: A Beachside Miracle: Recovering Chris’s Lost Wedding Ring at Oxnard Shores
Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery at Oxnard & Ventura Beaches
Sunday morning’s calm church service was interrupted by Chris’s urgent call: his wife’s wedding ring had vanished into the sand at Oxnard Beach during a family outing. Sunscreen chaos and playful kids—a recipe for loss I’ve seen from Ventura State Beaches to Mandalay Beach—sent it astray. As Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, I promised fast lost ring recovery in Ventura and Oxnard beach areas and raced to meet them.
At Oxnard Beach, waves crashed and families laughed across a vast sandy stretch. With Chris’s rough location in mind, I deployed my Minelab Equinox 800, a trusty tool for Silverstrand Beach and Hollywood Beach recoveries. Sifting through bottle caps and debris—common at Port Hueneme Beach—I shifted spots. Then, a clear tone sang out near Mandalay Beach-like dunes. Three scoops later, I unearthed the ring, gleaming in the sun—a win for lost ring recovery in Ventura and Oxnard.
Chris’s family rejoiced under the golden glow, their love restored. This is why I serve the beach areas of Ventura and Oxnard.

Oceanside metal detector found lost gold diamond ring at the beach in San Diego
The Ring Finders Metal Detector service helped find a lost Gold wedding band at Oceanside beach San Diego Ca. Call 760 889 2751
This wedding ring story started off over 20 years ago when Vlad & his wife got married. But it nearly ended when he was boogie boarding out in the surf and noticed his wedding ring slipped off. This so happened to be their 23rd anniversary day they were celebrating while vacationing here in Oceanside for a short time.
2 Mornings later, Vlad called me after finding my info online asking if I could help. After a few Q’s & concerns I was able to meet him there right away. He showed me the area in the surf but unfortunately there were 2 detectorist’s already there that he told about and the tide was coming up fast compromising the search zone as well. After an hour swinging in & out of the surf with no luck, I knew the best time to find his ring would be the -1.4 low tide at 4:00am the next morning. So I assured Vlad & his wife that I would come back to continue the search for them as they had to head back home in a few hours.
Upon arrival to the scene of the lost ring before any other metal detecting guys showed up,, I was glad to see how far out the tide was already. The boogie boarding/swimming zone area days before was bone dry now. I knew if it was there, I would find it.
Over an hour later and 3 junk rings that never excites me, I received a signal on my metal detector that finally did…A holy one,,An unmistakable tone or beep.. Then out of the 6-10” deep hole came glistening a hefty 18k gold diamond ring. Sure enough it was Vlad’s precious gold wedding ring found that morning 3 days later. I even mailed it back to him the same afternoon. You can only imagine how relieved they were and that I could help them find what they thought could be lost forever. The story of his ring can now live on.

Jonathan was having fun playing Frisbee fetch with his dog in the field behind his home. When he went back into the house, he realized the ring he inherited from his grandfather was missing. He immediately retraced his steps and visually searched the field. Then he obtained a metal detector and searched again, but there was too much EMF interference and too many targets. While researching how to find a ring, Jonathan read an old post on Redit recommending The Ring Finders. He contacted my friend Ray Jones (571-258-7217), but Ray knew he would be delayed, so he asked me to take over.
100×50 area
The next morning I made the 30 minute drive and met Jonathan. We walked the field and he showed me where he was throwing and walking. Jonathan was very helpful in defining the boundaries of activity and explaining how the ring might have come off. I set-up my search grid lines and started sweeping the area. After covering the field where Jonathan was throwing, I expanded to where he had picked-up his dogs waste. I heard the detectors signal saw the lovely ring at the same moment. There it was, sitting on a patch of dead grass. We had both walked over the spot, but never saw the ring. I marked the location and texted Jonathan “I found it!” As we walked over, he and I both remarked how easy it was to see…when you knew where to look!

About a month and a half ago I received a call from Abby. It seems she had lost her wedding ring on a farm where she grows flowers for market. She believed it happened when she was stung by a bee, began removing her clothes, and running through the flower patch. She and her husband had purchased a metal detector, and had searched for the ring to no avail. We arranged to meet the next day for a search.
When I got to the farm, I let Abby know I was there. She came right by, and took me out to the area she thought the loss most likely happened. When we got there, I was looking at 4 rows of flowers at least 200 feet long, with flowers at about 5 feet tall and having very stiff shafts; I knew I was in for a tough search. I would search the furrow with my coil, and then work around the base of the flowers with my pin pointer, working down each 200 foot row. I was VERY happy that there was very little metal in the ground which would have slowed me down considerably. After a couple of hours I had completed the search as best as I could with no ring. Abby then took me over to another area she been that day, I searched 3 more rows flowers at about 150 feet, no ring. We went and looked in another area, but no ring. We then talked and she said that the flowers would be cut in a month or so, and asked if I would be willing to come out again, and If it would be easier if they were cut down; I said I would be willing and it would be easier.
So this week Chris, Abby’s husband called to let me know the flowers had been cut, and wondered if I would want to come out and go over the areas again, so we arranged the next day to do the search. Chris and Abby met me and we went and searched 3 more new rows of flowers (I had not searched the last time) she had remembered going through the day she lost her ring; no ring. I then searched one of the previous areas finding some aluminum and pot metal; no ring. We then went over to the 200 foot rows where the bee had stung her, and searched very slow and deliberate. I found a good signal, dug in, and came up with a wad of tin foil. When Abby saw the shiny metal she came running over to only be disheartened finding out the find was tin foil. We were running out of possibilities. She showed me another spot near the flower rows, and then another, but no ring. She then asked if I would be willing to try one more spot she remembered being that day, and I told her she had me there, so she needed to take advantage of that, and YES I would search one more spot for her!
We went over to the other area which was a parking area near my second search of the day, and it was covered with a thick layer of wood chips. She gave me an estimated area to search, and I began a grid. Down, back, down, back, turn, and BAM, a real solid signal in the head phones. I put in the pin pointer, moving the chips around when it sounded, and I saw what looked like the edge of a coin with a smooth edge, nice and silvery. I reached in and picked out this beautiful ring. I tucked it in my palm, and looked up at Abby with a somewhat solemn expression, hands at my side, she started over probably thinking I was throwing in the towel for the search. When she got near I asked what her ring looked like, as I held out my open hand with her ring in it. Abby was immediately swarmed with a multitude of emotions all resulting from the joy she had at seeing her wedding ring again, after being without it for a couple of months. It was then Chris remembered there was a tractor in the area where the ring was found the day of the previous search, and yes I also remembered a tracked vehicle that was parked right on top of the ring the last time I was out there which did not allow us to search that area. We were fortunate it had been moved this time. Chris said they had the ring custom made in an old town in the UK where he was raised, and to tell it myself, the ring looked as if it had been made for Royalty; I might have been right about that, as she is his « queen ». What a wonderful day!

I was at home relaxing Sunday evening when I received a call from Jason. His wife had lost her engagement and wedding rings while getting the sand off her hands. They flew off into the soft sand and were immediately gone. They searched and searched, but were unable to find them. They were on vacation from Colorado, and would be leaving for home in a couple days, so they wanted to find them as soon as possible. Knowing that his beach is heavily detected, as well as cleaned by the County machines, I let Jason know that I was already leaving and would be there soon.
I got to the beach about 10:45, and set out to find Jason in the dark. It took a few minutes, but we connected, and then he walked me out to the area of the loss. When we approached I could see a lady standing out there by herself, it was his wife. She had not left the spot where the loss occurred which helped in trying for the recovery, knowing the location. They had drawn a large circle in which they believed contained the area where the rings should be. I began my grid in the middle of the circle worked out in the direction that she showed me that the rings should have gone. I worked all of the circle, and then outside of the circle, no rings. I then began working from the middle towards the opposite direction finishing the circle, with no rings. I could detect a bit of discouragement as I looked over to them. I continued out of the circle when I got a strong double beep in the head phones, dug, and had her wedding band in the scoop. As I was raising the scoop I rescanned the hole, and just to the left of it got another strong double beep. I reached in and pulled out her ring, and she was so surprised to see it. I then said I will have the other ring in a second. I scooped, and there it was, her engagement ring. Needless to say, I knew Jason and his wife would sleep well that night; they were very happy, as you can see in her smile.
Jason sent the following testimonial:
My wife’s wedding ring and engagement ring slipped off her finger into the sand along the beach in Santa Monica. The rings were lost at 10 pm on a Sunday night. My wife was devastated even though I repeatedly assured her they were replaceable. We marked the approximate spot of the location of the rings and called Steve. Steve met us 45 minutes later (quite impressive for a Sunday night) and found the rings 1 minute later. Thank you so such! Steve’s professionalism, friendly demeanor and cheerful spirit were greatly appreciated during an otherwise stressful situation. Thank you!!

I received a call from a lady who wished to remain anonymous. She had lost her Mother’s ring in sand at the beach, and needed help in finding it. I let her know I would be on my way.
When I got to the beach she was waiting for me, and showed me the small area of where she believed the ring should be, so I set up for a search. I started in the middle of the area, and after about 5 swings of my coil I got the sound I wanted, dug, and had her Mother’s Ring with her children’s names written in gold wire in my scoop. She was very thankful, and took my picture with the ring. A fulfilling afternoon!

Arvin called, and he was very unhappy, because he had lost the special ring his father had given him in the sand of the beach. He was shaking the sand out of his shoes when his heavy silver ring slipped off of his finger, and disappeared in the sand. I left immediately to do the search, as I could tell he was very disappointed about the loss.
I got to the beach and found Arvin. We went over what had happened, and I began my grid not finding even trash metal. Then I received a very high signal, so high in fact it was bordering on rusted iron. I dug, and in my scoop was a very heavy silver ring. I gave it to Arvin who was so happy to know that his dad’s gift was with him again!

I received a desperate late night call from Monica. She had been traveling down the coast on her way to the airport, and while stopping on the side of the road to apply sunscreen, she removed her soldered engagement and wedding rings, and laid them in her lap. She then got out of the car forgetting her rings altogether. She left, and was at the airport getting ready to head back to Colorado when she realized the loss, so she had no way to get back to look for the rings. I let her know that I would leave immediately to look for them.
I got to the spot she directed me to, and there was one vehicle in the area she had told me about. I was hoping the car tire was not covering the rings, or that maybe they were knocked out into the highway by another vehicle. I turned on my light and began looking around on the shoulder. As soon as I got in front of the car I spoke of earlier, I flashed the light around the bumper, and got the beautiful glimmer from Monica’s rings right under the front of the car. I took a picture with her rings, sent her a text of the recovery with my picture. She was so surprised and happy to know they had been recovered. We then arranged to get the rings back to her via USPS, and I am happy to report she has them back.

Alexis contacted me in the evening about the loss of her engagement ring in the sand of the beach. She was pushing her child on the swing, when the movement of her hand caused her ring to fly off of her hand, and was immediately lost in the sand. She and her husband searched to no avail for the token of his love for her. Knowing the area to be metal detected frequently, I told them that I would get there as soon as possible to do the search.
When I got there it was dark, but I could see Alexis and her family still searching with flashlights for the lost ring. The area was close to the playground equipment so I turned the sensitivity down on my detector so as to not be too influenced by the playground equipment, and began my grid. I worked one side of the swing set with no ring. I then worked under the swings, still no ring. I began working the other side of the set, and got a nice signal, dug, and had her ring in my scoop. She and her husband were so happy to see it again, and were able to leave for a late dinner, and getting the children to bed. Those smiles are precious!
