Lost Wedding Ring Found at Carpinteria State Beach


Received a call from John he said his fiancé had thrown her rings in the backyard field and he wanted to recover them before he made an insurance claim. I agreed to meet him on January 31, 2025 and search for the lost rings. I arrived as scheduled and started my search of the large field. I started to my right side and my first pass was about 75’ long then moved over and searched back 75’. I continued for about an hour and had made about 5 passes 75’ deep by about 50’ wide. At about 1 hour and 10 minutes I found a small gold ring and figured the other one should be close by. About 5 minutes later I found the ring he was looking for. John was glad and I was happy I was able to locate your ring. Thank you for the reward John!!!

Kara reached out to me about her lost diamond earring in the sand in Avalon, NJ. She was removing her shirt and it got caught sending it somewhere into the sand.
Arriving at the beach, I carefully scanned the area with my metal detector where Kara had last seen the earring. My metal detector finally picked up a signal, buried beneath the surface.
There it was – Kara’s lost earring, glinting in the sun. Kara was excited to see the earring! They were able to continue to enjoy the rest of their time at the Jersey Shore in Avalon, New Jersey.

The recent « Polar Votex » or just plain COLD weather prompted a series of service calls in just one day which is very unusual. One of the calls was from Vicki who called me and stated that she had lost her ring in the snow when she put it down to run a metal detector over it. They were trying to find an engagement ring that had been lost by another family member earlier in the day when cleaning off her car. I was just wrapping up another search with disappointingly – no luck. With the cold and darkness Vicki thought it might be good for me to come out another day. I told her I would swing by hoping to have at least one quick recovery as I was going to pass within about 5 miles of the place they were lost on my way home from the current search.
On my way I was thinking how hard can it be to find the ring that was put in the snow, they should pretty much know where it was. I figured I would have a quick recovery of Vicki’s ring and then maybe with some additional luck find the other. I arrived at the search location and found that area in which the ring had been located was pretty much bare. Prior to searching the internet for additional help they tried to sift through all the snow with a garden soil screen and used a heater to melt the snow. All of the snow from where the second ring was lost had been put into garbage cans and dumped alongside the house.
I started to look without much success, first over the original area and then where the new snow was dumped. I did have a really sweet sound but there was nothing there or so I thought. I was not having much luck and after having been in and out of the cold for several hours and with the darkness I decided I would need to come back. As I was getting ready to pack my gear I decided I should pull my car up and check the street again in case the plow came by before I came back out. I walked down and back and on my way back got a good hit. I dug into the packed snow and found the first ring that had been lost.


I got back in the car to head home with the promise of coming back out to look for the other ring. Glad to have found one although it was not the one I thought I would have located first. As I started home I couldn’t help but notice the car thermometer read -3.
The next day I contacted Vicki and told her I did not think I was going to be able to come out, however a couple of things changed and I was able to go back down. I was pretty confident that in the daylight I should be able to find the second ring. Well I was right…within about five minutes I located the ring. Remember the sweet sound I mentioned from the night before. I wanted to remove it from the ground so I would not keep hearing it. I had to dig down about a 1/8 -1/4 of an inch under the ground and there in the mud was Vicki’s ring. The ring must have gotten tramped into the ground during the moving and melting of the snow, but I had been expecting to find it on top of the ground.

I was glad to have found both rings – one that had a history of 48 years and the other that had one of just 34 days. It was great to meet another group of kind and generous people and find the first rings of 2025!

I received a call from Marqus asking if I could help find his mother’s jewelry. Her home of 30 years had burned in the Altadena fire a couple of weeks ago, and although they had gone back looking 3 times, they were unable to find much of anything. He told me that she had a lot of jewelry, and really needed to find it. I let them know I was available to help them, so we arranged a time for us to meet at the site for the search.
We met at a local fast food restaurant, and then I followed Marqus and his mother to the site. Driving through the destruction was just surreal. It looked like a movie set, and made my heart drop to know that so many people lost so much of what they worked their lives for. So many memories, all gone so fast.
When we got to the house there wasn’t much. Marqus and his mother showed me where I should look for her jewelry, and so I began a meticulous search of each area they showed me. In the first area, where she said her best jewelry was, I found among other small items, a very large clump of melted gold that had formed around one of the bed legs. In another area where the silver was stored, I was able to find a lot of it (all melted), so much that it filled a basket. In the third area, I had to break apart a wall that had fallen in to access the last area, and there I found a whole bunch of somewhat intact jewelry, I think the wall may have protected it from completely melting down. I was able to fill a plastic container with all of that jewelry which included at least 7 watches, bracelets, rings, and necklaces. After a total of about 3 hours, I was able to help provide closure for Marqus’ mom. It was a very humbling day for me.

It was the first time Eugenio had seen snow. His wife and another couple decided to have some fun sledding on the Fairfax George Mason Campus. At some point, Eugenio noticed his platinum and gold wedding band was missing. He contacted me and the next day we set up a search. Eugenio got permission from the GMU police, and we met at the campus station. The short drive to the hill and walk to the sledding area seemed much longer because it was only 30 degrees Fahrenheit! I wanted to search for the ring before more sledders arrived and the ring was pushed deeper into the muck.

The hill had three sides the couples used for sledding. Metal detecting up and down the slopes was challenging, and the cold wind was brutal. I could sense Eugenio’s despair that we might not find his ring. Finally, at the base of the last search area, I heard a beautiful sounding target with my Equinox 900. I scrapped down a couple of inches to confirm and then called Eugenio over to pick up his beautiful ring.

Found Here!

After the largest snow storm of the year dumped 6 inches of snow in Philadelphia this week…Adeep ventured out to have some fun in the deep snow drifts around his University City apartment. Unfortunately his Iphone slipped out of his pocket while playing around. His « find my iphone » app got him close to the location of the lost phone but it was clearly under the snow somewhere! He found me listed in the Ring Finders directory and several hours later I was there with my metal detector! He pointed out where he was fooling around in the snow….and where the « find my iphone » app was suggesting its location. Less than 10 minutes into search I got the signal I was looking for with my machine…moved aside about 8 inches of snow…and there was his iphone!!! Adeep was surprised and very happy that I was able to locate his lost phone so fast!


Received a Call yesterday afternoon from Keynan in regards to his girlfriend she lost her security keys in a snow covered parking lot, after asking Keynan my usual questions I agreed to meet up with his girlfriend at the parking lot.
I meet Kelsey at the parking lot she explained to me that she was walking out of the building toward her vehicle and when she got to her vehicle she reslized that her security keys had fallen off her lanyard somewhere in the parking lot, she and her friends spent a couple of hrs looking for them with no luck.
While I was talking to Keysey next to her vehicle from the corner of my eye I spotted just the tip of the a key protruding from the snow! Kelsey was relieved to have the keys back in her possession.
That was my quickest search ever I did not have to take my detector out of my vehical.
