Lost wedding ring found in Zanesville.
I received a text from a young lady needing help finding her husband wedding band he lost while playing kickball with his 2 boys 3 days ago!! Here is her story
On the evening of April 24th, my husband lost his wedding ring while playing kickball with our two young sons. He mentioned feeling it slide off his finger; however, given the activity, it was possible it had been lost earlier while throwing the ball. After an unsuccessful search Thursday night, I purchased a basic metal detector from Harbor Freight, quickly realizing that metal detecting is far more challenging than it appears.
Despite searching throughout Friday, we were unable to locate the ring. By Saturday, feeling disheartened, I reached out to several metal detecting groups on Facebook seeking assistance and advice. A kind individual directed me to https://theringfinders.com/Steve.Wagner/ website, where two local searchers were listed. I sent messages to both, and within minutes, Steve responded and offered to call. During our conversation, he explained that he was approximately an hour away but was willing to travel to assist us that very same day. True to his word, within two hours, Steve arrived at our home ready to help.
While I remained inside with the children, Steve conducted a thorough search of the yard. A short time later, he knocked on our door to update me. He explained the areas he had covered and noted that the length of the grass made the search more difficult, suggesting that mowing could improve future searches. He then casually mentioned finding a “quarter.” I laughed and held out my hand—only for Steve to drop my husband’s wedding ring into my palm.
The flood of emotion I felt in that moment is difficult to put into words: overwhelming relief, profound joy, and immense gratitude. This ring is not merely a piece of jewelry; it is a symbol of deep love, commitment, and countless memories.
We cannot adequately express how thankful we are for Steve’s kindness, professionalism, and dedication. His willingness to travel, his prompt response, and his genuine passion for helping others brought our family an indescribable sense of relief and happiness. It is clear that Steve finds true fulfillment in reuniting people with their most treasured possessions.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Steve. We will be forever grateful.
Sincerely,
The Hastings Family


It was a perfect beach day, so John and Pat decided to make the most of it. They packed up their beach gear and headed out early to soak up some rays. John was enjoying the waves when he realized his wedding ring was missing. He looked for quite some time, without any luck, and thats when his wife Pat, decided to make a call to me NJ Ring Finder. With the ring being lost in the waves, it was imperative I head right out, but there were some violent storms surrounding the entire Jersey Shore area. I will do many crazy things to recover items, but will never go to the beach with any lightning in the area. I waited for the storm to pass by and headed out to the spot. I started around mid tide and worked up higher without any luck. As I was looking around I noticed there was another person very close with a metal detector that possibly could have found this ring. By then John had arrived and confirmed I was in the right spot. I showed him the other person, and suggested he scoot over and ask him if he happened to find a ring. I continued searching and just a few seconds later my machine sounded off that sweet low tone of GOLD. Sure enough, Johns ring was in my scoop, so I whistled to get his attention before he had gotten over to the other metal detector person. John was amazed I was able to find his ring, and quickly messaged his wife Pat to tell her the good news. Another fantastic recovery for NJ Ring Finder in 2024 !!!!









Wolfie contacted me about locating his brand new wedding ring. He explained that after spending the day at the beach, he notice his ring went missing after they returned home for the day. Unfortunately, this happens quite often with newlyweds, as they are not used to having the ring on their hand, so it hasn’t become habit to notice it missing. I wasn’t able to head right out as I usually do, but assured him I would be out later closer to low tide. I had him do all the essentials in the mean time, pin location in google maps, take pictures of the location, secure the area if possible, and make some kind of identifying mark of the spot just encase all other measures failed. It was very dark that night which limited my visibility, even with the bright headlamp. As I was still maneuvering to the pinned location, Wolfie showed up and put me right on the spot they were set up that day. Within about 5 minutes my metal detector sounded off a sweet low tone, which was consistent with the ring he had described. Sure enough, Wolfe’s ring was now safely in my sand scoop, soon to be back on his finger, just after a few quick pics for my recovery story.
