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!

Found Ring of Iron? Not all Gold is jewelry!

  • from Orange (California, United States)

I received a call from Richard today at lunchtime, while I was at work. He needed my help finding a …..Pipe!  Hmmm I thought, okay, I can do that!
He had purchased an old house with a Guest house in the back, as well, and he and his wife are restoring it. This past week we had three days of heavy rain here in California, and he noticed water in his back house basement coming from an electrical box!  Upon investigation he found that there was a pipe leading from the main house, to the back house under the concrete patio, across the lawn and under a concrete walkway into the corner of the basement!

Over 3 days, he captured 10 Gallons of water into buckets, and needed to find where this pipe was so he could repair it.
His contractor told him it would be about $3,000 to break up the concrete to find it and remove/replace it as it was likely metal pipe being such an old home.
Richard had a pretty good idea where he thought it came under the patio, but after probing down several inches witout finding it, he had a friend tell him about TheRingFinders.com so he called me.

I told him I could come out after work, and he was delighted. Grabbing my warm clothes, headlamp (because it is dark out now at 6:30PM), my Equinox 800 with large coil, and a handfull of White Golf Tee’s, I headed out to Whittier, about a 45 minute drive.
I started searching and listening for the Iron Grunt low sounds, I found a good repeatable spot and placed a Golf Tee in the grass. I continued across the yard, and kept placing Golf Tee’s and as you can guess, a straight line emerged pretty fast. All the way to the Concrete walkway just about where he expected it!
He grabbed a small shovel and began to dig, but could not get deep enough. I used my pinpointer, and there was tone for sure. I dug around deeper and soon hit rusty dirt, then paydirt! There was the pipe, and old 1″ Iron pipe, but we also uncovered a PVC Sprinkler pipe shallower so it was good to not have hit that!

The pipe was about a foot deep, not several inches like he had expected.
He was so happy, and while not a Book of Smiles Ring, a big smile for a ring of Iron pipe and thousands saved!
Thanks Richard for using TheRingFinders.com

Lost Wedding Band Recovered in New Orleans Backyard

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)

I was contacted by a man named James in New Orleans who lost his wedding band while pulling weeds in his backyard and had no idea where it could be, since he’d been all over the yard working in different garden beds. I started the search using my Garrett AT Pro-Pointer inside all of the garden beds but had no luck, so as daylight began to fade I switched to my Nokta Makro Simplex Ultra and began systematically searching the yard. After about 45 minutes of searching total and just before it got dark, I got a clean signal and found his ring laying just outside one of the garden beds. He was incredibly relieved, and it was another great reminder of how rewarding it is to help someone recover something so meaningful.

 

Ring found on Carmel By The Sea Beach

  • from Carmel-by-the-Sea (California, United States)

It was a very dark night on the windswept Carmel Main when I got the call, and although we had a bit of a language barrier, I was able to make out « Sunset, ring, lost, beach, Carmel, help, you have machine. » I grabbed my detector, scoop and all-important headlamp and headed out to the beach. The young couple from Italy had been enjoying an iconic California sunset, and as darkness fell, the young guy, wiping sand off his shorts, wiped his wedding band right off his hand, and right down a sandy slope. They wisely marked the spot they were at with a backpack, and so when I found them in my headlamps beam, I turned on my machine and I got to work. I swept in concentric circles from the backpack spot for about twenty minutes, chatting about how much I liked Italy when I visited as a teen. Unfortunately, we found nothing but aluminum pull tabs. Things looked grim. I figured maybe the ring flew farther than they surmised, and maybe some unlucky foot traffic also slid the ring down hill. I worked my way down slope and eventually, I did get a « faint 11 » on my Equinox. Sadly, after three or four attempts, the signal disappeared. I walked back up the slope, and asked the young lady if there happened to be anything shiny in my scoop, she reached in and pulled out their white gold wedding band held it up and cheered. Disaster averted, and I got a huge hug from her, than one from the guy too! He gave me some « American Dollars » as a reward, and I even got an invite to Italy!  I was happy to send the now much happier couple off to Morro Bay, to continue their vacation!

Women’s Engagement Ring Lost in Athens, Alabama… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)

On Friday (November 14, 2025) evening I received a call from Stacey stating a few days prior she had lost her engagement ring while walking down the back porch.  It was cold and she was trying to put on her ring while holding her son.  The ring caught on her fingernail and flew off.  She heard it hit some leaves in the yard.  It was at night, so it was dark out and she couldn’t tell exactly where it went.  We set up a search for the next morning.

I met Stacey around 9:30 Saturday morning in Athens, Alabama.  Stacey showed me exactly how it happened.  Her husband, Victor told me the ring is sterling silver.  I grabbed my Minelab Equinox 900 and started my search.  After a few minutes, a little further from the porch and behind a tarp, I saw Stacey’s ring on the ground!  Stacey and Victor were very happy and thankful to have it back.  Stacey told me that she had searched that area, but there were a lot of leaves, so I’m sure it was completely covered up when they were looking.

Thankful and blessed for another successful recovery!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless…

Lost — 14 kt gold engagement ring with diamond – Samsula, Fl, — FOUND!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

Just as my wife and I pulled into our favorite taco place on Friday, my phone buzzed. It was Diago. His voice was somewhat desperate—he’d lost his girlfriend’s engagement ring, and he needed help.  He and some friends tried to locate it but it was hopeless.

We’d barely parked, the restaurant still minutes from reopening at 5, but I knew the sun was slipping fast thanks to the time change.  So, we left.  As we did, I prayed for God’s favor.

I met Diago at a roadside bar & grille. He pointed out exact the spot where the ring had flown from his hand. It vanished into a patch of tangled grass—short blades, long tufts, and a gloomy drainage ditch. His fiancée, he said, had been in tears.

I fired up my Minelab Manticore, and instantly the machine chattered incessantly – bottle caps, pull tabs, scraps of who-knows-what.  I adjusted my settings, grabbed my pinpointer, and pushed into the grass as daylight drained away.

As darkness enveloped us, I swept every inch of the suspected area, the detector humming, my hopes slipping with the sun. Eventually, I had to turn to Diago and tell him the last thing he wanted to hear: I’d be back at sunrise.

Praying again, I arrived before dawn the next morning. The grass heavy with dew. I started scanning in a slow grid, determined not to miss a thing.  Then—a clean, bright tone!

I dropped to my knees, brushed aside a patch of grass, and there it was: a beautiful gold ring nestled so perfectly in the blades that anyone without a detector would’ve walked past it a hundred times.  God is good!

Later that day I placed the ring back into the hands of an overjoyed couple.

If you’ve lost a ring, keys, or even your phone—whether at the beach or in your backyard—don’t give up hope. Call Detector Ed at 757-419-0299. I’m available day or night. Call or text me as soon as possible—and please, don’t post about it on social media!

Lost wedding ring while doing yard work, Winter Garden, Florida, found with a metal detector!

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 White Gold Wedding Band at Nai’a Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…Found!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began back on Sunday November 2nd while I was hunting for a sentimental ring in Nai’a Lagoon when a young lady approached me and said her Father, Behzad had lost his White Gold Wedding Band in just over neck deep water near where I was hunting.  I told her I could find it but would have to return on scuba at a later date when the water was clear and calm.  It was pretty stirred up at that moment.  The young lady’s Mother Mitra came down to the beach to help me narrow down the search area for the dive.  I was finally able to get in the water on scuba Saturday, November 8th.  I started my dive grid with my orange rope early in the morning but so many people were walking around and messing up my grid line snagging on the rope.  I decided to retrieve my grid line and start a parallel to shore search using the sand waves as guides.  On my first double back I got a booming hit on the Excalibur and  after a few hand waves of the sand Behzad’s big White Gold Wedding Band exposed itself.  Thank you, Jesus! I texted a picture of the ring back to Mitra in Lafayette, California and she responded, « OMG thank you so much »  Behzad received the ring and sent me a picture of his hand wearing the ring with Shaka Emojis.  Aloha to Behzad & Mitra!
