Miriam’s white gold, 1.15 carat solitaire diamond engagement ring with additional round diamonds on each side. White gold, half-infinity diamond wedding band and a white gold, diamond channeled half-infinity anniversary ring

I received a call from Miriam who lost three rings: her diamond engagement ring, diamond wedding band, and a similar style diamond anniversary ring with channeled diamonds halfway around the band.

For an entire week Miriam looked everywhere in the house and outside where she was doing yard work. No matter how many hours she and her husband Curtis searched for the three rings, they were nowhere to be found.

At some point, Miriam went online and found METAL DETECTING ADVENTURES INC, a local metal detecting business in the Maryland area. The website directed the woman to THE RING FINDERS, an elite international directory of metal detectorists who specialize in recovering lost rings and other items. That’s when she contacted me, THE RING HERO, Brian Rudolph.

I spoke with the distraught woman for some time on the phone, asking every question imaginable. Unfortunately, the garbage was already thrown out, but I gave her some other suggestions as to where to look for Miriam’s irreplaceable keepsakes. She said that she would call me back to schedule a visit if she still couldn’t find the rings.

Two weeks later (3 weeks since the initial disappearance of the jewelry), the sad and frustrated woman from Silver Spring, Maryland, called me back once again and requested my assistance in trying to recover her very special « symbols of love ». I was excited to help!

A couple of days later I arrived at the house. Between the two of us, we concluded that the only place left to search for the missing rings would be in and around the flower beds in front of the house.

I got out all of my metal detecting equipment and explained to Miriam how the search would take place. She showed me approximately 6 or 7 different locations around the front yard where she was weeding and trimming several weeks back.

Section by section, I metal detected each suspected area including scanning in and around a large hydrangea plant. I eventually moved over to the flower beds located adjacent to the foundation of the brick house. There were all kinds of miscellaneous pieces of metal discovered throughout the process of searching for the precious jewels. But eventually a very promising signal popped up on my detector screen! I got down on my knees and pinpointed the target with a handheld device. There buried in the leaves was the most beautiful sight! I found the white gold, 1.15 carat engagement ring with an additional round diamond on each side! I was beyond excited! My client began to cry!

I returned under the bushes to search for the other two rings! Within minutes, I found Miriam’s white gold, half-infinity diamond wedding band and her white gold, diamond channeled half-infinity anniversary ring, as well!

I could not have been happier for my Australian born client who had been painfully tormented for weeks not knowing if she was ever going to see her rings ever again! Miriam thanked me profusely for all of my help, starting with the endless questions that I asked her (to help get a better understanding as to where the rings could have ended up) to the professional metal detecting sleuth work I did to successfully recover my client’s sentimental keepsakes!

Before I left Miriam’s property, we called her husband Curtis and gave him the good news. We then bowed our heads and gave thanks to the Lord for answering our prayers which we offered up to God prior to the beginning of the search! Indeed there was much to be thankful for!

Signet Ring lost in Ames, Iowa… Found with a metal detector

Contact:

Carly contacted me about finding her grandmother’s signet ring. She lost it in a vacant lot while tossing an ice bag to a friend. This was one of the fastest ring finds I’ve ever had. She put me right on top of it and was very grateful to have her special ring back.

Long Distance Recovery, by Dave Milsted

  • from South Jersey (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Allisa called me last week with a unique request. She had lost two rings on her four-acre property and wondered if I could help find them with my metal detector. She had already recovered her engagement ring but was desperate to locate her missing wedding band. Another detectorist had quoted her $250 per hour, but I don’t charge for these searches; I work on a reward basis. The catch? Her property was a three-hour drive away.

She explained that in a moment of frustration, she had thrown both her wedding band and engagement ring. The engagement ring was found, but the yellow gold wedding band, adorned with many diamonds, was still missing. She and her husband had searched extensively, even weed-whacking and raking the area, but to no avail.

I initially offered to drive up on Sunday, but Allisa hesitated, concerned about the distance. Instead, I suggested a simple trick she could try that very night. I told her to go out to the area after dark with a powerful flashlight and scan the area where she had found her engagement ring. I emphasized the importance of doing it before any rain or dew settled on the grass. She agreed to give it a try.

The next day, I received an ecstatic text message. Within ten minutes of following my instructions, Allisa had found her wedding band! She was overjoyed, and honestly, it made my day too.

A Lost Treasure Found: A Heartwarming Search for a Cherished Ring

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)

Sometimes, even the smallest objects can hold the deepest meaning. Recently, I was called upon to help locate a sentimental treasure—a wedding ring lost during a joyful moment in the yard.

It all started when I received a message from someone whose wife had accidentally lost her ring while playing with their dog. We coordinated a time for me to visit and assist in the search. Arriving a little earlier than planned, I noticed an area of the yard where the grass had been raked—a sure sign that others had already been combing through for clues.

With my equipment in hand, I began my search, methodically scanning the area. About twenty minutes in, something caught my eye before my detector even alerted me—it was the ring, glinting in the grass! Relief washed over me, knowing this cherished item was found.

As I worked, I couldn’t help but notice the watchful eyes of the neighbors. It became clear that this was no ordinary lost-and-found mission; it was a community effort. The neighbors shared in the anticipation, having spent the previous evening searching themselves.

After finding the ring, I walked back to my car and shared the good news with one of the neighbors, who was just as thrilled as I was. Moments later, my client arrived, greeted by smiles from all around. His joy was palpable as he approached me, asking, “You have something for me?” Handing him the ring, I could see the gratitude in his eyes. His heartfelt thankfulness was echoed by his daughter, who was overjoyed that her mother’s ring was back where it belonged.

This experience reminded me of the power of a community coming together and the significance of sentimental treasures. It wasn’t just about the ring; it was about the memories it represented and the love it symbolized. Helping to reunite this family with their precious memento was truly an honor.

 

   

Kind woman with dementia lost ring while gardening

  • from Pacifica (California, United States)

I received a call from the niece of a kind older woman who lives in a lovely mid-century modern home designed by Joseph Eichler. #housegoals
She told me that her aunt had lost a ring while gardening but that she didn’t believe she knew where she actually lost it, due to dementia. My instinct was to trust « Eva » over the niece who just seemed to be annoyed by her aunt’s diminished mental faculties. And I am glad that I did.
The dirt was hard-packed but there were a few trees with ivy around the bases and one tree with a bench built in a square around the base. This was the spot Eva thought she lost the ring. When she told me that I caught the niece’s eyes, she rolled them and walked away. I did a preliminary swing around the trees and benches with my small coil to get into the nooks and in to the ivy. Then I returned to the area where Anna said she lost the ring. Detecting along the fence line a glimmer of silver caught my eye and there it was! Her cherished Scandinavian silver ring lying just beneath the gap under the fence right next to where she knew it would be. She was right all along.

 

Found Ring McCalla, AL

  • from Montevallo (Alabama, United States)

This all started November 22nd. Jennifer contacted me about her lost engagement ring, it just so happened to be her Grandmothers ring. She had a rough idea of where she lost it but was unable to locate it. Her and her husband had borrowed an older detector but was unable to pinpoint anything because « all it did was beep on everything » I assured her if it was there I would find it. She was going out of town for Thanksgiving and wanted to set something up for the following week. She contacted me Saturday the 30th after Thanksgiving and asked if I was available for Sunday mid-day to early afternoon. Knowing how sentimental this ring was to her, I decided to load up the whole arsenal and my wife with her detector. We arrived and Jennifer showed me a few areas where she was doing some yard work. She was very confident it was in a small area where she was spreading straw. So we began. The spot was in an animal cage so I knew there would be some chatter from all the fencing, so I popped the small coil on and went to work. First signal hit strong and only gave me one arrow on the Equinox 700, a quick glance revealed a concrete slab right under the dirt with rebar in it. I knew then that was going to present a new obstacle. Second target sounded great and in the gold range, however it was a piece of foil. Then all the sudden a loud assertive double tone and a 22 popped up on the Equinox my wife and I looked at each other with silent joy as to not get anyone’s hopes up, but we knew that sound all to well. My wife reached down and brushed away the straw to reveal a beautiful vintage solitaire engagement ring. We silently walked the ring over to Jennifer, who was visually very upset, and placed it into her shaking hands. Immediately the emotions poured down her cheeks. Right then I knew this ring was truly something special for her. Listening to her tell us about the struggles she had faced this year, my wife and I both struggled to not cry both for her and with her. This was truly the most emotional and rewarding recovery I have done to date. This is why I do what I do.

Finding lost gold rings in Canmore

  • from Cochrane (Alberta, Canada)

I received a call from Dani. His wife lost two rings while hiking.  The fresh snow swallowed them up and he couldn’t find them before their flight left for Spain. After talking and texting I went out two days later. No luck with the detector but that didn’t stop me from finding them. Watch the video for the whole story.

Mom’s Ring Recovered!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I was contacted by a woman who had initially lost two rings, but had found one before calling me. While we were speaking about the when and where, she told me the backstory. Both her parents had passed and she had a ring from each. She decided to wear the two rings around her neck, but had the rings together on a hoop earring, which was in turn, looped onto a gold chain. She was spreading straw onto newly seeded grass in her back yard, and in rearranging the straw with a rake, she saw her father’s ring on the ground, which is when she realized that the hoop earring had opened and dropped the rings. As you might imagine, the hoop wasn’t strong enough to hold the rings securely and it had opened up. Finding the first ring was a good indicator about the location of the second, but she had searched extensively and hadn’t been able to locate it. After having her show me the areas where she’d been working, I started the search. After finding the usual yard trash (small pieces of aluminum, iron nails, screws, and a few pennies), I was able to locate her ring. In her own search, she had unknowingly stepped on it and pushed it down into the mud. Although it wasn’t visible, my detector wasn’t bothered by the mud and I was able to recover the ring. Given how important the rings were to her, it was great to see the joy in her eyes when the missing ring was recovered and returned!

Lost Gold Wedding Band in the Flower Bed-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by Addison and she said her Grandfather had lost his wedding band in the yard while pulling weeds. It was a two and a half hour trip to Nashville from here, but well worth the trip. Peter said he was pulling weeds in the front flower bed for most of the afternoon and it was after dark, around ten oclock before he noticed his white gold band was gone. He went back out and looked for it but didn’t see it.  After pulling the weeds and putting them in a wheelbarrow he rolled it to the back end of the lot to dump it out, so I had several places to search. I started in the lawn area bordering the bed and frankly, that is where I expected to find it. Not finding it there I went into the bed and did find numerous peices of scrap aluminum and metal that was close to the surface.  About 3/4 of the way through the bed my Manticore locked onto a solid 15 in all directions and it was also close to the surface. The soil was soft so I just rubbed the surface area of the ground from over the signal and I saw the glint of white gold shining at me. That’s what I saw in the attached photo with my finger pointing at it. It was totally buried so he would not have seen it. The search time was around 30-40 minutes.

Yes a metal detector can find your lost gold ring in your yard, beach, park…That being said if you’ve never used one before you most likely won’t find your ring. Save you time and money and hire a metal detecting specialist with years of experience.

I have found over 500 lost items and I can’t count how many times someone had rented or bought a metal detector in hopes of finding their lost item. Experience pays off and that’s what we have on this directory, members like myself with many years of Metal Detecting experience.

I got a phone call from a young lady who said her husband had lost his ring somewhere in a garden area on the side of the road close to their house. After discussing the search, she mentioned his ring fit very well and they were confused on how it could’ve come off when they were looking for their Lost Keys. They went out and bought a metal detector and searched for hours, but could not find the ring. I showed up,  listen to the story and started my search. Within a couple minutes I found his lost gold wedding band. I love my job!  I might make it look easy but remember I have 53 years of metal detecting experience…It helps!
