Lost Tungsten Wedding Ring Found – Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin

  • from Menomonee Falls (Wisconsin, United States)

Unbeknown to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin resident, Doug Krupp, his tungsten wedding ring was lost while enjoying a game of water football with friends at Elkhart Lake Fireman’s Park. Doug later discovered the loss and subsequently contacted me through The Ring Finder’s international directory of metal detecting specialists. I made the 72-mile journey from my home in Waukesha and arrived at the park late in the afternoon of what was a very hot, humid day. The beach was crowded with people cooling off in the pristine lake water.

Doug sent me a satellite image of the swimming area, marking the general area where he had been. A grid search was challenging. This was because of the many people enjoying the cool water in the hot afternoon. Children, as usual, were inquisitive about what I was doing. They gathered close around me and dove with their goggles to inspect my search coil with their little fingers, thus hampering my ability to sweep the lake bottom accurately. Finally, curiosity satisfied; the little ones eventually redirected their interests elsewhere and I was able to continue a straight course. Shoreline structures served as guides.

An assortment of signals announced the presence of the usual coins and pull tabs. Finally, about an hour and half into the search, the unmistakable conductivity values for tungsten invited further investigation. A few moments later, Doug’s wedding ring lay nestled amongst the sand and clay in my scoop.

I took a couple photos and texted them to Doug saying, “I’m thinking this is your ring.” He replied with an emphatic, “Yes!!!!!!!”

We later met up at a service station near Fond du Lac. Doug and his wife Amy were so thrilled to take possession of what they thought was possibly lost forever. The smiles on their faces tell the rest of the story.

Lost Breast Milk Ring Leaves Young Mother Devastated…Found in Terra Alta, West Virginia by The Ring Hero

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)

Skylar’s white gold and diamond breast milk ring recovered by THE RING HERO, Brian Rudolph

Skylar smiles and displays her one-of-a-kind, custom-made, breast milk ring which she was determined to reclaim with the help of professional detectorist, Brian Rudolph

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (also known as THE RING HERO) searches  Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses and Vehicles. He Will Find Your Lost Item! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

Skylar and her husband Tyler were out in the front of their house laying down pavers as they carefully built a pavilion for future outdoor fun. Skylar took off her very special ring and placed it in her pocket for safekeeping. This was no ordinary ring! It happened to be a breast milk ring that was given to her by her husband on Christmas Day 2024.

If you don’t know what a breastmilk ring is, don’t feel bad about it, because many people have no idea that this type of ring even exists! A breast milk ring is one that incorporates a mother’s breast milk into the design. The milk is often preserved and transformed into a stone or gem, which is then set into the ring. It serves as a sentimental keepsake, often worn by the mother to celebrate her breastfeeding journey and the bond with her child.

After working on the couple’s project for a couple of hours, Skylar was wrapping things up over by their barn and when she reached into her pocket to retrieve her beloved breast milk ring, it was nowhere to be found! The ring somehow came out of Skylar’s pocket. The young lady was simply heartbroken! The breast milk that was in the stone was the last of its kind. The mother could not bear to think that she would not go through life without her special ring. She and her husband searched for hours out near the pavilion and around the grassy areas, but sadly there was no sign of her beautiful memento.

At some point that evening, Skylar went online and found THE RING FINDERS, an elite international directory of metal detectorists that specialize in finding lost rings for people. I was contacted shortly after Skylar reviewed my credentials and we set up a time for me to come out the next day.

I drove about two and a half hours to my client’s West Virginia property. It was beautiful out there in God’s country! Skylar and I took a walk around the front lawn area near the pavilion and she showed me all of the places that she had worked and moved about. I then got my metal detecting gear out and got to work.

My search areas included all of the grassy places near and around the newly constructed pavilion. I scanned the section where Skylar put the ring in her pocket for safekeeping. I also checked out in the field where she and her husband were dumping clumps of grass and weeds. All of those areas looked clear of the piece of jewelry that I was looking for.

When I had no luck finding the lost ring in all of the places that I mentioned above, I began to spread my search farther away from the pavilion with the hope that I would find the ring somewhere off a bit from where the pavilion was being built. Sometimes people forget that they walked and or worked the ground in certain spots and then the missing item turns up in such locations. Well, I am happy to share that that’s exactly what took place in this particular story!

My metal detector gave me a very encouraging signal just about 15 feet away from the places that Skylar said she was working! I looked down and pinpointed the area with a handheld detector… and there it was! Skylar’s irreplaceable white gold and diamond breast milk ring was shining so forever bright under the grass and dirt!

When I surprised my client with the ring, there was nothing Skylar could do but begin to cry! She smiled with a countenance gleaming with pure happiness and a tremendous amount of relief! The two of us thanked the Lord for answering our prayer which we offered up to the Lord before starting the search! It was a beautiful moment in time and I will never forget finding my very first breast milk ring ever! Yes indeed, it was a very special day for all of us out there in the deep mountains of West Virginia!

Diamond Anniversary Ring Found in South Johnson County

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

Emily lost her 5 year wedding anniversary ring at a local winery on Friday night.  She looked over and over for it to no avail.  She sought assistance from the staff at the winery and even bought her own metal detector but none of her efforts produced the ring.  During a discussion of the events at work, one of her coworkers suggested The Ringfinders.

She contacted me and within a few hours we were at the location retracing her steps.  When that didn’t work, I began a grid search of the expansive gravel parking lot.  The painstaking attention to detail paid off as 45 minutes into to the grid, I heard the familiar staccato of a surface target.  Platinum with 5 diamonds, Emily’s precious family keepsake was right under my coil.

She was beside herself with joy when she got the news that her ring was safe.  Returning these irreplaceable treasures is an honor and deeply satisfying to be involved in.  Another happy (understatement) customer!

Door County Wedding Ring Rescue

  • from Green Bay (Wisconsin, United States)

I received a text from Kaden on Tuesday, July 1st, sharing that he was vacationing with his wife, Gabby, in Door County. He was swimming along the shores of the Bay of Green Bay, near Sister Bay. He asked if I would come up and look for his wedding ring, which he lost while throwing a football around. He saw where the ring fell off but could not grab it in time because the waves made it difficult to stand and recover it by hand. Kaden was able to help me locate where he tried to get the ring. I was able to use my machine and recover it by hand.  This was a short search, but a very gratifying one. Smiles all around, especially for Gabby.

Alton Illinois Tungsten Ring

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

I was contacted on July 12th, 2025 to look for a tungsten wedding band that was lost in the backyard while playing with the dog (the ring was lost for 2 days). The wife reached out to me after doing a Google search for lost ring recovery. The husband felt the ring leave his hand and had a specific location narrowed down where the ring might be located. I was in the backyard for less than an hour and returned the ring happily to the husband. All smiles 😃

Lost Wedding Ring set at Coeur d’Alene lake…Found!!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

The summer heat was making the sand too hot to walk on, so Emma retreated to the cool lapping waves on Coeur d’Alene lake. While enjoying the water, her friends and family started a game of water volleyball. While passing the ball back and forth, Emma spiked the ball. As the spinning ball flew off her hand, so did her two wedding rings.  Everyone around Emma heard her panicked cry to stop, so they all froze and devised a plan to get the rings back. The rings sank deep into the water and hid in the sand as her friends and family dove and snorkeled around searching.

The day drew to a close, so the search was called off. Emma reluctantly left that beach praying for her rings, that they wouldn’t be found by a rogue treasure hunter.

Later that night, after researching metal detector rentals, Reddit told Emma to call the Ring Finders.

I got a call from Emma while at work. Emma described her tragic day to me. The news that Emma’s silver wedding rings were lost on CDA beach was alarming. I was off like a flash to gather my gear and head to the beach. After getting in the water and Emma giving me x and y axis for the drop zone, I began searching. The wind was whipping up the waves so high the water crested over my head. I kept the search going for two hours. After completing a wide seach area, I asked Emma for more areas to search. This question revealed some discriptive details that Emma’s brother in-law had noted. There were notches cut into the retaining wall for the beach where Emma sat. Her brother in-law had counted off 5.5 notches to the west and counted out 18 paces into the water where Emma was standing. I walked backwards as I kept my eyes on the 5th notch. About belly button high water, I got a repeatable 7 signal on my Equinox. It wasn’t a silver tone, but I dug it up anyways. As the sand fell through through the holes on my scoop, a diamond ring appeared.  While calling Emma over to confirm that I found her ring, I noticed the stamp in the ring said 18k. With a dreaded tone in my voice I said to Emma, « It’s not your ring it’s a gold ring ». As Emma returned to where she sat, I finished detecting up to the edge of the water. Thinking the ring I found was super valuable I called Emma over to keep a hold of it. As I handed her the ring, she exploded with emotion. « That’s my ring! » she said. I was shocked, so I asked her to show me the photo she had of the ring. It was a match. The silver color was what Emma was describing to me, not the metal the ring was made out of.  Determined, I knew the other ring was not far from the one I found. Keeping the same line, I walked backward into the water. I was in chest high water when my detector picked up a 7-8 signal . I shook out the sand to reveal a rusted bobby pin. As I removed it from the magnet in my scoop, I saw a shining object in the corner of the scoop. It was Emma’s other ring. I pumped my fist into the air to show Emma I had found it and walked quickly back to the edge of the shore. The news I found her rings reached back to the small family sun bathing on the beach, and they cheered as Emma and I walked off the beach.

This search tested my stamina, but the sharp details Emma’s brother in-law had recorded, gave hope. Hope mixed with prayers was the recipe that found these rings for Emma.

Margate NJ Lost Wedding Band Found by Ring Finders South Jersey

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)

I recently got a call from Sami and Mitch about a lost wedding band in Margate, NJ.
They had been enjoying a sunny day on the beach when disaster struck—Mitch’s wedding band disappeared.
The ring had only been on his finger for one month.
They searched the sand by hand but couldn’t find anything.
That’s when they reached out to me for help.

As a professional ring finder with a metal detector, I’ve recovered many lost rings across the Jersey Shore.
I met Sami and Mitch at the location where the ring was lost.
They explained exactly how and where it may have fallen off.
Details like that are essential when starting a metal detector search.

We narrowed the area down quickly and began scanning.
My metal detector can locate rings buried deep in the sand.
After a few careful sweeps, I heard the unmistakable sound.
I dug down gently—and there it was: Mitch’s lost wedding band.
It had settled several inches beneath the soft beach sand.

They were thrilled.
Big smiles, huge relief, and heartfelt thanks followed.
Returning that wedding band meant everything to them—and to me.

Helping couples recover lost wedding bands in Margate NJ is something I truly enjoy.
Every recovery is unique, and each one tells a story.
In this case, quick action helped us get the ring back fast.

Lost jewelry can sink quickly in soft sand, especially near the shoreline.
Time and tides don’t wait, so acting fast is key.
If you lose a ring, mark the area and call a professional.
The sooner you act, the better the chance of success.

Many beachgoers don’t realize how useful a metal detector can be.
It’s not about treasure hunting—it’s about helping people.
The look on someone’s face when their ring is found? Priceless.

If you’ve lost a ring in Margate NJ or anywhere on the Jersey Shore, don’t panic.
You don’t have to search alone or rent a metal detector.
Experienced ring finders know how to scan efficiently and spot buried rings quickly.

I’m always ready to help reunite people with their lost items.
From wedding bands to engagement rings, I’ve recovered them all.
And every time, it’s just as meaningful as the first.

Thanks again to Sami and Mitch for trusting me with their search.
I’m so glad I was able to return their lost wedding band.

Enjoy the rest of your summer—and keep that ring safe!

Rings lost Amarillo, Texas – Found

  • from Amarillo (Texas, United States)

In August 2020 a pregnant young lady lost her wedding and engagement rings that were tied on a string around her neck while walking to the mailbox. She was frantic and called me to help. After an extensive search I recovered her wedding ring but did not locate the engagement ring. The wedding ring was hidden in some grass by the community mail box sidewalk so we theorized the missing ring was found by someone getting their mail. When asked about payment I requested a bottle of water and her smile was payment enough.
