Wedding Ring Lost In the Snow, Monroe NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Jersey Shore Ring Finder

Kinjal reached out to see if I could help locate her husband’s lost ring. We had just experienced an early season snowstorm that ended around 11 AM and her husband decided to shovel the driveway and clear off their cars before the temperatures dropped into the single digits, which would freeze everything solid. Unfortunately, he wasn’t wearing gloves, and with the ice-cold snow on his hands, the ring easily slipped off.

She explained that a neighbor had loaned them a pinpointer, but despite hours of searching, they had no luck. They had even ordered a metal detector, but it wasn’t going to arrive until the next day. After hearing the situation, I told her I could come right away and asked her to send over the address. I gave her my ETA after I loaded up my gear and was on the road.

I started searching along one side of the driveway, picking up several signals, but none turned out to be the ring. I then moved to the area by the mailbox but still had no luck. Finally, I focused on the other side of the driveway. Just a few feet in, I got a strong signal that seemed promising. Using my pinpointer, I cleared a bit of snow, and the device started beeping like crazy. I reached down, scooped up a handful of snow, and there it was—the ring right in the middle!

Kinjal and her husband were incredibly grateful. As always, it felt great to help them recover something with great sentimental meaning.

Lost Wedding Ring on the Beach, Beach Haven NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Maureen called to see if I could help find her husband’s wedding ring, which she had accidentally dropped in the sand earlier that day. They were visiting her mother and had decided to enjoy a warm afternoon at the beach and do a little fishing. Her husband had given her the ring to hold for safekeeping while he fished, but somehow it slipped from her hand into the soft, powdery sand. They had tried using their children’s sand toys to sift through the area, but with no luck.

Realizing they needed some extra help, they did a quick Google search, found my page, and called right away. I packed up my gear and headed over. When I arrived, they showed me the area where the ring had likely fallen and shared the details. With just a few swings of my metal detector, I picked up a promising signal, and sure enough—there was the ring in my scoop. They couldn’t believe how quickly it was recovered after spending hours searching. Sometimes, calling a professional right away is the best way to save time and make the most of the day!

When Lauren reached out to me she was extremely worried because her platinum wedding band had vanished while raking leaves. The ring belonged to her grandmother and represented a treasured family heirloom that carried emotional meaning spanning an entire century. She removed her rings early in the morning because she did not want to damage them during yard work. She placed them carefully inside her pocket with her phone and zipped it securely before beginning the cleanup.
At some point during the work she decided to put her rings back on her hand for safety. When she reached into her pocket she discovered the wedding band missing despite the zipper being fully closed. She searched through leaves and checked her steps repeatedly but the ring remained hidden beneath the yard debris. After realizing the search required professional help she contacted Ring Finders South Jersey for assistance locating the cherished heirloom.
After arriving I spoke with her about the exact areas she worked earlier in the day. Gathering those details helped me create a clear plan for searching the yard thoroughly with my metal detector. I began scanning near the leaf piles first because those areas often hide important items without showing any visible signs. The first section produced no tones matching the metal profile of platinum.
I moved to the next location just several feet away and swept slowly back and forth across the ground. Shortly after that I picked up a clean signal coming from beneath a thin layer of leaves near the side of her yard. I pushed the leaves aside carefully and immediately saw the platinum ring resting quietly underneath them. The moment felt incredible because I knew how much the heirloom meant to her entire family.
Lauren was overjoyed when she saw the ring back safely in her hands again. She could not believe how quickly everything changed from anxiety to complete relief and gratitude. Watching her smile while placing the hundred year old ring back on her finger was incredibly rewarding. Recoveries like this remind me why I love helping people find their lost valuables throughout South Jersey.
Every sentimental item carries a story that deserves to continue, and I am grateful to help make that possible.

Lost ring in Provo: found and returned

Jane and her college roommates were enjoying the first snowfall of the year in front of the historic Utah County Courthouse. After a snowball fight, they made snow angels, and then discovered that one of the roommates had lost her favorite ring in the snow. After the snow melted, Jane returned and searched thoroughly for the ring in the grass but couldn’t find it. She hoped to find the ring, then give it as a surprise birthday present to her roommate in a few weeks. She found my name in TheRingFinders.com and gave me a call. We met the next morning, and after maybe 45 minutes of searching in a light snowfall with my metal detectors, we found the ring hidden in the grass.

Ring found on Carmel By The Sea Beach

  • from Carmel-by-the-Sea (California, United States)

It was a very dark night on the windswept Carmel Main when I got the call, and although we had a bit of a language barrier, I was able to make out « Sunset, ring, lost, beach, Carmel, help, you have machine. » I grabbed my detector, scoop and all-important headlamp and headed out to the beach. The young couple from Italy had been enjoying an iconic California sunset, and as darkness fell, the young guy, wiping sand off his shorts, wiped his wedding band right off his hand, and right down a sandy slope. They wisely marked the spot they were at with a backpack, and so when I found them in my headlamps beam, I turned on my machine and I got to work. I swept in concentric circles from the backpack spot for about twenty minutes, chatting about how much I liked Italy when I visited as a teen. Unfortunately, we found nothing but aluminum pull tabs. Things looked grim. I figured maybe the ring flew farther than they surmised, and maybe some unlucky foot traffic also slid the ring down hill. I worked my way down slope and eventually, I did get a « faint 11 » on my Equinox. Sadly, after three or four attempts, the signal disappeared. I walked back up the slope, and asked the young lady if there happened to be anything shiny in my scoop, she reached in and pulled out their white gold wedding band held it up and cheered. Disaster averted, and I got a huge hug from her, than one from the guy too! He gave me some « American Dollars » as a reward, and I even got an invite to Italy!  I was happy to send the now much happier couple off to Morro Bay, to continue their vacation!

Find Engagement Ring with Metal Detector, Upper Freehold NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Early one morning, around 3 a.m., I noticed a text from Rachel. She was distraught, having lost her beautiful engagement ring during a visit to an orchard the day before. We agreed to meet early, before the orchard opened, to avoid the crowds.

I arrived at the orchard ahead of time and found the owner to request permission to search the areas where she’d been. He kindly gave the go-ahead, asking only that I drive carefully around the property. Rachel and I headed to the spot where she thought the ring might have fallen off, and I began the search.

After checking a few signals, none of which were her ring, I finally got a promising signal. Moving some corn out of the way, I uncovered her ring. Rachel was amazed that we’d found it and was so grateful she had reached out. Moments like this make the early starts and hard work worth it.

Family Heirloom Diamond Ring Lost During Football Fun…Recovered by Ring Hero in Brookville, Maryland

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)

Leila’s beautiful family heirloom yellow gold diamond infinity band gifted to her by her mother before she passed away.

Leila and family pose for a photo while celebrating the return of a very special diamond ring recovered by ring finder Brian Rudolph.

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (also known as THE RING HERO) searches  Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses and Vehicles. He Will Find Your Lost Item! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

Leila was playing football with her son outside in the grass on the side of their Brookville, Maryland home. Just at the moment when the fun and cool mother hiked the ball between her legs, she could feel her very special family heirloom ring go flying off her finger. Leila looked down and saw that the yellow gold infinity style diamond ring that was given to her before her mother passed away a few years ago was clearly gone and hiding somewhere in the grass.

The distraught woman immediately stopped the football fun and began searching for her lost ring. Eventually the rest of the family joined in as well but unfortunately all of their efforts led to no avail.

After a couple of hours of unproductive metal detecting with a neighbor’s low budget machine, Leila switched gears and started to search the internet for a better solution. Happily, the young woman found a metal detectorist directory called THE RING FINDERS, an international directory of experienced ring finders! That’s where Leila had found me.

Within a short period of time, my client and I began talking on the phone and I asked her all of the details about the disappearance of the special ring. We set up a time for me to come out and I told her I would do everything I possibly could to reunite Leila with her precious mother’s diamond ring.

The next day, I drove out to my client’s Brookville, Maryland property to conduct the ring search. It was rainy and miserable outside but that did not deter me from focusing on my mission to find the lost jewelry. Once I got all of the details regarding how the ring went missing, I gathered up my professional metal detecting gear and began the search.

During the « ring investigation », I had two young assistants (Leila’s kids) who helped to lay down grid lines and re-wind the tapes up so I could put them back down in new places on the lawn. Within 90 minutes, after being completely soaked by the unforgiving downpours, I found Leila’s ring! It was metal detected approximately 30 feet to the right of where my client had originally been playing the day that the family heirloom jewel went flying off of her finger!

I could not have been more happy for Leila and her husband Shane! This yellow gold infinity style diamond ring meant the world to my client. Every time she looked at it, it drew her closer to the memory of her late mother. Now that it was back on her finger, she could sleep better and move passed those nightmarish thoughts that kept causing her to think that she would never see her ring ever again. I’m thrilled that I was able to help wipe away those temporal worries from Leila and once again reunite my client with her irreplaceable keepsake.

Cell Phone Recovered In Park , Forked River NJ, Recovered By Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

NJ ring Finder

I received a call from Bill regarding a lost cell phone at one of the local parks. He had spent the day enjoying the outdoors, but when he returned home, he realized his phone was missing. As most people know, losing a cell phone can be a nightmare — not just because of the cost, but because of all the important information, photos, and contacts stored inside.

Bill reached out to me, hoping I could help since he wasn’t in the area and had important business to take care of. I told him I’d be happy to head over and take a look. When I arrived, I started my search in the general area where he had been sitting earlier in the day.

The grass was extremely tall due to the recent stretch of rainy weather, which had delayed mowing in the park. I began my search, knowing that a phone usually sits on top of the grass but can easily disappear in tall overgrowth. After about 25 minutes of careful searching, I received a strong signal — and there it was! The phone was completely hidden in the long grass.

Luckily, I recovered it before the park staff came through with the mowers. If they had cut the grass first, the phone would have been destroyed and all his data lost — much of which wasn’t backed up to the cloud.

Another great recovery and a perfect example of why it pays to make a quick call to Edward Trapper, the NJ Ring Finder.
