Safety First on Emerald Isle Beach Leads to Lost Charms Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Tindra

While applying sunscreen, Tindra noticed that the clasp on her necklace had come undone, causing her charms to fall into the soft sand below. Tindra managed to locate one of the before my arrival. Since she knew the general area to search, the recovery of the final charm was swift, and Tindra expressed great gratitude.

Tindra explained:  « The charms are family heirlooms from my family in Sweden.  They’re gifted to babies when they’re born and one of my charms is over 100 years old.  The « T » that I lost was from my Grandpa and gifted to me when I was a baby »

 

Lost Ring – Gulf Shores, Al

I was working away on my seashell art when I got a call from Gary saying he lost his wedding ring at the beach. Well, actually his wife lost it after he gave it to her for “safe keeping” while he was digging in the sand. Hey, it happens ! Since I was tied up and my best detecting buddy and Ringfinders partner Cheryl was closer, I called her to see if she could take care of it. And boy, did she ever ! It took longer to turn on her machine and headphones than it did to find the ring ! Three whole swings of her detector and it was back on Gary’s finger. Awesome recovery !

 

 

Diamond Wedding Rings lost and Recovered, Monmouth Beach NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Early on Monday morning, Marim texted me inquiring about my services to recover her lost wedding set. The day before, she had taken off her three rings and placed them on a blanket while applying sunblock. Later that day, thunderstorms moved in, and in the rush to leave, she forgot about the rings. She shook out the blanket, and they likely fell into the sand. It wasn’t until she arrived home that she realized what had happened. She and a friend drove back to the beach that evening, searching with flashlights, but with no luck.

When Marim contacted me, I knew I had to act quickly, as the area of the beach they were lost on was popular with other detectorists. The only problem was that she wasn’t sure exactly what beach they had been at,  as her friend had driven and she didn’t visit often. After several texts and phone calls with her friend, we agreed to meet at a nearby grocery store. From there, I followed her and her friend to the beach.

Luckily, it was a relatively quiet, wide stretch of sand, and we were the only ones there on that beautiful morning. Marim was confident we were in the right spot because she could see drag marks in the sand, and she used an app to track her family’s location, which returned us to the exact spot. After only a few minutes of searching, all three rings were safely in my scoop and back on her finger.

Marim was completely relieved. Fortunately, the beach was a private beach, with limited locations for the general public, or there might have been a good chance that someone else would have found the rings before we got there.

Lost Heirloom Gold Necklace Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders Metal Detector Service – Emerald Isle, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Morgan was spending time with his family in Emerald Isle.  While on the beach, Morgan decided to go surfing with his brother and removed his necklace before heading out into the surf.  Upon returning, he had forgot about the necklace and packed up quickly and left the beach.  Morgan stated he and 12 other people searched for 3 hours that same evening and he came back the following morning to search for 2 additional hours and could not find his lost heirloom necklace.  Morgan reached out to me later that morning and I arrived shortly afterwards to meet Morgan’s father.  Morgan needed to get back home (out of town) and his father showed me the search area on the beach.  It took me less than 30 minutes to pull Morgan’s lost necklace from the high tide line of the beach.  This was a very memorable recovery and everyone involved was so thankful.  (Morgan’s father in the recovery photo)

Beach Haven, LBI: A cross was lost in the sand. NJ Ring Finder Edward Trapper is ready to help you find it.”

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

I received a call from Chad about locating his lost cross on a Jersey Shore beach. He explained that while playing football, one of his friends tackled him, and when he stood up, his necklace was broken. Luckily, Chad was still at the beach, and I was available to head right over to his location on Long Beach Island (LBI).

When I arrived, Chad walked me through the areas they had been in and pointed out the exact spot where his necklace had broken. I began by searching a 30-foot-wide area but only found a couple of coins. I then moved to another section where they had been catching passes but came up empty-handed again.

Puzzled as to why the cross wasn’t where Chad was tackled, I decided to return to the original spot and change the frequency on my metal detector. Sure enough, I picked up a faint signal that turned out to be Chad’s cross. Another successful recovery for the 2024 season!

Gold Necklace Pendant Lost From Broken Chain Found In Pine Knoll Shores, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Jim was walking along a wooden pathway near the Pine Knoll Shores coastline and stopped to stretch his aching back.  While bending over the railing to stretch out his muscles.  As he raised up, his gold necklace snagged part of the railing.  This caused his sentimental gold cross to fall about ten feet into the shrubbery and sand below.  Jim had a couple of guys go in and look for the missing cross unfortunately, they were unsuccessful.  One of the nice gentlemen, reached out to Crystal Coast Ring Finders to see if a metal detector would locate the lost gold.

Because of scheduling conflicts and weather conditions, the search was postponed for a few days.  I met Jim in the morning and he showed me the location.  This was a difficult area to even squeeze into for searching and once I arrived below the railing, I began my search using my metal detector as well as my Garrett hand held pinpointer.  I came across many nails, screws and some fencing wire during the search and eventually worked my way down hill to where the men, who searched previously before me,  had worked some of the sand into a pile.  This was below the obvious area just below the railing.  A few passes with my detector showed more nails and then a very good signal.   After I grabbed a handful of the sand & debris, I spotted a very dirty golden cross in the pile.  I met Jim at my truck and he declined having his picture taken so you see a picture of me after a very dirty, sweaty search.

Ring lost at Coronado found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Aaron called me saying that his fiancee Katie lost her engagement ring in the dry sand. She had removed it to apply some lotion, set it in her hat, and in the process of them setting up the umbrella and blanket, the ring ended up missing. Later, they had also moved to another location in the wet sand 80 feet away, so, it could be there also. I started in the dry sand which was the most likely. Aaron pointed out the original spot where they had the umbrella planted, so, I started just to the side of that. First pass, nothing, but, two thirds of the way back on the second pass, I got the sweet sound that rang up a solid 25 on my Equinox 900. Poked the pin pointer into the sand and pulled out a beautiful gold ring. A tearful Katie was so happy to have her precious love token back again. A pleasure to meet you both and thank you for the reward.

When I got there Nadia showed me what happened, and gave me a general area of where the ring might be. I began my search pass after pass, finding a few pieces of metal until I got a good tone in the head phones. I dug, and there in the scoop was a beautiful class ring that I was able to give back to Nadia. The family was very happy that they would be able to go back home with everything complete.

Ring lost at a San Diego park found.

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Yanni was at a local park enjoying the day and the various amenities, including playground, grass, and pushing her child on the swings. Somehow, afterward, she discovered her wedding ring was missing from her finger. Since her husband also had once lost his ring and had it found by us, she knew who to call. I arrived a bit early and decided to hit the swings first since nobody was on them. I got about half way done when it seemed EVERYONE wanted to swing. I abandoned the search there and went over to the tot lot to check the playground area. Mostly rubber, but, there was some sand areas I was able to quickly eliminate. I then walked over some grass areas on the way back to the now vacant swings. I got just about done with the swings when I got THE signal. Sure enough, just a few inches down in the wood chips, I found a gold ring. You can see in the one photo how easy a gold ring can hide in wood chips. Yes, it’s there in the center on top! Not knowing what her ring looked like, since she hadn’t arrived yet to describe it or even show me the exact search area, I stored it and continued to detect until she arrived. A few minutes later, Yanni arrived. I asked her to describe the ring, but, instead, she showed me a photo. Bingo! I pulled out the ring and said « yup, that sure looks like the one » as I held it up to the picture. A relieved Yanni can now go about her day with a complete finger. A pleasure meeting you and thank you for the reward.

 

 

 

Pendant lost at La Jolla Shores found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Adam was playing ball at La Jolla Shores beach when he discovered that his necklace had broken and a treasured pendant was missing. He and his friends searched for it without success. A referral got him to TheRingFinders.com website and my contact info. When I received the call, I was out detecting with a buddy. We were about done anyway, so, we jumped into his car and headed to his house so I could jump into my truck and head out to the beach. When I got there I lucked into a parking spot and contacted Adam. Once on the site, I got the story and found the search area was relatively small. Less than 5 minutes later without a signal so far, I got a steady tone on my Equinox 900 and judging by it and the number readout that this was the probable target. Pin pointer poked into the sand located the object and sure enough, a beautiful pendant came to light. A happy Adam can now relax and enjoy the rest of the day and evening. A pleasure to meet you and thank you for the reward.
