Lost Cartier Juste un Clou bracelet

  • from Miami (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Did you just lose a ring or any other type of jewelry at the beach, in the sand, in the shallow water, or even in your backyard, then give me a call, louis at 305-608-1870. I have a Metal Detecting service with 15 yrs of experience and can come out and help you recover lost item.
In the photos above you can see another successful recovery of a beautiful gold and diamond Cartier bracelet (my second one in as many months).  The bracelet was a special gift and flew off her wrist while playing in the sand.  After many hours of her trying to look for it she came across my number/service.  When I got there she frantically walked me over to the area where she thought she lost it.  I made two passes and quickly found her bracelet.  She was in disbelief and so thankful.
So if anything like this has happened to you, don’t wait. Give me a call. Louis 305-608-1870

Lost Ring Returned. « Follow Your Dreams »

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Kim called me that she was on her patio with her ring off, her young son picked it up and threw it over the fence into the field behind.  » Aren`t  little boys wonderful?’  I respond right away and met her on the other side of her fence, wouldn`t you know there was a thorny bush at the location. Kim said she searched all around and it has to be in the bush. After 30 minutes of being scratched and beat up, and unable to swing my coil, plus the hot Okanagan climate, I advised her to have the bush cut back and we will try again. Laying in bed that night I thought about the Kim and her distress, so at 5am the next morning back I went to widen the search. 12 feet beyond the bush I retrieved Kim`s ring, that little boy has a strong arm.                                                                                              The ring has an inscription  » Be True to Your Dreams » how appropriate, that is what took me back.

Lost — Keepsake necklace with glass pendant, Daytona Beach — FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Mia had gone to the beach for a relaxing day, never imagining she’d lose one of her most treasured possessions—a necklace with a beautiful glass pendant. When she was just four years old, her mom bought matching pendants for herself and her two daughters during a magical family vacation to the Bahamas. Mia wore hers every day through elementary and middle school as a reminder of those special memories. At the beach, she placed the necklace in a bag on a blanket. When someone shook the blanket to remove the sand, the necklace was unknowingly tossed into the sand. She was heartbroken.

Mia posted on the Daytona Dig & Find Metal Detecting Club Facebook page, hoping someone could help. I headed out early Friday morning after texting her the night before to narrow down the search area.  As I drove, I prayed.  When I arrived, I powered up my Minelab Manticore and got to work.

I carefully searched where the cars park because Mia remembered the blanket was between them. I covered the upper, middle, and lower sections with no luck. Then I moved closer to the dunes—still nothing but trash. Just before calling it quits, I decided to search the driving lane. A strong signal… only a nickel. I prayed once more, swung the coil again, and another solid tone rang out. This time, it was Mia’s necklace!

Her dad, Mike, met me, and it was a joy to place that priceless treasure back into his hands. A cherished family memory had been restored. God is good!

Lost something important? Maybe I can help. I’m Ed Duffey, a Central Florida metal detecting specialist focused on recovering lost items. Whether it’s a ring, jewelry, keys, or even a phone, I search beaches, parks, yards, and shallow water—just about anywhere it might be hiding.

If it’s metal and it’s lost, there’s a good chance I can find it.

Yellow Gold St Luke Medal Lost in the Soft Sand, Found and Returned Sunset Beach NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

On June 26, 2026, just before 9:30 a.m. I received a call from Mark saying his son Luke had lost his Yellow Gold St Luke Medal and asked if I could help. He also said that Luke had been setting up cabanas on the beach and his gold chain clasp had broken sending the medal into the dry sand. Mark told me that he had been using a metal detector but wasn’t able to find it. I told him I’d be there in about 45 minutes and was on my way.

When I arrived, Mark had saved me a parking spot. He asked a cleaning crew that was cleaning out one of the rentals if we could park in the driveway and they agreed. Mark led me out on the beach and pointed out the two cabanas that Luke had set up. I turned the Equinox 800 on and worked the outside area first, then moved under the cabanas and hit a solid 13 on the VDI (visual display indicator) which could indicate a yellow gold piece of jewelry. I dug out a couple of scoops of sand, shook the scoop out and saw the medal. I reached in, grabbed it and handed it to a very happy Mark.

Mark, thank you for allowing me to help find Luke’s medal and get it back where it belongs.

Man’s Tungsten Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

This was my second call of the day on June 25, 2026, and it started with a text message. The text read, “Hi Jim. My name is Steven and I lost my wedding ring in the ocean behind Wyndham Resort yesterday in North Myrtle Beach during high tide. I was somewhere directly out from the lifeguard stand. It’s a black tungsten ring. So, you think you could help me out with that? We’re leaving tomorrow morning.” I was currently in the middle of another search so I couldn’t call him right away. When I completed that search, successfully, I called Steven and told him I could be there in about 30 minutes or so. I made the trip and found a place to park, almost impossible this time of the year. I called him and told him I was there and would be walking out on the beach very shortly. He said he was on the beach with his family near the lifeguard stand.

I made my way across the beach, dodging the tourist and found Steven. He showed me the general area he had lost it. He said he lost it about 1 to 2 p.m. which would have put it about mid-tide. I got there today just before mid-tide. I told Steven that I’d do what I could, but I may have to come back at low tide that evening. He put me to the right of the lifeguard stand as he pointed out his wife and 2 kids out in the surf. I noticed they were farther to the right and as he walked out into the surf, he too went right. I thought I’d go ahead and start farther right as well and eliminate that area. I got about thigh deep on my first grid line and hit a banging target. I was expecting a 15-17 on the VDI (visual display indicator) for a Tungsten ring, but this target was strong and everywhere from single digits to in the 20s on the VDI. I started digging and digging and digging some more. I had a heck of a time getting the target out of the sand. I even lost the target a couple of times as it got moved in the process. I finally got the target out of the hole and shook the sand out of the scoop. With all the shells, it was hard to see a ring. Finally with a little more shaking, I spotted a black tungsten ring in the bottom among the many shells. I walked out to Steven and asked him what his ring looked like, already knowing I had it. He told me again and I held out my hand to drop his ring in his hand. He tried it on and said, “That’s it”. Neither he nor his wife believed he got it back.

Steven – Thank you for calling me and allowing me to help find your lost treasure. Have a safe trip home and take care.

Black with Blue Sapphire Stone High School Class Ring Lost in the Wet to Dry Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

On Thursday, June 25, 2026, just before 8 a.m.  I received a message from Josie that said, “Hello, someone referred me to you to find my son’s high school ring, it fell in the shore waves yesterday right in front of the Bermuda Sands Resort. I was told if anyone can find is a black ring with a blue sapphire stone and has his name on it.” I didn’t see the message until a little after 10 and then messaged her to call me and added my phone number. Low tide was just before 11 a.m. so I had time to work the outgoing tide. I got a few more details, including that they were checking out at 11 a.m. from the resort. I asked her if she could meet me to show me the area and she agreed. I told her I’d be there a little after 11, grabbed my Equinox 800 and was on the road.

When I arrived, I met Josie on the beach, and she showed me where they had been sitting. I started an east/west grid search above the suspected spot and worked my way down the beach slope to the low tide line. I ran a north grid and wasn’t having any luck other than a little change. So, I went back to my starting point and ran a south grid. Probably about 5 lines south of the original spot I hit a solid 5 on the VDI (visual display indicator). Josie wasn’t sure what metal the ring was, but when I’m doing a ring search, I dig everything even though I know what it is. One shallow scoop of sand and I had the target in my scoop. I shook out the sand and looked in and saw her son, Kabriel’s ring lying in the bottom of the scoop.   Bingo!! I held the ring up so Josie knew I found it and she came running! She was very excited and so relieved. I’m sure it’s going to be a much more pleasant 4 plus hour drive home.

Josie – Thank you so much for trusting me to help find your son’s very special HS ring and get it back where it belongs! I wish you all the best.

Lost Gold Medallion Cameron, MO

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

Brandon had that sinkin’ feeling in his gut when he noticed his gold chain laying on the floorboard of the crane he was operating.

Brandon is a crane operator and at this site his crew was assembling a wind turbine in a rural Missouri beanfield.  The chain had broken and even though he had the chain back, his crane medallion was nowhere to be found.  Ringfinders to the rescue!

Nearly an hour into the search I heard that lovely low tone of a possible gold target.  Wasn’t long before Brandon had his 14K gold medallion back in his hand.  Man, I love this treasure hunting and the rewarding challenges that Ringfinders brings my way!!

Man’s 14K Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

On Sunday, June 21, 2026 (Father’s Day), I got a text message just before 5 p.m. saying in part, “Hi Jim, this is Nathan. I lost my wedding ring at the beach yesterday and learned today that you find wedding rings. I was wondering if you are able to search for it. I know the approximate area it fell off my hand during high tide. It was in front of the Island Vista Condos and the ring has an inscription in it. Thank you for your time, and if you’re busy no stress. Its life, it happens and I know this is a long shot.” He also sent a picture of both the area and his ring. I immediately called him to get more details. He said he had been swimming in the ocean and as he moved his left arm to take a stoke, he felt his ring come off. I asked about what time and whether he was swimming towards or away from shore, he stated away. The time coincided with close to high tide, which he said, and he also stated he was about chest deep. Low tide was coming up so I told him I’d come and see what I could do.

He and his wife Abbey had already checked out of the resort that day. So, when I got there, I used the picture he sent to get an idea where I needed to search. I also face timed him to double check where I needed to be. At some point before they checked out, he had built up some sand mounds. He lined me up with a house on the beach and the mounds and gave me a good starting point. Knowing he lost it at high tide meant I didn’t have to get soaked. I still ventured out to about waist deep on my grid search. I started on the north end of the house and his sand mounds and worked south. When I made my turn on the far south end of the house, I hit a solid 17 on the VDI (visual display indicator), exactly the number I was looking for. I dug a couple of scoops, laid it out on the beach; spread the sand out with my foot and BINGO! I saw his ring lying in the sand. Cleaned the sand off, found a shell and took a picture. I sent him the picture and called him. He was so excited he had a hard time talking. Luckily, they were still in the area and having a Father’s Day Dinner with Abbey’s parents. They were just finishing up and would come back to get the ring. I was standing next to the car when they pulled up, stopped and got out of the car. Nathan was still excited and shocked to get his ring back. Great couple with matching wedding bands back where they belong!

Nathan and Abbey – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. Take care of yourselves and each other and the very best of wishes.

Jim
