Lost White Gold Wedding Ring in Ponderay Lake….Found!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)
Contact:

A Memorial Day vacation for Constantine and Silvana was winding down. All the fun filled activities planned for that weekend were almost completed. However, Constantine had one last challenge to attempt. He and his buddy wanted to do a cold plunge in the frigid waters of the Ponderay lake. Gritting his teeth as the cold-water bit into his feet, Constantine stepped quickly onto his paddle board. Then Constantine paddled out into about seven feet of water. After a few encouraging words from his family, he dove into the murky green water. As Constanine kicked off the board, the board floated quickly away from him. The shock of the ice-cold water gave Constantine a boost of energy, so he swam quickly to retrieve his board. Reaching for the edge of the paddle board, the wedding ring he was wearing left his finger and sank quickly into the lake. There was a video taken of Constanine during his cold plunge experiment. This gave me the confidence I needed when I showed up to search for his lost ring. I was told that the video showed him with and without the ring. Also, I got a forewarning for the ice-cold water. So, I brought all of my cold-water gear. The first few steps into the water gripped my ankles as the water made its way into my dive boots. The rest of my suit kept out the cold fingers of the winter snow runoff water. There was a distinct L shape Constanine made, while swimming around. I started at the very end of that L and made my way to where Constanine had jumped off and then climbed back onto the board. Each passing second seemed like an eternity to Silvana as she watched me searching. Silvana was probably playing the wedding over and over in her head because they had just gotten married two months before. The new wedding ring that Constanine had just started wearing, already held a lot of memories and sentiment to the both of them. At the very moment when hope was fading as I came close to the end of the L shape, I saw a very round shape sitting in the rocks. My first attempt to pick the ring up with the scoop failed. The water was just a little too deep, because as I tried to dive down, the buoyancy of my suit shot me back up to the surface. After failing twice, I collected myself and yelled to the crowd watching, “I found It!”. Their cheers put me back into the mindset I needed. My scoop was to my left sitting motionless. I grabbed it and went at the ring again. This time the ring fell gently into my scoop. As I passed my scoop up to Constantine, the whole dock worth of people where smiling and cheering. I have had a lot of scoops full that revealed a valuable item, but none of them felt as good as a successful ring find does. Blessings to you Constantine and Silvana, may God Bless your marriage and life together. Thank you for trusting The Ring Finders you two.

It was dark already when Rahm called about his lost phone. He and some friends when running around in the sand when he noticed that his phone had come out of his coat pocket. They looked all around for it, but were unable to find it. I let him know I would leave as soon as possible to help him find it.

When I got to the beach, it was very dark, and it took me a while to find Rahm. When I finally did, he took me out to the area where they had been running, and explained what he did to possibly lose the phone. I then turned on my detector, swung about 3 times, and found his phone! He had put me almost right on top of it! It was a quick find, which made for a happy recovery.

Man’s Tungsten Wedding Band Lost in the Soft Sand – Found and Returned Ocean Isle Beach NC

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

On May 26, 2026, just before 6 pm, I received a call from Olivia about a lost ring. She said her husband Tyler had put his Tungsten wedding ring in a bag along with some towels and kid toys. Throughout the course of the day, things were removed and replaced in the bag. They suspected that at some point his ring had been accidently pulled out of the bag and fallen in the soft sand. She also said they had been sitting in the upper part of the beach and left the beach around 4 pm. This would have been right at high tide. To complicate matters, we’re in the King tide cycle, meaning excessive high and low tides. Olivia also stated that the high tide had come in and covered the upper beach, including the rental house stairs to the beach. I told her the best thing would be for me to come out around 11 pm to ensure the tide had gone back out. She agreed and we hung up. Around 7 pm, Olivia called me back concerned that I might have too late of a night. So, I asked her how about 9 pm and she agreed.

I showed up at 9 at the address she had given me. Tyler and Olivia’s uncle met me in the driveway. We walked about a block down to the beach access and out on the beach. We walked about another 30 yards east and they showed me the suspected area. Tyler confirmed his ring was silver Tungsten. I turned my Equinox 800 on, took a step and hit a solid 20 on the VDI (visual display indicator), definitely in the Tungsten ring range. I took a shallow scoop of sand, dumped it on the beach and took my foot and spread it out. With my headlamp on, I could see the outside of sand around a round object. I reached down and pulled Tyler’s ring out, turned around and handed it to him. He and Olivia’s uncle were both caugt off guard and completely surprised. We walked back to their house, enjoyed some conversation with Olivia and then I was on my way.

Olivia and Tyler, thank you for calling and trusting me to help find Tyler’s treasure. Best to both of you!

Lost Family Heirloom Gold Found

  • from Bellingham (Washington, United States)
Contact:

A day at Lake Whatcom turned bad when this gal came home without her heirloom ring. They were swimming in Lake Whatcom in Sudden Valley but before going in for a dip she took off some  jewelry and put it on her towel. Then upon returning picked up the towel to dry off and her jewelry was strewn all over the grass. This happens quite often. Matter of fact, many of the calls I get are lost items that were removed because they were afraid of loosing it. My advice to people is if you’re going to remove jewelry, put it into a zippered pocket or container of some sort. The other thing to be aware of is if you lose something in the grass make sure you get back to the location before the grass is mowed. This will dramatically increase the odds of finding it. Thankfully it had not been mowed and the ring was right where she thought it was and I was able to make the recovery.

Lost — Men’s Silver Tungsten Wedding Ring, Daytona Beach, FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Keith early Sunday afternoon. He and his wife of less than a year, Kaylee, were enjoying Memorial Day weekend on Daytona Beach when a strong wave hit him in the surf. Instantly, he felt his wedding ring slip from his finger. He saw it briefly in the water and tried to grab it before another wave buried it beneath the sand.

I told him I’d head that way shortly. On the drive over, I said a prayer asking for guidance.

When I arrived, the conditions were rough. Strong waves, rising wind, and a hard northerly current made it difficult to stand in the waist-deep water. I fired up my Minelab Manticore and searched the area Keith described, but after several passes I decided to return Monday at low tide.

The next day I carefully gridded the exposed beach and searched north with the current, but still no ring.

On Tuesday, after another nearby search, I decided to give it one more try. When I arrived, Keith was there with a borrowed Nokta Triple Score detector. I gave him a quick tutorial and we both started searching.

A short time later, just south of the original area, I got a beautiful signal. Only a few inches down, after all the wind and pounding surf, was Keith’s wedding ring.

I held it up and shouted to Keith.

“No way!” he yelled as he ran toward me.

After three days, the ring was finally back home. Praise God

Handmade wedding band ring recovered Louisville, Colorado

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)
Contact:

 

 

“Objects with sentimental value are treasures that money can’t buy.”

Justine said “it doesnt have a lot of monetary value” but she made her own wedding ring as well as her husband’s. So you can imagine how special this ring was to her. She was visiting from out of town with her family and decided to play basketball with her son at a park nearby. She was sure she had lost it on the blacktop because that’s when she noticed something was not right. Quickly realizing her ring was gone, with her son’s help they searched the blacktop several times over and over. Assuming it had rolled or flew off into the grass, she called for help. I decided to start around the basketball court, did not take long as I did not go out far. With no success I had a hunch to just look over the blacktop before i expanded my search area. It was a small court so my guess was probably not there. But as soon as I took 2 steps onto it I saw my favorite color of blue. There it was. Maybe sometimes you just need a fresh set of eyes searching without emotion. Can you spot the ring on the blacktop?

White Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Dry Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

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

This adventure started at 9:30 am on Memorial Day, 2026 when I received a text from Maureen saying, “Hi, is this the ring finder gentleman? She went on to say, “I apologize so much, I know it’s a holiday, but I was told the sooner I try to get help finding it the better.  We were in front of the Carolinian Beach Resort on 25th Ave in Myrtle Beach with some friends yesterday and I lost my wedding band. It’s just a straight band with 5 diamonds across. It was given to me by my husband by his mom to give to me and I’m just devastated. I’ve been out with my dad’s metal detector once, and we are going to try and go out with it again today. Do you think there’s any chance in a million of finding it?” I immediately called the number, and it went to voice mail, so I text her to call me. When she called, I asked her if she could meet me and told her I could be there in about 30-40 minutes. She agreed, and I told her I was on my way.

When I got there, I texted her and she responded their GPS said they were about 16 minutes out. I asked her if she could give me a location on the beach with some landmarks, which she did. Luckily the beach wasn’t crowded yet, but there was a family just getting ready to set up their spot and it was very close to where I needed to search. I explained what I was doing and asked nicely if I could check their area really quick. They agreed and I quickly went over the area and got a solid 26 on the VDI (visual display indicator). Well, the 26 told me the target was in the silver range. This was way outside the single digits I expected for a white gold wedding band, which was what Maureen’s wedding band was. I dug the target and found a ring, it was nice looking, but one of the cheap rings people buy at the beach shops for $10 bucks. I thanked the family and waited for Maureen, her husband Miguel and their children.

Maureen and her family showed up a short time later and met me on the beach. Maureen walked to the south side of the area where they had been sitting. She said that she had taken her rings off and put them under the strap of her swimming suit top to put sunscreen on her and the kids. After she was done, her engagement ring was there but the wedding band had fallen out. I turned the Equinox 800 back on and started a north/south grid. Within just a few minutes, I got a booming 6 on the VDI, Bingo!! This was exactly what I was expecting for her white gold ring. Took a scoop of sand, shook out the sand and saw her ring in the bottom of the scoop. I held the scoop out to her and let her pull her treasure out. She was so excited, and some tears started to flow. Perfect ending and another chapter to add to her ring story.

Maureen – Thank you so much for calling and trusting me to help find your precious ring, so glad I could help. I wish all the best to you and Miguel.

Lost/Found Gold Ring Wedding Set In Milton, Delaware

  • from Lewes (Delaware, United States)
Contact:

On 05/05/26, I received a call from Randy requesting my help in finding a gold ring wedding set that belonged to his wife Carole. Randy said that the wedding set had been lost in the grass at the rear of their residence while Carole was hanging up their wash on the clothes line to dry. Randy said that Carole felt the two rings as they slipped off her finger but upon searching the grass under the clothes line the rings were no where to be found. Upon responding to Randy and Caroles residence I started to search the grass under the clothes line with my metal detector. After a few minutes into the search I determined that the grass so short and dry that if the rings were on the ground it would be possible to see and recover them by searching by eye sight. I determined that the rings were not on the ground under the clothes line. I noticed that Carole had hung up a fitted bed sheet on the clothes line so that it could dry. I grabbed my pin pointer and ran it along the bottom of the fitted sheet at which time my pin pointer began to sound off. The two lost rings had slid off of Caroles finger and landed in the bottom of the fitted sheet, Carole removed the rings from the sheet and placed them back on her finger where they belonged.
