3 PLATINUM DIAMOND SET LOST IN KANNAPOLIS, NC… FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

This young lady lost her beautiful platinum diamond ring set while cleaning up around some shrubs in her back yard with her husband.

At one point she looked down, at her hand and saw they were missing! She was so upset! They looked around the area for a while but couldn’t find them. Mr. Glen googled metal detecting services and found me “THERINGFINDERS.com” page and sent me a text. Mr. Glen also called his son and his son was going to buy a metal detector and try and find it. But Mr. Glen wanted someone that knew how to find them to come out and try first. We set a day and time for me to come out.

I make the drive, after work and found her rings at the base of one of the shrubs they had been cleaning up in less than 5 mins!

They both were so happy and so grateful! I love seeing folks with a smile and full of joy after something as priceless, as these rings were to them, found and returned!

Platinum wedding ring set recovered

  • from Denver (Colorado, United States)

When Marissa reached out to me earlier this week, determined to find her wedding ring lost during yard work, I knew we had a challenge ahead. Given the urgency of the situation, I quickly enlisted the expertise of Stephanie Hobbsto take on the search effort as I was not able to get away. Stephanie promptly contacted Marissa, and together they mapped out a plan to scour the yard on Friday. Despite an extensive search that spanned a couple of hours and revisiting some areas multiple times, Stephanie remained optimistic and scheduled a follow-up search for Saturday morning. Undeterred by the obstacles that lay before us – from metal yard edging and woven wire fencing to reinforced concrete and sprinklers – we embarked on a meticulous search. After an hour of searching, I made a few adjustments to my Manticore, methodically working along the wire fence before making my way along the yard edging. Suddenly, a distinct two-tone signal stood out, and with careful excavation, we uncovered the wedding band nestled beneath the mulch. A surge of excitement fueled my next move, and with another swing, the two-tone signal rang out once more, revealing the engagement ring. Overcome with emotion, Marissa’s tears of worry gave way to tears of joy.

Lost Ring at a Construction Site in Woolwich NJ

  • from South Jersey (New Jersey, United States)

Kevin called me after a friend of one of my successful recoveries referred me. He lost his 

titanium wedding band while at work. He was at a large construction project, working with moving sprinklers & hoses from different lots. It could be on 1 of 4 lots. We agreed on a 6:30 am time for the search.

I met Kevin at the construction site. It is a huge new housing development. He showed me the 4 properties that he was working on. The lots were not that large. I started on the 1st one, no luck. Moved to the second lot, strike 2. The third lot was the biggest, strike 3. But I was not out yet…

The fourth lot, about 5 minutes in, I finally got a good tone. Spread the grass from the newly laid sod, and there was Kevin’s ring. I took some pictures, then called Kevin to come to the 4th lot. He showed up about 5 minutes later. I asked him if there was any other place it might be, he went to the bed of his pickup and started looking there. I held up his ring while we continued to look. The look on his face when he realized that I was holding his ring was priceless. He explained that he was leaving the next day for vacation with his wife & kids to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary. 

I asked him what his wife would say when she found out he had his ring back. He decided to FaceTime her while I was there. She couldn’t believe it when he held up the ring for her to see. I hope they had a GREAT vacation!

How to Find a Lost Ring in the Yard in Huntsville, Alabama

Derrick texted me on Tuesday (April 14, 2026) stating he needed help finding his girlfriend’s (Rachel) rose gold ring with diamonds and a sapphire in Huntsville, AL.  I asked how the ring was lost.  Derrick replied that him and Rachel had gotten into a little argument, she took off the ring and handed it to him, and he tossed it towards the backyard.  This is definitely not the first and won’t be the last ring toss search I’ll receive.  It actually happens way more than people think, and I really appreciate their honesty.  It’s very important having all the fine details, because I can only find something if I’m searching in the right area.  I told Derrick that I’d be more than happy to help and that I could conduct a search when I was off from work on Friday or the weekend.

I met Derrick and Rachel on Friday morning at 9am.  I had Derrick stand in the same spot and do a couple of test throws.  Derrick felt it was just a light toss and Rachel thought he hurled it.  I decided to start searching past the chain link fence in the backyard by where the test rings landed.  Derrick and Rachel moved a trampoline out of the search area and I got to work.  I made a couple of grid line passes and was about to start checking the neighbor’s yard.  I decided to search the small strip of yard before the fence (where Derrick was standing) first, in case it was just a light toss; and sure enough, there was Rachel’s ring!  Woo-hoo, thank you, Lord!  It had only landed about 10 feet away.  Rachel and Derrick were so happy to have the ring back.  They both felt really bad about the toss; but hey, things happen.  We’re all human and sometimes we let emotions get the best of us.  Again, I just really appreciated them being honest with how the ring was lost.

We chatted about some of my prior searches for a few minutes before I headed home.  Until the next one, please take care and God bless!

LOST GOLD HEIRLOOM CLASS RING IN DURHAM, NC…..FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I received a text from a young man at Duke University. He stated he lost a family heirloom class ring. I told him I’d come out tonight and see if I could find it.

I get there and get the story. He was playing frisbee and threw it awkwardly when he felt the ring fly off but didn’t see where it landed.

I start my search and in about 20 mins I found the lost ring in the area of about where he felt it had to have landed. It was found based on the information provided.

I asked him if he could share the history of the ring.

This is a short story of the ring:

“The ring was from my great uncle’s high school graduation in 1953. He later became an army officer and passed away from his service before I was born (I was named after him).

It was then given to my uncle, who passed away, then to my dad who gave it to my sister, who passed it to me. It’s now been in our family for 73 years.”

I was so glad this one was found and returned! All ring recoveries are important, but the sentimental and heriloom ones are the most rewarding.

Kirkwood, Missouri Lost Platinum Ring

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

 

I was unloading bags of mulch from my truck bed. When I was taking a couple bags off my hand slipped and my wedding ring went flying. I didn’t see it flying in the air but heard it hit the deck to the side of the garage which has stairs that down one level. I could not tell if it was on top of the deck or side of the deck that the ring hit. But a heard a thud type sound and then the ring was gone. I looked around and could not see anything. I also borrowed a friend’s metal detector and could not find it. Jeremy came out and found it so fast I couldn’t believe it. Thank you so much!

Lost Diamond Wedding Ring Recovered at Camp near Marble Falls

Marble Falls, Texas — A cherished diamond wedding ring that went missing during a weekend at Camp has been successfully recovered, thanks to the professional metal detecting expertise of Chris Dean, a member of TheRingFinders.com.

Terri, who had been attending activities at the camp, realized her ring was missing. By carefully retracing her steps after reviewing photos that showed it on her finger earlier in the day, and absent later, she was able to narrow the search to a few specific locations within the camp.

After securing permission from camp officials, arrangements were made for a targeted search. Traveling approximately 350 miles, Terri and her husband met with Chris who also traveled to the Marble Falls from Kerrville. Chris determined the most likely location of the loss to be the camp’s volleyball court—an area that had already been searched unsuccessfully by the camp using basic equipment.

Within minutes of beginning the search, a signal from Chris’ Garrett AT Pro metal detector indicated a promising target. On the very first pass through the sand and after digging a single hole, the missing diamond wedding ring was recovered.

“When an item holds as much meaning as a wedding ring, every effort matters,” said the recovery specialist. “While luck played a role in the quick find, the successful recovery ultimately came down to experience, proper technique, and professional-grade equipment.”

This incident highlights the importance of using skilled professionals for valuable item recovery. Attempting to locate lost items with basic or rental equipment can often lead to missed opportunities.

For those facing similar situations, contacting an experienced metal detecting professional with TheRingFinders.com can make all the difference in recovering treasured possessions.
