Lost Titanium Wedding Band at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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

This ring find began as I was on my way home from Ko Olina and got a call from Brendon’s father, telling me his son had lost his Wedding Ring in shallow water at Aulani Beach.  They were on vacation from Connecticut and staying at the Aulani Resort.  I told him I would turn around and come back to recover the ring as I was only 15 minutes out.  When I arrived, I called and Brendon & his Mom & Dad said they would meet me on the beach, to show me the area to hunt.  It was a high tide and the lagoons are a bit rough this weekend.  I entered the water and started my grid search with the Manticore.  On about the fifth leg I got a nice loud tone and in one scoop there was a ring in the scoop.  I was thinking it would be silver so I yelled ashore, « Is it black? »  The response was a thrilling, « YES! »  Brendon was just recently married so the lost wedding ring conversation became unnecessary and the vacation was saved.  Aloha to Brendon and his family!

Woman’s White Gold Wedding Band Set Lost in the Surf, Found and Returned Garden City SC

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

On 8/16/25, just after 2:30 pm, I got a call from Welton saying his wife had lost her wedding band set in the surf while playing volleyball with their daughter. I asked him about what time, and he responded about 45 minutes ago. Looking at the tide tables, high tide was at 2:05 pm. I told him I’d be there at 4 pm, knowing I’d be in the surf working an outgoing tide.

I arrived just before 4 pm and met Welton in the parking lot of the condo they were staying in. As we walked out on the beach, I saw his wife Casey sitting in a beach chair staring into the surf. When I saw that, I knew I had to find her rings. I got a few more details from Casey and started a north/south gridline running parallel to the surf. I established the north and south border lines and was working the outgoing tide. After maybe 20 minutes and a little above my ankles deep, I hit it. It wasn’t a solid signal but enough to get my attention and make me dig. I had seen a picture of her ring and I made sure I was very careful with my scoop trying to get her ring out of the sand. Because of that, it took me a few extra scoops of sand to get the ring out. When I had it in the scoop and saw it, I reached down and pulled it out of the scoop. I looked at Casey and gave her a big smile, as if to let her know I had it. I also gave Welton and head nod to let him know. Casey didn’t move until I walked back towards her and held out the ring pinched between my fingers. When she saw her ring she was overwhelmed with emotion. Big hugs from Casey and Welton made it perfect.

Welton and Casey – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. Enjoy the rest of your vacation and have a very safe trip home.

iPhone Lost & Found Underwater by Rob Ellis, Virginia

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)
Contact:

Meaghan called me on July 4th and asked me to find her lost phone. She had been kayaking and was returning the rental to Penguin Paddling in Occoquan when her iPhone Pro Max slipped into the water. I quickly grabbed my SCUBA gear and hurried to the river.

Smiles!

Meaghan and her friend showed me where her phone dropped into the water. Unfortunately, due to earlier rain, visibility in the water was very poor. Additionally, phones sometimes plane as they sink, landing in a different spot than one might expect. I conducted an expanding spiral search in almost zero visibility for more than 40 minutes before finding Meghan’s phone.

Lost Rose Gold Ring Found in Clarkston Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

The Ranch…

…Was always one of Colin’s favorite places to work at. While just finishing up spreading some pine mulch he took a shortcut thru a corral and decided to jump over it. Landing awkwardly, he dusted himself off and headed to his vehicle and left for the day. After arriving home, he felt his ring missing. Quickly checking inside and outside the vehicle revealed no ring. Once on site we walked towards the corral only to find a bull roaming around where we needed to metal detect. I told him I didn’t bring a matador costume and asked if he had one to use while I metal detected. Laughingly he said no, but he would get someone to put the bull into another area for a few minutes. While the bull was being dealt with, I started to metal detect the area outside the corral, but no signals came thru. Entering the corral the restrained bull was watching us from afar, snorting, stomping its hooves and swinging its head around. Quickly grid searching I got a good solid signal, and my pin pointer metal detector narrowed it down. Moving some trampled dirt around revealed Colin’s stunning rose gold ring. With his back to me I yelled Charge! and as he whirled around thinking the bull got loose, he saw me holding up his ring and said… Now that’s really taking the bull by the horns! Ole!

Stamford Rings: Miracle recovery in the sand, August 2025

  • from Old Saybrook (Connecticut, United States)
Contact:

Susan and her son were spending a nice day at the beach and she took off her rings for safekeeping and placed them in her shirt pocket. Later in the day when leaving she went to put them ion while heading out and noticed her pockets were empty. She turned around and went right back to the beach which started a series of events. Her and her son started sifting the sand with a fishnet and her husband arrived and stayed until closing searching with a small detector.

They decided that outside help was needed and looked up @theringfinders.com and got my name. I cam the next morning and began my search in an area we had marked off. After gridding the area for a short time, I expanded the search a bit further and got my first solid hit and a platinum wedding band emerged from the sand and ringed with diamonds. Not the task was to find the second ring. After an extensive search in the immediate area there was no engagement ring to be found. We relived the previous day’s activities, simulating sitting in the beach chair and removing her shirt to see how a simulated ring would fall out.

I’ve now gone back three times and during the last attempt had the assistance of another detectorist and possible future ring finder and still the ring is not to be found. It’s very possible that it had been picked up. The couple purchased a detector and giving them a few tips they will continue the search. During the last search, she found a ladybug sitting on a shell and gave it to me for good luck. When I first met her, I had given her a St Anthony medal and in hopes that prayer and divine intervention would again help recover both rings. It was a miracle we found one and the other may require another miracle.

Ring found and return in Denver!!

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)
Contact:

Tom lost his ring in his yard over a month ago. He tried renting a detector but did not know how to use it to the best extent possible. It was a special ring and when his daughters found out they decided to buy him a new one while they were in Ireland. He still thought of that ring as special so he gave us a call. After talking to Tom about where he may have lost it in his backyard, I decided to search the whole perimeter. About halfway through the yard I found the ring not far from a tree. He was so happy to have his ring back and to have a new one from his daughters as well!

Received a call from Tom. He explained that his wife had dropped her diamond ring somewhere between the beach entrance and where they set up on the beach. Took the short ride over from home and met up with Tom at the entrance to Philadelphia beach. Tom led me from the entrance of the beach to where his party had set up their belongings for the day. I checked the path to their site while he directed me to it with a few coins found along the way. One reaching their site I met Toms wife Thanh and bean checking around their cabana. With the first swing I heard a familiar tone. One shallow scoop later I had Thanh’s ring in the scoop, much to the couples relief! Another happy couple!
Thanh’s review:
“While on vacation I lost my wedding ring at the beach in Cape May. 😥 I was DEVASTATED. My husband found Jeff through a quick google search and within 15 minutes of making contact, he was at our beach site and within 1 minute he said “don’t worry, I got it,” and found my ring!! It was incredible!!

Precious Engagement/Wedding Ring Found For Owner by Brian Tucholke, Old Silver Beach, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

12 August 2015.  Nickey was enjoying a day at the beach with her children, but she was devastated when she realized that her beautiful custom-made engagement & wedding ring was missing from her hand.  Fellow beach goers helped her search for it with no result.  Beach sand, whether dry, wet, or under water can hide a ring in an instant, and when the place of loss is not certain a tactile recovery or recovery by sieving becomes a nearly impossible task.

Fortunately beach staff knew about the Ring Finders and gave Nickey contact information.  She called Rick Browne, my friend and fellow Ring Finder in Yarmouth.  He was not able to come to Falmouth but referred her to me.  I was able to meet her at the beach within about 15 minutes.

Nickey outlined the area where she had been, in and out of the water.  The loss had been about 2 hours previously, fortunately at mid-tide on an outgoing tide.  She had been playing and tossing a ball in the water with her children, so that seemed to be the likely place the ring was lost, although it could also be in nearshore wet sand or in dry sand where they had been sitting.  I started the search in the water near the center of the likely area, doing swaths from the shoreline out across a trough and across a sand bar about 150′ offshore, then back in.

As my swaths approached the south edge of the area Nickey said she felt that she and her children had been playing farther north so I returned to the center and moved in that direction.  One swath out and then halfway back, on the sand bar, pure Magic!  As I scooped a nice crisp signal in calf-deep water I saw her beautiful ring slip over the tip of the scoop — it was only an inch or two into the sand — but with a quick second push I had it.  The sand quickly flowed through the holes in the scoop and I was left staring at nothing but a gorgeous diamond ring set, resting safely and sedately at the bottom.

I left the ring set in the scoop and headed in to shore.  As Nickey looked questioningly at me I held out the scoop.  She looked inside.  Well, words cannot begin to describe all the mixed emotions and tears that flooded forth, but it can safely be said that the encapsulated joy of those moments will never be forgotten.  Nickey called her husband Mike with the good news, and those who had helped in the earlier search joined in the celebration.  I was pleased to be able to meet Mike, who arrived from work a short time later.

What a great day!

Nickey’s beautiful engagement/wedding ring.

 

Nickey’s ring back where it belongs.

 

A very happy young lady!

 

There’s nothing like success!

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Lake Geneva, WI

Gold in the Lake

 

Another successful recovery!  This story happened three years ago, and there have been many exciting treasures unearthed since then, but I did not take the time to write this one down.  Simply put, David went for an afternoon swim, dove off the pier and his wedding ring slipped off and down to the sandy bottom.  Out of sight, but not out of mind.  

A call to The Ring Finders solved the problem.  I was able to dive with my new Nemo by Blu3 and find David’s ring.  The smiles tell the rest of the story.  What a joy to be part of The Ring Finders network of metal detecting recovery specialists!
