Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Warrington, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mike found me in the Ring Finders Directory after losing his wedding band Thanksgiving weekend. He was enjoying his holiday and playing football in the backyard of his in-laws house in Warrington, PA when his ring came up missing. After searching for hours and even purchasing a cheap metal detector at Harbor Freight he could not locate the lost ring. He reached out to me Saturday and I made arrangements to meet him the next day. He shared that the lost ring was made of tungsten so when I arrived at the house I brought along a matching tungsten ring so I could calibrate my metal detector and demonstrate the machine for Mike…I wanted him to have complete confidence that if I went over the ring…I wouldn’t miss it! The backyard was about 1/3 of an acre and he told me 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…5 minutes into the search…BOOM….there was the signal I was looking for. I looked down…and there was his beautiful ring! He had gone inside and was watching me with his family from inside a glass sliding door across patio…I triumphically held up the ring for all to see…and pretty sure I heard joyful screams from him and his family! He came out…lots of high fives…and amazement at the quick successful search! I was very happy to be able to come through and return his ring to him!!!

Lost Ring found by Calgary Lake

  • from Cochrane (Alberta, Canada)

It took a while to find but eventually we did. Not under the boardwalk but still above the ground. I spent a lot of time crawling around under the deck. One time being 6’4″ was not an advantage. Pretty sure I had exhausted the area, I stepped back and asked myself what other things could have happened. Then I spotted it. Sitting pretty on the joist supporting the deck. A quick snag and a lovely surprise moment full of tears of joy. Watch the video for the reaction.

CALL SURF CITY RING FINDER

Metal Detecting Service 714-944-0555

I received a call from Phill’s wife last night stating that he lost his late father’s Gold Ring while throwing a football to his Son. We agreed to me coming out this morning since it was dark and getting late.
I gridded the area with no luck so I went back to where I started and I got a nice low VDI double signal and I knew this had to be his ring. I had to use my pin-pointer in the dense grass to recover his ring.

Phill was elated to get his Ring back!

Lost White Gold Diamond Engagement Ring In Leduc, Alberta.

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:
         
Yesterday, I received a call from Tegan requesting my assistance in locating her lost engagement ring. She had lost the ring while brushing snow off her vehicle around 6:30 am. Although she felt the ring detach from her finger, she was unable to determine its direction of travel.

After conducting a preliminary assessment, I was confident that I would be successful in finding the ring. I agreed to travel to Leduc, where Tegan informed me that her fiancée was actively searching for the ring in the parking lot.

Upon my arrival, I encountered Chase, who was present in the parking lot. He had utilized snow melt to clear four parking stalls but had not yet located the ring. He had been searching for the past seven hours.

After thoroughly analyzing the area and employing my test ring, I concluded that the ring was not in the immediate vicinity. It was likely still on her vehicle or had fallen off during her departure from the parking lot.

I conducted a comprehensive search of the parking lot, extending from the exit of the parking lot to four parking stalls before Tegan’s stall. By this time Chase was convinced that the ring was gone for ever,

During the search I detected a distinct metallic tone from my metal detector, confirming the presence of the ring I pointed to the ground and told Chase this is Tegan’s ring . Chase was astounded by my discovery and expressed his disbelief that the ring had been found.
Thank you Tegan and Chase for entrusting me to find your losts engagement ring.

Received a text saying this young lady had lost her engagement ring while throwing a ball for her dog. As soon as she threw it, she felt it fly off and heard a “DING” as it hit the metal fence. She wasn’t sure if it was in the yard or over the fence.

Her, her fiancé along with a friend spent all day looking for it and tried using a metal detector as they raked pine straw and putting them in bags.

Lost Wedding Band Recovered in New Orleans Backyard

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)

I was contacted by a man named James in New Orleans who lost his wedding band while pulling weeds in his backyard and had no idea where it could be, since he’d been all over the yard working in different garden beds. I started the search using my Garrett AT Pro-Pointer inside all of the garden beds but had no luck, so as daylight began to fade I switched to my Nokta Makro Simplex Ultra and began systematically searching the yard. After about 45 minutes of searching total and just before it got dark, I got a clean signal and found his ring laying just outside one of the garden beds. He was incredibly relieved, and it was another great reminder of how rewarding it is to help someone recover something so meaningful.

 

Women’s Engagement Ring Lost in Athens, Alabama… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)

On Friday (November 14, 2025) evening I received a call from Stacey stating a few days prior she had lost her engagement ring while walking down the back porch.  It was cold and she was trying to put on her ring while holding her son.  The ring caught on her fingernail and flew off.  She heard it hit some leaves in the yard.  It was at night, so it was dark out and she couldn’t tell exactly where it went.  We set up a search for the next morning.

I met Stacey around 9:30 Saturday morning in Athens, Alabama.  Stacey showed me exactly how it happened.  Her husband, Victor told me the ring is sterling silver.  I grabbed my Minelab Equinox 900 and started my search.  After a few minutes, a little further from the porch and behind a tarp, I saw Stacey’s ring on the ground!  Stacey and Victor were very happy and thankful to have it back.  Stacey told me that she had searched that area, but there were a lot of leaves, so I’m sure it was completely covered up when they were looking.

Thankful and blessed for another successful recovery!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless…
