Men’s Gold Wedding Band Lost While Swimming in Booneville, MS… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)

I received a call and text on Sunday (June 22nd, 2025) afternoon from Taylor stating he lost his wedding band while swimming in a pond on his family’s property in Booneville, Mississippi.  I was traveling for work training during the week and told Taylor that I would give him a call after I de-planed.  Taylor told me that he felt his wedding band slip off his finger in about 3-4 feet of water when he was about 10-15 yards from the shoreline.  He was helping his kids out of the deeper end.  I told him that I didn’t get back to Huntsville, AL until Friday, but I would be more than happy to conduct a search on the weekend.  We setup a 9am meetup time on Saturday, June 28th.

I met Taylor in Booneville after a beautiful drive 2 hour and 15-minute drive through the Alabama and Mississippi countryside.  He helped me take my water detecting gear down to the pond.  I got in the water and had Taylor direct me to where he thought his ring came off.  I put in my marker pole and went back to the shoreline for my Minelab Equinox 900 with the 15-inch coil and long handled Xtreme scoop.  Taylor went inside the house and I started searching in the water.

On my walk out to the marker pole I found a penny.  Then, when I was about 1-2 feet from the pole on the left side I received a nice sounding tone on my Nox.  It took about 5 tries until I could get the target in my scoop, because the water was up to my chin and I was slightly buoyant from my wetsuit bottoms.  The pond bottom was a soft mud.  Once I confirmed that I had the item in my scoop, I walked over to the shallow end to shake out the mud.  I soon saw a gold ring glimmering back up at me — we had Taylor’s wedding band!  I took out the ring just as Taylor’s mother-in-law, Jenny and Taylor’s wife, Brooke we’re walking outside.  Taylor followed behind.  I held it up for them to see and we all cheered!  I looked up to the sky and said, “thank you, God!”

I walked to the shoreline to hand Taylor his ring and the family dog, Loki was there to greet me and celebrate.  Taylor and his family were so grateful for the help and told me how much it meant to them.  Taylor and Brooke had just gotten married on November 16th.  I told them that helping others and seeing the joyful reactions is the reason why I do this.  I give God all the glory.

Taylor invited me in for some coffee and Jenny offered some delicious homemade breakfast – biscuits and gravy (what I wanted all week lol), eggs, and a porkchop.  I graciously accepted.  Jenny’s husband, Darryl had just arrived home and we all enjoyed a nice conversation.  We then said our good-byes and I was back on the road headed home to Huntsville.  Until the next one… please take care and God bless!

Sara’s engagement ring recovered

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Sara was vacationing at Ft. Walton Beach Florida when she lost her wedding rings. She was able to find the wedding band but not the engagement ring. She had returned home to Illinois when she called asking if I could find her lost ring. She sent me an aerial with an outline of the area she lost it and a photo of her engagement ring. The next morning i searched the area and found her ring within 8 or 10 feet of where she predicted but was 5 or 6 inches deep. The next day Sara and I did a face time call with the folks at my local UPS store and sent her ring home secure, insured and with in person delivery. Sara was very happy her ring is back where it belongs!

Lost platinum engagement ring, recovered, Lake Wawasee, IN

  • from Granger (Indiana, United States)

Earl called a couple days ago from the lake, after his fiancé had lost her platinum engagement ring while at the sandbar. I asvised him to mark the location via map apps, take several pictures of shoreline (homes, piers, etc) to allow lining up land marks and also try to get a distant object if possible, to add accuracy to lining up with a nearby landmark or roof ridge etc. Also told him to toss out several coins if he had any available, as any other marker would be taken by others. I had to work, so couldn’t go out that same day to search. Was somewhat worried a local pirate may find the ring prior to recovery search. Got out today, used gps pin to anchor, used distant cell tower and near flagpole to get the exact line the coins would be in. I turned detector on, dug one target and dumped that in the floating sifter, couldn’t see any ring. Scooped the next target and saw a nice ring in the scoop, less than two minutes in. Told him I found it and he was amazed, as was I, but just goes to show, his diligence in taking the advice paid off to get it recovered. Smiles all around, ring back where it belongs.

Lost Yellow Gold, Moss Agate & Diamonds Engagement Ring at Battery Hawkins Beach HickamAFB…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a text from Taylor which read, « I’m in need of a ring finder!  My husband lost my ring at the beach on Hickam AFB. »  I immediately called and Taylor told me the story how her and her husband were spending the day at the beach with their dogs and after putting her Yellow Gold, Moss Agate & Diamonds Engagement Ring in a beach bag she discovered at the end of the day when they got back to their vehicle, the ring was no longer in the beach bag.  The dogs had pulled over a beach chair the bag was on a few times and they believed it may have fallen out then.  They purchased a metal detector at a local store and all of you detectorists know they don’t perfom very well.  They only found trash targets.  We agreed to meet in 30 minutes at the beach.  When we got to the spot a family was occupying the area but graciously moved their chairs & items so I could hunt.  I fired up the Manticore and my first target was solid.  After several scoops I looked in the scoop and saw a gorgeous ring but Taylor told me she thought the ring was white gold.  But in fact this was her ring.  Everyone was so shocked how quickly I was able to recover Taylor’s ring.  Taylor’s husband Alan was no longer in the « doghouse » so to speak.  Aloha to Taylor & Alan!

Lost Ring Recovery on Oxnard, Ventura, Carpinteria, Malibu, and Santa Barbara Beaches
On the evening of July 4th, the beaches of Oxnard, Ventura, Carpinteria, Malibu, and Santa Barbara were alive with fireworks and festivities. Amid the celebrations, my phone buzzed constantly with calls from people desperate to recover lost jewelry. While I couldn’t assist everyone, one call stood out—Patrick, who had lost his wedding ring while enjoying a family day at Silverstrand Beach in Oxnard, CA.Patrick and his family had been soaking up the sun and surf when his platinum wedding ring slipped off his finger into the dry sand. He froze, marked his spot mentally, and began searching frantically with his family. They sifted through the sand for over an hour, but the ring remained elusive. Frustrated, Patrick’s wife decided it was time to call a professional.
That’s when they reached out to me, Dave The RingFinder, at 805-290-5009.
We arranged for me to arrive at Silverstrand Beach at sunrise the next morning. Patrick provided detailed photos and a precise location, which helped narrow down the search area. At 5:45 AM on July 5th, I hit the beach, expecting to see other detectorists eager to scour the post-holiday sands. Surprisingly, I had the beach to myself. Using my Minelab Manticore, I methodically gridded the area, starting small and expanding outward. After a careful sweep, I got a solid 39-40 signal, plunged my CKG scoop into the sand, and there it was—Patrick’s gleaming platinum wedding ring.
Losing a ring on the beaches of Oxnard, Ventura, Carpinteria, Malibu, or Santa Barbara can feel devastating, but time is critical.

Lost A Ring?
Dont wait Call NOW!
609-780-4525
Received a message from Victor last Sunday. He explained that he lost a rose gold ring while at the beach last Saturday. Victor had already returned back home to Philadelphia but he did mark his location with a “pin” from his cell phone. He wasnt sure if it was in the dry sand or water but he did believe it may have dropped where he was sitting. Took a ride over Monday morning and proceeded to the coordinates he provided. After a brief search I heard a faint signal and dug down about 1ft, out came Victors ring! After sharing the good news I shipped the ring back to him and he received it yesterday. Another happy client!!
Victors Review:
“I am still amazed by Jeff’s work and diligence in helping me recover my lost wedding band. When my ring went missing at the beach, I thought for sure that I’d never see it again. Jeff found my ring a full 24+ hours later buried at least A FOOT in sand. I’m relieved that there are caring people out there like Jeff. I’m forever grateful for his service and would recommend him a million times over.”

Sea Isle City NJ Lost Wedding Band Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)

Call now! Don’t wait!

215-850-0188

Colin and his family were enjoying a sunny vacation in Sea Isle City, NJ. Like many beachgoers, they spent the day relaxing, swimming, and playing in the sand. Before heading out to the beach, Colin applied sunscreen and tied his wedding ring to the drawstring of his bathing suit. It seemed like a safe spot at the time.

The day flew by with fun and sun. Colin had completely forgotten where he’d placed his ring. Later that evening, while out to dinner with his family, he remembered. He reached down to untie the ring and realized—it was gone. His heart sank.

Everyone at the table felt the shock. Colin shared the story with a few people nearby. Someone overheard and suggested he contact Ring Finders South Jersey. They said, “You need The Sea Isle City Ring Finder! He’s helped a lot of people recover lost jewelry.”

Colin reached out the very next day.

When he called me, I could hear the worry in his voice. His wedding ring held deep sentimental value. He gave me a general idea of where they had been on the beach. Though Colin had already left Sea Isle City to head home, he was hopeful the ring could still be found.

I headed out that same day with my gear. As a local expert in Sea Isle City metal detector searches, I know the beaches well. I began by gridding off the area he described, working slowly and methodically. I scanned every section carefully, checking signals and removing trash to get better readings.

After about an hour of searching, I heard a clean, solid tone. I dug carefully—and there it was. A beautiful gold wedding band buried just a few inches under the sand.

Success!

Since Colin had already left town, I met up with his sister, who was still in Sea Isle City. I returned the ring to her, and she promised to deliver it back to Colin. The look on her face said it all—relief, joy, and disbelief that it had actually been found.

It’s moments like these that make this job so rewarding. Helping someone recover a treasured item they thought was lost forever is incredibly meaningful.

If you’ve lost a ring or any piece of jewelry on the beach, don’t wait. Contact Ring Finders South Jersey or reach out to The Sea Isle City Ring Finder. The sooner we start the search, the better the chances of finding it.

I use professional-grade metal detecting equipment and have years of experience recovering lost items in Sea Isle City, Avalon, Wildwood, and beyond.

Whether it’s a wedding band, engagement ring, or another keepsake, I’m here to help. Your story could be the next happy ending.
