Do you need a metal detector to find something that is lost in your yard or at the park? Why not hire a professional metal detecting expert instead. My name is Mike McInroe…Central Florida Ring Finder at 321-363-6029! On land, in the park, the grass, sand, in cars, homes…rings, jewelry, keys, phones, property markers, etc.

Donovan was doing some work along the Florida Turnpike in Clermont, Florida and after laying out cable and then loading up the company truck he noticed that his wedding ring was no longer on his finger. He checked his gloves and then the truck and retraced his steps hoping to spot his lost gold wedding ring. He and his coworker searched for over an hour and finally realized that they probably needed a metal detector along with someone who actually knew how to use it to help find his lost gold wedding ring. Donovan found my number on theringfinders.com website and after hearing his story I met him later on that afternoon. He explained that there were two places where he was fairly sure he lost his ring…so at the first location he explained how he had laid out a few thousand feet of fiber optic cable in a large figure eight but I searched the immediate area and then further out just to be sure but his ring was not there. The second location was a much larger area and he explained how he again laid out another large figure eight of cable and also had run down a steepish hill where he said at the bottom of the slope he said he shook his hands…but again after covering most all that area…still no ring. I asked Donovan if there was anything else he might have done that could have made his ring come off and he said at one point he threw a large plastic traffic cone down the hill so that was an area that deserved a good look. I searched all along the downhill trajectory that the cone would have taken and then went to the top where Donovan threw it from and low and behold there was his lost gold wedding ring…behind where he stood and slightly over his right shoulder. Donovan could not believe that I was actually able to find it and he was very, very happy and could not stop smiling and thanking me!

Gold ring lost while laying sod finally found

  • from Marco Island (Florida, United States)

Four weeks into a gardening project the loss of her husbands ring while laying sod kept coming up, the drive up the driveway also a constant reminder of the loss.  Coincidentally or by sheer divine appointment Yessenia sent us a text requesting help.  The rest is history, our motto being “it’s only lost until you call.”  After over three hours under the hot humid Florida sun the ring was successfully located about 6 inches down under a sod strip.  That’s where having the best MineLab equipment really pays dividends, having the knowhow and right tool for the job.  Thanks be to God, their story continues, the wedding band back on the finger where it belongs.  🙌💍🎉

LOST HEIRLOOM WHITE GOLD WEDDING RING IN NORTH SPOKANE….FOUND!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There are only a few reasons why Jade would take off her ring, which was a gorgeous white gold wedding ring her grandma left her when she passed. However, the reason that made her ring come off was not a reason she had ever considered. See, Jade was at a birthday party for her nephew, and it was in full swing. The pool was cool and refreshing. The drinks were delicious and overflowing. Jade’s family were all having a great time. Amongst all this glee there was a tussle that broke out. It was brother vs. sister; I’m pretty sure sister won. This led into a cousin falling down and Jade and a few others trying to pick up the poor fella. The night seemed to slip away into the darkness of a hazy birthday party. After the fog of a few too many had lifted, Jade’s hand that the ring was on felt a little off. As Jade brought it up into view, the problem became very clear. Grandmas ring was missing. The moments turned into hours, the hours turned into an afternoon, the whole family was in search and recover mode. They took a quick trip to the hardware store, and they had a metal detector in their grip. Swinging the coil around felt awkward. The myriads of signals played havoc on their confidence and ultimately left them feeling hopeless. Hopeless fingers got online and typed in a search term that brought up The Ring Finders website. The same fingers dialed the local Ring Finder.  My ears got to hear the sad story of how Jade lost her ring. Then I drove quickly to Jade’s mom’s house where the ring was hiding. Tracy, Jade’s mom gave me more details about that night before and how the ring probably was lost. I made a few passes over the most likely spot and then moved outward from there. After completing two grid searches on the grass I moved onto the unlikely areas. Behind the pool, in the trash can, in the neighbor’s yard and finally around the patio. As some of Jade’s family was leaving so was my hope in finding Jade’s ring. Talking about how I would search the house with Tracy, I decided to go over how the ring could be lost in the gap of the flower box and the fence. Both the flower box and the fence were giving off strong metal signals. Even though I had already searched with my coil and my pin pointer in this flower box I had not pulled back the grass and looked in the gap. As I shuffled through the weeds, I moved a pool noodle that was wedged in the gap. After not seeing the ring, I set down the noodle and got a very shocking glimpse of Jade’s ring. The eruption of emotion took over the moment. Jade had been inside the house when I said the famous Ring Finders words,  » I Found It ».  Tracy called to Jade and they both embraced in a hug with tears of joy running down their faces. Shock waves for happiness radiated out from that back yard.  The thoughts of a higher power at work crossed Jades mind as she looked up to sky at her late grandma smiling down on her. I know how mysterious Gods works are and that afternoon was no small miracle. Jade’s ring was found and I thank the God for that. Thank you, Jade, and to your family as well for trusting The Ring Finders and believing in the goodness of people.

 

The Feisty Grand Kid loses Grandmas Wedding Ring

 

The first GOLD ring I ever found, went VIRAL!

  • from Meridian (Idaho, United States)

One of my favorite memories…

After finding my first ever gold ring while metal detecting, I did a little detective work to track down the original owner. The ring I found was a big 1960 gold class ring from a nearby high school. After a little research, I found that the school keeps photos of each graduating class in the main hallway. After finding the class of 1960 all I had to do was find the person with the same initials on the ring, and as luck would have it, there was only one match. I instantly punched his name into Google on my phone, and to my surprise, he was the first person to pop up. After contacting this person and asking him if he had lost a class ring, we set up a meeting so I could return it to him. He and his wife were thrilled to see the ring again after over fifty years of being lost, and I was glad I could be a part of its return.

After more than 50 years lost, the ring made its way back to the original owner.  It’s moments like these that remind me why I love detecting!

Success – Wedding Ring Found – Downingtown, Pa

  • from Ambler (Pennsylvania, United States)

I received a text from Matt last weekend to say that he thought he had lost his Platinum wedding band while mowing his lawn.  I was able to make it to his property and conduct a search a few days later.  After approximately 25 minutes with my coil to the soil I was able to locate said ring.  Matt was thrilled and could not believe that I found his ring for he had purchased a machine hoping to find the ring on his own.  Without success, he needed to call in the pros.  Another satisfied customer of the AMDC

 

LOST GOLD WEDDING RING IN CHARLOTTE, NC…..FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)


I received a call last night from this gentleman stating he had just lost his ring. We agreed to meet up the next morning so we had more time and sunlight. He continued saying he bought a metal detector and was getting lots of signals. He took the machine back last night after we talked.

I arrived around 8:30 and found the gold ring by 9:30. He thought he lost it about 50 yards back so we spent most of the time searching where he thought he lost it. After I wasn’t finding it, I started working my way further down and finally got a good double tap single I was hoping for!

He was so exited! Another happy story! Love recovering rings for people!!!

Lost Sentimental Gold Rope Chain at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This Gold Chain Find began Sunday, 17 May as I was recovering a lost Gold Wedding band at Aulani Resort.  After a successful ring recovery, a gentleman approached me and said his friend Jeremy from Poway, California had lost his Sentimental Gold Rope Chain the day before nearby the paddle board buoys.  He went to go get Jeremy so we could focus the search area down.  Jeremy explained he had been rough housing with children of the family in the water and he imagined the chain had to of fallen off in waist to chest deep water in the area near the buoys.  I did a search but the chain eluded me.  I told Jeremy I would return at a later time and bring scuba in case it was in deeper water.  After a bit of a communication mix up, I returned on Thursday 21 May and found a hefty gold chain on the shoreline in ankle deep water.  To verify the chain I asked Jeremy if he could identify the two unique words on the clasp but he said his was plain and didn’t have a name.  We assumed it wasn’t his and it didn’t quite match the grainy photo Jeremy had sent on Sunday.  Another search yielded no other chains.  The more I looked at the photo the more I was convinced this could be Jeremy’s chain.  I gave Jeremy a call back in Poway, California.  He still couldn’t identify the names, so I asked if he had a better picture of the chain.  He said he did and sent one to me.  There was no doubt.  Fortunately for us, Jeremy’s niece was still on island just down the street from my home.  We made the transfer and she returned it to Jeremy today.  Grandfather’s chain reunited and look at that smile of thankfulness.  Aloha to Jeremy!

This had to be one of my craziest searches, in fact I even wonder today why I just didn’t walk away from it when I got there. I received a call from Alexis asking if I could come and help her find her ring she lost in the bushes the day before. I let her know I could, and we arranged a time for me to be there.

I arrived, and found my parking further down the street from Alexis’ house. I sent her a text to let her know I was there, and walked over to the house. As I was heading over I saw a man come out of the house, and start working on a car a couple doors down. I stopped in front of the house, sent another text, and waited. Not long after Alexis came out with a small dog, and I waved to let her know I was who she was waiting for. She put her finger to her mouth to shush me, and pointed to the man (her husband) working on the car. It was then I began to rethink being there. I realized she did not want her husband to know that I was there to help her. She pointed to the other side of the street, and down the block to meet her there, which I did, and then she explained how she had been walking her dog, and lost the ring in the bushes not far from where her husband was working. I told her I would search the area for her, and walked over to begin. Fortunately her husband was preoccupied with what he was doing to see the two of us talking. I searched for about 30 minutes in thick ground cover, while Alexis was walking her dog up and down the street occasionally stopping to see my progress. I found the ring, and held it toward her to let her know it was found. She came right over to retrieve it, and I looked to see that her husband had gone back into the house. I have no idea what was going on between the two, and Alexis did not want her picture taken, but I do know that even police officers do not like walking into domestic disputes, as they can be very explosive. Alexis was very relieved to have her ring back, and I was relieved that nothing more came of it. It was a good recovery.

White Gold w/Blue Sapphire Engagement Ring lost in the Ocean. Found and Returned Wrightsville Beach, NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)

On Friday, May 22, 2026, just after 8:30 am, I received a call from the Oak Island, NC.  Ring Finder, John Finnerin. He asked if I could take a call from a young lady, Amanda, who lost her engagement ring on Wrightsville Beach, NC. I told him I’d be glad to and we hung up. Amanda called me and explained that she had lost her ring the day before. I told her I’d be there in about an hour and 30-40 minutes. On the way, I ask for an address where we could meet and a few more details. In some of her response she stated she probably lost it around 2 or 3pm and wasn’t sure if she lost it in the water or where they were sitting. She also said that they were in the water and did go out to chest deep around 2pm. I looked at the time I’d be there and where the tide was going to be and it didn’t look promising.

When I got to the meeting area, Blaine, her fiancé was waiting at the corner to direct me to parking. We walked up the street to the beach access and I met Amanda. We walked out on the beach and over to the area they had been sitting, Blaine thought it was another 30 yards south. Looking over the situation, it was very close to high tide, and the sea breeze had picked up and blowing some pretty good size waves up on the beach. About the only thing I was going to be able to accomplish then was going to be a grid search of the beach down to the water’s edge. I did an east/west grid search and eliminated the entire beach area. At that point, I was stalling for time hoping that the sea and wind would calm down, didn’t happen! I did try and see how far I could get out in the water. Unfortunately, when a wave hit me and knocked me down, causing me to break the cuff on my detector, my day was done. I came to the conclusion that I’d have to come back and hit the morning low tide for calm seas and before the sea breeze started. I don’t remember if I told Amanda and Blaine that I was going to come back or not. This was Friday, and because of the Memorial Day weekend, I wasn’t able to get back out until Tuesday morning around 9 am. I called my good friend Burwin, who has helped me numerous times and asked him if he was up for an adventure. I don’t think he’s ever told me no.

We showed up a little after 9 am on Tuesday and I asked him to start on the east side, and I’d start on the west side, and we’d meet in the middle. Both of us were doing a north/south grid line. Since I was down a detector, I broke out my Surf PI. I haven’t used that machine in years; it just gets heavy. I was probably a quarter of the way across my area and maybe shin deep when I got a hit. I pulled out 3 scoops of heavy wet sand before I got the target out of the hole. Spread the sand out and ran the coil over the area. Boom! I saw a round object packed with sand and reached down to pick it up. I had Amanda’s ring in my hand. I cleaned it off and took 3 pictures of it. I called Amanda, who was working, and asked her what her ring looked like. I knew I had it from the description she gave me on day one.  I also sent her the 3 pictures. As she’s explaining, she stopped and said, “My Ring!” I know there were tears flowing down her cheeks, and she couldn’t talk. I love the surprise reactions, makes it all worthwhile!! I was able to make it to the Post Office and get it in the mail. She should get it Friday.

Today, Saturday I got a text message with a picture of Amanda attached. The text said, “Officially got my ring back! We’re beyond grateful for your help Jim!!”

Amanda and Blaine – I’m so happy I could find your treasure. Thank you for trusting me to help.

Jim

Rosa called me for help. She had been in her local park the day before, and had taken off her wedding and engagement rings, and held them in her hand as she was walking along. Suddenly she tripped, and without realizing it opened her hand causing the rings to fly out in front of her into the tall grass. She was able to find the wedding ring, but not the engagement ring. We arranged a time to meet, and I was on my way.

When I got there Rosa walked me over to the area where she had tripped. While on our way over she told how she had searched hours, and how her husband had been out there looking until 3:00 AM. We got to the spot, and I positioned myself judging on the direction Rosa had been moving. I swung my coil once received a signal, put in my pinpointer, and had her ring, all within about 15 seconds. Rosa was flabbergasted! She could not believe after all the time she and her husband spent searching, that it could be found so quickly. Needless to say, she was very joyful.
