Yonatan contacted me because he had lost his ring at the beach earlier in the day, and had exhausted all possibilities of finding it. It was about 9:00 PM, but told him that because the beach is detected frequently, and cleaned by machines in the morning, that I would go that night if he would wait for me. He agreed, and I was on my way.

When I got there Yonatan was with a group of friends, and they came over as I was walking out to them. They were excited at the possibility of him getting his ring back, as was I. He told me he was playing volley ball when the ring came off, and he knew when and where it happened. In fact they had even marked the spot with a sandal. He told me it was silver, and began to describe it, when I said, that it will probably be the only ring I find that night. Well I turn the detector on, swing a couple of times, and get a solid silver tone in the head phones. I dig, and in the scoop is a silver ring. I hold it out for Yonatan, who comes over. He takes it, holds it in his hand, and says to my surprise, this ring is not mine. Who would have known? So I continued the search working pass after pass until I was a good distance outside of the designated search area when I got another solid silver tone, dug, and had another silver ring in the scoop. This time it was his, and the excitement among his friends was electric. It was about 11:00 PM. He then told me he was on vacation from Israel, and was going back the next week. We got to talk a little about his country, because my wife and I had visited back in 2019, and had a wonderful time. So great to see so many smiles in one place!

When Jared called they had already left the beach. It seems that he had his ring in the beach chair, and when they were leaving, the chair was picked up, and ring vanished. I asked if he would be able to meet me there, and at that time he was not available, so I told him I would go and do the search for him if given the information on the area. He agreed, and sent me very detailed and concise directions as to where the loss occurred.

I got to the beach a little later in the evening hoping that the crowds would have thinned out. I began my search starting at the furthest possible limit, and worked my way towards the other limit. I did have to weave in and out of beach goers who had their blankets out. I continued to search, not finding much because this is a very clean beach thanks to the very good county beach machines. As I made pass after pass without finding much, I came to a spot where some people had a blanket on the beach, and folded it over to protect their belongings while they went into the water. That gave me a couple of feet more to search, and low and behold, I struck gold in that spot. I called Jared telling him, and sent a picture of the ring I found. He told me that was it, and he was now free to come down and pick it up. Just another great day providing reasons for people to smile.

Lost Gold Wedding Ring Found in Saratoga, NY Ball Park!

  • from Saratoga Springs (New York, United States)
Contact:

John called me at 8:30 am and told me he lost his wedding ring in a ball field. He had taken it off and put it in his zipped pocket with his watch because it was bothering him when he held the bat. He had taken out his watch a couple times to check the time and the second time he realized his ring was gone. He was devastated.  He said he could meet me at 12:30 so there I was waiting for him when he arrived. We hunted for over two hours in extreme heat the area he said he lost it in with no luck. I asked him how long he would like to keep searching for and he said until 3:30, another half hour.  I told him it was time to expand our search area. I could see the sad and almost hopeless look on his face.  I told him not to give up hope, that the ring was not going anywhere and I would even come back another day even though he had to return to Philadelphia. At 3:25 I got the signal I was waiting for. I said to myself, « this HAS to be it. » I dropped to my knees and combed the grass with my fingers and there it was the gold glinting in the sunlight. I didn’t touch it and called out to John, « John, come here! » He ran over not sure why I had called him. I said, »look! »  He couldn’t believe his eyes and picked it out of the grass almost sure he would never see it again. We were two very happy, hot and tired guys jumping for joy! A great moment to cherish.

Men’s Wedding Ring Found At The Beach & Returned, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

Details change but the basic story is the same – a loose ring went flying into the water as a ball was thrown.  Anthony was enjoying a Cape Cod vacation with Anisha, his young bride of a little over a month, and friends when disaster struck.  What had been a good time playing in the water suddenly changed to the depressing reality that the precious wedding band so recently installed on Anthony’s finger was gone.  Frantic searching and diving to scour the bottom produced no results (it’s amazing how quickly a ring disappears into the sand!).  The whole incident was observed by onlookers on the beach.  Fortunately one of them was aware of the Ring Finders and suggested that Anisha contact me.  So within a couple hours of the loss I was there with detector in hand and began a search.

Although the area of the loss was fairly well defined, search conditions were less than ideal.  Wind, waves, and, in particular, thick floating and submerged mats of eelgrass and seaweed made it difficult to swing a dectector in a coherent search pattern.  Nonetheless, after 2+ hours I felt that I had covered the area thoroughly at least 3 times, and there was no result.  Sometimes, for no logical reason, a ring simply ‘disappears’ – maybe it was missed by an inch on a swing, maybe it was oriented such that it gave a poor signal as the detector was jerked around in the surf, maybe it sank rapidly into soft sand that was being exercised by the waves, maybe, maybe – who knows?  In any case we were all tired and in the waning light it was time to call it quits.  We were deeply disappointed, but… I told Anthony that all hope was not lost and that I’d be back for another look.  I refused to believe that the ring simply could not be found.

Two days later the conditions were good – light offshore winds, clear water – so I headed to the beach about an hour before low tide.  Again I did a regular search pattern and in about half an hour had Anthony’s ring in my scoop.  It was located a bit outside of the ‘prime’ area but still within the area that I had covered well in my prior search.  Go figure!

Then the part that that I love even more – the call to Anthony & Anisha to tell them that I’d found the ring.  It was too bad that this could not be done in person (they had returned to home in Connecticut), but the exuberant joy on the other end of the connection could not be mistaken and was eminently satisfying.  Arrangements were made to return the ring via their friend’s mother, who travels regularly to Connecticut.  Thus the happy ending of another Ring Finder saga.  And most importantly, congratulations to Anisha and Anthony – may your love and lives be long and blessed.

 

Anthony’s shiny new wedding band.

Anthony’s ring back where it belongs!

Tyler contacted me to tell me he lost his wedding ring in the sand at the beach. I asked if he was still at the beach, but said he had already left, and was on his way to a different venue. I had a previous scheduled appointment for the day my self, and would not be available until about 11:30 PM. I asked if that would work for him, and he said it would, so he sent me all of the information regarding the loss, because he was not able to meet me at the beach when I went.

I got home, retrieved my equipment, and ended up at the beach almost at the time I had given him. I let him know when I arrived, and would let him know when I would finish. I set boundaries much broader that the area he had given me, 1) because it was dark, and 2) because I did not want to miss any possibility of finding his ring. I began a grid from the top of the slope, and worked out on the beach. Pass after pass on a very clean beach, not finding much in the way of even trash metal. Then after about 9 passes, I got a good signal, dug, and had a ring in the scoop. I had not asked him what it looked like, so I sent him a text saying I found a ring, and asked him to describe his.  It was his ring. I then offered to drive it to him then, and he gave me the address. I got it to him, and he was very grateful, telling me that he and his wife were going to celebrate their 3rd wedding anniversary in 3 weeks. What a great feeling it is to be able to help people like Tyler.

Lost Wedding Ring Recovered at Low Tide on Ledbetter Beach Santa Barbara

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Contact:
Lost Ring Recovery in Santa Barbara – Dave MacDonald at DaveTheRingFinder.com
Accidentally lost your wedding ring, necklace, pendant, or bracelet at the beach or in your backyard in Santa Barbara? Whether it’s in the sand at East Beach, the surf at Hendry’s Beach, or a yard near Bates Beach, call or text Dave MacDonald, Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties’ #1 ring recovery specialist, at 805-290-5009 or visit davetheringfinder.com. I’ll get your lost jewelry back to you ASAP—don’t let time slip away!
Vacationing in Santa Barbara is a dream—until it isn’t. Kate and Dominick from England were enjoying a day at Leadbetter Beach when a football toss in the water sent his platinum wedding ring of 19 years flying into the ocean. Two hours of frantic searching and a borrowed metal detector left them defeated, convinced it was gone forever. That is, until a local Santa Barbara Facebook group pointed them to me—Dave MacDonald, the Ringfinder and metal detecting expert for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara.
Kate called me Tuesday morning, explaining the ring vanished Sunday in the surf near Leadbetter Beach. She gave me the general spot, and I told her low tide was key—our best shot was Wednesday at 4:30 a.m., with a 0.7 tide. The family was leaving Tuesday, so Kate dropped a map pin for me—from East Beach to Hammonds Beach, I’ve got Santa Barbara covered—and trusted me to find it. At 4:30 a.m., I hit Leadbetter Beach, gridding the water’s edge with my Minelab Manticore. After digging trash for 30 minutes, I got a clean signal right where the waves lapped. One scoop, a headlamp check, and that sweet clank—Dominick’s heavy platinum ring was mine!
I texted Kate photos for confirmation, then headed to recover a necklace at Carpinteria State Beach. Could it be another platinum ring lost at Leadbetter? Unlikely. An hour later, Kate asked if her name was inscribed inside. With daylight breaking over Santa Barbara, I checked—there it was. The right ring was soon on its way back to England! From Thousand Steps Beach to Mesa Lane Beach, I recover rings wherever they’re lost.
For lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara at East Beach, Hendry’s Beach, Bates Beach, Loon Point Beach, Leadbetter Beach, Butterfly Beach, Summerland Beach, Miramar Beach, Thousand Steps Beach, Mesa Lane Beach, or Hammonds Beach, I’m Santa Barbara’s top choice. Dave MacDonald at davetheringfinder.com has the expertise to find your ring in sand, surf, yards, or fields. Don’t wait—call or text me at 805-290-5009 now. Time’s against you, but I’m not—let’s get your jewelry back fast!

Lost – MEN’S 10K WHITE GOLD WEDDING BAND, NEW SMYRNA BEACH, FL – FOUND!!!

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

Monday around 6pm, I had just returned from the beach when I got a call from Muru. He explained that he and his wife Courtney had been to the beach on Saturday, and he had lost his 10k white gold wedding ring. He said that his wife Courtney found me on the internet and wanted to know if I could look for the ring.

He told me that he had lost it in shallow water and at the steps leading down from the parking meter. I decided to go right back to the beach right away to search. I fired up the Manticore and did an extensive grid search. I checked both dry sand and water and did not find the ring.

On Tuesday I decided to go back when the tide was at the exact same height as it was when Muru lost the ring. If anything, the ring should be in dry sand since on Saturday the surf was up due to a passing storm. In addition, Muru had sent me an image and he was North of most of my efforts Monday.

I started a slow and methodical search. Twenty minutes into the search I got a strong gold-like hit. I dug the target and the shine of the ring shown out of the clump of sand. The ring that was lost was found and given back to Muru and his family later that day.

Lost Wedding Band returned to Owner who is in Hospice

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

    Today we drove 3 hours to find a gentleman’s Wedding Ring he lost gardening 6-8 months ago.  Today unfortunately his health has driven him into a Hospice situation.  His wife and adult children really wanted to have the ring found before he passes.   When his wife answered the door she broke down crying, « just knowing we were there to search for the ring »,  it was literally 100 degrees.  We began our search through the sticky blueberry bushes and all over the 3 acres.  The wife came out to speak with us, as Ellen was speaking to her, I continued to search.  And praise God not 10 feet from where she was standing I got a Gold Signal.  I reached down and got a really big smile on my face knowing  I had just found the ring.  The lady nearly jumped into my arms when we showed what we had found.  We so love what we get to do.

Dauphin Island – Lost diamond ring

Contact:

I got a call from Todd asking if I found rings. Well, yes sir, I do my best – tell me your story.

Todd and his wife were visiting Dauphin Island from Arkansas and this was their second day here. His wife had put her wedding ring on the chair and then accidentally knocked it off. He shared with me that they had been crawling around on hands and knees for a couple of hours looking for it.  They weren’t far away from me so I was there within 15 min.

Todd met me and took me down to the beach where they had set up. Fortunately it was a beach house that wasn’t on the public beach, and it was a fairly narrow strip of sand. The chairs had already been removed, so Todd pointed me to the area they had been sifting the sand with their fingers. It was hot as blue blazes outside with an excessive heat warning that day so I uttered a quick prayer that this would be an easy recovery ! Not to mention I was also recovering from a bout with Covid and my stamina and energy was definitely not back up to normal yet.

I set out with my trusty Minelab Equinox 900, mentally mapped out an area to grid, and started swinging. I warned Todd that pull tabs sound a little like rings and told him don’t get too excited if I scooped a target. Less than a dozen swings of my coil, I got a promising signal. A few gentle shakes of my scoop and there was his wife’s ring. Thankfully one of my easiest recoveries yet and another beach vacation saved !

Lost unique white gold ring with diamond…Found at Baker Beach!!!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)
Contact:

The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

I contacted Debra early on Wednesday after reviewing a Craigslist post about a lost white gold ring with a diamond.  She had been on Baker Beach when the ring went missing and after talking with her I could tell that it was troubling her.

I sent her a link to THERINGFINDERS.COM site and agreed to search for the ring the following Saturday.  She agreed and was very thankful for my offer.  Later that evening my good friend Jes Muse, founder of The Bay Area Bleepers (check it out) sent over the post suggesting that I perform the search as she would be out of town.

I woke up at 4:30 Saturday morning, packed my gear, and made the hour drive to the coast.  When I arrived, there were few people on the beach and at one point I shared the beach with no one but three coyotes.  The fog was thick, so much so that it fell like rain and the sand had a thin wet layer on top.  I opened up a photo that Debra was kind enough to mark up of the area that would become the search zone.  The detecting was difficult with seemingly never ending targets hid beneath my grid pattern.  I cleared handfuls of trash from the beach as I searched.  And then, a ring!  Sadly not the ring I was there for, but a happy consolation.

After about two hours of searching, I decided to call Debra and give her an update and to get a better account of where she might have been.  As it turned out, I was working away from where she had been and after a 20 yard course correction and pockets full of trash, I hit an 8-9 VDI (visual display indicator) that sounded very promising on the equinox. In one scoop I had the item, but it had not revealed itself.  I’m happy to announce, WE MADE THE RECOVERY!!!

The exciting part was yet to come.  I took a few photographs of the ring and the beach and sent them on to Debra.  The next thing I did was gave her a call and when she answered I simply asked if she had gotten my photos.  She admitted she had not but went straight to them.  That is when I got my payout!!!  She was so extremely excited that I could feel it through the phone.  It’s a feeling like no other.

   

After our celebration over the phone, I agreed to drop off the ring on my way home.  She lived along the route I would travel home and I was excited to get to meet her.  I quickly packed the gear and 45 minutes later the ring was back with Mrs. Debra.

It takes a lot of trust for someone to disclose a bunch of details about their missing valuables, especially when they are so sentimental.  Thank you Debra for putting your trust in me to assist you in the recovery of your unique and beautiful ring and for your generosity!  It was a pleasure to meet you and I wish you the very best in your future!
