Lost Wedding Ring on the Beach, Beach Haven NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Maureen called to see if I could help find her husband’s wedding ring, which she had accidentally dropped in the sand earlier that day. They were visiting her mother and had decided to enjoy a warm afternoon at the beach and do a little fishing. Her husband had given her the ring to hold for safekeeping while he fished, but somehow it slipped from her hand into the soft, powdery sand. They had tried using their children’s sand toys to sift through the area, but with no luck.

Realizing they needed some extra help, they did a quick Google search, found my page, and called right away. I packed up my gear and headed over. When I arrived, they showed me the area where the ring had likely fallen and shared the details. With just a few swings of my metal detector, I picked up a promising signal, and sure enough—there was the ring in my scoop. They couldn’t believe how quickly it was recovered after spending hours searching. Sometimes, calling a professional right away is the best way to save time and make the most of the day!

Lost White Gold Man’s Wedding Ring in Grove City, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

 

I received a call about a lost wedding band that had gone missing somewhere in the backyard. It happened on an ordinary snowy day while the homeowner was outside playing with the dog. When he came back inside, he realized the ring was no longer on his finger. He checked his camera footage and confirmed it had been lost outdoors, but pinpointing the exact spot was the challenge.

Although much of the snow had already melted, the ring was still nowhere to be found. I was able to schedule and perform a search within a few days of the loss. I began by thoroughly scanning most of the backyard with no success, so I continued expanding the search into other areas. Eventually, the ring was discovered tucked away near the stairs leading up to the deck—carefully hidden out of sight.

The homeowner was incredibly relieved and grateful to have the wedding band returned.

Lost wedding ring search in Lexington, NC

  • from Winston-Salem (North Carolina, United States)

If you have lost a ring or any other jewelry and need a Metal Detecting service to help you recover it, give me a call or text. Brad (336) 793-5698. Its important that you contact as soon as possible. I have a Metal Detecting service and can come out and help you find your lost item.

I received a call from Barry whom explained he had a long shot assignment. Few years prior, he and wife had traveled and to be safe she hid her ring in the home for safe keeping. Following return from their travels wife realized that her ring could not be found. They searched the home for a long time and are of the belief that it could have been vacuumed. Their home has a central vacuum system and Barry said he always empties the canister in a garden area and asked if I would assist in metal detecting the garden area. I advised I would be glad to assist upon my return from being out of town.

Upon my return I contacted Barry and coordinated a time to meet with him Sunday afternoon ahead of approaching bad weather. Upon arrival Barry walked me to the garden area (approximately size of a football field) and pointed out the area that he dumps the canister. I grid searched finding only old ammunition casings and square nails 3 to 5 inches below the surface. After searching and sunset approaching we jointly agreed that although not finding the missing ring we had successfully eliminated the garden as a the rings location.

In my previous life I was an electrician and have installed many central vacuum systems and asked Barry « if » the piping between the connection points to the canister rose or dropped to the canister. He advised they were lower but the run of piping did rise at one point. I suggested that he make what electricians refer to as a rat (Conduit Piston) and let it travel from the connection point to the cannister by turning on the vacuum to pull it. The ring could be trapped inside the pipe and the rat may push the ring to the cannister. I also explained it worked like the pneumatic tubes at many drive up teller windows at banks. Barry was very thankful for the suggestion and advised he would let me know of the results.

Few weeks later I read a post of another ring finder having found a ring lost in a similar manner. This prompted me to contact Barry and share the article [ Link to Article ].

Unfortunately the ring has not been recovered as of this writing. I would like to encourage anyone losing jewelry to reach out to a professional as quickly as possible for assistance but mainly to emphasize we Ring Finders are always glad to assist in any way we can.

Again, if this has happened to you, whether it’s a ring, Watch, necklace, on the beach, in the water or in your backyard give us a call.

Lost Platinum Wedding Ring near Coeur d’Alene Idaho….Found!!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There was a quick and heavy snow fall that gripped the Coeur d’Alene region, last Tuesday. The roads were impacted; the houses were blanketed and the cars that were left out had been fully covered. This was bad news for Brad. The family had to leave the house soon. Before starting his truck, the driver’s side door had to be cleared. The top of the door always dumps snow into the cab if it’s not removed. After getting the snow off the car he had to clean his hands. With a quick flick the snow shot off his hands. But with the snows icy grip, it stole his ring from his finger. The quick theft that happened on his ring finger sent a cooled chill into his hand. Brad’s brain knew right away that the slippery hand of snow had struck, and his ring was gone. The search began for Brad’s ring instantly. The snow was deep, and it was dark out. So, Brad knew he had to get a metal detector. He was able to rent one and after only finding iron, he returned the detector.  While at the rental shop the clerk told Brad about « A Group » that uses metal detectors. That group, Brad found out, was called The Ring Finders.  So, Brad’s wife Alissa called me and made arrangements for me to come out the next day. After greetings and handshakes, I walked over to the side yard and spoke to Brad about the action that he did to lose his ring. He showed me the flicking motion he did with his hand and where the ring could have landed. I started searching and right away I got a signal and bent down and found a piece of wire. Then moved on down the side of the grass. As I came back, I got the same signal right where I found the wire. So, I pinpointed and dug through the grass until the ring popped out. The ring had buried itself so deep in the grass, that it wasn’t visible by eye and the wire hid it from the metal detector.  I was able to get that sneaky ring back to Brad very quickly.  Thank you, Brad and Alissa, for trusting The Ring Finders. Merry Christmas.

Lost diamond stud ear ring, Orlando Florida…found by metal detectorist!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:


David’s wife was dropping their young daughter off at school and as she bent down to give her a kiss her diamond stud ear ring got tangled up in her daughter’s hair! It dropped somewhere either into the grass or onto her daughter’s backpack or on the sidewalk. After a frantic search someone suggested she call one of The Ring Finders! I met David and conducted an extensive search but my metal detector only picked up lots of small pieces of aluminum and a ton of small trash items. My last look over the sidewalk revealed where her lost diamond stud ear ring was hiding…and it was in one of the joints of the sidewalk and it was almost impossible to see! But thankfully it was found and returned to a very grateful young couple. I breathed a silent prayer of thanksgiving as I drove home!

How can I help you find something you have lost recently or years ago? Call or text me ASAP as 321-363-6029 and let’s talk.

Beautiful Platinum Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in West Chester, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

I was completing my 2nd ring finder mission of the day when I received a text from Jim regarding a lost platinum wedding band. It just so happens I was 15 minutes down the road successfully helping another gentlemen with his lost band…so i headed in his direction. Upon arrival Jim took me to his backyard and explained that he was playing/wrestling with his dogs when his ring came up missing. He suggested an area where he felt it most likely fell off….but couldn’t rule out any area in the large yard. As I always do I started scanning with my metal detector the most likely area the ring was lost. From 40 years of metal detecting I know that a ring on the surface has a very dramatic/unique signal on a metal detector…so I was hyper focused on hearing just that signal. I also calibrated my machine for just a gold/platinum ring. 3 minutes into the search….the signal I was looking for blew my ears off! It was 3 inches down in the deep grass and invisible to my eyes…but I knew it was there. I got out my ponpointer…dug around….and there it was! I was very happy to be able to return Jim’s ring to him…his smile as I handed his ring to him makes being a busy ring finder the best thing in the world!

Ring Lost While Hanging Christmas Lights has been Recovered in Folsom, Pa

  • from Media (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mike contacted me on Monday as he had spent Sunday afternoon and evening frantically searching his home in Folsom, Pennsylvania for his lost wedding ring. He had been hanging Christmas lights and only knew that by the time he was finished, it was gone. When I arrived he showed me everywhere he had been and I must admit I was relieved that he hadn’t been on the roof as it was one less place I would need to search myself! After retracing his steps I got my detector out and began the search. As luck would have it the ring was right under our noses! It had blended in perfectly with a patch of dried up grass and was laying almost exactly where he thought it would be. A holiday blessing!

 

Lost Wedding Band Recovered in Wayne, Pa.

  • from Media (Pennsylvania, United States)

When Allen contacted me from Wayne, Pa he was nearly certain that his ring had fallen between his deck boards. He had been taking a phone call and flipping his ring around in his hand when it went tumbling to the ground. He heard it hit the deck.
When I arrived, Allen’s partner was reciting the opening lines to The Lord of the Rings franchise, and after seeing Allen’s beautiful hardwood deck I knew it couldn’t be. This was not your typical 2×6 deck but rather some fine tropical hardwood and the gaps between the boards was a consistent 3/16”. The only way that ring could have fallen through would be a perfect cinematic fall like the one that leads Frodo Baggins to wearing the ring for the first time. I got my detector and decided the start in the flower beds beside the deck and low and behold it was tucked away under a layer of ivy.

Beautiful Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Wilmington, DE!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Dan found me in the Ring Finders Directory after losing his wedding band Thanksgiving weekend. He was enjoying the holiday at his home in Wilmington, DE when his ring came up missing. After thoroughly searching the inside of his house he reached out to me Sunday and I made arrangements to meet him that same day. When I got there he shared that he thought the ring most likely flew off his finger while he was tossing around a football with the kids in the side yard of his home. The side yard is about 1/8 of an acre and he told me he was playing football mostly toward right/middle…so as I always do I started my search in the most likely area. A ring on the surface has a very unique signature….so while I was getting quite a few signals I was hyper focused on a very unique signal…It didn’t take long…3-5 minutes into the search…BOOM….there was the signal I was looking for. I looked down…and there was his beautiful gold ring! He had gone back inside so I think he was a little surprised to hear me knocking on his door 3 minutes later!!! He and his wife were quite joyous to have his ring back on his finger!  I was very happy to be able to come through and return his ring to him!!!
