Diamond Anniversary Ring Found in South Johnson County

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

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!

Alton Illinois Tungsten Ring

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

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)
Contact:

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.

Rings lost Amarillo, Texas – Found

  • from Amarillo (Texas, United States)
Contact:

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.

Wedding ring lost Amarillo,Texas – Found

  • from Amarillo (Texas, United States)
Contact:

A water ballon fight with grandkids resulted in losing a man’s gold wedding ring. They contacted me the next morning, July 15,2025. I arrived that afternoon and showed them how my detector works, Whites MXT. As I started searching I asked Michael if he would like to use my spare detector and help search. After a very short tutorial Michael joined me in the search of their large yard. 46 minutes later the ring was found! But not by me. My first time to have the victim find his own lost ring!! This was amazing for me and for Michael. It is always so much fun to recover lost jewelry but this one was a rare treat indeed.

Ring lost in the ocean, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

It was early afternoon on a beautiful day at the Jersey Shore when Megan texted me. She had just lost a very precious ring in the ocean and asked if I could help. I explained that it depended on how sure she was of the location and if she could guide me back to the exact spot. Megan said she had seen the ring fall from her finger and drop near her feet in waist-deep water. I instructed her to mark the location as best as possible, using Google Maps to drop a pin, taking photos of the shoreline and the area where the ring was lost, and noting the time of day it happened. She said she’d think it over and get back to me.

A few minutes later, Megan called back, ready to move forward. We arranged to meet at the next low tide, around 9 p.m., as the ocean was forecasted to get rough in the coming days, which would make the search nearly impossible. I met Megan’s mom, Erin, on the beach that night, and we marked the area where the ring had been lost. I started by working along the bottom of the tide line, hoping the ring had washed up, but after several passes, I had no luck. I checked the photos to ensure I was in the right spot—it all matched up.

The waves were rough, with a strong rip tide making it difficult to work below the shell drop. After a while, I took a break to regroup. While I spoke with my wife and Erin, I explained that the conditions were challenging and I wasn’t sure if I could continue searching.

After about half an hour, I returned to the water to observe the wave pattern. As the tide receded, the waves seemed to calm a bit, so I decided to give it another try. Determined to succeed, I got back into the water and focused on the area below the shell drop. Finally, I heard a solid signal—and there it was, Megan’s ring in my scoop.

I let out a yell of success, and Erin was in total shock. She immediately called Megan, shouting, “He found it! I can’t believe it! Get down here!” The excitement was contagious, and everything came together quickly. By then, it was close to 11 p.m., and I was exhausted from battling the surf. We took some photos, hugged, and said our goodbyes.

This recovery was a reminder of why it’s important to choose the right person for the job—someone who isn’t afraid of rough conditions and will do whatever it takes to succeed.

Engagement ring lost and found in Whitefield, Maine

  • from Rockport (Maine, United States)
Contact:

Jenna was referred by fellow Ring Finder Dennis Boothby after losing her amethyst and diamond engagement ring at the Sheepscot General Store and Farm in Whitfield, during a strawberry picking family outing a week ago. I decided to begin my search in the grassy parking area before venturing into the strawberry patch. After about 10 minutes I located and reunited Jenna with her ring after finding it nestled in the grass and clover near where they had parked. Through tears of joy she explained that the ring had belonged to her fiancées grandmother and the thought of having to explain it being lost to her in-laws had been overwhelming.

Lost Gold Ring Recovered Prior Lake Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)
Contact:

Elizabeth and her daughter were at a friends lake house, relaxing and hanging out on the dock. Her daughter jumped into the water and asked if Mom would join her. After a little back and forth, she decide to jump in for a dip. Elizabeth took her gold ring off for safe keeping, but she fumbled it a bit and it dropped straight through the deck boards into 9 feet of water. This ring was special as she melted down a couple of other rings to make one special ring with her daughters birth stone. They tried their best to recover it, though it was just too deep and soon it disappeared into the sandy bottom. Elizabeth searched the internet for help and came across theringfinders.com and contacted me. We discussed the scenario of what happened and set up a day & time for the search.  Liz’s daughter pointed out exactly where it should be, and she was right on the spot! Recovered in about 15 seconds. Thanks for your help.

Happy I could help out, it was nice meeting both of you – Take care.

I received a call from Taylor last week. Taylor explained that she was on the beach visiting for the day from PA and she believes that she may have dropped her wedding band into the water. I took the short ride over and met up with Taylor and her husband in front of Wildwood convention hall. While walking down towards the beach, Taylor explained that she had removed all three of her rings and placed them in the same pocket with her cell phone. Later on, she had waded out to about calf deep water and pulled her phone out to grab a few pictures. When she pulled out her phone Taylor beleived that one of her rings came out with the phone and dropped into the ocean water. It was just about high tide when I initially met with the couple and I explained that it may be best to wait for low tide to try and recover the ring. Later, the same day, I rode back over and began searching for Taylors ring. I managed to recover her ring a short time later. Taylors ring was shipped back to her the very next day. Another happy and relieved couple!
Taylors review / recommendation:
“Absolutely would recommend Jeffrey if you end up losing anything at the beach! Lost a wedding band in Wildwood while we were down for the day and he was able to recover it and send it back to me! He was very helpful and accommodating!”

Received a call from Robert this afternoon. Robert explained that he lost his wedding ring on Grant St beach while playing baseball with his family in Cape May. Robert was fairly certain as to where the ring may have fallen but wasnt 100% sure. Took the short ride over into town and met up with Robert and his family. Roberts ring was back on his finger about 5 minutes after arriving. Another happy family!
