Sonny called me after dark having lost a precious heirloom pendant while playing volleyball at Mother’s Beach in Marina Del Rey. I was available, and let him know I would get there as soon as I could to help him find his lost keepsake.

I arrived a little early, and phoned Sonny to let him know I was there. He saw me in the parking lot, and let me know where he was. I got with him and asked what had happened, and the area of the possible loss. I then got my equipment ready, and began my search. I searched the side of the court he had been playing in first with no luck. I then went to the other side, and halfway into the first pass, a very strong signal rang in my head phones. I dug, and as I was shaking out my scoop, Sonny could hear the clanging of the large pendant, and exclaimed that’s it, he found it. As can be seen in the photo, he is very happy to have back something that means something special to the family.

Lost Diamond Wedding Ring Near Ogden, Utah- Found

Contact:

Received a call from a couple after searching for their beautiful diamond wedding ring while working in the yard. They were out planting flowers and getting the house ready to list. Losing the wedding ring couldn’t have come at a worst time and knowing how fast houses move on the market in Utah, I made it a priority to get there as soon as possible. I arrived the next evening with my daughter and went on looking for the ring. I covered the entire area they thought it would be but no luck. We opened up the trash cans and went through the trash just to make sure. I decided to try one more time and literally close to the last piece of lawn, I got a very iffy signal that was a lot lower then what I was expecting for a gold ring. Much to my surprise, it was the ring. My daughter quickly yelled out « The Ring » and ran over to give it to them. So happy I was able to recover this one and so happy I got to spend a little time with my daughter doing it!

Lost his wedding ring in a park area around Foster Ave Beach in Chicago. He rented a detector to try and find it himself, unfortunately he did not have any success, which is pretty common when they have no experience with a detector and the area to be hunted is loaded with trash as this was. When he called and told me he did not find it I decided to give it a shot, very happy to say I got lucky and got to add another Happy ending!!

***Call a professional metal detectorist for help locating a ring in the sand-at the beach, in the grass – at a park or backyard — Charles « MD » Krug 619-762-0940***

A beautiful evening at Coronado Beach near lifeguard station 5C became a bit more exciting when a pretty young lady, Priscilla, entreated me to help her find a sentimental gold cross with diamonds that fell off her neck while running between the surfline and her blanket.  After centering on the most likely area and running a concentric, expanding search pattern, the pendant was located under 3″ of loose sand 15 yards from start point and within 4 minutes. It rang a strong 7 VID on my Equinox 900; unfortunately, the fine necklace it hung on was not located.  Her smile and joy were reward enough.  Thank you. It was serendipity that I was in the right place at the right time.

*** I was having my morning coffee when I received a text from Julie. She asked for help to find her wedding ring which got dropped in the sand during her wedding ceremony.  She did say it was lost at Little Corona Delmar Beach which is very close to my home. My problem was I had to be in Malibu by 11am.

  I called Julie to get the best directions, so I could decide if I could fit the search in before driving across Los Angeles to Malibu. Timing is always important, so it was a quick call. The photo of the ceremony on the beach gave me enough background information that helped to make this a successful recovery.

  The small gold diamond ring was found right at the top of the high tide water line. I had time to take a few photos and sent the good news to Julie and Marisa.  Later that afternoon I met them near their home to return the ring and get a photo for the book of smiles on my blog. It was my pleasure to meet them and return such a special ring.

This is not uncommon to lose a ring during a marriage proposal or a wedding ceremony. I love helping to make these special events a happily ever after moment. Call or text for help.. I will try anywhere . 949-500-2136

Englewood Beach Yarmouth, MA Wedding Band Found and Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

June 7, 2025

It was on the fifth day before Dan’s first anniversary that he and his wife were enjoying boating on Cape Cod’s water, visiting a small island and a sandy beach with their granddaughter and family when somewhere along the way his one year old wedding band slipped off his finger.

The previous days of searching did not locate the ring. After hearing of a story of one of my previous finds, Dan’s wife took family recommendation about a group called TheRingFinders and and did a web search. Her search showed 4 entries for Cape Cod and she called me as I had over 200 returns and was the closest to her. Within two hours I was searching for the ring. Dan and Donna showed up about ten minutes into my cursory search. I had gone under the swing set and down to the water’s edge with only one signal, that of a of a penny. We then talked about Dan’s area of walking on the beach and I was close, but I was not close enough. The area were a dinghy was moved to and that of a swing set, where the granddaughter had enjoyed being push by Dan, would need a more thorough search.

I continued my search to the dinghy area and then up to the swing set area, finding a button and another penny on the way. I expanded the area under the sixth swing and very close to a leg of the swing set the best signal of the day rang into my ears. A small scoop into the sand, a quick shake of the scoop and there it was – the ring that would not stay lost for the evening’s anniversary party. What a day for the 78 year old couple, on their first anniversary! A day to remember.

Lost Condo Key Found in the Sand Wildwood, NJ Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

There’s nothing quite like a summer day on the beach in Wildwood, NJ  warm sun, cool waves, and good company. But sometimes, the fun gets interrupted by a small mistake that quickly turns into a big problem. That’s exactly what happened recently when Karen’s son’s friend accidentally lost their condo key on the beach. What started as a game of catch quickly turned into a frantic search in the sand—and that’s when I got the call.

Karen explained that the boys were tossing the key back and forth, not thinking much of it. But one throw went too high, and the key slipped through someone’s fingers and vanished into the soft Wildwood sand. They spent nearly an hour digging around, hoping it would turn up, but it was nowhere to be found. With the sun starting to set and no spare key available, panic started to set in.

Luckily, Karen knew about The Ring Finders South Jersey, and she gave me a call. I was already nearby, and just 10 minutes later, I was on the scene with my metal detector in hand and ready to help.

Wildwood, NJ has a wide beach, and once something small like a key disappears into the sand, it can be nearly impossible to find without the right tools. I asked a few quick questions to pinpoint the general area where the key was lost. The boys had done a good job marking the spot where they last saw it, which made the search much easier.

Within five minutes of scanning the area with my metal detector, I got a solid signal. A few scoops later, and there it was the lost condo key, still partially buried beneath the sand. The look of relief on everyone’s faces was priceless. Karen thanked me repeatedly, saying she had no idea how they would’ve gotten back into the condo if it weren’t for the quick recovery.

Lost Wedding Ring in Waikiki Beach

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Waikiki Beach

It all started when I got a call from Karla and Harvey about Harvey’s lost wedding band at Waikiki Beach. Knowing that Waikiki is a heavily searched area for metal detecting, I called Karla, Harvey’s partner, to gather more details. I wanted to plan my day carefully because time and conditions matter when there’s surf and other elements that com into play.

When I arrived at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, Karla met me and walked me down to where she, Harvey, and their kids had been sitting. We pinpointed the general area where Harvey believed he’d lost the ring. I asked Harvey if he’d be willing to jump in the water with me to help narrow down the search. He agreed.

I fired up my XP Deus II detector, suited up, and waded out with Harvey to the reef where he thought he’d dropped it. I started a systematic grid search, pulling up nickels, pennies, fake chains—everything except his ring. After hours of searching in the choppy tide, I decided it was too challenging to continue, so I let Harvey know I’d come back the next morning.

Early the next morning, I packed my gear, headed back to Waikiki, and retraced my steps. I focused on the area Harvey described, but again, came up empty after hours of searching. I texted Harvey to let him know I hadn’t found the ring and needed to spend some time with my family. But I assured him I’d return.

The following morning, I repeated my routine—gear packed, car parked at the Royal Hawaiian—and decided to follow my gut instinct. I shifted my search to a different part of the beach, noticing more reef in this area. That made sense, given the conditions.

While scanning the reef shelf, I got a strong signal. Mask and snorkel on, I dove down, held onto the reef, and started digging. First scoop—still there. Second scoop—still there. Third scoop—and suddenly, I felt the ring slide onto my finger.

Holding my fist close to my mask in the murky water, I saw a beautiful 14-karat ring lined with diamonds. I surfaced and shouted, “I found it!” Curious beachgoers gathered around, and I explained that it was a lost wedding ring from a couple of days ago, now found. Everyone cheered—what an amazing feeling!

But Harvey and his family were no longer at Waikiki Beach. They’d moved on to Aulani, the Disney hotel on the other side of the island. I called Harvey and asked if we could meet.

I packed up, drove out to Aulani, parked in the valet, and waited. When Harvey walked down to meet me, I handed him his ring—he had no idea I’d found it. The joy and relief on his face were priceless.

Thank you, Karla and Harvey, for allowing me to be part of this special recovery. What was lost is now found. Another successful recovery—and a reminder that sometimes, persistence and instinct make all the difference.

Ocean Recovery Success in Surf City NJ, LBI – Lost Necklace Found in Waist-Deep Water, Recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Later in the evening, I received a message from Elena asking if I could help locate her husband’s necklace, which he had lost earlier that day in the ocean at Surf City NJ, LBI. I asked her to give me a call so we could go over the details more easily. As we talked, I explained how difficult ocean recoveries can be—especially when water conditions have been rough, like they were recently.

One big advantage they had going for them, though, was the timing. The necklace was lost during high tide, and we had some strong negative tides due to the full moon, which gave us a better shot at recovery.

The next day, Elena confirmed her husband, Sean, would meet me at low tide to point out the exact spot where it came off. He explained that it was a necklace with a cross and pendant, and it hadn’t broken—it had just slipped off while he was playing in the surf with their daughter.

I arrived at the beach a bit early and began searching. Once Sean arrived we surveyed the area together, and I started working a grid in waist-deep water. After digging a few signals with no luck, I finally hit a very faint tone that sounded promising. The target was deep—about 8 to 10 inches under the sand—and on the second scoop, the signal vanished from the hole.

As the sand cleared in my scoop, I saw it—Sean’s beautiful necklace with the cross and pendant still intact. It was a great recovery under tough conditions and well worth the effort.

If you’ve lost something in the water or on the beach, don’t wait—call me right away. The sooner we get started, the better the chances of success.
