Lost Wedding Set Found and Returned with Help

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Havelock, NC
Jason Burleson, a member of The Ring Finders group, contacted me regarding a lost wedding set near Havelock, NC. Later, he informed me that he wasn’t feeling well and decided to refer the customers to Crystal Coast Ring Finders. After receiving the call from Josh and Patience, I headed out. Upon arrival, Josh marked the approximate location with a stick where they had set up earlier. After a few trash signals, my detector picked up a midrange target. Using only my pinpointer, I retrieved one ring from the sand and quickly located the second one about seven inches away. Josh and Patience rushed over when I showed them their recovered rings.

Lost Blue Stone Pendant in Newark, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

Received a call regarding a lost blue stone pendant. The caller explained that the pendant was lost while retrieving mail from her mailbox; the necklace had gotten caught in the mailbox door, causing the chain to break. She searched extensively but was unable to find it.

I met her the following day to assist in the search. Being in a rural area, there was quite a bit of debris and trash around the mailbox, which made the search more challenging. However, after a short while, I was able to locate the blue stone pendant. She was incredibly happy and relieved to have it returned.

Men’s Wedding Band Lost Wringing a Rag in Crane Hill, Alabama… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I received a text message on Sunday afternoon (August 31st, 2025) from Roger stating he had lost his gold and titanium wedding band a few weeks ago while wringing out a rag at his vacation home in Crane Hill, Alabama.  Both Roger and his wife, Dawn had their wedding bands custom made about 6-7 years ago while on a trip to Switzerland.  I told Roger that I’d be more than happy to help.  I was having family over for dinner, but told him I could come out the next morning on Labor Day.  Finding lost items is definitely not work to me (lol) and was the perfect way to celebrate the holiday!

I met Roger and his family around 9 am the next morning.  He showed me where he was standing and where he saw his ring drop.  He said it looked like it landed in the small patch of grass on top of the large rocks.  Roger was standing on the second story balcony and it was a long drop to the bottom.  The house was on a decent incline (picture below), so the ring could have easily rolled down the hill, which lead to their boat dock at Smith Lake.  I grabbed my Minelab Equinox 900 with the 15-inch coil and started my search.

I searched for over an hour, covering every spot by the drop zone and down the hill.  Roger’s daughter suggested that I expand my search further to the left side, because it had rained a lot over the last few weeks and she thought it may have washed down between two trees.  I covered that area all the way to the steps leading to the dock, but still no ring.  I went to the bottom of the hill by the woods and dock to make a final pass since I had searched just about everywhere possible.  As I was walking through, I suddenly eyeballed Roger’s ring sitting against the small wooden rail right before the drop off to the dock and lake!  Wow, what a miracle!!  It had rolled all the way down the hill and stopped just before the dock (picture below).  If the ring continued to roll, it may have went over the dock and into the lake!  You just never know how far rings will travel.  It was also one of the heaviest rings I have found, which could’ve caused the long roll plus the long drop from the second story balcony.  I immediately thanked God for the last-minute save!

I took some pictures and headed up the stairs to knock on the door.  Dawn and her daughter greeted me.  Dawn asked if I was going to call it.  With a disappointed face I said, “yes, going to call it and head home.”  Then I gave a big smile and said, “because Roger’s ring has been found!!”  They both said, “are you kidding!?”  I said, “not kidding, we got it!”  Then I showed them a picture.  They were so happy and said I had to say the same thing to Roger, lol, who was outside in the front.  I could tell that Roger was slightly disappointed when I said I was going to head home.  But then I smiled and told him the good news!  Smiles all around 😊 Roger gave me a couple of big hugs and thanked me profusely.

I had left Roger’s ring right where I had found it to show them where it ended up.  Roger, Dawn, and I went down to retrieve it.  Everyone was so happy and couldn’t believe it had rolled that far.  This was definitely the perfect way to spend Labor Day!

Despite the beach and weather conditions from offshore hurricane Erin, Morganna and her husband managed to sneak in some beach time enjoying the sand with their children on the beach here in Cape May. Her husband had removed his ring and placed it in the pouch of their beach chair for safe keeping while they played in the sand with their children. After a few hours, and deteriorating weather conditions, the family packed up the crew and headed off the beach forgetting that the ring had been placed in the chair pocket. Shortly after returning to their hotel room the couple realized what had transpired and began checking the chair only to find the ring was gone. They returned to the beach to search with no success. During this time Cape May had experienced extremely rough surf and very high tides due to hurricane Erin. The next morning Morganna reached out and we made arrangements to meet on the beach. Once she led me to the general area where they were set up on the beach I began searching. After about 30 minutes of searching I had her husbands ring in the scoop. Clearly the high tide had washed over it, and given where it was found, had also moved the ring about 25 yards from where the family had been sitting. Another happy couple!
Morgannas review:
“Jeff was amazing! Such a nice guy who is willing to help anyone! Messaged him in the morning, met up with him around 9 and he found my husband’s wedding band within the hour! Despite all the rip tides and tropical storm weather he still found it!!”

I received a late night text from Lily explaining that she and her girlfriends had spent an afternoon on Sunset Beach off Alexander Ave in Cape May Point. At some point she believed that her mothers class ring, which Lily wore, had slipped out of her shorts pocket while they were on the beach. This occurred about TWO WEEKS prior to her reaching out! We chatted back and forth while I gathered some specifics about their location. Lily wasn’t sure if the ring was even there but I assured her that I would attempt to check the area regardless. The next morning I rode over to Alexander Ave and began checking the area before beach patrons arrived. With only one photograph and a text description of the area I began checking the beach. After about 25 minutes of searching I had her mothers ring in the scoop. Lily had already returned home several weeks prior so he ring was shipped back to her. Another happy client, another successful hunt!
Lily’s review of service:
“Very quick and responsive! Found my mother’s class ring that I had lost two weeks prior. He found it in the sand and sent it to me through the mail since I don’t live locally. Highly recommend!”

Received a call from Collier, Collier explained that his ring had slipped off while he was standing in knee deep surf and disappeared beneath the water. While on the phone with Collier I checked the tide chart and we planned on meeting up once the tide receded. Once the tide was down to almost low, I met Collier on the beach. Once he directed me to the general area I began checking and located his ring in about 5 minutes, much to Collier’s surprise! Another vacation saved!
Colliers review: “I lost my ring in the ocean today, and 6 hours after I lost the ring, he came and found it in 5 minutes! Incredible. Came right when he said he would, and is a very friendly guy. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Family Heirloom Engagement Ring…. lost, but now… FOUND in Huntsville, Alabama!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Christina McCree – Ring Finder/Metal Detectorist for northern Alabama and southern/middle Tennessee.  Call or text ASAP, anytime 24/7 at 610-504-6135.

I received a call on Friday (August 29th, 2025) in the late afternoon from Gabby.  Gabby’s engagement ring was lost the night before in the front yard at her home in Huntsville, Alabama and she was hoping I could help her find it.  Gabby and her fiancé, Matthew had bought a metal detector, but were unable to find Gabby’s engagement ring, which was a family heirloom – it was Matthew’s grandmother’s ring.  I initially suggested the next morning for a search, but both Gabby and Matthew had to work, so I said I would head out after dinner.

About an hour and a half after Gabby’s call, I headed out for the search.  I met Gabby at her home and I had her show me the area she thought her ring was lost at.  Gabby also showed me a picture of what the gold engagement ring looked like.  I told her she was welcome to go back in the house to relax and I would get to work, letting her know how the search went.  I was using my Minelab Equinox 900 with the 15-inch coil.  I cleared the main area in the front yard and expanded further to the right side, but didn’t find the ring.  I double checked the main area and expanded my grid to the left side.  I was a few feet from the street, when I hit a good tone and saw the outline of a gold ring emerge from the green grass.  It was Gabby’s engagement ring!  Praise the Lord!!

I snapped a few photos of the ring and went to knock on the door to tell Gabby the great news.  Both Gabby and Matthew were so happy and relieved to hear that the ring was found!  Smiles all around 😊 and the reason I do what I do!

Grandmother’s lost ring in Ofallon, Illinois

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

I was hanging out by my fire pit when I saw the huge shadow of a cicada trying to land on my shoulder.

 

I got up and started walking towards the house and realized the cicada landed on me. I swiped at it a few times and felt my grandmother’s ring slip from my hand.

 

My children and I searched for days and nights. I even purchased a metal detector and search on my own but nothing showed up.

 

A few days later I came across Ring Finder. Jeremy answered on the first ring, arrived the next day and found my ring within minutes.

 

He was confident, professional and so kind! He turned a really fragile moment around for me in minutes! Thank you Jeremy for finding my grandmothers ring that has been in my family for more than 50 years!

Contact:

I got a call to see if I could help find a gold pendant in Belmont Shore Monday evening. I showed up and was greeted by a couple guys, one being Jeremy whose pendant it was. Apparently they were wrestling on the sand which caused the chain to break.
I started gridding the area and after about 10 minutes I found his pendant.

Soldered Engagement & Wedding Rings Lost While Pulling Weeds in Huntsville, AL… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

This past week I had a total of 6 calls for lost items, which is a higher-than-normal call volume for my area.  I conducted a search for 4 of the items (the other 2 were too far or needed a diver).  I’m happy to report that all 4 items were found!  All praise and glory to God!  He is so good!!!  Here’s the write-up of the first recovery.  Please be on the lookout for the others.

I received a text message on Monday morning (August 25th, 2025) from Ellen stating she had lost her soldered engagement & wedding rings over the weekend while pulling weeds at her mother-in-law’s (Judy) house in Huntsville, Alabama.  Ellen had taken off her rings (including a ring she wears on a finger on her right hand) and put them in her pocket.  She put her phone in the same pocket and pulled it out periodically to change songs.  When Ellen was done with the yard work, there was only 1 ring left in her pocket — the soldered engagement & wedding rings were gone.  I told Ellen I would be more than happy to help search.  We scheduled a hunt for Tuesday after I got off from work.

Ellen and her husband, Brad live in Birmingham, AL.  Ellen had to be in Birmingham on Tuesday, but Brad was back in Huntsville for the day, so I met Brad at his mother’s (Judy) house around 4:30 pm on Tuesday.  Brad and Judy showed me where Ellen had been working in the flowerbeds and another area around a tree.  They were very kind providing some bug spray and a cold glass of ice water when I asked.  Once I had my search area, I got to work with my Minelab Equinox 900.

I searched two piles of weeds, but didn’t get any signals.  I moved to the grass area in front of the flower beds and had a good hit within a few minutes of searching.  I looked down and saw that unmistakable glimmer of gold!  It was Ellen’s rings!!  I took a few pictures of what the rings looked like as is (pictures at the end).  Prior to calling me for help, Ellen and Brad had bought a metal detector and tried searching.  They had a few hits, but everything was below the surface.  They were surprised that they missed the rings, but they were fixated on another target nearby, and the detector they bought was not the best for finding rings.  Once you know the ring is there, then you think how could I miss it, but grass will easily swallow up a ring and it’s really hard or near impossible to spot with eyesight alone.

I went and got Brad and Judy and gave them the good news!  They were both so happy and gave me a big hug. Brad Facetimed Ellen and I got to surprise her with the rings and show her in real time.  Ellen was so happy, relieved, and thankful!  She told me this was a huge answered prayer.  I told her that I had been praying as well.  What an awesome feeling!  Brad and Ellen have been married for 26 years!  Thank God for another successful recovery!

As I was getting ready to leave, my truck wouldn’t start – my battery was dead!  Brad thankfully had some jumper cables and helped me get my truck started (I now have a pair of jumper cables in my truck, lol).  Huge thank you to Brad for saving me there!  I was able to get a new battery on Friday morning – just in time for a few more searches, lol…
