Lost a ring? Don’t wait to call! 215-850-0188
I received a text message from Sydney asking for help. She lost her custom made Penn State University Graduation Ring. The ring was lost in the ocean while tossing a football it slipped off her finger. The search started at the waters edge and up the beach to the tide line. Where the ring was found.
Here is a video interview about one of my latest recoveries.
Received a text message from Heather and Steve about him loosing his Gold and Palladium wedding band at Cherry Beach resort in Prince Edward County. Unfortunately, neither of them could be on site to meet me but through the magic of Google Earth and a detailed phone call, I was able to locate the ring for them and leave it with thrusted friends for when they made it back to the cottage. Another search that ends well.
Received a text message from Steve late last Wednesday evening about him loosing his white and yellow gold wedding band at Lakeshore beach in Sandbanks while on vacation. He wasn’t quite sure if he had lost the ring on the beach or while tossing a football with his friends in about 2 1/2 feet of water. After a quick preliminary check around the picnic table they were at, it was time to change into water gear and grab my other metal detector and head into the water as it was nearly dark outside. 20 minutes later or so, found his ring and proceeded to walk back to the picnic table where Steve was anxiously waiting. I mentioned to him that I was tired, as I had spent over 4 hours in the water, searching for another ring prior to arriving for his search but reassured him that I should be able to easily find it for him in the morning. I asked him again what his ring looked like and he mentioned, while looking at my ring, that they were very similar. As he said that, I pulled out his ring, placed it next to mine and said that they do look very similar. His surprise and shock that we were able to find his ring, especially this late in the evening and wavy conditions, was priceless. Another happy recovery.
While out water detecting at North beach Provincial park, I received a call from Marian, saying how her husband, Remon, had just lost his gold wedding band while about 4 feet deep and tossing a football around with his kids. They were down on vacation from Quebec and headed back home tomorrow. So I quickly packed up and headed over to Sandbanks to meet up with them. After quick intro, I asked Remon to come in the water with me and stand where he thought he lost his ring. After a few minutes, as I was gridding the area with my water metal detector, his family signalled him from shore, telling him that he should move more to his left, just as I was getting a strong signal with my detector. Using my water scoop, I scooped up the target and there was his ring in the basket. I looked at him and told that we shouldn’t move, as he had put us 3 feet away from where he had dropped it, and proceeded to showed him the ring in the scoop. He was very excited but not as happy as Marian was when we reached the shore and he showed her his beautiful wedding ring. Another happy ending.
Lucinda called me for help with finding her ring, a family heirloom. The beautiful diamond ring was a gift from her mom, who received the ring as a gift from her grandfather when she turned sixteen. Lucinda was very upset that she had lost the ring while weeding her garden. She and her husband looked for the ring and even bought a metal detector, without any success. That’s when they searched the internet for help and found TheRingFinders website. I searched the yard, garden, and pile of brush but didn’t locate the ring. Behind the pile of brush, there were bushes. After searching under the bushes, I decided to shake them. That’s when I saw something fall and discovered that it was the ring. Lucinda and her husband couldn’t believe it. She hugged me. They were so thankful that I could help return this precious item to them!
I received a call for help from Jessika, who had lost her engagement ring while doing yard work. Jessika told me that she and her fiance Kevin tried to find the ring, but after two days they still hadn’t found it. They even bought a metal detector and still had no luck finding the ring . That’s when they decided to search the internet for help. They found TheRingFinders website and decided to call me. Kevin showed me the areas where they thought it could be, and I started my search. In about twenty minutes, I found the ring. As you can see, Kevin was very happy the ring was found and couldn’t wait to tell Jessika, who was at work. When he called her, I could hear her excitement. She couldn’t believe that I found her ring .

Metal Detectorist Helps Beachgoers Find Lost Rings
Met Pam over Facebook yesterday due to her having lost her wedding ring while at Buffler’s beach near Pickering Ontario. While tossing a ball back and forth with her husband, while in the water, her ring fell off her finger and sank straight for the bottom. With water visibility being extremely poor, they weren’t able to locate the ring. Unfortunately, Pam and her husband had to work today and could not accompany me to the beach. However, with the help of Google Earth and a couple of video calls while at the beach, I was able to narrow down the search area and after a couple hours, found her beautiful ring. I was a bit worried, due to other metal detectorists, since the ring went missing on Saturday, and had been in the water for a couple days. Pam and her husband were extremely happy and so was I to reunite them with her wedding ring.
Red, White and BOOM!…..
…..Going into her 2nd week of marriage, Amanda’s 2 rings came off while at a fireworks display. She recalled carrying coolers, food and beverages up and down some stairs. Early today they located the smaller of the 2 rings but couldn’t find the larger ring. Feeling red with anger, white with fear and blue of not seeing the ring again I told her on the phone I was up for some high flying fun of a search. Scanning the land that I love, the metal detector rang out with the sound of freedom. When I reached down in the grass, something was sparkling so bright I thought it was a firework… but it was her wedding ring! When she came to the spot and saw her ring, her smile was indeed as bright as fireworks as she displayed her excitement with indepen-dance! We soared high on the great feeling of matching the spirit of the holiday by bringing freedom back to the ring and were thankful we live in the U.S. of Yay! As I departed with a piece of pie on this great 4th of July I said, Keep calm and sparkle on!
