Lost White Gold with Diamond Wedding Band at Kaimana Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!
This ring find began when I got a call from Vicki who hails from Blaine, Washington and was celebrating her 50th Wedding anniversary with her husband Jim at Kaimana Beach Waikiki. While enjoying the cool water at Kaimana Beach, Jim’s White Gold with Diamond ring slipped off his finger and disappeared in the silted up water. Vicki & Jim searched as best they could but the water was a bit too murky. The lifeguard told them to contact « the ring finders » and that’s how they found me. I told Vicki I lived 10 minutes away and would grab my gear and head right down. If I could find parking that would be grand. Thankfully, there were a few stalls open near Kaimana so I arrived in record time. Jim had been standing in the water on the spot for over an hour. I fired up the Manticore and rushed out to meet him in about four feet depth of water. I told him to stand in that spot and I would do a grid search around him. I had a loud possible target but it kept moving away so I assumed it was a beaver tail. As I got closer to Jim I got a very high tone that sounded like a quarter. I asked him if he had lost any change while hanging out in the water and he said, « No! » I dug that target and it was an awesome chunky silver ring with a Tiger’s Eye stone. Now where is Jim’s ring? I started to think since the tide was going out Jim might have lost his ring closer to shore where it was four feet deep an hour ago. Sure enough, Boom! about twenty feet closer to shore I got a loud mid-tone and there was Jim’s ring in the scoop after the second try. Much jubilation and hand shakes. 50th Anniversary saved! Aloha to Jim & Vicki!
Lost Tungsten Ring Found Inside Car in Detroit Michigan
Treasure Trunk…..
Those words always make me think of a pirate treasure chest loaded with booty. Unfortunately, this hunt was different. It began when James was hauling items from one yard sale to another, a de-cluttering of sorts with some friends. When nighttime came and they were all sitting around a bonfire, James noticed his ring missing. The next day I started a grid search on the grounds where he was loading items into bags and boxes and followed the path he took to the car. No metal signals came thru on my MXT metal detector. I started to wonder if the ring was inside a bag or box, but he said that none of his friends said anything after emptying them. So, a vehicle search began. nothing inside the car was found but when I moved the panel covering the spare tire in the trunk there his ring was hiding under it! James couldn’t believe it was there! Truly a case of less is more!

Lost Gold Ring Found in Northville Michigan
He Spiked it to Win It….
But during a short break to celebrate, Santhosh noticed his gold ring missing. With the court due back is session shortly for a final game, he sat out of bounds and called me. I arrived and both teams relocated to another court to allow me full access to search where Santhosh was playing. Grid searching with my MXT metal detector with the bigfoot coil covered the ground fast. As I closed in on an area near the net I got a nice clear signal. Reaching down thru the grass revealed Santhosh’s gold ring. Holding it up in victory his family came running to see it. Even tho his team lost without him, he felt recovering his ring was the « set » of a lifetime!

Wedding Ring Lost in Front Yard-Found
James contacted me and told me that his wife had lost her ring in the front yard. It was yellow gold with a solitaire. He said it had been lost for around two months and they had rented a metal detector with no luck. When I got there I asked all of the usual questions that I always do. She said they had been arguing and she threw the ring across the front yard, and where she had been standing. This is always a great help, because it gives me a better idea where to look. I started my grid search in the likely area, and had made two passes across the yard. About one forth of the way back across the yard on the third pass, I got a solid 19 on my Manticore. It was the ring, but after two months it was already completely covered and not visible. The actual search time was less that fifteen minutes.
Found family heirloom ring Three Oaks ,MI
This young lady text me on friday night saying she lost her ring that was a family heirloom. She said they where driving along the road and she went to throw her daughters icecream cone that she didnt want anymore out the window and when she did the ring came off too. So I met her there as soon as it got daylight and searched for about 2 hrs she knew where the icecream cone landed (off the road about 20 feet) but we couldnt find where the ring was. She definitely seen it fly off so I knew it had to be there somewhere. I finally went right beside the busy highway and was going along there when I seen a sparkle in the rock from the rising sun and there it was. She was super happy, I give praise to God cause we where really praying that we would find it.
Lost Gold Ring Found on the Beach in Monroe Michigan
Where the Water Meets the Sand……
Was the partial voicemail left by Haida who texted next that she and a friend were picking up beach shells and driftwood when her ring fell off her finger. It was a very special ring, one that her sister had just presented to her for graduation. Getting too dark to search further, she went home and was hoping that her sister didn’t notice the ring missing. We met the next morning and Haida with her friend relocated where they remembered being. I noticed patterns on the sand where the tides gently rolled across the sand overnight. I began a grid search with my MXT metal detector at the water’s edge. Working in towards shore I sank into the sand almost a foot deep, it was very loose with rough edged granules. Getting a good signal, I started to sift thru the sand with my pin-pointer metal detector and felt it buzz next to my hand. Slowly bringing the scoop of sand up Haida’s ring revealed itself! Haida and her friend were up on solid ground with their backs turned so I just stood there holding the ring up. When they turned around, I never saw anyone run as fast to get their ring! Thinking it was lost forever Haida was extremely happy that it wasn’t, and now she’ll always stay in good standing with her sister through every high and low tide.

White Gold and Diamond Pendant Recovered
Recently while enjoying a wonderful warm afternoon in her backyard Melinda’s prized white gold with 3/4 carat diamond pendent went missing. Melinda was holding one of dogs when his paw got caught up in her necklace and pulled it away from her neck. She managed to catch her necklace, but the pendant had managed to escape her grasp and had disappeared into the grass. Melinda and her 80-year-old mother spent hours on their hands and knees searching for the pendant. She even went as far as borrowing a detector from a neighbor and tried to find her pendent but had no luck as she had no idea how to setup the machine to recover such a target.
She sent me a text about my ability to find her pendant; I happened to be in area and actually had my XP Deus with high-frequency coil with me. We exchanged a few texts and finally a phone call to finalize search details. I was pulling up to her house just over an hour from first contact from Melinda. She explained what had happened, where she was standing when the pendent went missing. The search areas was small but so is the pendent. I set up my machine and Melinda went inside to grab a sport drink for me. With the first swing of my machine a good signal rang out, I pulled back the grass the pendent revealed itself. When Melinda returned with the drink, I was holding her pendent out for her to see. I think she was in disbelief that I had found it so fast.

Vintage 10k Yellow Gold Black Onyx Ring Lost In Lamont County Alberta
I received a call from Damon requesting my assistance in locating his Great Great Grandmother’s Black Onyx ring, which was lost on his wedding day last saturday October 4, 2025.
Damon informed me that his mother who had inherited it from her late Great Grandmother. His mother subsequently passed it on to Damon’s wife.
He mentioned that they had taken photographs at an old homestead, where he believes the ring fell off his wife’s finger.
I agreed to conduct a search for the ring, recognizing its sentimental value to both Damon and his wife. I met Damon at his home in Lamont County, approximately 60 miles east of my location.
We drove to the location where they had taken their wedding photographs. Damon indicated three potential areas where the ring could be found. After carefully listening to his description, I suggested that we begin the search from the end of the road. Damon and his wife were certain that the ring had fallen off at the beginning of the photo shoot. We proceeded to the end of the road and retraced our steps towards the old homestead, halfway up the path. Suddenly, I heard a pleasant tone, and there was his ring, beautifully concealed by leaves. I informed Damon of its location, and he was overjoyed.
