LOST GOLD WEDDING BAND in CHARLOTTE, NC….. FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

I finished the day 2-3 on recoveries, lack of sleep, many hours and miles driven to put smiles back on 2 of the 3 and hopes for the 3rd one it is somewhere in her bags waiting to be found!

While on the ferry ride to Southport coming back from Bald Head Island and after successfully completing my early morning ring recovery. I get a call from a gentleman telling me his wife lost her wedding set in some grass at the PNC Music Pavilion in Charlotte, NC last night. They were able to find the engagement ring, but the wedding band wasn’t able to be found.

They had lots of help from police and pedestrians all trying to locate this ring in the dark!

He found me online and gave me a call. I advised him of my current location/situation and assured him that I could head straight to him once I get back to my truck and change into some dry clothes. Four hours later I arrived and met the both of them. I get my gear ready, get the story, area to search and start the recovery!

About 15-20 mins I get a ring hit, look down to scan with my pin-pointer and I see a ring shaped object! I could just barely see it with the grass already covering it. It would’ve been impossible to see this one with just the naked eye!

After a few photos and “couple embraces” it’s back on her finger where it belongs to stay forever!

LOST 14k GOLD WEDDING RING IN A TIDE POOL on BALD HEAD ISLAND, NC…… FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Received a late night text from a gentleman that lost his 14k gold wedding ring on “BALD HEAD ISLAND” on the east beach side where it meets south beach in the “tide pool” while playing with his family.

They were leaving at noon today to head back to Raleigh, so time was of the essence!

I drive down at midnight last night and hit Oak Island for about an hour and a half where a young lady had lost her wedding ring. I didn’t find her’s so I loaded up and made it to Southport ferry for the 6:00 ride over to Bald Head Island. I arrive at 6:30, was picked up by 6:45.

We headed to the opposite side of the island and walked out to the spot. The tide pool has a drop off that goes down to about 7-8 feet and if it was in there I would’ve had to come back to find it with my NEMO/NOMAD MINI.

About an hour later and ONLY getting two signals, I come up with his 14k gold wedding ring!

Happy husband and I’m sure a happy wife too! Now they can go home from vacation with a story and a priceless treasure back where it belongs!

Lost ring on the beach, Seaside Heights NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:
  1. Erica was enjoying a beautiful summer day at the Jersey Shore when a nearly tragic moment occurred. She had taken off her rings to apply sunblock and placed them on her beach chair. Hours later, when she went to sit down again, she suddenly remembered—but the rings were gone.After a long search with no success, Erica and her fiancé packed up for the day and headed to the boardwalk for dinner. While there, she posted on a local Facebook community group, sharing the exact location of where they had been sitting on the beach. Fortunately, someone in the comments saw the post and suggested she call Edward Trapper – the NJ Ring Finder.Erica contacted me right away. I asked her to take the post down (it had only been up for about 20 minutes) to avoid attracting any opportunistic treasure hunters, and I agreed to meet her at the boardwalk within 30 minutes.

    By the time we reached the beach, it was dark and officially closed, but we carefully worked our way around the barriers. Erica guided me to the exact spot using earlier photos, and I could still see the dig marks from where they had searched earlier.

    Within 10 minutes, I had her ring safely recovered in my scoop. The relief and excitement on their faces said it all—they truly didn’t expect to see those rings again.

Wildwood Crest, NJ Lost Platinum & Diamond Ring FOUND! by Ring Finders Cape May Jeffrey Laag

Lost a ring? Dont wait, Call NOW!

Received a call from Laura. She explained that she had taken off her rings while on Diamond Beach in Wildwood Crest in front of The Grande and handed them to her husband while she applied sunscreen. Later he handed them back to her and she placed them on her lap, this all happened on Saturday. Several days later Laura was looking for her rings, which she assumed she had placed somewhere in her home. After checking the usual spots, panic began to set in after she realized that she never picked them back up after her husband handed them back to her while on the beach in Wildwood Crest. Laura contacted me the following Thursday evening. We spoke and she outlined a specific area on a map pic that I had sent to her. I went down that same Thursday evening only to be met with 30-40mph winds and an onshore blown in tide. The beach was a mess as a result of these weather conditions. I still managed to check a fairly large area but with no success. I advised Laura of the conditions and lack of results and told her that I would try another day once things calmed down however I was skeptical at best considering the location she directed me to. A few days later Laura contacted me again and said that a little girl and her grandmother were playing in the sand in front of The Icona Star Beach Bar and happened across one of Laura’s rings! They turned the ring into The Grand staff to be returned to Laura. Laura immediately advised me of what had transpired and the next morning at 5am I went down to check the area where the one ring was found. The area where the first ring was found was about 800yds from where Laura had originally identified to me. I thoroughly checked that area and found nothing but trash. Since I was already there I walked back down to the original area and was able to make a few passes closer to the normal high tide line and BAM got a signal worth checking. Out came the platinum diamond wedding band! Laura spoke with The Grande staff and I picked up the first ring and delivered both back to Laura the following week. She was absolutely elated! Another successful recovery! How the first ring ended up so far from the original spot may always be a mystery but at least they are both back where they belong!
See attached link from 6abc Action News who picked up this story and did an interview about the whole ordeal.

Laura’s testimonial:
« Jeff is so incredibly kind and selfless – and above all else, so committed to finding your priceless items. You can trust him to search and return your items. I lost my wedding band on Diamond Beach on a busy summer Saturday and had Jeff start his search 5 days after I lost it. Between lost time, big crowds, bad weather, and beach cleaning tractors…. Well, let’s just say not even Jeff had confidence in finding my wedding band. But that didn’t stop him from immediately responding to my text and going to the beach very late on a week night to start his search. He returned empty handed that night and went back again at dawn a few days later and found it! He spent so much time helping me and I am forever grateful. If you’ve lost a wedding ring or anything precious, you know it’s devastating and hard to know where to turn but I hope you turn to Jeff. He even went out of his way to hand deliver it to my front step and I live over an hour from him. He is a special soul! Jeff works for tips so please be sure to show your gratitude! »

Lost a ring in Sea Isle City? Don’t Wait to call! 215-850-0188

Nicole was enjoying a beautiful day at the beach in Sea Isle City, NJ with her daughter and family—sunshine, sand, and summer fun. But that perfect day quickly turned into panic when she got home and realized both her wedding band and engagement ring were gone. 💍

Her family searched high and low with no luck. That’s when Nicole contacted me—John Favano with Ring Finders South Jersey. We met back at the beach, and after getting a clear idea of where they’d been throughout the day, I started a detailed grid search.

✅ First, I checked the spot where they had been sitting—no luck.
✅ Then I moved closer to the shoreline—still nothing.
✅ Finally, after expanding the search, I got a signal. Out came the wedding band! Just a few sweeps later, the engagement ring appeared too!

Nicole was thrilled to be reunited with both rings. It was a successful recovery and another rewarding day helping return lost treasures on the beach in Sea Isle City!

North Topsail Beach, NC – Wedding Band Lost In Ocean, Found And Returned

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

North Topsail Beach, NC                                                                            By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

Steve was spending some time in the ocean during a typical hot Summer North Carolina day. He mentioned he was swimming in about chest deep waters, jumping in the waves.  A large wave hit him and he felt his ring was gone!

Steve called me just after low tide that same day and I arrived the following day to search.  I found another man’s white gold band, in the ocean, a few miles away about an hour before.  I started my search parallel with the shoreline working my way out into the deeper water.  After finding nothing but a couple of pieces of trash, I started a vertical search.  After just a couple of passes, I got a good signal.  I was disappointed when I dug up a pop can tab.  A few steps later in the water, my machine displayed the very same target identification.  This time it was Stephen’s white gold wedding band!  I walked to shore and took some pictures.  Steve was about to go out with family for pizza and I sent him the photo thinking they had already left.  A large number of family members and Steve and his wife poured out onto the beach with surprise and joy!

LOST PLATINUM WEDDING RING in MONROE, NC…. FOUND!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

I DIDN’T EVEN TURN ON MY MACHINE!!!

Received a text message that a gentleman had lost his platinum wedding ring in his yard.

I told him I could leave in a few mins and would be there in an hour and a half.

I arrive, get my gear, meet him, we make our way to the backyard where I get the scoop.

He was skimming his pool and he was shaking his hands dry next to a black/rod iron looking fence that had a row of elephant ears growing on the pool side of the fence.

As he was showing me the direction he thought the ring went, stating it’s probably on the other side of these elephant ears. He goes to move the plants back and we look down and we both see the ring! He was like, “ARE YOU KIDDING ME, MY WIFE AND LOOKED ALL OVER FOR THIS RING!”

I took a couple of photos and loaded up to head back home.

Love the easy ones!

Two Very Important Lost Rings Found After Kids Day At The Beach

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

NORTH TOPSAIL, NC                                                                                        By: Crystal Coast Ring Finders

I was taking advantage of the calm Atlantic Ocean waves by metal detecting the waist deep waters of Emerald Isle, NC.  My phone, in it’s waterproof case, rang and I came out of the water to return the call.  Jeff informed me his wife Kim had lost 2 of her rings on the beach about an hour away from my current location.  I told Jeff I would load up the truck and head that way as soon as possible.

Upon arrival, Kim & Jeff informed me she was spending the day at the beach and removed her rings to apply sunscreen to the kids.  She became distracted and wasn’t sure where she placed them but feels they were on the beach blanket.  It wasn’t until she returned home to shower that she noticed her rings were missing.  Kim went back to the location and tried to search and found the area (because of a dead crab nearby).   Kim was unable to dig out the rings from the sand.  Marking the location was very important as I started to grid search the area and after one pass, I turned to start a second search line, and my metal detector sounded off very loudly.  I looked up at Jeff & Kim and smiled.  I was almost certain I had found them under the sand.  My pinpointer confirmed the location and I used my hand to scoop the rings to the surface.   Kim came a running after spotting the large cigar style ring.

2 Lost Rings Found With Metal Detector, Lavallette, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

Ashley was enjoying a day at the Jersey Shore with her family when she took off her rings and placed them on a towel to apply sunblock. Like many others in similar situations, she got distracted and forgot about the rings. A while later, she shook off the towel and only then remembered where she had left them. Her family searched for a while but had no luck. Unfortunately, Ashley had to head home, but she asked her family to call me for help with the recovery.

After receiving the call, I went to the beach, where her family had secured the area. Just a few swings of the detector later, her rings were safely in my scoop. I sent Ashley pictures of her recovered rings, and she was amazed.

This was another reminder of how important it is to act quickly and keep the area secured when something is lost.

Lost Necklace And Custom Gold Wedding Band Returned With Help

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

Randy called me one evening to say he placed his ring & necklace in his beach chair before heading out for one last swim before going out to eat.  He folded up the chair and ran back to the beach house and then realized he didn’t have his jewelry.  Upon arrival, Randy gave me a quick description of where he walked back to the house (across a very wide area of the beach) and back to the area he felt he had the chair set up.  It was getting dark quickly and it was very hard to determine the exact location.  I performed a grid search that evening and made a few hikes to the house and back to the high tide line.  It was getting late and I was only finding trash so I called it for that evening.  Fortunately, I keep track of where I walked, with an online application,  and use this to return to search again if needed.

The next couple of days I wasn’t able to get back to try again.  Two days after Randy phoned me, a young honest lady (Amber) asked if I knew of anyone that lost a gold ring near The Point (Emerald Isle)?  I told her I was searching for a ring & necklace in that area.  She mentioned her little sister Alayna found the ring while searching for seashells.  She shared the picture of the custom ring with me. I asked Randy about his ring and he described it perfectly!  We had a match!  I knew the necklace must have been nearby.  I asked Amber where the ring came from and she mentioned just above the high tide line.  I headed back out at daybreak because the heat each day was too much for me to be walking in the hot sand with no shade.  I expanded my original search area and was within inches the 1st night of finding both.  I hit a very clean signal and one scoop into the sand I was able to pull Randy’s gold chain with a golden cross.  It was a fantastic feeling to know WE found both his wedding ring and his necklace!  I am so glad Amber and Alayna knew about Crystal Coast Ring Finders.
