Yesterday afternoon I got  call from Ross explaining that his wife had lost her wedding ring at the beach in the Pierpont area of Ventura. She had been brushing off some sand and in doing so her ring flew off to an unknown stretch of sand. I was out of town at that moment so I told Ross I would get out there at sun up Monday morning and recover the ring for them. He sent me a pin of the general location and I assured him that if it was there I would find the ring.

As stated I got out there just before the sunrise and started working the area gridding and expanding as I went. Jen met me out there and we determined that I should move a bit south and grid there. After several passes we expanded the zone and then on the next pass I got a sweet tone on my Minelab Manticore that told me a ring recovery was imminent and sure enough in the scoop was Jen’s wedding ring! Another ring returned to it’s owner by Dave The RingFinder!

Huge gold tungsten ring found Delor-wiggins pass returned

  • from Marco Island (Florida, United States)
Contact:

August 9, 2026

After spending the afternoon on the beach and waiting for another beautiful sunset, they suddenly found themselves running back to the car as they sought  shelter from the approaching thunderstorm.  That’s when Michael noticed that his ring wasn’t on his finger, the same one he’d so carefully paced on the edge of his towel earlier before going swimming.  Returning to the beach that evening and first thing the next morning to look for the ring produced no results.  A quick Google search revealed the solution…call Mark for “it’s only lost until you call!”  The rest is history.  A thorough search of about a 1/4 mile of beach finally yielded the prize, a huge gold tungsten ring.

Lost Wedding Ring found and returned at ThorneHill Broome Beach in Malibu by Dave The RingFinder

Late last night I got a text from Steve who was camping at ThorneHill Broome Beach just north of Malibu. He and his wife had been stargazing on the sand when he went to get up and as he did his platinum ring fell off and buried itself in the dry sand. It was late, it was dark and searching was futile so Steve did the next best thing and searched the internet and found Dave The RingFinder. I messaged him back that I would be there bright and early the next morning and get his ring back to him so he could enjoy the rest of his camping stay.

I met Steve at 6:45am at the picnic table area where the loss occurred. The problem of finding his ring became apparent almost immediately in that picnic tables at beaches in Southern California are loaded with every bit of metal trash there is. Pull-tabs, rusty bottle caps, chunks of aluminum foil and items burned from fires long ago where all throughout the sand where the ring was lost. This was going to be hunt where I needed to eliminate as much trash as possible so I could actually hear his ring. Scoop after scoop of metal junk came out and finally I had the ability to listen for his ring and within a minute or two I got the sound I was looking for and Steve’s ring was in my scoop and going back to him! Another ring saved in Malibu by Dave The RingFinder.

Lady’s White Gold USC Gamecocks Class Ring Takes Flight at High Tide, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

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

On Saturday, August 8, 2026, I saw FB notifications on a post about a USC class ring being lost. Just before 6:30 p.m. I received a text message saying, “Hi Jim! Someone recommended you to me on face book. I lost my college ring in the ocean on 6th Ave. south in North Myrtle Beach today. Its silver and has a 13 on side and says Go Cocks on the inside. Is there any way you can help find it? It was high tide when it came off.” I responded saying call me with my phone number.” Within seconds my phone rang, and Cassy was on the other end. I got additional details and told her I’d be there in 15 minutes.

When I arrived, Cassy and her mother, Debbie was sitting in their golf cart waiting. As we walked out on the beach, Cassy said her and her mother had been throwing a ball, and her ring flew off. We walked out to the area, and Debbie showed me where she was standing and Cassy showed me where she had been. This happened right at high tide and they were ankle deep. I turned on the Equinox 800, started where Cassy and been standing and walked across the top of the slope. Since the ring was white gold, I was expecting a number on the machine’s VDI (visual display indicator) between 1-5. I got to about where Debbie had been standing and got a solid 2 on the VDI. Bingo!!! Dug a small scoop of sand, gently shook it out and had Cassy’s ring in the bottom of the scoop. I took it out and held it up for both of them to see it and Cassy gave out a little scream. Total time was maybe 2 minutes. Cassy was so excited and couldn’t believe how fast it was. Her lost treasure is now back exactly where it belongs.

Cassy, thank you for allowing me to help find and return your special USC ring.

The Atlantic Ocean Makes the Catch! Man’s White Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

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

This search started on Friday, Aug. 8, 2026, when I got a text just after noon saying in part, “Hi Jim, Found your number in ring finders. We are currently staying at the Shelby in Myrtle Beach. I was having a catch around 12pm today ankle deep with my son. Wedding band flew off my finger. Locals told me about the site. Wondering if it’s something you may help me find. I’ll try to find a picture of it. It’s silver color, with a Celtic design. My name is Bob and he added his phone number. I was between the south tower of the Shelby and the main tower, probably not much past where their tiki bar is at their pool.” I looked up the current tide table and saw it was about 45 minutes before high tide. So, he lost his ring just about mid-tide and it would be completely under water by the time I got there. I called Bob and we discussed the situation with him telling me that he and his family had plans for that evening and wouldn’t be able to meet me. It’s very helpful to get first hand and face to face information so I agreed to meet him in about 30 minutes.

I met Bob on the beach and he explained the details, like being ambidextrous and writing with his right hand but throwing with his left hand. He also showed me the small area he was standing at the top of the slope and about where his son was at the bottom of the slope. I told him I’d be back around 6 to work the outgoing tide.

When I returned that evening, I started an east/west (shore to thigh deep) grid search, concentrating on the bottom of the slope. I covered the entire area plus extending the search area on each ends. This was the cleanest beach I’d worked in a while, 1 bottle cap, no coins or pull tabs, and a full tooth gold plated silver grill, but no ring. By that time, it had gotten dark and I didn’t bring my head lamp because I didn’t think I’d need it. So, I started about shin deep and worked a north/south grid working towards the low tide line. I was right at the bottom of the slope and got a little chirp. As I dug sand out the hole the signal got more pronounced and louder. After 4 or 5 big scoops of sand, I finally had the target out of the hole and dumped it on the beach. I had to feel around in the sand and ended up putting my thumb through the ring hole. I then had to walk up to use the flashlight on my phone to see if I had Bob’s ring. I took 3 pictures of it from different angles and sent him a text saying, “What do you think????” I gave him a minute or two and called him. He answered on the first ring in amazement his ring had been found. He and his family were out taking in some sights and said he could be there in about 30 minutes. I told him no hurry and I’d wait right there until he arrived. When they arrived and I handed him his ring, he was so happy and grateful to get it back. These reactions make it all worthwhile.

Bob – Thank you for trusting and allowing me to help find your lost treasure. It was truly my pleasure.

Jim

Quick Ring Recovery – Crystal Beach Ontario

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:

When my phone rang and I saw the number was from Switzerland, I almost didn’t answer. I’m sure glad I did.

On the other end was a woman visiting Canada who had just lost a very special ring while swimming at one of our local beaches. Luckily, she was nearby, so we grabbed our gear and headed over right away.

After a short search in the water, we got the signal we were hoping for. The ring was found and safely returned to a very relieved and happy owner.

Sometimes the calls you almost don’t answer turn into the best recoveries!

This Gold and Diamond Ring Was Found Fast!

Ring Finders South Jersey Recovers Jeffrey’s Lost Ring

Losing a valuable ring at the beach can ruin an otherwise perfect day.

That happened to Jeffrey while enjoying a day in Wildwood, New Jersey.

Jeffrey was throwing a football when his gold and diamond ring came off.

The ring disappeared into the beach sand.

He searched for the ring but could not locate it.

Instead of continuing to search without professional equipment, Jeffrey called Ring Finders South Jersey.

I arrived in Wildwood approximately 15 minutes after receiving his call.

The suspected search area required walking through soft, dry beach sand.

Once I reached the location, I began a systematic metal detecting search.

Foot traffic can also move sand and change the appearance of the area.

I worked through the search area using professional metal detecting equipment.

Shortly after starting, I located Jeffrey’s gold and diamond ring.

Jeffrey could finally relax and enjoy the rest of his day in Wildwood.

Gold ring lost in ocean, FOUND! Cape May, NJ By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Cathy last evening. Cathy explained that she was swimming in the ocean with her family when her ring slipped off of her finger and disappeared into the chest deep surf. After gathering some location specifics and checking the tide charts, I decided to search for the ring at tonight’s low tide. The surf was pretty sporty this evening, but I began working my search patterns as accurately as possible. After about 45 minutes of searching my detector emitted a distinct low growl. After sifting several scoops of sand, Cathy’s ring appeared in the bottom my scoop. I gave Cathy the good news via text and she and her husband come down and retrieved their ring. Another happy couple another successful recovery!

Cathy’s Review: « Lost my wedding band in the surf at Grant Beach in Cape May and thought it was gone forever! Was told about Ring Finders…learned how time and tides work against them when they search… so I called Jeff that same afternoon. I didn’t know help was available! With as much information as I could give him, he worked the place I lost it twice during ebbing tides the next day. He found the ring buried under a foot of sand with waves crashing around him, and beachgoers applauding him. I was amazed, grateful, and happy to have had this turn out this way. Thank you, Ring Finders! »
