Received a call this morning.
Lost a Christmas gift from her boyfriend in the front yard.
She was unable to make the search but her boyfriend did.
Actually a pretty easy and quick search considering it was an earring (so small)
Took about 15 minutes.
Old Lyme CT, July 27. What started as a Christmas in July celebration at the beach with over 150 guest became a frantic search for a lost platinum diamond ring. Kristina the coordinator of the event was playing with the children handing out gifts and dancing with them under a huge tent. Line dancing around all the tables and tlo the gift distribution area. After stopping at her table she noted that two of her three rings were almost falling off her finger and the large diamond ring was missing. In a frantic search the crowd started searching the area kicking sand , kids digging into the sand and even a child’s detector was employed. Quick action by Alison reached out to me from social media and gave me the situation. In about 30 minutes I was onsite and assessing the situation. The area was trampled and it became clear there was no clear idea of where it could have been lost. I started but using a standard coil covering and gridding the area closest to where she noticed it had been missing. The tables and chairs were moved when possible to allow better access and everyone was supportive. I started by giving Kristina who said she was catholic and seeking help a St Anthony medal to pray for her lost items and many of the guests started doing the same. At one pint everyone left the area to go to sleep and I remained but changed my strategy and used a smaller sniper coil to better get between the tables. After about a half hour a weak but repeatedly signal in the range of platinum was identified. The soft sand was pinpointed and at a depth of 6-7 inches a solid ping was detected, sifting the sand with my fingers I felt the band of the ring and a glitter of platinum ion the sand and brought it to the surface. Some passing relatives contacted her and she jumped into a golf cart and came straight to the tent where her ring awaited her. We had several precious and emotional minutes where she came to terms it had been found and that her and the other peoples prayers to St Anthony were heard. A miracle had just been witnessed.
The gentleman, who preferred to stay anonymous, gave me a call last week as he had lost his wedding band! He had hosted his daughters birthday party in their backyard and between buckets of ice, setting up the outdoor projection movie theater for the kids, and all the clean up, he had a few ideas where it could be but had not had any luck. I came by the following afternoon and started by walking the property with him and trying to get an idea for where it might be, then he left me to work and less than an hour later I was able to locate it. The ring had slipped off near where he had been dumping the coolers out! I was glad to have made this recovery and reunited this special wedding band with the owner.
Ben texted me yesterday about his loss so we met at the beach this morning at 6:30 am. I was searching for his ring when I found a nice iPhone in the wet sand. Eventually I moved to another location where he was in the dry sand where I found his ring.
I was sent a google map location at Bolsa Chica Beach via text to search for a tungsten ring. These are more difficult when the person can’t meet you in person.
I sent pictures to verify which fire pit he was at. I circled the fire pit and on the 5th time around I found his ring. Drive to Long Beach to drop off his ring but forgot to take a picture of him with the ring.
Madison reached out to me after a heart-sinking moment—her husband lost his gold wedding band while playing in the ocean with their daughter in Margate, NJ. The sentimental ring slipped off his finger and disappeared beneath the waves. They searched the area frantically, but with the tide rising and no way to see through the surf, they knew they needed expert help.
That’s when Madison found RingFindersSouthJersey.com and gave me a call.
I was on the road and made it to Margate Beach within 20 minutes. After getting the exact location and tide conditions, I geared up with my underwater metal detector and got to work. Within 10 minutes of starting the search in waist-deep water, I heard the sweet tone I was hoping for. One scoop later the gold ring was in my hand.
Cameron and his wife were thrilled, emotional, and incredibly relieved to have the ring back. It was more than just a piece of jewelry it was a symbol of their love and memories shared by the sea.

Jayce lost her white gold and diamond ring in her back yard. After two days of searching and two new metal detectors, she was frustrated and had given up much hope of finding it. She finally contacted me and within 4 hours we were in her back yard recreating the events that lead to the lost ring. Bingo! Ring Found! One more happy customer and one more cherished keepsake back with its rightful owner! This doesn’t ever get old. It is truly an honor and very rewarding to be a part of the story.
