The Tale of a Found Wedding Ring: A Bell Canyon Recovery Story

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Title: Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery Expert in Bell Canyon & Malibu
An email from davetheringfinder.com interrupted my day with Jourdan’s heartfelt plea: her wedding ring had slipped over her balcony railing into the steep canyon below her Bell Canyon home, a hidden gem near Los Angeles. As Dave MacDonald the Ringfinder, I’ve tackled lost ring recovery in Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, and beyond—I was determined to help. We quickly set a meeting at her Bell Canyon residence.
The canyon’s jagged rocks and thick brush—echoing the wild terrains of Calabasas and Lost Hills—tested my skills. My first four-hour search sifted through metal junk across Westlake Village-like slopes, but the ring stayed hidden. I returned, undeterred, with Jourdan. We recreated the ring’s fall using decoys, a trick I’ve honed in Encino and Malibu, narrowing its path.
Hours later, my metal detector pinged faintly in a dense thicket—a glimmer of hope. Navigating the undergrowth like I’ve done in Thousand Oaks, I found it: Jourdan’s wedding ring, shining in the sunlight. With a prayer of thanks, I handed it to her, her joy ringing through Bell Canyon. This is lost ring recovery at its best.

White Gold Wedding Ring Lost In Compost Bin! Bonnie Doon Edmonton, Alberta

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

I received a call late last evening from Linda requesting my service to locate her husband’s wedding band which he had lost in a compost bin earlier that evening! After asking Linda a few questions I agreed to search for the ring this morning.
I met with Linda & Keith and they showed me the bin that the ring was lost in. The bin size was approx. 4’x 5’x 3’ high. I asked Keith to show me what he was doing and he told me he was breaking clumps of dirt and that he heard his ring bounce off the side of the bin. I searched the bin, and no ring was to be found, we even pulled out some compost and placed it on a tarp and shifted through it and still no ring. I asked Keith again what he was doing and he said he was 98% sure he heard the ring bounce off the inside of the bin and that the ring had to be in there.
After exhausting all possible areas around the bin I was 100% sure the ring was not there.
I asked Keith what else he was doing before he went to the compost bin. He said he picked up some bedding plants out of the City Recycle Green Bin and put it in his compost bin. We head off to the other side of his yard to the green bin  I received a sweet sound from the inside of the green bin and there was Keith’s ring. Happy smiles from everyone. Thank you Linda & Keith for entrusting me to find your Lost Ring.
Another happy Client.

A Heartfelt Reunion: Recovering a Lost Wedding Ring After 14 Years in Santa Clarita

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Title: Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery in Santa Clarita Yards & Hillsides
Months ago, Stephanie emailed me about a lost treasure: her father-in-law’s wedding ring, missing for 14 years in their Santa Clarita backyard. Today, I met Sheryl in Valencia, hearing how it likely slipped off during a yard-mowing session gone awry due to a medical tweak. As Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, I specialize in lost ring recovery and metal detecting in the grass, yard, hillside, and garden across Saugus, Newhall, and beyond—I was ready to dig in.
The Canyon Country-like yard was a maze of grass and soil, littered with nickels and can slivers. I’ve scoured Acton hillsides and Agua Dulce gardens, so I methodically gridded the space with my metal detector. Near the end, a faint 13-15 signal hummed in Lancaster-style terrain. Eight inches deep, past Palmdale sod layers, I unearthed the ring—a relic of love lost in a Quartz Hill backyard. Sheryl’s tears turned to joy as I handed it over, a miracle 14 years in the making.

Ring Lost On Popular Beach Location Found One Month Later By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Bogue Inlet Pier – Emerald Isle, NC

Lauren visited Bogue Inlet Pier on September 7th with her son as was wading in the surf when a larger wave knocked her over.  She told me her hands went into the sand and she felt her chocolate diamond ring slide off of her finger.  She was very upset but noticed a man out with his detector and went to him for help.  Bogue Inlet Pier (BIP) gets a lot of beach traffic and also many detectorist come there to search for « treasures ».   After being unable to find her ring, the gentleman suggested she contact Crystal Coast Ring Finders.  I made plans to hunt the very next low tide early in the morning and only a few hours after the loss of the ring.  The surf was still very strong and I too was unsuccessful.  Lauren was very upset when I talked with her and I felt terrible I could not make the recovery that morning.  I live near BIP and each time I went there to hunt the beach, I made it a point to search the area of Lauren’s lost ring.  Recently, we had some sand movement that allowed the replenished beach sand to move.  This created a low spot near the water’s edge.  To my surprise, after so many days lost and I’m sure, many other metal detectors hunting the same area, her ring was rescued on the evening of October 7th.  It was about 50 yards further West on the beach.  I had not met Lauren yet and messaged her to tell her I needed her to fill out my standard search contract.  We agreed to meet at her father’s business.  After we met and she completed the search contract without knowing I had her lost ring,.. I gave her one of my business cards.  When she turned the card over, her lost ring was taped to the back of the card.  She burst into tears.  I was very happy that something very good happened to Lauren this year as she explained it hadn’t been going well.

A Tale of Lost Love Rediscovered: The Recovery of Cielo’s Engagement Ring at East Beach Santa Barbara

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery at East Beach, Santa Barbara
A distress call from Ian broke the calm of Sunday evening: his fiancée, Cielo, lost her engagement ring to the ocean tide at East Beach in Santa Barbara. Entrusted to Ian while she swam, the ring slipped away, swallowed by waves and sand. Ian turned to Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, the expert for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara, from East Beach to Hammonds Beach, to save the day.
Tuesday dawned with hope. I met Ian and Cielo at Hendry’s Beach, my metal detector ready to tackle Bates Beach-like tides and Loon Point Beach-style sands. Gridding the shoreline—a method I’ve perfected at Leadbetter Beach and Butterfly Beach—I hit a faint signal after initial misses. Digging into the damp sand near Summerland Beach’s edge, I found it: Cielo’s ring, shining in the sun. Their joy echoed from Miramar Beach to Thousand Steps Beach.

Diamond Platinum Ring Lost On Beach Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Emerald Isle, NC

JoEllen was spending time with her parents sitting on the Emerald Isle beach along the shoreline.  They were sitting down by the water so they could put their feet in the waves.  She had explained to me she had taken off her very special ring and placed it in her glasses case prior to going to the beach.  While on the beach, she decided to put on her glasses and forgot the ring was also in the case.  It wasn’t until the next morning she had realized the ring was missing and she called Crystal Coast Ring Finders.  The beach sand was very soft and very little items were found during the search.  Her ring was eventually found under about 12 inches of sand.  This was a very challenging search but when you can successfully return an important item to the owner, it makes it worth the effort!

Swansboro Cast Net Fling Results In Lost Class Ring

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

SWANSBORO, NC

Bailee was spending the day with her parents along the White Oak river trying to catch shrimp using a cast net.  They were throwing the net from a high wooden walkway.  During one toss, Bailee’s gold college class ring slipped off of her finger into the rivers soft muddy bottom.  Bailee’s father started an online search and found Crystal Coast Ring Finders.  Just after the call, I was on my way.  To my surprise, getting close to the ring was a challenge in itself as the bottom was very soft in places and water access was also a bit of a challenge.  After pulling up various items of trash, I locked onto a strong 12 signal on the Minelab Equinox 800.  The scoop was filled with the black mud but the signal was no longer on the bottom.  After a few seconds of sifting out the mud and debris, Bailee’s ring was shining in the bottom of my scoop.  I loved the reaction from her as her eyes lit up and she jumped with joy

 

Emerald Isle Fishing Trip Involves Lost Ring Almost Getting Away

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

 

David, Kayla and her mother were spending an evening on the beach fishing the shoreline.  Kayla had taken off her engagement ring and placed it in a small bowl.  Just after David caught a fish, Kayla headed down to the water to get a closer look.  Unfortunately, the bowl, holding Kayla’s ring spilled onto the beach just as darkness was setting in.  I happened to be in the area about an hour later and David approached me to ask for my help finding this wonderful ring.  After a few passes and as they were packing up to leave, I was able to pull her ring from the beach.  I was very happy to return this for them as Kayla’s mother told me when I began searching that David had just returned from military service in Afghanistan.    I thank him and all that protect us for their service to our country!

LOST WEDDING RING HONEYMOON ISLAND DUNEDIN, FL. …FOUND!!!

  • from Dunedin (Florida, United States)


LOST A RING OR OTHER METAL VALUABLE IN A GRASSY OR SANDY AREA? JEWELRY SLIP OFF OF YOU WHILE WORKING OUTSIDE OR SWIMMING? PLEASE CALL ME ASAP AT (843)995-4719. I OFFER A FREE METAL DETECTING SERVICE, REWARD OPTIONAL BUT APPRECIATED UPON RECOVERY.

 

Samantha along with her husband, daughter and two dogs were visiting Honeymoon Island State Park from the Gainesville area about three hours away where they had recently moved from New Hampshire. In the process of throwing a rock in the water for her dogs to chase after, both Samantha’s engagement ring and wedding band flew off of her finger into the water. Fortunately she was able to recover the engagement ring just a few feet ahead at the edge of the water but the white gold with diamonds band flew further out into almost knee deep water. After a frantic search in near dark conditions with the park ready to close, Samantha and her family could not find the band. Another person on the beach at the time suggested to Samantha to reach out to me and after finding me through the Ring Finders page she messaged me on the way home that night. She provided enough information about the location and tide time of loss that I was able to begin the search the next morning.  I sent Samantha photos of the beach area and she marked them up to help better define the location of loss so I began grid searching the water. I searched for a few hours in the morning and several in the afternoon until a storm ran me off but I found only a couple of pairs of sunglasses, a toy plane, fishing weights, several coins and some beach trash. Even though I knew I was looking for white gold, I dig every target that is just several inches deep. I messaged Samantha and told her I would be back out searching the next morning with Jim, a fellow detectorist who I had met on the beach during a previous search and recovery. After a 45 minute search the next morning with me on one end of the search area and Jim on the other, I hit a target that gave me a promising 5-6 on the VDI of my Equinox 600 in about knee deep water and after a couple of scoops I had recovered Samantha’s wedding band! I messaged Samantha with several photos and told her that her prayers had been answered. Samantha and her family made it back to Honeymoon Island a few days later and I met them there to return the wedding band. Samantha, thank you for contacting me and trusting me to recover your ring. And thank you for the beautiful reward! Good luck to you with your business ventures (www.woofensniffer.com) in Florida.

 

 

North Myrtle Beach Ear Ring Find Leads To Lost Washington, NC Ring Being Found

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

John found out about his friend’s lost ear ring being found by Ring-Finder Jim Wren in the North Myrtle Beach sand.  It was that moment John discovered the great service The Ring Finders provide.

John had lost his gold wedding band two month prior.  John was spending the day at a family member’s house playing with the kids all over the yard.  This is when the ring fell off without John realizing it was gone.  This ring had very special meaning as it belonged to his Grandfather.  John messaged Crystal Coast Ring Finders and a day was planned to search the whole yard.  Communication was very important to try to pinpoint the location of activity but the yard was full of various debris making this search difficult.  Persistence paid off as the ring was found near a buried metallic item in the backyard.  The sun was hot and the bugs were hungry.  I was very happy the search was a success.
