Sterling Silver Ring Lost In The Old Orchard Beach, Maine Sand, Found With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

? ??????? ?LD ORCHARD ????? ??????! ?

? ??? ???? ???? ???????
I just received a text from Claudia asking, « Hey! I heard about you for a ring lost on the OOB Beach. » I texted right back letting her know that yes, I find rings on the beach, and asked if she had just lost one.

?️ ??? ???????????? ???
Claudia explained that she had taken her beautiful sterling silver ring—a precious Valentine’s Day gift from her partner—off and placed it safely on her beach towel before heading into the ocean for a swim with her daughter. Once they came out of the water, her daughter grabbed the towel to dry off… and you know the rest of the story. The silver ring disappeared instantly into the sand! ⚡

? ? ???? ????? ????
Claudia and her group of family and friends—visiting all the way on vacation from Canada, Québec.—started a quick search. However, they quickly and smartly called the search off. They were afraid of accidentally kicking the ring out of the area or pushing it deeper into the sand out of reach of my metal detector. Truly a smart move! ?

? ??? ???? ?? ??? ??????? ?????
I told Claudia I could be at her location in @lOld Orchard Beach in 15 minutes if I could find parking. Cheryl and I loaded up the metal detecting gear and headed straight to OOB. After driving around for 5 minutes looking for a spot, we finally parked about 1/3 of a mile away and walked over to Claudia’s location.

? ????????? ??? ????
Once we arrived, we saw that Claudia and her group had completely cleared the area and placed their beach chairs in a perfect semi-circle to keep the loss zone clear and identifiable. Another great move! I really like these people. ?

? ? ??????? ?? ?????!
I fired up the metal detector and asked ???? ?????? ???????????? ??????????????, ??????, to start rolling the camera. I took exactly two steps and heard the unmistakable tone I was hoping to hear.
Are you serious?! ?
Just two steps and literally 5 seconds into the search, I believed I had already found it. I put the detector down, reached my hand into the sand, felt around, and pulled Claudia’s sterling silver ring, sparkling with stones, right out of the sand! ?✨
(Be sure to watch the video below to see the exact moment it happened!)

? ???????? ????? ??? ????? ????
This was easily one of the fastest recoveries I have ever had. It happened that fast because Claudia and her group had the foresight not to disturb the area, and instead chose to isolate it perfectly by marking it with their beach chairs.
Claudia and her group were all smiles! I cannot stress enough how much Claudia and her crew really helped themselves and me by doing everything exactly right:
* Time is of the essence: Claudia messaged me within minutes of losing her ring.
* Stop searching: They stopped before disturbing the area.
* Isolate the zone: They marked the spot perfectly while keeping others out. ??

? ?? ?? ??? ???? ?????????!
After the smiles, hugs, and handshakes were over, Cheryl and I grabbed our gear and headed back to our vehicle a third of a mile away.
But the day wasn’t over yet!
As soon as we got into the vehicle, the phone rang. Another lost ring phone call! We threw it in drive and headed straight to Point Sebago on Sebago Lake Maine in Casco, Maine. Little did we know, as we left Old Orchard Beach, our ring-finding adventures for the day were just beginning… ??

? ???? ? ???? ?? ????????? ???’? ?????!
If you lose a ring, keys, or other jewelry on the beach or in the grass, remember: Stop searching, mark the area, and call a professional immediately! Time and moving sand are your biggest enemies.

Gold ring lost doing yard work, found and returned with metal detector

  • from Oregon City (Oregon, United States)
Contact:

I received a message from Avery, asking if I would help find her heirloom gold ring lost while doing yard maintenance around her Oregon City property.
She had been raking up all the fir cones that had been dropping in the yard, putting them in a wheelbarrow, and dumping them into a nearby ravine. Part way through her work, she noticed that the gold ring that had belonged to her grandmother, which she wore on her pinky, was missing. She had been raking and shoving the fir cones, wearing gloves, which she had taken off from time to time.
She began searching for the ring immediately, but couldn’t locate it.
She did the expected Google search, and found me on Ringfinders.com.
Huge plus was Avery stopped everything, basically freezing the scene.
Usually when I begin a search, the ring is always on the opposite side of the search area. This time I was just into my third pass of the area, I hit that perfect tone. Kicking back some of the fir cones, I saw the faint glitter of gold.
I picked it up and said “Got it!”

Avery was so happy I got one of the biggest hugs ever. She took the ring, and gave me another huge hug, accompanied by tears of happiness.
Avery preferred not to have any photos, so just included pictures of the ring.

Wedding Ring Found, Muskegon, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:
Fellow ringfinder, Tom T., sent me a referral as he was tied up. Wendy was baking on Saturday and her ring came up missing. She thinks she lost it in the pantry when it flew off her hand and landed in the trash basket. They searched the whole area and went thru the trash about 4 times and did not find the ring. I gave her instructions to record the last time she knew she had the ring on and also the first time she noticed it missing. For that time period I asked her to write down all the things her hand touched during that time.
I arrived and met Gary and Wendy and we went thru the trash one more time with the pinpointer-no luck. They took me into the house and showed me the pantry. While I was searching the pantry, Wendy went in the other room and opened the desk drawer where she had her cook books. She HOLLERS, I FOUND IT! Tucked inside the side of the cookbook was her ring. Sometimes, miracles do happen.

Twin Cities Metro Minnetonka ring lost while playing Frizbee recovered!

  • from Coon Rapids (Minnesota, United States)
Contact:

This incredible, devoted family man lost his ring sometime during the day and suspected it may have happened while playing Frisbee with his kids. The tricky part? He wasn’t exactly sure where or when it was lost.

He had been all over his front yard, playing Frisbee from his neighbor’s yard across the street to all areas of his own yard. He attempted his own search with his own metal detector but didn’t locate it.

He gave me a call, we scheduled a time, and the search was on!

His yard was loaded with targets—approximately every six inches. In situations like this, knowing what your detector is telling you is absolutely key.

After approximately an hour of searching his yard and two neighboring yards, the ring was finally recovered! ?

Another happy ending and another family heirloom back where it belongs. ❤️

My sincere appreciation for you choosing me as your ring finder cannot be overstated, congratulations on your ring return.

Lost Diamond Wedding Ring in Raymore

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

That ugly feeling of panic and anxiety set in when she discovered the ring was missing.  This stunner of a gold and diamond ring was lost in their backyard, either while picking up sticks or while playing with the dog.  John dusted off the ancient metal detector from the garage but couldn’t get any reliable readings.  They contacted TheRingFinders, and the next morning I arrived at their lovely 5 acre country home.  After demonstrating how the equipment worked, we started a grid pattern in the area where she thought it mostly likely to be.  About 10 minutes later, tears of joy welled up as she had her prize possession back on her finger.  This couple was so grateful to have there heirloom keepsake back safe and sound.  They are THRILLED at the outcome and so glad they called a professional.

Lost Engagement Ring 6 Days Before the Wedding

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

Asma was quite upset to discover her engagement ring was missing just 6 days before her wedding.  Through her security camera footage, she had the time narrowed down to a 4 minute window and the front or side yard.  Unable to locate the ring, she and her fiancé contacted me.  We painstakingly reviewed all the footage, recreated the events, and set out to recover this lost ring.  Over an hour into the search, and getting discouraged, I widened the grid area to extend about 35′ from where she was sitting on the porch.  That was the trick!  We finally got that repeatable low tone that signified gold might lay underneath.  This charming couple went from sad and discouraged to joy and relief in an instant.  They were so smart to call a professional instead of the enduring the fear and frustration of trying to find it themselves.  Asma will be a beautiful bride either way but even more fetching with this amazing ring to complete the wedding set.

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys… Don’t wait until it’s too late-Call Chris Turner 24/7  Service- 778-838-3463

I received a text message for help approximately three weeks ago in regards to a Lost Ring in a river, I talked to the young man and he explained that he was leaving town and wouldn’t be back for a week, but he’d give me a call when he got back. When he called, I happen to be out of town for a week, so when I got back, I called him and we set up a time to meet.

I met him at the river and he showed me several locations where he had entered the water and was playing with his children, he did not feel the ring come off, but one of his friends showed up and we were able to see pictures of him wearing the ring at one point, this gives me confidence that it was on when he got there and I’m going to find it if it’s there.

After approximately 45 minutes of searching the river I got a really good signal and found his beautiful gold wedding band!  Ron’s reaction was beautiful to see how much that ring meant to him to get it back. Everybody’s Ring has a beautiful story attached to it. Ron was married for 10 years and he was gutted that he lost his ring and pretty much figured it wouldn’t be found, but why not give it a shot, right!

Ron was able to surprise his family with the Ring and I got to see how much it meant to his wife as well… I love my job!!!

Lost Ring at 3rd Beach Vancouver…Found!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys… Don’t wait until it’s too late… Call ASAP- 24/7 service Chris – 778-838-3463

I received a call last night in regards to a ring that was lost at third Beach in Vancouver, Stanley Park. The young lady explained that she had searched for over two hours in the sand, but could not find it. She knew it was there, but trying to find a ring in the sand is like trying to find a needle in the haystack very very difficult.

With the price of gold, there are so many people out there looking for rings on our local beaches and I knew I had to get out there right away so I had her marked the location so when I got there, I could see where she was. This makes my job a lot easier when people are not there to show me the exact location.

I arrived approximately 9 PM. It was already dark. I was looking for the spot she had marked when I noticed someone mentally protecting only 20 yards away from me. My first thought was maybe they had found it. I found the location that she had marked and within minutes, I found her beautiful diamond engagement ring that I found out she had worn for over 23 years.

I absolutely love my job!!!
