Steve and his friends were in Ocean City, NJ when he lost his wedding band during a beach volleyball match. It got knocked off his finger after he hit an incoming ball, and he was not sure where it landed. He called me and I met him a little while later to start the search. I started in the area where he stood during the game and worked back and forth in the sand court. The ring rang up on the opposite side of the net and the group was able to go back to enjoying their time at the shore in Ocean City, NJ.

The Ring Finders Metal detecting service helped find a lost gold ring at a Carlsbad beach. Call Curtis Cox 760 889 2751

Here’s another quick search and easy recovery of a lost woman’s gold wedding band in the beach sands.  Megan had lost her ring the night before and contacted me to see if I could help. Fortunately I live nearby Carlsbad Ca, So I met her husband after work hours to the location.

They weren’t really sure when it disappeared just that they parked in the dirt “Turn around” parking lot then walked down the cliff path to the shoreline. Trouble I have experienced with these calls are too & from areas with compact dirt,Pavement & public goers passing by where a Gold ring would shine,be seen and picked up.  Only one of these search areas in the photo below was worth hope or even turning on my Metal detector!

So I had him bring me down to where they hung out for a bit on the dry fluffy beach sand…Well…Sure enough,,,I turned on my machine,,It beeped and with my bare hand scoop I unearthed this precious wedding band. They were very relieved and thankful for my help. This search took less than a minute to find it..But really it just takes one phone call to Curtis Cox 760 889 2751  ((The San Diego metal detector service.)) Member of TheRingFinders.Com

 

Meteorite Wedding Ring lost for 25 days in Park Recovered and Mailed back to Owner.

  • from Ponte Vedra Beach (Florida, United States)

I had a call from a client who was from Indiana and told me he lost his Gold Meteorite Wedding Band in the grass near a park in St. Augustine, Fl. He had the general idea of the area he lost it, but informed me it was 25 days ago. I told him I would be glad to respond to the area but would be limited since St. Augustine is the oldest city in America and digging is not permitted. I was there less than 10 minutes before being approached and notified that metal detecting and digging is prohibited. I told the authorities about the wedding ring that was lost by my client and showed them a picture of what the ring looked like. I told them I did not have any digging tools and would only use my vibrating probe in attempt to locate the ring in the grass. They allowed me to continue my search as long as I did not dig or remove any other items besides trash. I was very fortunate to find the beautiful gold meteorite wedding band which I mailed back to my very happy client.#lost ring florida,#beach metal detecting st augustine,#hire a metal detector service,#metal detector for hire,#ring lost in grass

Man’s Platinum Wedding Band Lost, Found, and Returned White Lake, NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)

Shortly after starting the lawn mower to get the grass cut, I got a call from William asking if I could help find his lost wedding band. I asked the normal questions and learned he had lost the ring the day before in White Lake. I don’t scuba dive, but have a son-in-law that’s helped me before and does, so I asked him how deep. He explained that he was sitting on the pier/boat dock fiddling with his ring when his son jumped on him. That action sent the ring flying, hitting the dock and disappearing into the water. He told me the water around the dock was about two feet deep, and the clearance under the dock was about an 8-10 inches. I asked a few more questions and asked him to send me the address. I plugged the address in my phone and told him I’d be there about 1 pm (just about an hour and a half drive). I grabbed my detector and headed out.

When I arrived at his house, he was outside waiting and we drove down to the dock. Conditions were as near perfect as they could be, with the exception of the water being a little cold. I made my way out in the water and along the side of the pier. When I got to the suspected area, I started swinging my detector. Being a Man’s Platinum wedding band, I was expecting a 12 on the machine’s VDI (visual display indicator). My first target rang up as an 18, so I made another swing and hit a solid 12. Bingo! I used my beach sand scoop and pulled his ring out of the sandy bottom. I laid the scoop on the dock and asked if it that was his ring inside. When his face lit up, I knew we had it. The responses from returning a lost ring are priceless!

William – Thank you for trusting me and The Ring Finders to help find your lost treasure.

Lost Rose Gold and Diamonds Engagement & Wedding Rings at Waimanalo Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began Sunday when I received an email from Zuleyma saying, « We decided to play volleyball in the dry sand yesterday and when I hit the ball up my ring went flying in the air and I didn’t notice until it quite literally left my finger and we tried to search the area but none of us had any luck.  Also ironically I was recording us play while it all happened so if I zoom in I can see my rings flying up in the air high, but cannot quite see where they landed. » I responded,  call me immediately as I wanted to hunt ASAP knowing she posted on Stolen Stuff Hawaii and informed the Lifeguard.  Oh no!  The entire metal detecting community is going to be there.  We decided to meet at my home and take one car to Waimanalo Beach not knowing what parking would be like on such a beautiful Hawaiian Sunday.  When we arrived the place was busy but we had no problem parking.  Zuleyma’s husband Jan helped review the video to determine the search area.  To my surprise the beach was really clean until I got closer to the tree line which was choke full of metal undesirables.  With no luck in the first grid we moved North.  After no luck there I reviewed the video myself and we all agreed we were in the correct location and all the trees in the video lined up.  I moved closer to the tree line as it appeared the ring may have traveled more in that direction.  No luck again.  After an hour this was getting frustrating especially for Zuleyma who was about to call it a lost cause.  Time to break out of the box.  Since we had the North South location confirmed by simply watching the video of the flying rings I told Jan and Zuleyma to give me just a little more time going East and West through the grid and to expand out just a bit further towards the water.  Also as you know sometimes the aspect of the target can hide one direction and pop on the other.  I could see the hopelessness in their faces so I was praying this would work.  As I started toward the water I went much farther past where the ring should be then did a 180 to head back the other way.  Boom!  Super loud unmistakable sound on the Nox.  One scoop and there is the Rose Gold and Diamonds Wedding Band in the scoop.  Wait, what?  I’m completely out of the grid and probably even past where the phone was recording the volleyball game.  Zuleyma couldn’t believe it and came running over with tears in her eyes.  The beach goers were hooting and clapping knowing how long we had been hunting.  We hugged and I said, « Let’s get the Engagement Ring.  Thankfully, only a foot away the next Boom on the Nox and one scoop later.  Mission complete!  Elapsed time 1.5 hours in the hot dry sand.  The only thing we could figure is the ring although appearing in the video of going straight up and down in fact went up and straight towards the camera if not flying over it as we lost track of them in the video on the down fall.  You never know for sure until you find the ring.  Much Aloha to Zuleyma & Jan.

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Flowery Branch, Georgia 5-1-2023

  • from Cumming (Georgia, United States)

We got a call this afternoon to go find a lost wedding ring lost while playing in a large sand lot. We finally found it after covering the whole area for a couple of hours. The sand lot was a playground below a restaurant on Lake Lanier. The manager came out and told me after a couple of hours that the staff rake the lot every morning and pull the sand back towards the sides of the lot. We started going around the sides from where it came off his finger and after about a minute, we found it hiding on the side of the lot where it was pulled back by the staff raking that morning.  Note to self always ask the staff or manager how playground sand lots are raked and how often. 🙂

Lost Tungsten Wedding Band at Malaekahana Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find came in on Thursday when Margo found me through the ring finders site and texted if I could find  her husband Donovan’s tungsten ring at a beach campsite.  I assured her I could and we agreed to meet early Friday morning when the campsite opens so she could show me the area.  Margo took me to the site and showed me the area around the shrubbery.  She explained Donovan was wiping the sand off his hand onto his pants when his ring flung off into the shallow grass, sand and shrub area.  I turned on the Nox and the first target boomed.  I looked down and there smashed into the sand was a round object and when I picked it up it was a gray tungsten ring.  I showed Margo the ring and to her delight she thanked me for finding it so quickly.  Elapsed time to target 20 seconds.  I actually made it to work an hour earlier then I projected.  Aloha to Donovan & Margo!

Wedding Band Lost in Colona, IL…Found

  • from Bettendorf (Iowa, United States)

In late January of this year, Ryan lost his wedding band in his back yard.  We had just gotten several inches of new snow, and Ryan had been clearing the snow from his driveway, sidewalk, and deck.  Ryan’s hands got a bit cold and his wedding band slipped off without him realizing it.  It wasn’t until he was back inside his home when he noticed that his ring was missing.  I received a call from Ryan’s wife, Kate, who asked me if I could come out and look for Ryan’s ring.  I told Kate that I would be at her home within an hour.

I arrived at Ryan and Kate’s home and I was given a tour of the areas where Ryan had been working.  I grabbed my detector and began searching for Ryan’s ring.  I searched in all of the areas where Ryan had been working, but due to the amount of snow, cold temperature, and additional target signals, I made a decision to stop the search.  I informed Ryan and Kate that I would return after snow melt and when the weather permits.

Fast-forward to yesterday, Saturday, April 29.  I arrived back to Ryan and Kate’s home for a warm weather search for Ryan’s ring.  I began retracing my previous search area in an opposing grid.  Within about 30 minutes I hit on a solid signal in the grass.  My trusty pin-pointer located a white gold wedding band.  It was at this moment that Kate was coming out of the house for an update, and I asked her if this was the ring that Ryan was missing.  Kate was very happy and I will never forget the expression on her face as I handed her Ryan’s ring.  This is the best part about what I do as a Ring Finder.

Ring Lost in Milan, IL…Found

  • from Bettendorf (Iowa, United States)

Note: I am posting this many months after finding the ring, but I wanted to share this wonderful event.

I received a call for a lost ring in late February 2022.  The temperatures were mild for a February here in the Midwest and a gal I’ll refer to as Michelle, had been doing a little cleanup in her flower garden.  During the cleanup process Michelle’s ring came off of her finger.  It was a classic case of being mild enough to be outside, but still cool enough to easily have a ring slip off of your finger.

I received a call from Michelle and she explained her situation and she asked if I could look for her ring.  Michelle stated that the ring had more sentimental value to it than anything else as it was a gift to her from her grandson.  I informed Michelle that I would be over to her home within an hour.

I drove over to Michelle’s house and I was shown the flower garden and approximate location to search.  I grabbed my detector and went to work.  Within about 10 minutes I located Michelle’s ring and made her very happy.

FOUND by Metal Detectorist…Engagement Ring and Wedding Band Lost Outside of a Hotel in Florence, Alabama!

Christina McCree – Ring Finder/Metal Detectorist for northern Alabama and southern/middle Tennessee…call or text ASAP, anytime 24/7…610-504-6135

Just before noon on Saturday (April 29th, 2023), I received a text message from Emily stating that she had lost both her 14k yellow gold engagement ring and wedding band by a grassy hill outside of a hotel in Florence, Alabama.  Emily said she lost them the night before and that she and her husband, Mannon, had already tried searching with a cheap metal detector they bought from a local sporting goods store.  They were leaving the next day to head home to Mobile, AL, which was about 370 miles south!  Emily said that they were desperate to get the rings back.  I had just gotten home from running some errands and was free the rest of the day.  I told Emily that I would grab my gear and be on the way.

It was about an hour and 10-minute drive to the hotel Emily and Mannon were staying at in Florence, AL.  When I arrived, Mannon showed me the area they thought the rings were lost in.  There were a few holly bushes with those prickly leaves that the rings could have landed in, but I was going to save those until the end lol.

I turned on my Minelab Equinox 800 with the 15-inch coil and got to work.  I found various trash targets in the lady’s gold range, but no rings.  I cleared the main area up to the top of the hill and began expanding my grid outwards.  About 30 minutes in, I had another good signal on my Nox 800, I bent down to check it with my Garret ProPointer AT, and found Emily’s gold wedding band hiding just beneath the grass!  Emily and Mannon came over and were so excited that one of the rings was located.  I said that the engagement ring was probably nearby.  I glanced around and spotted it laying on the surface in plain view about 8 feet away!  Emily and Mannon were so relived and thankful that both rings were found!  They could now make the trip back home without leaving these symbols of love behind.  The reason why I love being a Ring Finder!  We chatted for a few minutes and then I was on my way back to Huntsville.

I’m always happy to help!  Both Emily and Mannon were two more people that weren’t aware that a service like this exists.  Emily stumbled upon the website while searching for tips to locate a lost ring.  So, please tell your family and friends about The Ring Finders Metal Detecting Service!  Looking forward to the next adventure…
