Lost ring in Superior Wisconsin lake found!

  • from Coon Rapids (Minnesota, United States)

While many were celebrating the 4th of July festivities, this unfortunate incident occurred: a recently engaged couple lost their ring after swimming.

The ring had been placed on a hat before they went into the water because they knew it could be lost while swimming. Unfortunately, the hat was put on before the ring was removed, sending the ring into approximately three feet of water next to a dock. Family and friends searched frantically but were unsuccessful.

After a thorough search, the ring was successfully recovered. Thankfully, this 4th of July incident turned out with a bang.

I want to thank you for choosing me as your ring finder. You were most generous in all aspects not to mention the delicious fresh baked cookies, drinks, and for allowing our granddaughter the opportunity to swim while I searched.

I wish to thank you for choosing me as your ring finder, you were most generous with cookies, drink, and allowing our grand daughter an opportunity to swim while I searched.

I was contacted by Sean who thought he lost his gold wedding band while cutting his grass. We talked and I agreed to come out at his convivence to conduct a search.

Although it took a little while for our schedules to matchup I went out and met Sean who took me around his property where he wanted me to search. It was a large yard and there was a few spots he thought were more likely than others including one on the property line where the neighbor had just removed some trees. Even though some time had passed the grass in the yard was thick and dense and gave me hope that despite a few cuts the ring might still be hidden there. I got started and soon finished with a small portion of the front yard and the backyard. I was starting to wonder if I was going to be able to find it as I was starting to run out of real estate. Then in the area of the side yard where the trees had been removed I got a strong repeatable sound. I started poking around with my pin pointer and there is was! Sean came out of the house to meet me, very pleasantly surprised that I had found it. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and be able to reunite him with his lost wedding ring.

Elyse reached out to me about a class ring she lost in front of her house. She was doing something while getting into a car and it flew off her finger. We made arrangements and I went out the next morning to see if I could help find the ring.

I arrived and Elyse showed me where the car was parked and what she thought had happened. She described hearing the ring bounce on the pavement a few times. They were convinced that it must have bounced off the sidewalk and into the yard. She had been tried to locate it prior to my arrival with no luck. I searched the yard and curb strips several times with both a large and small coil and could not locate the ring. I was telling Elyse that I was all but positive that the ring was not in the yard and probably somewhere on the street. It was at that point Elyse went over to the car closest to us and looked underneath. Suddenly she emerged with her ring! Elyse was very excited to have her ring back and ruling out the yard for certain played a crucial part in the recovery. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and have her reunited with her lost ring!

Lost gold earring, recovered from sand, Union Pier, Michigan, Lake Michigan

  • from Granger (Indiana, United States)


Brittany was out at the beach with her family, enjoying the perfect day. A football hit her ear, knocking an earring off and into the sand. Her and her family scoured the area, sifting and raking, in hopes of recovering it. No luck. They contacted me, I arrived the next morning and began the search, after scanning the remaining earring. Earrings can be tricky to find, many are invisible to detectors or only give minimal signals. Took like a minute and found what she had lost. Happy family.

A wedding day creates memories that last forever. Bill and Jordan never expected one of those memories would involve searching for a missing wedding band only hours after exchanging vows.
Following their beautiful reception at the Icona in Wildwood Crest, NJ, members of the wedding party headed to the beach to celebrate. During the evening, Bill unknowingly lost his brand-new wedding band in the sand.
Despite searching throughout the night, the ring could not be found.
Fortunately, Jordan’s aunt Nicole had been following Ring Finders South Jersey on Facebook and knew exactly who to call.
After speaking with Jordan, I arrived within minutes. Bill pointed out the general area where the group had gathered the night before.
Beach recoveries require patience, experience, and a systematic approach. Using professional metal detecting equipment, I completed a careful grid search to eliminate every section of sand.
After approximately 35 minutes, my detector produced the unmistakable signal I was hoping for.
Just beneath the sand was Bill’s wedding band.
Watching a groom put his wedding ring back on only hours after his wedding is exactly why I love helping families throughout South Jersey.
Nicole summed it up perfectly:
« John was an absolute marriage saver! My niece’s brand new husband lost his ring on the beach in Wildwood. He made short work of locating the ring and these newlyweds can truly begin their happily ever after! »
If you lose a ring on the beach in Wildwood Crest or anywhere along the South Jersey shore, don’t wait. Wind, tides, and beach traffic can quickly make recovery more difficult.

Two Sterling Silver Rings Lost In The Ocean Water, Found With A Metal Detector, At Casino Beach, Cape Elizabeth, Maine

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

🚨 UNBELIEVABLE RESCUE AT CASINO BEACH! 🚨

It all started with a voicemail on June 30th at 12:08 PM…

“Oh, hi, I’m looking to reach somebody from The Ring Finders of Maine… I lost a ring about a day and a half ago at Casino Beach in Cape Elizabeth, Maine… Please give me a call back. The name is Meg.” 📞

🕒 Lost for 3 Days in the Town of Cape Elizabeth, Maine Ocean waves
When I called Meg back, she told me a heartbreaking story. Two very sentimental Sterling Silver rings were gone. 💔

She, her husband, and their young daughter had been enjoying a beautiful day at Casino Beach. When it was time to leave, Meg took her rings off, tucked them into her shirt pocket, and went to wash her hands in the surf. 🌊

As she got back to the beach blanket, she bent over to grab something—and saw one ring fall out of her pocket! She snatched it up, but when she checked for the other two, her heart sank. They were gone. 😭

She and a friend searched the dry sand and the water’s edge for two days straight. Nothing. That is when her friend told her about us! 🕵️‍♂️✨

🌅 The Strategy: Beating the Morning Tide
Gary and I knew we had to act fast. We looked at the charts and determined Meg had been in the shallow water around mid-tide.

📈To stand a chance, we needed to hunt at the absolute lowest tide. We met Meg at the beach at 6:00 AM on Wednesday, July 1st. ⏰ 💨

She showed us the setup area and the path she took to the water. We had a massive grid to cover:

* Gary started on the dry sand where the blanket had been. 🏝️

* I started at the water’s edge, planning to work my way up toward him.
* The Goal: Meet in the middle, then jump out further as the tide dropped!
“Alright, now let’s go find some rings!” 🚀

⚡ Metal Detecting Science & A Sudden Storm
Almost immediately, Gary’s machine screamed with a high conductor reading in the 80s! He dug… a quarter. 🪙

For those wondering about the science:
* Sterling Silver is highly conductive. It rings up between 70 and 90+ on a Target ID (TID).
* Quarters & Dimes ring up in that exact same silver range.
* Gold & Nickels are lower conductivity, ringing up much lower.

To make things harder, this beach was loaded with iron trash—likely rebar from old storm repairs on the concrete seawalls. 🏗️🗑️

After an hour of digging pull tabs, the sky opened up. 🌧️ Gary and I had to take shelter under an overhanging deck for 20 minutes until the storm passed. 🌩️

🎯 Double Target! The « Eureka » Moment
As soon as the rain stopped, we got right back to it. The tide had dropped another 20 feet, exposing brand-new ground. 🌊💨

On my third grid pass along the wet sand, my detector went crazy. It wasn’t just one loud beep—it was a double target! 🔊🔊

One registered in the 80s, the other in the low 90s.
I yelled across the beach: “Gary! I think I found them!” Two silver targets, two missing silver rings. What else could it be?! 🤞

💍 The Miracle in the Sand

Gary ran over with his pinpointer. I scooped a massive chunk of wet sand and threw it onto the beach.

Right there in the hole… a glimmer of silver. AWESOME!!! 🎉

Gary grabbed the first ring!

But the hole was empty when we checked for the second one. My heart skipped a beat. I swung my detector over the pile of loose sand I had just dug up.

Right there on top of the pile, staring back at us, was the second missing silver ring! YES!!! 🥳 🙌

Gary took them down to the surf, washed off the salt and sand, and they shined like brand new. ✨

❤️ An Unforgettable Family Reunion
I snapped a quick photo of the rings resting on some seaweed and texted it to Meg. No response—she was rushing to get ready for work! 📲

When I called her and told her the news, she went dead silent in pure disbelief, then exploded with excitement! 😭🎉

Gary and I drove straight to her house 10 minutes later. Meg and her husband, Tom, came running out, smiling from ear to ear.
Meg told us her young daughter had been heartbroken because she loved those rings and hoped to inherit them one day. They were special gifts from birthdays and Christmases past. ✨👧

Seeing those rings back on Meg’s fingers where they belong is exactly why we do this. 💍❤️

💌 A Final Message from Meg

Later that day, Meg sent us the sweetest text:

“You guys are amazing! Thank you again! Have been spreading the word! Thank you thank you!!” 🥹

Gary and I love our jobs—we truly have the best job in the world. 🌊 🛠️

Remember: If it matters to you, it matters to us. 🤝⚓

Handmade silver dog name tag reunited

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

THIS IS AN OLD RECOVERY THAT I JUST FOUND THE INFORMATION I NEEDED TO POST IT.

After a long day of beach hunting at Sea Cliff Beach on March 22, 2023, I decided to go to a local park in Aptos, CA. There was also a dog park there and I chose to detect there first. Among the several modern coins and vaccination tags for dogs, I found a heart shaped silver dog tag engraved with the name Laika. There was a phone number on the other side. I called it and spoke to Laika’s owner. Laika was still alive and well. The owner made the silver dog tag themselves and was relieved to hear that I found it. I mailed it to the owner and they sent me a pic of Laika wearing the name tag.

Lost ring in the yard…Found

  • from Johnson City (Tennessee, United States)

Received a call from a lady whose husband had lost his ring in the yard. The area where it fell off was pretty small but the ring sunk below the grass and could not be found. They borrowed a metal detector but were unable to find the ring. I had my metal detector in the car so I headed right over. She showed me where the ring location should be. After a quick search the ring was found. Glad to help return this to the rightful owner.
