This is the story of how two lost rings were recovered and returned to the owner thanks to three of us detectorist working together to find them. Paulie who started the search and how David and myself became involved to make this recovery possible. This is the words best describing the search by Paulie.

RINGS FOUND: Sorry it’s taken me a couple of days to get this story out..Not sure how to begin but as you can see from this post is how it pretty much began..I set out on Tues after work in search of these 2 missing rings..I had messaged Eva Pecora and asked her where she thought she lost them and started there.I made a grid pattern making sure to cover most of the area for about an hour with no luck..While I was searching I noticed a fellow detectorist coming up the beach it was Michael Gaskin a fellow I’ve talked to before..he had asked what I was up to told him what I was looking for and he decided to help me for a bit..I had started to wander away from him when all the sudden out of nowhere he asked about the gold ring did it have an emerald surrounded by 6 diamonds??? Wait what!?!? How did he know exactly what the ring looked like?? He had talked to another guy about a 1/2 hr before he saw me and the guy had found the gold ring the day before and was telling Michael about it(what are the chances)We immediately went to my car to get my phone and look at the picture..He said yep that’s it we have to find him..we never did but knew we had the gold ring found!!I contacted Eva and let her know what was up and that we were going to find the guy with her ring no matter what..I went home Mike stayed the night to look for the silver ring low and behold he ended up finding it at about 4am the next morning about a 1/10 of a mile away from where it was lost(incredible) he sent me the pic! That morning I texted Eva and told here about the Silver ring and put her in touch with Mike…that day Wednesday Mike stayed around to look for the guy with the Gold ring I was joining him after work to help search for him…I went one way Mike went the other in about an hour Mike found him and informed him of the situation regarding the ring he found..he was reluctant at first I don’t blame him but with a picture and the owner on the phone it was a giveaway that it was indeed the ring..45 minutes later Mike was on his way to pick up the ring..That night Mike drove the rings to Eva in Raleigh and he went home to HallsBoro sp?? I also would like to add that Eva received her lost rings that were passed down by her grandfather on his Birthday…♥️

Lost Diamond Ring, Wildwood, New Jersey, RECOVERED!

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:
Last evening I received a call from Eric and Kristin. The couple explained that they believe that Kristin’s wedding ring had fallen out of her bag while they were at the beach yesterday. The couple wasn’t exactly sure as to when the ring fell out but the were fairly certain that it happened while they were on the beach and it may have tumbled out when they removed their cell phone from the bag that the ring was stored in. I met up with the couple this morning. After being shown the general area I managed to recover the ring in about 25 minutes. They were ecstatic as this ring had been passed down thru the family for several generations. #lostring, #wildwood, #lostringandjewelryrecoveryservice, #jerseyshore, #capemaynj, #capemaycounty, #lostandfound, #wildwoodcrest, #weddingrings, #theringfinders

Lost Ring, Cape May, New Jersey, RECOVERED!

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)

I was tagged in a post in a few local groups last evening regarding someone looking for assistance with recovering a lost ring on the beach in Cape May. I messaged Emily whom explained that her father lost his ring, at some point, on Grant St beach earlier in the day. Emily passed me onto her mother whom reached out this morning. After gathering some details we agreed on a time to meet. Took the short ride, from home, over and met up with the entire family. They weren’t exactly sure when or how the ring came to be lost but they were fairly sure as to where they had been sitting. I turned on my detector and literally had the ring in the first sweep, less than 3 minutes. Another happy family! #lostringandjewelryrecoveryservice, #capemaynj, #jerseyshore, #weddingrings, #lostring, #capemaycounty, #lostandfound, #CoolCapeMay, #coolercapemay, #theringfindersnj, #theringfindersnewjersey, #jerseyshore, #capemaynewjersey

Received a call yesterday afternoon from Pat. Pat explained that while playing volleyball with friends on the beach in North Wildwood his wedding band had fallen off and into the sand. We arranged to meet up this morning as I was on duty yesterday. We met up this morning and after about 20 minutes of checking the volley ball court the 14kt ring was recovered. Another happy ending.

Carlsbad San Diego Lost & found gold ring using metal detector equipment.Call now; 760 889 2751 CURTIS COX..Member of The Ring Finders

This precious gold ring was lost in the beach sand at Carlsbad Ca. during this summertime of 2022.  I was called by a relative of 12-20 family members vacationing at the beach regarding of a young lady’s special ring that fell into the sand and had all spent hours searching for it to no avail…They even bought a metal detector from some nearby store with no luck either…!

Fortunately my story’s posted online of over 100 successful returns helped as I was found on google & Was able to unearth this sentimental ring in a few minutes after conducting the search,,Not to mention the measly 2 mile drive nearby!

  

The sound of Cheers,Tears, & Relief was roaring indescribably from the sands above. Words aren’t enough. This great family was already to head back home when I showed up immediately to save the day. 

”It’s all about timing they say,,,”Who ya gonna call” 760 889 2751

Black Diamonds ARE Forever. Lost,Cape Cod,Found,Returned, Yarmouth Beach

Contact:

A call came in yesterday, to help find a Wedding Band that was lost the day prior in waste deep water. Rick called and asked if I wanted to go, I said he was on his own for this one, that I had a few things to do. I thought about how vast the area was, so I called back, and said I’ll meet him at his house ASAP. We met Stephanie and Chris at the beach lot about an hour later. They seemed real precise as to where they thought it to be. They walked out ahead of us, as we got ready for the search. Rick and I walked out about a mile onto the sand, then into waste deep water. We both searched for quite some time with no luck two junk targets a bullet and a penny.

I asked Chris to regroup, and stand where he thought it was, he was having second thoughts, he moved about 150 feet over.  Again Rick and I searched, and searched, still nothing. I then asked Stephanie where she thought it was lost, and to go over and stand there, so I could start my search over. Rick was still out far and walking away from Chris with no targets at all. I headed towards Stephanie, as I approached her, I said  » I just don’t get it, I just don’t get it. Not a signal in that whole area, even after an hour, it’s crazy. I told her not to give up till she sees us walking toward the truck. That if it was there and I went over it that I would hear it. I think Chris and Stephanie were about to throw in the beach towel, but as I walked by her, finally a very loud signal 4 feet away from where she was standing in the water. I looked over to her and smiled, Her eyes got huge, her smile even bigger, she had a hard time controlling her emotions. Stephanie knew, I had just recovered what they both thought was lost forever, King Neptune finally gave in to me. Stephanie was shaking, I’m not sure if it was from the cold, or from being excited. She yelled over to Chris, he started to run fast as he could in the water, I yelled faster, faster, he couldn’t get there fast enough to see what the commotion was all about. Rick knew already I had just found Chris’s  beautiful 14K white gold wedding band, with black diamonds set into the center. I handed it over to Chris as he teared up also. So gratifying to see it back on his finger.

Lot’s of congratulations and hand shakes went around, Chris kept repeating he just couldn’t believe we did what we said we would do. Great team work is always a plus. Thanks again to Rick for the invite. Now I will say it myself. Congratulations Chris and Stephanie on your return. Thank You for getting in touch with Rick & myself.

14K white Gold Black Diamonds

Underwater Metal Detector finds 2 rings in Naramata

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

My 3rd lost ring call of the day came at dinner time from Tyler in Naramata to tell me that his wife had lost her wedding ring in the Lake. I was going to respond the next day, but went right after dinner. After an 80 minute drive, Tyler showed me the location of the missing ring, after 5 minutes I had a diamond ring in my scoop, he said that`s her engagemant ring, her wedding ring is still there. Another 15 minutes and we had them both, much to the delight of all the people in the resort who had initially helped to search for the rings, so it was cheers and high fives all round which brought Tyler`s wife to tears.

Lost Cell Phone Returned to Owner at Bayview Beach, Dennis, MA

August 20, 2022
I was called to find a bracelet but as I was searching, I was asked “Had I found the phone? What? No, I was looking for a bracelet. I saw disappointment in the inquisitive face. I could not let it go, I said where was it lost and was it waterproof? Here and yes, it was waterproof. OK, I will search for both.

After about two hours of searching and finding only two beer bottle twist off caps and two pull tabs I was beginning to think there may be something wrong with my detector. No, it was just that the beach was heavily detected, and all good targets had been removed. Then my ears began to ring with a sound like I had just swung the detector’s coil over a large beer can. But I had to scoop carefully just in case it was a precious object. Yes, it was the yellow phone. Mike came over to me and in disbelief said: “It is still working!”

A couple of quick Thank Yous and he was off toward the shoreline. I continued to search for the Bracelet. A few minutes later Mike and his niece Pina came back into the water and thanked me again.
I had no means of taking any information so I asked if they would please text me with the information I needed for this blog. It is so wonderful that I get to see many smiling faces and hear cheers form the beach goers when I get to return a precious item and in this case an item filled with many photo memories, ones that could not be replaced.

Unfortunately, I have not yet found the bracelet that I had initially been called to help find. I had stayed well after dark on Saturday and returned Sunday morning for another two-hour search. I will return mid-week and expand the area of search. It is not time to give up hope, there are other detectorists I will keep in touch with as one might just find the bracelet before I do. Until then I will keep Pina’s smile in my phone and perhaps it will bring a bit of good luck for me to locate the bracelet.

Mike: thanks for not giving up on your family’s and your searching efforts. Had you left without giving me your contact information, I may not have been able to unlock the phone and retrieve information that would have led to Pina. And I would not have a wonderful smile to remind me of her hope to have her phone returned.
