White Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Front Yard-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by a husband, (Ben), saying his wife lost her wedding ring in the front yard and that they had tried finding it with a metal detector, but had not located it. They had a very large front yard, but had marked off an area they thought it would be, because he had to run the mower. The area he thought it would be had not been cut. The temperatures those days were at the 95 degree range and I was in the full sun with no relief from any shade. The first day I spent around 4-5 hours finding nothing but surface items that sounded like a ring, small pieces of foil. I had completely covered the entire area he thought it would be. I was spent from the heat, so I came back the next day and expanded the search area. After around 4 hours I was well outside of the original search area by around 60 feet or so and I got a consistent 17 on my Manticore and it seemed to be on the surface because of the double beep. I had found it, but there was a problem. It was in the area that had been mowed and had been damaged from being run over with the mower tire. The band had been bent, had a small stone missing, and the main setting stone was loose. So as soon as I could I put it in a small zip lock bag so if anything else came loose it would not get lost.

How to find Lost Wedding Ring with a Metal Detector, Bay Head NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Pat sent me a text inquiring about recovering his lost wedding ring. He was on the beach the day before, and when they arrived home, he realized his wedding ring was missing. After going over the details, we decided I would head out right after work that day. He had some great photos that would zero me in on the spot they had set up their chairs that day. Pat was a few hours away, so we decided that the pictures and his friend’s information would be all I needed to put me on the right spot. Once I got to the beach, I headed to the area he said they were in, checked the pictures, and looked for some fixed objects his friend said he remembered seeing. Everything lined up so I began my search. After a few times back and forth, I noticed some signs of another detector being there, and my heart sank. Thats never a good thing to see while doing a recovery. Well, lucky for Pat, the other person was not to thorough, and within 10 minutes the ring was safely in my sand scoop. I took some pics and headed back to my truck. I transferred them to a text message, then called Pat. I told him I searched the entire area, and there were signs of another person in the area. You could tell by the tone in his voice, he was not happy to hear that, and then I sent pics and asked him to confirm they matched up to the location. The excitement in his voice when he saw his ring in those pics was priceless, I just wish I could have experienced that in person. We then made arrangements for him to swing by in a few days to pick up his ring.

James called me and asked if I could help him find a very special ring that he had given to his very special lady friend! As sometimes happens in life, people get upset about something that is said or done and we tend to react and say or do things that we later regret. (I thing we all have been there…right?). Well, this very special ring was thrown out of a truck window while sitting at a stop light. James immediately realized the severity of his action and he pulled into the gas station parking lot and began searching for the ring. It was a yellow gold ring with small diamonds and a very small size and even though the grass had been recently cut they could not find the lost thrown ring. James even got his own metal detector from home and they used it to search for a couple of hours but only found pull tabs and small pieces of aluminum. Then he found my number on line and we made arrangements to meet later on that same day. After showing me the 50 square foot area that he was « almost 100% sure » that was where the ring landed…I got my metal detector out and started to carefully grid search the small area. Along most all roads and sidewalks there is the usual trash items and this area was littered with small pieces of aluminum from the numerous soda cans that were shredded by the lawn mowers over the years. I went slowly and investigated each signal that sounded even close to what a small gold ring would respond like. After 20 minutes of careful searching I decided to expand the search area and about 10 feet further up the sidewalk I got a smooth, solid, repeatable signal that proved to be exactly what I was looking for! James was in tears when I handed him his ring and the relief and happiness were evident by his big smile!

How can I help you? Call or text me ASAP @ 321-363-6029 and let’s talk!

Lost Yellow Gold Sentimental Hawaiian Style Ring at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began when I got text from Rocky who is a Security Officer at 4 Seasons.  His daughter, Avhenlee, had lost his Sister in Law’s Gold Sentimental Hawaiian ring in Ulua Lagoon and he wanted to know my availability.  While we were talking his daughter had been texting me info about the lost ring.  I gave her a call and told her I would hunt first thing in the morning on the low tide.  The next morning after finishing a successful recovery at 4 Seasons, I headed to Ulua Lagoon.  I matched up the pics Avhenlee sent me and started the grid search.  On about the sixth leg I got a nice tone on the Manticore in about chest deep water.  After two scoops the Shiny Gold Hawaiian ring was in the scoop.  I went and cleaned up then called Avhenlee and told her the good news.  She just so happened to be dropping her father off at Aulani in a few minutes so we met there for the return.  When she arrived her bright smile was from ear to ear.  A hug & prayer was all that was needed then.  Aloha to Avhenlee!

Contact:

This Ring Find began when I got a call from 4 Seasons Front Desk, asking if I could find a guests « Expensive Ring » in the Lagoon.  I said « Of Course » and feel free to give them my number.  The resort gave me Joe’s number who was from Napa Valley, California and on vacation,  staying at the 4 Seasons resort.  I called Joe and he informed me his son had lost his Yellow Gold Cartier Love Ring in shallow water of the lagoon.  I asked if he could meet me at the next day’s morning low tide and he agreed.  When I arrived Joe was already on the beach waiting.  He marked off the grid lines and I began my search.  I found two silver earrings and a nice silver anchor pendant.  Then about 15 minutes into the hunt I got a nice low tone on the Manticore and in one scoop there was his son’s Cartier ring in the scoop.  By a stroke of luck Joe had just started filming me when the recovery occurred.  Son’s vacation saved!  Aloha to Joe for assisting!

Silver Promise Ring Lost in the Dry Sand, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

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

On 8/21/25 at 3:20 pm I received a text message from Nataly saying, “Hi! How much would you charge to find a ring? I’m at n Myrtle Beach.” I called Nataly at the number attached to the text and told her I do this on a reward/gratuity basis. I asked her the details of the loss, and she told me the ring had been put in a shirt pocket and then in a bag. At some point the shirt was taken out of the bag not knowing the ring was in the pocket. That’s when the ring fell into the soft sand and disappeared. At first, I thought she was in Myrtle Beach (because I didn’t see the small ‘n’) so I told her I could be there in 30-40 minutes. I asked her to send me the address and was out the door. When I got the text with the address, I called her to confirm it was in North Myrtle Beach, which she did. So, my drive time was down to 15 minutes.

When I arrived on the beach, I met Nataly (big sister to Rebekah) and Jondavid (gave the ring to Rebekah) under the umbrella, in the area where the ring was lost. I turned on my Equinox 800, took 2 steps and hit a solid 21 on the VDI (visual display indicator). Being a silver ring, I knew I had the ring. Took a couple of shallow scoops of sand, shook it out and saw the ring. I held the scoop up so Jondavid could reach in and grab the ring. Nataly told me that Rebekah was in the hotel pool, so I decided we walk up and surprise her. When we got to the pool, Nataly said to Rebekah, “Look at the ring I found.” Rebekah instantly knew her ring was found. Big smiles all around!

Nataly – Thank you for calling me and allowing me to help find Rebekah’s promise ring

24K Yellow Gold Wedding Band and 24K Yellow Gold Anniversary Ring Lost in the Surf, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

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

This adventure started on 8/18/25 at 11:31 am, and what an adventure it turned out to be. I received a text message from Heather saying, “Hi, looking for help. Lost my wedding ring and anniversary ring today.” I replied for her to call me and sent her my number. When she called, I asked her what time she lost it and where she was on the beach. She said she lost it about 45 minutes ago and she was sitting at the water’s edge. A quick check of the tide tables for North Myrtle Beach, and she lost it about an hour after low tide. I told her I was on my way, knowing that I missed my chance with the tide. I had little chance of finding her rings at that time, but it gave me a chance to see what I was up against. When I met Heather on the beach she showed me a picture of the rings. She stated the wedding band was yellow gold and about 3mm in width. The anniversary ring was thinner and had 5 diamonds on it, both rings were 24 Karat yellow gold. She pointed out where she had been sitting and mentioned she had moved a little south for a while and then back again. She also mentioned she had been knocked over by a wave. I tried doing an east west grid perpendicular to the surf but wasn’t making any progress. After maybe 45 minutes of getting pounded by the waves, getting my metal scoop slammed into my shin causing a cut, and getting knocked down twice. I decided now was not the right time! I told Heather I’d be back for the evening low tide which was just before 11 pm. On the way home I called my buddy Burwin to see if he was interested in a nighttime hunt. He jumped at the chance. Having someone to help on night hunts, helps with covering the area twice as quick. It’s also good to have someone watching your back, literally. Burwin and I hit the beach later that evening and the conditions were worse than earlier. We had no luck and called it a night after about 2 hours of searching. So, I already decided I’d be out the next morning an hour or so before low tide.

The next morning, I was getting ready to leave when I noticed I had a voice mail and text message from Katie H. Her text message read, “Hi Jim, My name is Katie H. and I’m a reporter with WBTW news 13. I just left you a voice mail trying to get in contact with you. We are hoping to do a story on you and your company and the recent ring you just found for a visiting couple in North Myrtle. I would love to shadow or follow you for a day and to interview you regarding your process and why you love to do what you do. If you’re able to speak today please text or call me back and even if that isn’t possible but you are available sometime this week, let me know that as well and we can set something up! Thank you! Kindest Regards, Katie H.” I called Katie back and she explained what she wanted to do. I told her, “it just so happens I’m on my way to a ring search and she was more than welcome to come along.” We agreed to meet at the location, and I was on my way. I got there before she did and started my east/west grid search. The sea and weather conditions were better, and I thought I’d have a much better chance of finding Heather’s 2 rings. When Katie showed up, I met her at the top of the slope, and she did my interview. When she finished, I told her how I do my searches and started an east/west grid from the high tide line to about knee to waist deep. On my second line and as Katie was recording, I hit a solid 14 on the VDI (visual display indicator). This is what I was looking for on a gold wedding band, but it’s also where pull tabs ring up as. I dug a scoop, shook the wet sand out of it and saw Heather’s gold wedding band. I pulled it out of the scoop and showed it to Katie. We walked up the beach so I could call Heather. When I called it went to voice mail, and I told Heather “I’ve got something for you.” Katie and I walked back down the beach to where I found the 1st ring, and in just a few more steps I hit Heather’s Anniversary ring. Katie and I walked back up the beach so I could call Heather again. This time Heather answered and said, “I’m right behind you.” I turned around and handed Heather her 2 rings and got the biggest bear hug. I told Heather who Katie was, and Heather agreed to being interviewed. This entire search, recovery and return couldn’t have gone any better. After Katie’s interview with Heather, I turned around to Katie and said something like, “This is why I do this.” Katie got the message! I’ll post the news story when I get it.

Katie – Thank you so much for the opportunity to show what it is I do and why.

Heather – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasures. It was great to get them back to you where they belong.

Wellfleet, MA Richard Browne Makes Short Work of Finding a Lost Ring.

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

August 19, 2025 Richard, a Horticulturist at heart, was doing what he loved to do. That was helping a friend out by doing some gardening, pruning and clean-up when what could happen, did happen his wedding band slipped from his finger. He had no memory of it coming off, it was just gone, somewhere in the yard.
Telling his wife was a bit stressful when done they returned to the property, with hopes of finding the ring. Not finding the ring, they turned to the internet to find someone that could help. That is when I got involved via a text message that read “Maybe you have availability this week? I answered by a phone call and set up a time for the next afternoon.
I am glad I had set it up for the afternoon as another call for help came to me to find a ring lost in a local swimming beach. I asked another Ring Finder to go along…two could find the ring twice as fast. Sure enough Leighton found the water ring in less than 5 minutes. All said and done we were off to search for Richard’s ring at 2:30.

We pulled into the driveway right at 2:30, what timing! Introductions and then a walk thru the area that should be holding the band that matched his wife’s band, but one with a bigger and with a looser fit. As always a Ring Finder is always alert to his surroundings. About 30 feet from my car and our detecting gear a bit of glitter caught my eye. UNBELIEVABLE! It was the ring. This was my first find without even taking my equipment out of the car.

Now it was up to Tobe to take the ring home and have it resized so Richard could wear it with a bit of confidence that he would not loose it again. This return will be in the memory of several people for a long time. I wish all searches were this easy. No, not really, if they were, my hobby would lose my interest in very little time. But on the other hand, it would be quicker outcome for those that had made the loss. In the end, it matters not who or when a lost object is found, but that it is returned to the rightful owner.
