I received a contact from Anika because of the loss of her phone and keys at the beach. She had been at a surf school, and put them in a Ziplock bag to bury them while she went in the water putting her towel over them to know where they were buried. When she got out though she found that someone had moved her towel, and she had no idea where they were now. I left immediately to help her.

When I got there I found Anika, and we went over to the area of the loss. It did not take long, and fortunately no one had settled in over the phone and keys. I was able to find them, and she was happy for the recovery. A great day for sure.

Zaki contacted me after having lost his ring playing volley ball at the beach. He told me he couldn’t meet there, but would let me know where he had been playing. So to not let too much time elapse, I went to do the search immediately.

After going by Zaki’s instructions I was able to find the exact court he had been playing on, and began my search in the area he believed the ring to be lost. It took not more than 10 minutes before I was able to locate the ring. I let him know I had it, and then drove it over to where he was to return it. He was very happy to have it back.

Eric contacted me concerning his lost wedding ring. He had been at the beach playing fetch with his dog, when switching hands, he threw the toy with his left hand, and his ring was gone, I was ready to get my equipment together and get to the beach to help him.

When I got there Eric saw me, and waved me over. We then walked over to the area of the loss. It was sizable because the dog had been very active. Also He had a detector of his own, but was unable to find the ring. I began my search one grid line at a time. When I had just about finished the second line, I got a very nice signal in the head phones, dug, and had Eric’s ring. He then told me how it was his grandfather’s ring handed down to him, so the sentimentality was off the charts. Also he had only been married for a month, and for that reason alone the ring had to be found. LOL! Eric was very happy to have the ring back, and I was happy to been able to help him.

Erin called with an air of desperation having lost her keys in the sand at the beach, they included car and house keys. I was ready and available, and let her know that I would leave immediately to help her.

When I got to the beach, Erin found me, and took me over to the spot where she believed them to have been lost. As a professional photographer she had been taking family photos for five different families that morning, and had been very busy, not noticing the loss. The area she showed me was pretty big, but going low and slow, and with a tight grid it would be no problem. I worked one way from the middle, pass after pass, making sure to cover every inch of sand. After about 8 passes, and almost outside of the shown area, I got a strong signal, dug, and had her keys. She wasn’t looking when I found them, and as I walked them over to her, she turned seeing them and was overcome by emotion. She told me that the last 2 weeks had been very tough for her, and losing the keys just seemed like it was breaking the camel’s back. Not to mention, she had another photo shoot lined up, and without the car key she would have made it. I am so glad I was able to make her day. Her smile says it all.

Ana called explaining that she had lost her ring while at the beach, and was not able to find it. I let her know that I would be able to help, and was available, so I packed up my gear, and was on my way.

When I got to the beach I found Ana quickly, and she showed me where she lost her ring. The area was not real large, but as I began, there seemed to be a lot of metal in the area, probably because it was right next to a beach entrance. It seemed as though I could not move 2 inches before I had to dig something, because I was getting many signals. The one thing I have learned in this service is that a person has to have patience and perseverance, so I kept at it digging and digging. I finally came upon Ana’s ring, and we were both very happy. Pretty ring, and happiness all around.

Lost White Gold Diamond Engagement Ring In Leduc, Alberta.

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:
         
Yesterday, I received a call from Tegan requesting my assistance in locating her lost engagement ring. She had lost the ring while brushing snow off her vehicle around 6:30 am. Although she felt the ring detach from her finger, she was unable to determine its direction of travel.

After conducting a preliminary assessment, I was confident that I would be successful in finding the ring. I agreed to travel to Leduc, where Tegan informed me that her fiancée was actively searching for the ring in the parking lot.

Upon my arrival, I encountered Chase, who was present in the parking lot. He had utilized snow melt to clear four parking stalls but had not yet located the ring. He had been searching for the past seven hours.

After thoroughly analyzing the area and employing my test ring, I concluded that the ring was not in the immediate vicinity. It was likely still on her vehicle or had fallen off during her departure from the parking lot.

I conducted a comprehensive search of the parking lot, extending from the exit of the parking lot to four parking stalls before Tegan’s stall. By this time Chase was convinced that the ring was gone for ever,

During the search I detected a distinct metallic tone from my metal detector, confirming the presence of the ring I pointed to the ground and told Chase this is Tegan’s ring . Chase was astounded by my discovery and expressed his disbelief that the ring had been found.
Thank you Tegan and Chase for entrusting me to find your losts engagement ring.

“DIG IT ALL, SAVE SOME RINGS & BURY THE DRAMA!”

Double-Ring set recovered in Howard Park

  • from Green Bay (Wisconsin, United States)

In late October of 2025, I received a call from a widow who had lost her wedding and engagement ring set while playing with her grandson in a tiny city park.   It was somewhere in the wood chips.  The rings meant a lot to her because they had been picked out together, and he had passed just last year.    I taught Mary how to use my old Tesoro Cutlass while I used my Nokta Legend.  The Tesoro is analog, and quite easy to use.  We practiced on my wedding ring so she knew the sound it would make.  We were thinking the rings would be by the swings, because that’s where most hand movements occurred.   Nope!  After about 15 minutes of sweeping our coils, her’s sung out loud with a ring signal.  It was in the middle of an open spot.   I quickly pin-pointed it with my Garrott « carrot, » and it was back on her finger in seconds!  She didn’t just find the rings – all the memories came back with it.  It was a little sad that he couldn’t be here physically, to see it was found, but we could feel him watching over us.

Beautiful sapphires, silver and gold!

A Sparkle in the Snow: The Lost Ring Reunion. Another recovery in the books.

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)
It was one of those crisp autumn afternoons that hinted at winter’s arrival, the kind where the air carries a bite and the leaves crunch underfoot like nature’s confetti. I was wrapping up my day when my phone buzzed with a text from a client in distress. « Lost my wedding ring while blowing leaves in the backyard, » it read. « Got your name from Darren Gray—another Ringfinder. Can you help? » My heart warmed at the mention of Darren. He’s a legend in our community, always generous with passing on leads when he’s swamped or out of range. I’ve been grateful for those opportunities more times than I can count; they remind me how connected we all are in this quirky world of treasure hunting.I texted back that I’d be there in about an hour, grabbed my gear—metal detector, pin-pointer, headlamp, and a few extras—and hit the road. You learn quick in this line of work: better to be overprepared than caught short. A search could wrap up in minutes or stretch into hours, and with the sun dipping earlier these days, I wasn’t taking chances.When I arrived, the client was waiting eagerly by the gate, bundled against the chill. Their backyard was a picturesque challenge: a massive oak tree loomed overhead, its branches casting long shadows like a guardian testing my resolve. And to add to the fun, a light snowfall from the night before had blanketed everything in a pristine white layer, turning the yard into a hidden puzzle. « It happened right around here, » they said, pointing to a spot piled with leaves and snow. We chatted a bit about the ring’s sentimental value—years of love and memories wrapped in that simple band—and I could sense the mix of hope and worry in their voice.I flipped on my headlamp as the light faded, and we got to work. The detector beeped almost immediately on a couple of targets—false alarms, just bits of foil or nails teasing us. Undeterred, I circled back to the starting area, methodically sweeping the ground. Then, another signal: strong and steady. I knelt down, pulled out my pin-pointer, and gently brushed aside a fluff of snow. There, catching the beam of my light like a wink from fate, was a glint of white gold sparkle.« There it is! » I exclaimed, and in that instant, the client’s face lit up with a sound that’s music to any Ringfinder’s ears—a half-gasp of surprise melting into pure relief. We both laughed, the tension evaporating into the chilly air. The whole search? Just ten minutes. Those quick wins never get old; they’re like little gifts from the universe, reminding you why you do this. Sometimes recoveries are marathons, but when a sprint like this comes along, you savor it. As I handed over the ring, the client shook my hand warmly, their gratitude shining brighter than the band itself. « You have no idea what this means, » they said. And in that moment, I did—because helping people reclaim pieces of their story is what makes days like this truly magical. Thanks again to Darren for the pass; it’s folks like him that keep the good vibes circulating. Another happy ending in the books, proving that even under snow and shadows, lost things have a way of finding their way home.

Brook called me for help. She had been getting her beach materials ready to leave when with the flick of her wrist her ring was lost in the sand. She had searched diligently, yet was unable to find it. I was able to go to help, even though it was getting late.

When I arrived, it was dark, and we were the only ones on that lonely beach. She showed me the area where she had marked it, and in the light of my headlight, I was able to see where she had been searching. I began my search, and searched the whole area with no luck. She had never left the beach, so the ring had to still be there. It was time to expand the search, and about 10 feet away from the original area I got a good signal, dug, and had a very pretty ring in the scoop. I showed her and she was very happy because it had been given to her. When we walked up to the highway, I said I would walk her to her car. She told me she was going to call for an UBER, so because it was extremely dark there, and there are a lot of homeless in the area I let her know I would wait with her until the UBER came. Then she asked if I could take her to the Metro train depot in Santa Monica about 10 miles away, which I said I would be happy to do for her safety. Great smile!
