Jeff was happy to get his ring back after in fell out of his back pocket while recording his child surfing. I had to search a sizable area but I was finally able to find it.
This was recovered on August 16th in Huntington Beach.

I was able to find Jose’s beautiful gold class Ring in Laguna Beach with my metal detector in about 10 minutes. He was so grateful as a few of his family members pitched in to buy the ring for him. This recovery was on July 12th.

On Monday, August 24, 2026, I received a voice mail saying in part, “Candy, lost a ring on North Myrtle Beach. Give me a call back and I just wanted to discuss fees.” When I called her back, she told me that a yellow gold loop earring had been lost in the dry sand and asked what I charge. I explained the details on cost, and she asked if I could come. I told her I’d be there in 20 minutes, grabbed my Equinox 800 and hit the road.
I called Candy as I was walking out on the beach and she waved me down. I found out that Becky had her earring fall out of her ear and she showed me a 2’X2’ square where the ring should be. I asked Becky for the other earring so I could test it. After switching to ‘all metal’ mode, I got a loud and clear signal. I asked Becky and the 3 other ladies to move their chairs. As Becky picked up her chair, I swung the coil over the area and Boom! I had her earring in my hand before she set the chair down. Becky was extremely happy as this was a past anniversary present, and tomorrow just happens to be her anniversary.
Becky and Candy – thank you for calling and trusting me to find your lost treasure.

Losing jewelry can be heartbreaking.
Losing a necklace containing your mother’s ashes is something much deeper.
That is exactly what happened to Tiffany while visiting North Wildwood, New Jersey.
Tiffany realized that her necklace was missing from the beach.
This wasn’t an ordinary piece of jewelry.
The necklace contained her mother’s ashes.
Finding it was extremely important to Tiffany and her family.
She searched the area but could not locate the necklace.
Eventually, she contacted Ring Finders South Jersey for help.
John Favano of Ring Finders South Jersey responded to Tiffany’s request.
John specializes in finding lost jewelry and other valuables.
He uses professional metal detecting equipment and careful search techniques.
The search began by identifying the most likely area.
John then worked the beach systematically.
A methodical search can make a major difference when jewelry is lost in sand.
After carefully searching the area, the detector produced a promising signal.
John investigated the target beneath the sand.
There it was.
Tiffany’s necklace had been recovered.
The necklace containing her mother’s ashes was safely back in her hands.
For Tiffany, this recovery meant much more than finding jewelry.
It meant getting back a precious connection to her mother.
Every lost item has a story.
Some items have tremendous sentimental value.
A necklace containing a loved one’s ashes is impossible to replace.
That is why acting quickly after losing something valuable is important.
Do not assume that your lost jewelry is gone forever.
Sand can hide rings, necklaces, bracelets, pendants, and other valuables.
A professional metal detectorist may be able to locate what you cannot see.

John Favano personally handles searches using professional metal detecting equipment.
Searches can include beaches, yards, parks, shallow water, and other locations.

Your lost item may still be waiting beneath the sand.

« Crystal » was here at Seaside beach , near Monterey, yesterday. When putting on suntan lotion, she had taken off her wedding ring. Then made movements around her beach tent zone before she went to put it back on. And so the ring was somewhere around her tent, obscured from view by the swallowing power of the sand. White gold with diamonds, that she’d worn for 17 yrs.
Glad I could help ! Thanx for the tip. 
And she’s just now sent her own very kind play-by-play, here it is, cut & pasted :
« … 5/5 Stars – Highly Recommend Tom Tanner!
My family and I spent the day at Sand City near the sand dunes on West Bay Street. I took my wedding ring off and placed it on my lap to apply sunscreen. When I stood up, I didn’t realize it had fallen off into the sand. Once I noticed, panic set in! We searched all over the area where I had been sitting, but we couldn’t find a trace of it.
Just as we were about to give up hope, my husband searched Google for local ring finders, and The RingFinders by Tom Tanner popped up. We gave him a call, and he arrived in under 40 minutes. Believe it or not, he located my 2-carat platinum ring in no time!
Tom has over 40 years of experience, and it clearly shows—he really knows what he’s doing and completely saved the day. I would give him more than five stars if I could. Thank you so much, Tom! The Ring Finders service was absolutely amazing!

Got a text message asking for help to find a young man gold signet ring that was handed down to him by his father and it’s been in the family for two generations. After asking all my questions and getting an idea where of the ring could be I headed down to the Vancouver beach to meet him and hopefully get back his gold signet ring. With the price of gold nowadays you have to be fast because there are so many people metal detecting the Vancouver beaches and looking for gold.
When I met the young man at the beach he showed me the area it could be lost in and this search took me approximately 20 minutes to locate his beautiful sign in help continue the story another generation! I love my job.!!!

Why Rent A Metal Detector when you can hire a Metal Detecting Specialist with over 53 years of experience. A lot of people will rent or purchase a mental Detector to search for something they have lost and sadly they don’t find it. That doesn’t mean it isn’t there, it just means you still need to hire a Metal Detecting specialist, I have surprise a lot of people who have rented or purchased a Metal Detector by finding what they had lost.
This young man lost his ora ring on a Vancouver beach, the story is it could read your heart rate, blood pressure, it does all kinds of stuff. He even bought one for his girlfriend, sort of like a promise ring.
This young man gave me a great description of the area he had lost it in and the search took me maybe 20 minutes. I love my job.!!!

I was on a search for Lost Ring when a young man saw me on the beach and walked up and asked if I could help him find his bike key that he’d lost the night before. I explained that I was on a Ring search and that it was tied dependent so I had to keep searching for this Ring before the tide came in, but I assured him I would take a look after I was done my job. Well, unfortunately, I could not find his key there were people laying around the area and it was possible somebody could’ve been lying on it. So we exchange numbers and I told him I’d be back the next day to do another Ring search and I’ll take a look for his key.
I found it exactly where a young man was suntanning the day before. I love my job.!!!

I received a call from a young man asking for help to find his keys and cell phone that he had lost at a golf course when the umbrella on his cart blew into the water where he lost his clubs, cell phone, and keys. This is really muddy water with zero visibility. He was able to feel around and grab his clubs, but he couldn’t find his keys or cell phone.
I got my overalls from my storage compartment and went into the pond that was covered in green algae. This wasn’t easy because he had stepped on his phone and buried very deep. I was able to get a faint signal, but it took a long time to get the signal out of the mud, but I found his phone first and key shortly after, the search in total took me a couple of hours. I love my job!!!

I got a call a few days ago from a young dad who was playing toss and catch with his 10-year-old son in the water of Lake Champlain. His mother owns a cute little camp on the shore and it’s a beautiful place to spend a Summer day. Unfortunately, his ring didn’t fit properly, and when he went to catch the ball, he felt his ring fall off. He stayed right on the spot and searched with his hands and visually, and it had just disappeared. So he knew a fellow who had a metal detector that he could borrow. The problem was there is so many signals that it was impossible for him to recognize the right signal.
After his search attempt, he figured he needed some experienced help. He saw an article in Vermont Digger that was published last week about my hobby and The Ring Finders and gave me a call. We arranged a time he could be available to show me the area.
I got there today and met him and his very nice mom. He waded out with me and did his best to take me to the exact spot. There was a south wind blowing so the waves were bouncing us around a little bit. We made a few passes and then he decided we needed to go further out into the lake. I got quite a few signals, dug a couple targets and then in about 15 minutes I got off really nice signal, scooped it up and there it was! The three of us were so excited and relieved! He had lost a little weight and is now going to get his ring resized.
