How to find lost rings in the grass with a metal detector, Ocala Florida!

This search and recovery came to me as a result of a family dispute. Sometimes rings, phones, key fobs and other items are deliberately thrown and most often we are called to come out and try to help locate these thrown items for either the one who threw them or for someone else who has a vested interest…say like a husband or wife, or a boyfriend or…I think you get the idea!

Andi called me and explained that she needed help finding her engagement and wedding rings somewhere in their yard. Apparently she had gone out and rented a metal detector and tried using it for an hour or two and ended up digging a bunch of holes plus her husband had spent 3 hours searching the yard as well and …Nothing! When I arrived the next day I got my Deus 2 metal detector and started doing my usual overlapping grid search of the area where Andi said she threw her rings. There were holes here and there and pull tabs and bits of aluminum scattered every where. Experience has taught me that most often items originally are thrown harder, further and with more intensity than one might think. And this proved true in Andi’s situation. At least 45 feet out I got a good repeatable signal reading « 49 » and then about two feet away another similar signal! I called Andi out and as I showed her what I found she just buried her face in her hands and quietly wept. The relief and consolation and comfort overwhelmed her heart and it was a thrill to see.

A Recent Wedding Ring Recovery at Mountain View Elementary in Goleta.
Late Saturday night, Jaime from Goleta texted Dave about her husband Chris’s newly purchased wedding ring, lost during a touch football game at Mountain View Elementary School. Chris explained that while defending a pass, he threw his left hand up, and his ring flew off somewhere on the field. He had a general idea of the area, so Dave began gridding the grassy field at Mountain View Elementary in Goleta on Sunday morning. After an hour of searching with no luck, Chris had to leave for church with his family at 9 a.m. They prayed together, and Dave, a dedicated member of The RingFinders, stayed behind, determined to find the ring. Expanding the grid 25 yards beyond Chris’s estimated spot, Dave’s Minelab Manticore picked up a double blip. Peering into the grass, he spotted the ring!

She had lost her platinum wedding band at Girsh Park in Goleta during her daughter’s soccer game.

Lost wedding ring in Hart Springs, Bell, Florida found by Florida ring finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Alexis and her husband were enjoying a fun day at Hart Springs and after jumping off of the high platform two times he realized that he still had his wedding ring on and it was feeling just a bit loose. Alexis was standing behind the railing by the edge of the jumping platform when he removed his wedding ring and handed it to Alexis for safe keeping and she slid it onto her index finger thinking it would be fine. But her husband thought it needed to be put on her middle finger so as she attempted to remove his ring from her index finger it all of a sudden popped off and dropped into the water below sinking straight way to the bottom of the spring. Alexis and her husband were stunned and after a few minutes they attempted to dive down and retrieve their now « lost ring »! It was close to 14 feet deep and their attempts were futile which made the situation even more intense…especially since they were just married not even two months ago! Alexis went online and found theringfinders.com and in the « Directory » noticed that there was no one else closer to Hart Springs that could help her and figured that maybe I could…being as I was scuba certified and in the Orlando area…145 miles away!! But when Alexis told me what happened and described how they saw exactly where the ring hit the water…I knew that there was a very, very high likelihood of being able to recover it and so we made plans to meet the next day. My dear wife accompanied me early the next morning and two and a half hours later and in a slight drizzle we met Alexis and she showed us the platform and it didn’t take me long to set up my scuba tank, 50 foot hose and diving gear and down into the water I went. I carefully grid searched a 10X20 foot area and found two rings and other items and thankfully one of the rings was Alexis’s husbands ring and to say she was relieved and thrilled…was a bit of an under statement! Come to find out Alexis’s husbands birthday was on this very day and she wanted to be able to surprise him with his « lost » ring and she told me later that it was amazing! How I thank God for allowing me to be used to be a help and a blessing to this dear young couple!

Washington,Missouri Soccer Field

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

WASHINGTON,MO

 

While watching my oldest daughter at soccer practice, my two year old ran towards her on the field; to avoid her being trampled by enthusiastic players, I picked her up. I instantly notice my rose gold wedding band slip off my finger. Within minutes, the whole team, the coach, and a group of helpful parents search the area. After an hour of searching, we gave up. The next morning, I purchased my own metal detector and searched the area for hours with no luck. I found Jeremy on the ring finder website, and he was confident he could find it. After searching the soccer field for a while, he was able to find my ring!9

North Wildwood NJ Lost Bracelet Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)

Lost Gold Bracelet Found in North Wildwood Garden!

Kate was gardening in North Wildwood, NJ when something unfortunate happened — she lost her beloved gold bracelet. She searched the area carefully but had no luck finding it. Feeling frustrated and disappointed, she remembered hearing about the Ring Finders South Jersey.

That’s when she contacted me — her local North Wildwood ring finder.

I answered her call right away and asked a few key questions about where she thought she lost it. Kate explained she had been moving plants and spreading mulch when she noticed the bracelet was gone.

Luckily, I was nearby and told her I’d be there in 10 minutes. I grabbed my metal detector and headed over.

When I arrived, we walked around the yard. Kate pointed out a grassy area and the garden where she had been working. I began searching the grass first. After a few passes, the detector stayed silent. No signals there.

Then I moved to the garden bed where Kate had spent some of her time that morning. Almost instantly, my metal detector gave off the sound I had been listening for!

I carefully dug into the soil, pushing aside the fresh mulch. About five inches down, I spotted a glimmer of gold — the bracelet was found!

Kate was so relieved. She said, “Thank you for finding the bracelet, it is very special to me!” Hearing that made my day.

She explained that it must have slipped off while she was moving soil and plants. The bracelet had great sentimental value, and she thought it was gone forever. But thanks to the Ring Finders South Jersey and a fast response, she had it back in no time.

It was an awesome day in North Wildwood, NJ — one that ended with a happy reunion between Kate and her lost jewelry.

If you ever lose something valuable outdoors in Cape May, Wildwood Crest, Wildwood, Avalon, Stone Harbor, Sea Isle City, don’t panic. Contact your local North Wildwood ring finder. We’re trained to recover lost jewelry, keys, and other metal items using professional equipment.

Found Graduation Ring

  • from Baton Rouge (Louisiana, United States)

I was contacted by Khamren Friday afternoon, 26 September 2025 regarding his graduation ring that was lost some two weeks prior. I agreed to meet him at the location of the lost ring the following day at 2:00 PM.  Khamren explained he and his girlfriend were walking along the sidewalk and he was swinging his arm when his ring flew off his hand into a row of ground cover vines. He searched the area, but could not locate the ring. His girlfriend trimmed the area with some clippers and continued the search, but still to no avail.  Khamren also rented a Garrett Ace 400 detector and after searching the area was only able to find a metal spoon and a chime from a small wind chime that had fallen to the ground.

I arrived at the location of the lost ring at the agreed time.  Khamren met me at the site and pointed out the general location where he thought the ring might be. He told me he had to leave for work and if the ring was found, to let him know and to give the  ring to his girlfriend who was inside.

I set up my search areas and methodically searched each area.  I got a hit in my third search area. Based on the readings from my detector, I didn’t think it would be the ring, but because there was a strong signal near the surface, I decided to try.  It took awhile to sort through the roots and thatch and using my soft probe rather than shovel (to avoid damage to the ring) I was able to locate the target.  The target turned out to be a galvanized roofing tack.  The search continued.

I moved to the next search area, and got another strong surface hit.  This time with numbers more to my liking. Using my hands to work my way through the roots, I saw something shining through the roots.  I was able to isolate the object and at 2:45 PM, the ring was recovered.

I took a pic of the ring and sent it Khamren who excitedly texted back with a big « Thank Y0u! »  I then knocked on the door and presented his girlfriend with the ring who returned the gesture with a big smile and another « Thank You ».

It made my day!

Timely Metal-Detecting Recovery of 2-Week-Old Wedding Ring, Bristol Beach, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

27 September 2025.  Ryan’s bright new wedding ring disappeared into the Bristol Beach sand on this warm sunny day.  Ryan was manipulating a beach chair when his hand was pinched, and his natural reaction was to violently shake his left hand.  Unfortunately that propelled his ring off his finger and sent it flying somewhere into the soft sand.

Not knowing where the ring might have ended up, it would have been fruitless to try randomly sifting through the sand, so Ryan’s bride Alyssa searched online for help.  She found my RingFinder detecting service on the Fabulous Falmouth Facebook page and Ryan gave me a call.  I was happy to take a break from yard work and I arrived at the beach in about 20 minutes to do a search.

It didn’t take long.  I asked them to move their beach chairs and other gear away from the search area so I wouldn’t be hindered by stray metal signals, and within a short time I picked up that sweet signal I was looking for and had Ryan’s ring in my scoop.  It was close to where a chair had been and had not gone far when it flew off Ryan’s hand.  Fortunate!

Congratulations to Ryan and Alyssa on their marriage.  I’m happy to know that I was able to help them start off on a positive note.  It’s a good omen for the future!

Ryan’s shiny new wedding ring.

 

Happy newlyweds!
