Lost Ring Scotch Plains NJ… Found!!!

💍 The Best Cheering Squad a Metal Detectorist Could Ask For! 💍

This may have been one of the most fun ring recoveries I’ve ever been a part of!

I was contacted by Mitch after his son lost his ring somewhere in their backyard. He had placed the ring in his shirt pocket for safekeeping while playing T-ball with his two daughters. Unfortunately, sometime while they were playing, the ring slipped out and disappeared into the grass.

When I arrived, we talked through where everyone had been and came up with a search area. Then it was time to start gridding the yard.

And I definitely wasn’t searching alone! 🙌

Mitch was right there helping me mark the grid as I worked my way back and forth across the yard, making sure we covered every section. Maria stayed outside the entire time, watching and waiting with anticipation for that one signal we were all hoping for.

They were completely invested in the hunt and quickly became my personal cheering squad! 📣 Every pass through the yard felt like we were all searching together.

And then…

🎯 There it was!

The ring was finally located hiding in the grass!

The excitement when I pulled it out was awesome. Mitch and Maria were thrilled, I was thrilled, and the whole recovery just had such a great vibe from beginning to end.

Sometimes the best part of metal detecting isn’t just finding what was lost. It’s getting to share that moment with the people who thought it might be gone forever.

💍 Ring found. Mission accomplished. And one seriously fun hunt!

Loved being able to put this one back where it belongs!

Last weekend a guy named Rob lost his white gold wedding band while boating with his brother.

They had pulled near shore and somehow he lost his ring overboard. Luckily they were in about

Gold Wedding Ring Recovered in Chapel Hill

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Lorrie, a very nice woman in Chapel Hill, contacted me about finding her late husband’s wedding ring. Since he passed three years ago, she had been wearing the ring on her index finger. Although she had been very diligent about always knowing where the ring was, it had gone missing and she was heartbroken. She had torn apart the inside of the house and was positive it was not there, leading her to the conclusion that it must have come out of her pocket when she pulled out a poop bag for her dog, Henry, in the backyard. We both thought this was a long-shot attempt to get the ring back, but given how dear the ring was to her and the time she had put in searching the inside of the house, I came over to close the loop and search that one last possible spot. The area where Henry does his business is small, so it only took 10 minutes or so to cover it – or at least it took 10 minutes for me to recover the ring. It was laying on the ground (under the grass and not immediately visible) right in the middle of where she thought it was. Any recovery is meaningful to me, but some are a little more heartfelt – like this one. Another happy ending! (After giving her the ring, she begged off on having her picture taken with no makeup – this was the best I could do!)

Gold, Diamond and Ruby Ring Missing for 25+ years

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

We got a call from Kathleen, she is selling her family home and remembered that her Grandfather lost a very important ring in the yard one day 25+ Years Ago.  She said she had a dream about the ring and that it was in the front yard on the left side of the house.  Knowing the home would sell soon she got on the Internet and found us on « The Ring Finders.com ».  We came out the next day when it was 103 degrees in Garland, Texas.  Kathleen told us the story so Ellen and I geared up to start the search.  I began on the front left side of the house (just like Kathleen had seen in her dream) and had not gotten 10ft into my search next to a metal flower bed edging and got a 49-51 signal on my Garrett AT Pro so naturally I began to dig.  I turned over my first 5 inch scoop of dirt and the ring popped out.   I could not believe it myself.  25+ years and it was only 3-4 inches down.

Kathleen and her partner were so excited, tears and hugs and lot’s of « I can’t believe it » along with big smiles…. Another Great Find for the Ring Finders!

 

Water Recovery for Lost Heirloom Gold Ring in Oklahoma

  • from Norman (Oklahoma, United States)

This couple was enjoying a day of swimming with friends at a private lake in central Oklahoma when a treasured family heirloom slipped from her finger and disappeared beneath the water. The gold ring had been passed down through several generations, making its sentimental value impossible to replace.

After the ring was lost, family and friends organized a search party and spent hours trying to recover it, but despite their best efforts, the ring remained hidden beneath the sandy lake bottom.

Later that day, they found my metal detecting recovery service online and reached out for help. After a brief phone conversation, we discussed the circumstances of the loss, developed a search strategy, and scheduled a time to meet at the lake.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long to locate the missing jewelry. Not only was I able to recover the heirloom gold ring, but I also found its accompanying promise ring nearby.

There’s nothing quite like seeing the relief and joy on someone’s face when a cherished possession is returned. Whether it’s an heirloom that’s been in the family for generations or a wedding ring with irreplaceable memories attached to it, helping people recover these special items is by far the most rewarding part of what I do.

If you or someone you know has lost a ring, piece of jewelry, money, keys, or another valuable item, don’t give up hope. I provide professional metal detecting recovery services for lost items on land and in the water. Feel free to contact me—I would be honored to help reunite you with your lost treasure.

This recovery took place at a private lake in central Oklahoma.

Lost gold & amethyst ring, FOUND! By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Jordan. Jordan explained that she was enjoying a day at the beach with her family. Jordan decided to wade into the water but took off her rings and was in the process of handing them to her dad when they slipped from his grip and fell into the water. The rings immediately disappeared. Jordan and both of her parents began frantically searching but repeatedly came up empty-handed. That’s when a neighboring beachgoer handed Jordan one of my cards. I took the short ride over from home and met up with the family on the beach less than 15 minutes later after gathering the backstory I found Jordan‘s mother standing in the water, right where the rings dropped. I proceeded into the water and on the first swing, got a low growl tone. After a couple scoops of sand, I had Jordan‘s ring back in my scoop.  Jordan‘s mother explained that this Ring was passed down to Jordan through the family over the years, so even though it was small in size, it had a tremendous amount of sentimental value attached to it. Another happy family another successful recovery!

Found 22k Yellow Sapphire Ring on Davenport Beach

  • from Santa Cruz (California, United States)

A couple of evenings ago fellow ring finder and metal detector expert Tom Tanner contacted me asking if I could get to a lost ring on a beach in Davenport, California.  Davenport is about 25 minutes away from my house, and the gentleman who lost the ring was able to find Tom through the ring finders network for assistance.  Indu had lost his ring a week earlier and I knew there would be a strong chance that through several tide cycles the ring had moved, had possibly been driven deep into the sand, or had even been found already.

After several emails during a busy day at work I agreed to meet the unfortunate gentleman Indu.  We agreed to meet at the beach at 8:00 am this morning.  As soon as Indu arrived he saw where he was standing when he lost his ring and how much the landscape had changed since he lost it, but we resolved to maintain hope and start the search.

Given that he had almost an exact location of where he lost the ring I decided to take this as « ground zero » and start a spiral pattern around this point, with Indu suggesting possible motion of where the ring could have travelled given the wave action on the day that he was there.  After about an hour and extensively searching in the most likely area around the ring, I told Indu that I was not very hopeful that we could find his ring and that if he had any other suggestions I was up for trying them.  He suggested one or two other spots and then as I was informing him that I thought our chances were very slim I also added that I would search in the nooks of the rocks that were located laterally along the beach from where he lost his ring.  I got about 50′ away from ground zero and got a great signal which, after just simply moving a bit of sand off, turned out to be Indu’s ring… a beautiful 22k gold ring with yellow sapphire.

As I told Indu that I had some good news for him we were both stunned and thrilled that we were able to find it in a surprisingly distant location from where he lost it.  Mother nature has a way of rapidly moving things on the beach and this hunt was a great example.

 

Lost Gold and Diamond Engagement Ring Recovered in Deale, Maryland!

  • from Baltimore (Maryland, United States)
Contact:
I received a call from Mike this past weekend looking for my assistance in recovering his daughter’s lost engagement ring. Our initial plans to come out the next day was hampered by poor weather conditions so we moved it to the next day. This one was a bit challenging as the ring could be on land or in water about 4ft in depth. With that said, I brought both my land and water metal detectors with me. From here on out, I’ll let Julie, Mike’s wife, tell of her experience.
My daughter was going to go tubing with her husband and neighbors, so she put her engagement ring and wedding band inside her neighbor’s shoe on the pier to be safe and told her they were there. When they all returned to the pier, the neighbor’s little brother picked up his sister’s shoes to carry them back home, unaware that my daughter’s rings were in one of the shoes. He carried them on the pier, up a grassy bank and up to the house. When my daughter looked in the shoes, her wedding band was still in the shoe, but her engagement ring was gone. Her husband is from Africa and when she went to visit him and meet his family he proposed to her in Namibia. Her engagement ring from Africa was priceless to her. I immediately started Googling metal detectors and came across Jim’s website. My husband called him the next morning and he came out a day later due to the weather. My husband and young neighbor showed Jim the path that was taken with the shoes. Jim started searching on land and then moved to the water and then searched on land again a little farther out than he did at first. He found it! We are all forever grateful for Jim. He made a lot of people very happy that day!
I’m so glad that I was successful helping out Mike, Julie and their family. Great people and good conversation throughout the day!
Here are some pics…..when I first « heard » it…….
…..to when I exposed it through the grass…..
….to a clear pic of it’s beauty!

Engagement Ring Lost in the Lake-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I got a call from Sydnie on Saturday the 4th and she said her friend who was down from Ohio for the 4th had lost her engagement ring in the lake right behind her house. They were floating about fifteen to twenty feet from the dock. Before I could make it over there they had to return home without the ring. I was able to get there for the search on Tuesday. I geared up for the search using my Manticore with the Gray Ghost Amphibian headphones and a sand scoop. Fortunately the water was only around 4 to 4 1/2 feet deep there. The bottom was a very shallow layer of soft mud, maybe less that 2 inches, with a hard pan of clay underneath. That made it difficult to use a sand scoop, but I made it work. Closer in to the dock there was a lot of iron and other debris that made the going slow, but as I got further away from the dock those signals were further in between. The water was deep enough that I couldn’t see the screen on the Manticore, and the lost ring was white gold so I could concentrate on the low tones. After about an hour and a half I was at least twenty feet away from the dock, maybe a little more, and I got the tell tale double beep low tone that was very strong. The lost ring was white gold so I could concentrate on the low tones. I lifted the detector out of the water to see the screen and it said 06 for the target ID. With the hard pan clay down there it took me three attempts to get the target in the scoop, but there it was, a dainty white gold ring.
