Lost Wedding Ring Found in Warwick RI
I received a call from Steven who lost his wedding ring while doing yard work. He asked for my help and identified where he had been working in the yard. Coincidentally, he connected with me through his future daughter in law, a former co-worker of my wife. She knew that I was a member of The Ring Finders (TheRingFinders.com) and could help him. Steven and his wife thought the ring was lost forever until their future daughter in law told them about my services and were convinced that they would have to buy another ring. I went to their home and found Steven’s ring and in about twenty minutes. He was very happy to have his ring back.
Lost Wedding Ring Recovered From Chippewa Lake, Ohio!
Late Tuesday night, the 23rd of July, I received a voicemail and text from Ilona who had recently lost her gold and platinum wedding ring in Chippewa Lake while working on her boat lift. I didn’t receive the messages until the next morning, and I promptly texted her back. I told her I wasn’t sure I’d be able to assist, as my water search equipment had been damaged during another water hunt earlier this year. I referred her to The Ring Finder’s website but said if she couldn’t find anyone else to let me know and I’d see what I could do. She called me a few minutes later and said she had tried another Ring Finder, but they no longer do water searches and she was desperate to find her ring, as she was leaving the next day for a short camping trip (with limited cell service) followed by a month-long vacation and really wanted her ring back before she left! So, I told her we’d make a few protective modifications to our equipment and give it a go.
As she was leaving that evening, we made arrangements to meet her brother at the lake on Thursday around 3:30pm. When we arrived at the lake, Peter took us out on the pier and pointed out where Ilona’s boat lift was and where she was working when she lost the ring.
We headed out to the boat lift around 3:45. The water was between hip and waist deep by the time we got to the spot. There were lots of speed boats on the lake, which took the water levels even higher at times. Because of the depth we couldn’t use our detectors, so we relied on our pinpointers. We started around the area she had been working and fanned out from there. After about forty-five minutes to an hour, I found a ring! I had not seen a picture of Ilona’s ring, so I didn’t know if it was her ring or not. I waded back to shore and showed the ring to Peter. He also wasn’t sure if it was her ring, so while he texted her, we placed the ring in our find’s bucket and returned to the water to keep searching. About an hour or so later Peter hollered out from the shore and asked to see the ring. I came back to shore and we compared the ring to the picture she had just sent and, sure enough, that was her ring! How exciting! We dried off and took some pictures while Peter called Ilona. I could hear the excitement in Ilona’s voice and that’s what it’s all about! As Peter would be joining her on her trip the following day, she made sure he was going to bring the ring to her. After chatting a bit more with Ilona and Peter, we hopped in the car and headed home. Two days later I received a text with a picture of Ilona, happily wearing her ring! It never gets old making people smile!

Lost denture recovered in Princes Risborough
Sometimes the slightly odd request comes along!
I had a call from a chap who was slightly embarrassed, but asked if I could search for his lost denture? I said as long as there was some metal, I could probably detect it.
He said he lost it while talking to his friend from his apartment window, and out it flew!…..this I found amusing and had to apologise for laughing a bit.
We agreed a time, and I set off.
I arrived and was greeted by the chap, there was a distinct gap in his smile, but not a very big gap. So this was quite a small denture I was looking for, with probably not much metal for a good signal.
I chose my smallest high frequency coil, which was necessary, as said denture had been lost in a dense bush.
This was quite a challenging search, as it was also a very trashy location, lots of bottle tops, drainage and other utilities in close proximity, but with a de-tuned , this made things a little easier.
Thankfully after about 45 minutes, and not a bad signal the denture was re united with its very happy owner!

Diamond Engagement Ring Found in Tampa, FL
We enjoyed a fun night at Raymond James last night with the family at the Morgan Wallen concert. The traffic was predictably terrible on the way out and it was after midnight when we finally arrived home.
I checked my phone before bed and noticed multiple missed calls and a text saying a ring was lost. The location was back at the stadium where another concert attendee had lost her engagement ring after the concert.
Because of the time and location, I felt the ring wouldn’t have been found by anyone else and it would be best to meet in the morning to search with the help of daylight and rested eyes. We arranged a 7:00am meeting at the loss location. Timing was urgent due to the couple needing to catch a flight home home in the afternoon the next day.
In the morning, I met with the Erika and her fiancée, who hadn’t gotten much sleep. They explained the ring had flown off her hand, hit a tree branch and fell somewhere in the grass between the parking lot and sidewalk. It was obvious the grassy area had been extensively searched by hand by a group of people the night prior.
I got to work below the tree branch and located the ring in less than five minutes. It was exactly where they said it would be, but below the grass line into the soft dirt. The ring had been stepped on during the previous search! It was undamaged, but it was dirty and pushed well below the grass. It was not visible to the naked eye.
I’m thankful Erika quickly reached out to the ring finders and to Mike McInroe, who referred her to me to assist with this recovery!
Lost Wedding Ring Recovered at Honeymoon Island
Ring recovered on May 21, 2024. This recovery was another that wouldn’t have been possible without the teamwork of ring finder Steve Thomas and another mutual friend, Scott Carlson who helped with my first recovery at Honeymoon Island.
Mitch lost his gold wedding ring while paddle-boarding between the jetties at Honeymoon Island. Mitch had seen it happen in slow motion. He changed hands on the paddle and his ring popped of his finger, dropped to the board and rolled off into the water. He helplessly watched it disappear into the water below.
Mitch had done something amazing – he dropped a pin on Google maps, which had nearly the exact location where he had dropped the ring into the water. He had contacted Steve Thomas, who was out of town at the time and was referred over to me and Scott for assistance.
Scott had spent a few hours looking for the ring in the late afternoon a day or two prior, but didn’t have luck in locating it. I followed up the next day, using that location as my guide. I got there as close to low tide as possible to get out as far as I could detect.
On may way out into the water, a group of children asked what I was doing with my equipment. I told them I was trying to find a ring somewhere in the water and they wished me luck.
I started zig-zagging the area I felt the ring was most likely to be and there were very few targets out that far. When I hit a loud signal, I couldn’t see the display on my detector as it was completely submerged under water, but I had a good feeling. It took 2-3 scoops and the ring appeared in my scoop!
On the way back to the beach, I showed the children the ring and they cheered for me for finding it! It was the first time I had a cheering section for one of my recoveries!
I got back in touch with Steve and Scott to let them know I located the ring. They passed along Mitch’s contact info and he promptly met me at the beach to receive his missing ring.
Custom Made Wedding Ring Recovered at Honeymoon Island
Item recovered on July 4th, 2023
I began metal detecting around the time of the pandemic as a way to get out of the house for some exercise. I wasn’t a ring finder – I didn’t even know there was such a thing!
After getting through the learning curve – finding lots of trash, to identifying coins, then targeting jewelry and really learning my machine, I stumbled upon a post on Craigslist at the beginning of June, 2023. A post that another metal detectorist made on behalf of the gentleman, Jacques, who had lost his ring.
I felt this would be a good challenge – like a scavenger hunt with a metal detector and a chance to test my skill! I reached out to the person who made the post, who shared additional details with me and I was off on the hunt.
Jacques was an older gent who lost his ring in the water at Honeymoon Island on day 1 of his vacation. He spent the rest of his time trying to find his lost custom-made wedding ring, even renting a metal detector himself. He had seen another person metal detecting there the day the ring was lost and others had tried to find it, with no luck. Hope seemed to be running out that the ring was either found by someone or claimed by the sea forever.
I searched for this ring on 3 separate occasions, twice in June and finally found it on July 4th, 2023. It was a perfect day for metal detecting – beautiful weather and calm water. Jacques’ ring was the very first target I hit that day, but I didn’t recognize it as the one due to the photo that was provided and the condition of the ring from being in the water for over a month.
After I got home and cleaned up the ring, I consulted with some local friends – people with much more experience than I had and we determined it indeed was the ring Jacques had lost!
What came next would drastically change my metal detecting « hobby » to one of helping people recover lost items as a ring finder: the phone call to Jacques to let him know his ring had been found.
Words cannot described how happy Jacques was to hear the news after giving up hope his ring was lost forever! I had the ring packaged and overnighted to Jacques and he confirmed receiving it the next day.
I joined the ring finders group a few months later and truly enjoy helping reunite people with their lost items! I hope to be able to continue doing this as long as I am able.
