ring while laying mulch near his house in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.  I was able to take off from work early and was on my way.  My nephew, Sean, came along for this adventure.  He graduated from High School in June and had recently moved down to Alabama about a week prior.  Sean was excited to come along as he’d been looking forward to helping me with my next ring search.

After we arrived at Michael’s home in Murfreesboro, we were shown the area where the mulch was freshly placed earlier in the day.  I noticed a large trash bag and trashcan full of clippings.  I was told that the landscaper had done all that work.  Michael only laid the mulch, and he knew for sure that he had the platinum Tiffany & Co. ring on his finger before he started.  The ring was given to him by his grandmother many years ago and had a special Steam America ship design that is no longer made.

I turned on my Minelab Equinox 800 and got to work.  The area where the mulch was placed wasn’t very large.  I carefully searched all spots around the trees and shrubs.  About 15 minutes into the search and ¾ of the way through, I received a shallow and very promising 7-8 on the Nox.  Using my Garrett “Carrot” pinpointer, I searched through the mulch and located Michael’s missing platinum Tiffany & Co. ring!

Michael wasn’t home at the time we found his ring.  He arrived a few minutes later and was told the great news!  Michael was overcome with joy and relief as he was handed back his very special ring!  I’m always happy to help and blessed to be a member of The Ring Finders!

I received a call from a lady who wished to remain anonymous. She had lost her Mother’s ring in sand at the beach, and needed help in finding it. I let her know I would be on my way.

When I got to the beach she was waiting for me, and showed  me the small area of where she believed the ring should be, so I set up for a search. I started in the middle of the area, and after about 5 swings of my coil I got the sound I wanted, dug, and had her Mother’s Ring with her children’s names written in gold wire in my scoop. She was very thankful, and took my picture with the ring. A fulfilling afternoon!

Marriage Proposal on the Beach Goes Wrong.. Engagement Ring Lost in Sand.. Newport Beach, CA.

If you lost your ring in the sand call  “Stan the Metal Detector Man ”.. 949-500-2136 

*** Geisia was vacationing in Newport Port Beach, CA. with friends and family. Just before sunset they were all on the beach ready to be present when Matthew surprised Geisia, asking her to marry him. When he opened the ring box to give Geisia the ring, the ring was not there.

Panic set in amongst the group, but Matthew proposed anyway. Afterwards everybody in the group tried their luck at finding the ring in the sand, even though nobody actually saw the ring fall into the sand.

The next morning they spent the morning searching the car and the hotel room, because there was a strong probability it could have been lost before getting to the beach. Then they had to drive back to Sacramento, CA. . Four days after the loss Geisia found me while searching for ideas to find the engagement ring.

She realized that several days had pasted when we talked on the phone. There were several areas where the loss could have occurred but I offered to grid search the location on the beach. At least I could give her closure that the ring was not there.

Even though there were people on beach, I went to the beach before noon to cover part of the area where they walked in. It was close to where I live, so I returned to continue clearing the whole area after sunset. It’s hard to stay positive while doing a search where there so many other places the loss could have happened. I love to have people say, ” I saw it fall off my finger ”.. Even then, there are times when the item can not be found.

Long story, short and to my surprise after two hours I got a little weak signal that is typical for a small 10k white gold ring. ”Boom” Geisia’s diamond white gold engagement ring in the scoop. It came just before giving up on the search, because I had been running out of search space. I was more than 25 yards outside the search area box when the miracle happened.

I called them with the good news. Then the next morning, mailed it to them using next day mail service. She sent me awesome thank you messages and photos of her and all their friends.

Arvin called, and he was very unhappy, because he had lost the special ring his father had given him in the sand of the beach. He was shaking the sand out of his shoes when his heavy silver ring slipped off of his finger, and disappeared in the sand. I left immediately to do the search, as I could tell he was very disappointed about the loss.

I got to the beach and found Arvin. We went over what had happened, and I began my grid not finding even trash metal. Then I received a very high signal, so high in fact it was bordering on rusted iron. I dug, and in my scoop was a very heavy silver ring. I gave it to Arvin who was so happy to know that his dad’s gift was with him again!

I received a desperate late night call from Monica. She had been traveling down the coast on her way to the airport, and while stopping on the side of the road to apply sunscreen, she removed her soldered engagement and wedding rings, and laid them in her lap. She then got out of the car forgetting her rings altogether. She left, and was at the airport getting ready to head back to Colorado when she realized the loss, so she had no way to get back to look for the rings. I let her know that I would leave immediately to look for them.

I got to the spot she directed me to, and there was one vehicle in the area she had told me about. I was hoping the car tire was not covering the rings, or that maybe they were knocked out into the highway by another vehicle. I turned on my light and began looking around on the shoulder. As soon as I got in front of the car I spoke of earlier, I flashed the light around the bumper, and got the beautiful glimmer from Monica’s rings right under the front of the car. I took a picture with her rings, sent her a text of the recovery with my picture. She was so surprised and happy to know they had been recovered. We then arranged to get the rings back to her via USPS, and I am happy to report she has them back.

Alexis contacted me in the evening about the loss of her engagement ring in the sand of the beach. She was pushing her child on the swing, when the movement of her hand caused her ring to fly off of her hand, and was immediately lost in the sand. She and her husband searched to no avail for the token of his love for her. Knowing the area to be metal detected frequently, I told them that I would get there as soon as possible to do the search.

When I got there it was dark, but I could see Alexis and her family still searching with flashlights for the lost ring. The area was close to the playground equipment so I turned the sensitivity down on my detector so as to not be too influenced by the playground equipment, and began my grid. I worked one side of the swing set with no ring. I then worked under the swings, still no ring. I began working the other side of the set, and got a nice signal, dug, and had her ring in my scoop. She and her husband were so happy to see it again, and were able to leave for a late dinner, and getting the children to bed. Those smiles are precious!

Bristol Beach, Famouth, MA Ring Lost, Found and Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

When Danielle googled “how to find a ring in ocean” the search returned a blog from the ring finders (it was the first search result)! Then a search for Ring Finders Falmouth led her to my past blogs and contact information.

I received a call from Danielle with a tale of loosing a ring her dad given her 10 years ago. “I look up to and care deeply for my father and I also sentimental feelings in that the ring reminds me of home (where I’m from, in New Jersey).”

The ring was the second ring she had lost, the first was lost in an almost identical situation 10 years ago (playing football in the water at the beach). She vowed to never wear a ring again when doing that, and was pretty good for a number of years before she slipped up. This time the sea was at high tide and the waves were one footers. But I knew the beach and thought I could find it, if Danielle lost the ring where she thought it came off her finger.

I showed up and was getting ready for the search when Danielle and her friend Kelly showed up to point out the area. The help was instrumental in my finding of the ring. I had only minutes before the tide reached its peak height. I started to search as far out as I could go and worked my way toward the shore. I did not hear a signal until my 5th pass when I heard it – the sound that I was sure was the ring – and it was.

I did not remove the ring from my scoop, I left that to Danielle. It added just a bit more to the ordeal that I am sure will be remembered for some time to come.

Lost wedding band recovered in Manasquan NJ by Dennis Burlingame

Was sitting on Union Beach for the morning with my girlfriend when I got a call from Meir asking for help to locate his wedding band he lost the day before in Manasquan. Told him I’d pack up and head right down. Met him at the beach and luckily he put the area where he was sitting in his phones GPS. It seems coming out of the water drying off his ring slipped off his finger. At first he had me in one area then noticed I was alittle off the mark. I moved over about 15 feet and within 2 minutes I found his ring. Needless to say he was very happy to get it back. Another happy beach goer.
