Lost gold chain

  • from Waikīkī Beach (Hawaii, United States)

This recovery all started when I got a call from the ‘Ohana letting me know that a chain and pendant had been lost in the water at Poka‘i Bay. I was down the road when I got the call, so I quickly gathered all my gear and headed out to help.

When I arrived, I talked with Triton who is the brother of Mercedess and learned where they believe it was in the ocean and that one of our local lifeguards Mike Eckart had jumped in the water to help. I powered up my equipment, hit the water, and began working a few grids. After talking with the mike and covering the area, I finally got a solid tone — and there it was, right inside my scoop: a beautiful gold chain and pendant.

With a loud “CHEE-HOO!” I held up the scoop, and the kids who were showering and getting ready for a party started yelling, “Did you find it?!” I proudly held up the gold chain and said, “I found it. What was lost is now found.”

Mercedess walked down to the edge of the water and gratefully got the chain out of scoop. The beach was full of joy, and it was such an awesome moment to be a part of.

Mahalo for allowing me Mike to be a part of returning something so precious. What was lost is now found. Much love.

Lost Gold & Diamond Ring & Cellphone, Found! Ocean City, New Jersey By Ringfinder Jeffrey Laag

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)
Received a call from Andrew Monday evening. Andrew explained that he and his family had quite an adventure unfold Sunday afternoon. While Andrew, his brother, and dad (Jack) were at their boat slip, Jack knocked his sons cell phone into the water. Jack jumped in and dove down to retrieve the phone and when he came back up he struck his head on the prop of his boat, this required a trip to the ER to have the wound stapled closed. During the ordeal Jack also lost his wedding ring of over 35 years! Made plans to meet up with Andrew at low tide yesterday. After moving a floating dock over, to work off of, I managed to recover both the phone and ring. Jack was elated to have his ring back! and sons phone too (which was still on and working) lol……. Another happy family!
See Jacks Testimonial Below:
“This past Sunday was a day that I would like to soon forget!
I have a small condo and boat slip at Harbor House Condos in Ocean City. While cleaning my boat I knocked my son’s phone into the bay. I did not know what else to do so I tried diving down to find his phone. little did I know that while doing this my wedding ring fell off. To make matters worse, I hit my head on the motor causing a 3 inch gash which needed 8 staples to close the wound. I can honestly say that the pain in my head was not nearly as bad as the pain I felt losing my wedding ring that I wore for 35 years. At this point after several failed attempts and a head injury, I knew this was a job for a someone that knows what they are doing which was not me. Not knowing where to turn, my son and daughter-in-law called the Ocean City Police and they recommended Jeffery Laag from Lost Ring & Jewelry Recovery Service. Jeff answered the phone and let them know very confidently, that he could find the ring and the phone. He showed up to the location the next day and within 30 minutes found both.
I cannot say enough about this service. Without Jeff I would not have my ring back! If I were to rate his service, I would without a doubt give him a 5 out of 5 stars.”

Lost Wedding Band Found in Brigantine, NJ – Thanks to Ring Finders South Jersey!

Tyler and Jenny planned a relaxing getaway in Brigantine, NJ for one week. They were looking forward to sun, surf, and peace.

During one sunny afternoon, they headed to the beach to enjoy the calm breeze and warm sand. Everything was perfect.

As Tyler settled into his beach chair, he removed his wedding band and placed it in the chair’s pocket for safekeeping.

Later that day, they returned to their vacation home. That’s when Tyler noticed his wedding ring was missing.

Panic quickly set in. The ring held deep sentimental value, and the thought of losing it forever was upsetting.

Tyler and Jenny were thrilled. The ring had been recovered, and their Brigantine trip was saved from ending on a sad note.

Man’s Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Recovered and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

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

This little adventure started Wednesday around 3:30 pm with a text from Kelly saying, “Hello is this Jim Wren? I was just searching online and came across Ring Finders which lead me to your contact. My name is Kerry, a poor soul who lost his dang wedding ring here in North Myrtle Beach. It popped off while throwing a football around in the shallow water where the tide comes in just outside our hotel. Just curious if you might be available Jim? Feel free to respond via text or call. I’m here until Saturday this week. If not, it’s no problem at all. Thanks for your time, man.” I immediately checked the tide tables; low tide was just before 2 pm.  I then called Kelly to discuss the circumstances. He said he had lost it about an hour prior to his text and was in thigh to knee deep water.  I told him I’d be there in about 15 minutes, grabbed my detector and was on my way.

When I got to the beach, I met Kelly’s brother when he came up to me. He introduced me to Kristen, Kelly’s wife. As we were talking, Kelly came up and showed me the area where they were throwing the ball. Luckily, Kelly is right-handed, so the ring didn’t get thrown off. I was 2 hours behind the tide change, but the ring should be in water no higher than my waist. I started an east/west perpendicular grid search, going low and slow with the detector. I wasn’t picking up any targets at all. As the tide was coming in I was working in deeper and deeper water.  I was finally up to my chest when I got a great signal. The signal was what I expected for a man’s yellow gold ring. I was able to get a scoop of sand out, which was empty – no ring. As I find the target again with the detector, I wasn’t paying attention and got hit with a big swell that knocked me backward. From that point, I wasn’t able to find the target again, even though I tried. To get me back in the area on my return, I walked off the steps back to the beach and even with a drainage pipe. Total of 89 steps, give or take with me getting pushed by the current. I wasn’t able to do a good search, so I told Kelly I’d be back the next day, Thursday and called it a day.

I showed up around an hour before low tide so I could get a head start. I met Kelly and Kristen to let them know I was there and went to work. I walked off the 89 steps, plus another 15 or so steps. I’d rather search too much area than not enough. I started my east/west grid and extended my north and south boundary lines. I was getting nothing! The ring should be right there, but I wasn’t finding it. I then started a north/south grid line running parallel to the beach. For me, parallel grids are more difficult because it’s harder to keep a straight grid line. Still with no luck, I took a break to refocus. After my break, I started another east/west grid, tightening my grid lines. I finally hit the target I found the day before and dug it out of the ocean sand. Boom, it was a cap off an orange juice bottle. I had a few choice words and continued. I took another 4-5 steps and got a very iffy signal with the numbers jumping all over the place. I dug the target, shook the wet sand out in the water, and when I looked inside the scoop and there was Kelly’s yellow gold wedding band looking up at me amongst all the shells. I walked up the beach to where Kelly and Kristen had been sitting all day. I was exhausted but made it look worse than it was so Kelly and Kristen would think I was done. I had slipped Kelly’s ring on my index finger and when he was talking and looking away, I held my hand up and when he turned towards me, he saw his ring and froze. I got him! After I gave him his ring, I learned that his and Kristen’s rings were very special and sentimental to them. Both rings were custom made and each of their rings had 3 stones in them that they got from Kelly’s mother and grandmother. Priceless!

Kelly and Kristen – Thank you so much for trusting me to help find your very special ring. Enjoy the rest of your vacation, have a safe trip back home to Ohio, and I wish you two only the best in life,

Jim

Ocean City, NJ: Another Lost Wedding Ring, Another Happy Reunion!

 

Losing something as precious as a wedding band can be devastating, especially when you’re enjoying a relaxing vacation. For Melanie and her husband, their dream week in Ocean City, NJ, took a turn when his lost ring disappeared into the ocean during a peaceful wade.

It was late in the evening when Melanie called, her voice tinged with worry. Her husband had been casting his line, enjoying the gentle lapping waves, when suddenly, his wedding ring slipped off his finger. The powerful ocean currents quickly claimed it, and with the tide rapidly rising, they knew any immediate attempt at recovery would be futile. It was a heartbreaking moment, the kind that can overshadow an entire trip.

We made a plan to meet at the very next low tide, hoping the calmer waters would offer a better chance. Armed with my beach metal detector, I arrived at the designated spot in Ocean City, NJ, with a sense of purpose. The moon cast a soft glow on the water as I began my search, meticulously sweeping the sand.

It’s moments like these that remind me why I do what I do. The anticipation, the focused search, and then that familiar, wonderful sound from the detector. After just 15 minutes of searching, there it was! Under the gentle moonlight, the ring gleamed, a beacon of hope in the vastness of the ocean.

Returning that lost wedding band to Melanie and her husband was an incredibly rewarding experience. Their week-long vacation in Ocean City, NJ, had been transformed from a moment of despair into a triumphant story of recovery. It was a perfect ending to their getaway, a reminder that even when all seems lost, sometimes a little persistence and the right tools can bring about a miracle.

Have you lost a ring on the beaches of Ocean City, NJ, or anywhere else in South Jersey? Don’t give up hope! Whether it’s a lost engagement ring, a family heirloom, or a cherished wedding band, a beach metal detector can often be the key to finding your lost treasure.

2 Lost Diamond & Gold Rings, FOUND! Cape May Point, NJ By Ringfinder Jeffrey Laag

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)
Received a call from Daniel after he was referred to me by Cape May Police Dept. Daniel explained that his wife had dropped both of her rings in the sand two days ago while at the beach with family in Cape May Point. Daniels wife had taken the rings off to apply sunscreen and simply forgotten about them on her lap, a very common mistake, btw. A nearby good samaritan had lent Daniel a metal detector but they had no luck recovering the rings themselves. I gathered some details from Daniel in regards to location and he was also able to send me a dropped pin to get me as close to the area as possible. I arrived on the beach in CMP first thing this morning and began searching. I was able to recover both rings in about 25 minutes and return them to Daniel before he and his family left to return home. Nothing like ending that vacation on a high note! Another happy couple!

Lost engagement and wedding rings, FOUND! Ocean City, NJ By Expert Recovery detectorist: Jeffrey Laag

Christina reached out to our group page at “TheRingFindersNewJersey.com” after she lost both her engagement and wedding bands in the surf. Christina explained that while playing with her children on a boogie board she felt her rings “slip right off” after sending her child to ride a wave. I took the short ride from Cape May up to Ocean City and met up with Christina and her husband. Her husband had already wrote the rings off as he believed they were “gone forever”, to which I replied “lets see what we can do, lol”. I gathered some details from Christina before entering the surf and managed to pull both rings from the waves in about 10 minutes! Granted they dont always go that quickly, lol. Another happy couple!

Lost a ring or valuable? Dont wait, Call NOW! 609-780-4525
Received a message last evening from Ashley. Ashley explained that she dropped a ring in the sand while on Queen St beach today while applying sunscreen. This ring had some pretty significant sentimental value as it had been passed to her from her parents. Ashley had already returned home to Philadelphia before finding my contact information that was recommended to her in “Cape May Live”. We chatted a bit last evening and I headed out after getting off duty this morning, first thing. She was able to markup a screen shot of Queen St beach to help get me in the right general area. After about 20 minutes of searching i had Ashleys ring in the scoop. Her friend picked it up this afternoon and itll be back on Ashleys finger the weekend! Another happy ending! Thank you to the folks in Cape May Live for the recommendations!
Ashleys testimonial:
“I took off a small but sentimental ring to apply sunscreen and, as the story always goes, dropped it into the sand. I spent about an hour looking, and a small crew assembled to help sift the area, with no luck. I left the beach convinced that it was gone forever but posted to a Cape May page in case it was my lucky month. Jeff was recommended almost immediately. Around 8:30 pm we exchanged a few messages back and forth about where I was sitting, time of day, and what the ring looked like and he found it by 8:30am the next day. This man is incredible!”
