Cartier Love Ring Found and Returned by Richard Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

July 5, 2025 The 4th of July started with visions of a great day; but ended with despair after I failed to locate a Cartier Love Ring. I had come to the Dennis Beach where Jack had lost the ring. He gave me the area to search, but after 2 hours of sky rockets going off down the beach and over my head and the tide going out, but not far enough I called it quits until the next day.

The 5th of July was another beautiful day with the tide going low until 2:30 or so. I got ready about noon and headed to the beach. I had a better idea of the ring’s location after talking with other family members and started gridding the sandy area beyond the area I had searched the night before. I finally got out far enough that I was detecting in the water. About my 6th pass I heard the best signal I had heard all day. One scoop, a rinse in the salt water and the only thing left in my scoop was the Cartier Love ring.

There were no family members to share my thrill with, but the other local residents were more than interested in my find and were impressed with my success. Many wanted to know more about TheRingFinders.com and my hobby of metal detecting. I finally made it to shore and then to my car. On the way others were interested if I had found the ring, they had seen me the night before in the water doing something.

Back at the house and my car I was told Jack was working at a restaurant close to my home. So I was on the move again. At the restaurant Jack and I met for a quick photo and a long Thank-you. Jack went back to work and I to home to wait for the next call for help.

Falmouth, MA Wedding Band Lost and Returned by Richard Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

July 4, 2025 Right after finding an engagement ring and returning it I was on my way to Mike and the group that had given up looking for Mike’s ring in the sand.

A few questions, precise answers and I was searching after moving a few beach chairs. Their metal legs caused false signals to my detector. However I worked as close to them as I could. I was told it was only 45 seconds before I had the wedding band in my scoop and ready for Mike to remove it. Of course no one really expected to see it recovered so fast. He removed the ring from the scoop and replaced it on his finger expressing the thrill with many thank-yous and a few hugs. A couple of photos and I was off to the gate keepers tent then to my waiting wife who had stayed in our car. At the beach and back at the tent and then car, no one could believe that two “lost” rings had been found in such a short time. I guess it could only happen in Vacation Land on Cape Cod with the help of a member from TheRingFinders.com.

Falmouth, MA 4th of July Engagement Ring Lost, Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

July 4, 2025 The 4th of July is usually a day of family, food, frolic and fun in the sun on a sandy beach of Cape Cod. The 4th started off that way but soon would see frowns and nervous feelings for Erin as her engagement ring slipped into the sand not to be seen for a few hours. Searching by hand, and a digging tool or two before a desperate trip to the closest store that had a metal detector and back. Unfortunately the detector did not provide the results was hoped for.

The next thought was to search the web for help. There to results lead Erin’s group to Brian, another member of “TheRingFinders” who was to tell Erin’s husband that they would be the 4th on the list for help. Brian suggested that the try calling Rick Browne. The call came and within 45 minutes I was at the beach and met up with who I thought was Charlie but no, it was another man with a request to help find a “lost” ring. He would be number 2 on my list when Charlie spoke up and led me to the bay side of the peninsula and the area Erin had “lost” her ring.

I was shown where the ring slipped away and the holes dug while looking for it. Within 15 steps I had one signal which was from a pull tab, the next signal was the ring. I should have known it was going to be one of those days as I had left my cellphone in my car. I would have to rely on Erin, and her sister-in-law to text me the photos and information I needed to write this blog. I bid the party good bye and a reason to enjoy the rest of the day and return to making memories of the 4th. I was off to the next lost ring that was on the opposite side of the peninsula.

Rose Gold Ring Found and Returned Smuggler’s Beach Yarmouth, MA by Richard Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

June 30, 2025  Chris and his wife were enjoying the sun, sand, and surf when the combination of a loose ring, sun tan lotion and cool water working together let Chris’s ring slip off his finger. A call for help was placed to J&E Enterprise resulted in a call to me. I took the information and headed to the beach. It was 3 hours past low tide and was coming in fast. The pinned google photo showed me I should be working on the edge of a sea weed bed. It was the first day I braved the water in a bathing suit and to my surprise the water was comfortable but the sea weed patch was just beyond my reach by some 5 feet. I worked the area from the deepest I could go, inward to knee deep water. An hour and a half passed with only one dug target. I was about ready to give up until my detector gave off with the best signal I had heard. I took a scoop and missed the target. Took another scoop, a shake or two and saw the handsome rose gold ring in the bottom of my scoop.

Now all that was left was to contact Chris and set up the return. It turned out that I would mail the ring to his home address. Which has been done and I now have another photo for the Book of Smiles.

Avalon NJ Lost Wedding Band Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Lost a ring? Don’t Wait!

Call 215-850-0188

Over 425 Lost Rings, Jewelry and other sentimental & valuables returned!

It was a warm, sunny day in Avalon, NJ when Tom, Liz, and their family were enjoying a relaxing afternoon on the beach. Before heading into the ocean to play with the kids, Tom handed his wedding band to Liz for safekeeping. She held onto it while watching their belongings and soaking up the sun.

Later in the day, as they were packing up to leave, Liz realized the ring was no longer in her hand. Panic set in as they searched the area where they had been sitting, but the ring was nowhere to be found. Sand has a way of swallowing up valuables in seconds, and they knew they needed help fast.

That’s when they contacted me at Ring Finders South Jersey. I arrived at the Avalon beach within 20 minutes, ready to search. Using my professional-grade metal detector, I began sweeping the area where the ring was last seen.

After just a few minutes, I picked up a strong signal. I carefully dug down and there it was: Tom’s lost wedding band, buried just beneath the surface of the sand. The look of relief and joy on their faces said it all. Another successful recovery and a happy ending on the Jersey Shore!

If you lose a ring or any valuable item in the sand or water, don’t waste time searching blindly. Contact Ring Finders South Jersey for fast and reliable metal detecting service!

Contact:

Received a text from a fellow ring finder asking if I wanted to take a double ring recovery that he wasn’t available to go out on. Of course I said, “SURE!”

I was passed on that they were lost at a wedding venue.

He sent me his number, I texted him, he said he lost them after he put them in his pocket before playing football with some kids. Turned out he had a hole in his pocket and that’s how he lost them. We set up a time when I could be there. I also had to gain permission from the Venue. The Venue said I could come out, but I had to be off the property by noon because they have events scheduled from noon today all the way until Sunday.

I arrived at 10 am, took me about an hour, but I found them both about 7 inches apart!

When we met up, his first words were, “YOU GOT ME OUT OF THE DOGHOUSE!”

Received a call from Steph this evening after being recommended to her on a local FB group. Steph explained that her friend, Amber, lost her engagement ring while brushing sand off of her hands at Sunset Beach. She and her friends had been sifting thru the sand on their hands and knees for over an hour with no success. Took the ten minute ride over to Sunset Beach from home and met up with Amber, Steph, & the rest of their party. There was a palpable nervous tension but I tried to reassure the group that I would get the ring back. Started a tight grid pattern and recovered Ambers ring on the second pass in about 5 minutes. Tears of joy flowed! Another happy client! For more stories like this please be sure to like and follow my page!

Ring recovery I won’t forget- Pensacola Beach

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Yesterday afternoon, as I was heading home from work, I got a call from Devon. The week before, I had been away for the holiday and had to turn down several people needing help, so it felt especially good to be available — and to have my gear in the car — when Devon called.

Devon had lost something incredibly meaningful over the weekend: his grandfather’s ring. It had been passed down to him to wear on his wedding day and had been in the family for 55 years. He lost it while throwing a football in the Gulf late at night, and he said one of the hardest things he’s ever done was call his grandfather to tell him it was gone.

Thankfully, a coworker who heard him talking about it at work knew what I do and suggested he give me a call.

We met at the beach, and Devon was clearly anxious as he explained where he’d been in the water. I started making passes with my detector, pulling out some trash at first — each time hoping it might be the ring. I reminded myself that God’s will would be done either way, and I settled in for the hunt.

Eventually, I pushed out deeper into the June Grass — and that’s when I heard it. The unmistakable tone of gold.

I scooped up a mix of shells and sand — and there it was: Devon’s heirloom ring.

He hadn’t seen me find it, so I walked over and joked that I was taking a break because there was just so much random metal out there. I held out the scoop casually and said, “Take a look at the stuff I’m finding.”

Devon leaned in… and then saw it. His expression shifted from worry to absolute joy. He grabbed my hand and pulled me in for a hug.

He called his wife right away with the good news — but the best moment came when he FaceTimed his grandfather. The shock and joy on his face said it all. He said, “I can’t believe it,”!

I was thrilled myself. Moments like this are exactly why I do what I do. I’m incredibly grateful I could help continue the story of this special ring.

Congratulations, Devon — and thank you, and your colleague, for trusting me.

Wedding Band Recovered in the Gulf

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Jason asked if I could look for his wedding band that he was sure was lost forever. Gave it a 3% chance of finding but had me look anyway for closure. He estimated it was lost on a sandbar in the gulf about 50 feet off shore and within a 250 linear foot sandbar. I Started a grid and found it just about in the center of the area. Jason was attending to his baby back at the condo when I found it but the rest of his family and in-laws were watching my progress from the beach. Everyone was impressed with the recovery thinking that the search was a folly. Jason was extremely happy and I’m sure the rest of his vacation was regret free. Glad I could help!

Lost gold ring in water, Withlacoochee River, Hernando County Florida…found by Florida Ring Finder!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Bennie and his friends were enjoying the day along the Withlacoochee River swimming and taking turns swinging on a rope over the water. As Bennie let go of the rope he felt his gold ring come off of his finger and a sick feeling came over him. This was a very special ring given to him by his father 5 years ago and he has treasured it ever since. And now it had fallen into the depths of the silty river bottom! He and his friends tried diving down and feeling with their hands but the 8 foot depth and uneven bottom was more of a challenge than they could endure. Bennie called his mother and told her what happened and she went online and found Mr. Steve Thomas who is one of the Ring Finders in the West Florida area but unfortunately he only does shallow water and land searches so he recommended they call me to see if I could help them. After hearing their story I decided to meet them at the sight the following day. It was a 2 hour drive but we finally arrived and began setting up my PVC grid, my BLU3 Nemo dive system, mask, wet suit and fins. Bennie was very sure of where he and his ring fell into the water so down I went and began searching along my PVC grid that was setting on the bottom. The first 2 signals were deeper in the sand so I left them and the 3rd signal was louder on my hand held Pulse Dive unit and there sitting on top of the sandy bottom was Bennie’s lost gold ring! I really wanted to continue searching for other targets as the rope swing area was a favorite for the locals but I had noticed just before my entering the water that there was a group of people just waiting for me to finish up so they could enjoy jumping off of the tree and swinging on the rope…so I slowly ascended with Bennie’s gold ring tucked safely in my finds pouch. Bennie was intently watching me as I swam up to shore and as I smiled and gestured with a thumbs up…he began grinning from ear to ear! What a thrill it is to be able to conduct a search, find the lost item and then to return it to someone that is hurting and feeling a great heaviness and loss! And then to experience seeing them transform to happiness and joy and see more tears…only these are tears of sheer relief and thankfulness!

I always pray and ask God to help me be a blessing to each person that calls me for my assistance. How can I help you today? Call or text me ASAP and let’s talk! 321-363-6029

Mike McInroe…blessed to be a member of theringfinders.com
