Metal Detector Rental, Recover Lost Cross, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Jersey shore ring finder ring finder south jersey On a nice hot day Anton and his family were enjoying the day on at beach. This can be some of the most sought after relaxation one could ask for after a long day at work. And while people are on the beach there are many things they will do like , swimming, running, relaxing, picnicking, throwing footballs, volley ball, wrestling, etc. OH NO did I say wrestling ? That’s when things went wrong for Anton. In one of the 3 areas he was wrestling around that day his cherished cross was pulled from his necklace and lost in the sand.  They searched for a few hours, even with their metal detector, without any luck. That’s when Nicole decided to give me a call to see if I was available to locate the cross. I met them on the beach a little while later and they showed me everything that transpired up to realizing the cross was missing. I started in the most likely spot and within a few moments I had his cross in my scoop. Another fantastic ending to a great day on the Jersey Shore.

Lost ring or jewelry in the Montevallo, Pelham, or surrounding Alabama area??

  • from Montevallo (Alabama, United States)

Hey there my name is Jon. I have been detecting on and off for about 15 years (the last 6 years continuously). I recently came across The Ring Finders while searching for the owner of a ring I had found in a park near me. In that moment it only seemed fitting that I join and offer my assistance to others who have lost their rings, jewelry, or other items. I have always found joy in helping others and hope to continue that through The Ring Finders.

Yarmouth, MA Wedding Band Lost and Found. 2 Years Later It Is Returned by Richard Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

July 21, 2024

Well this return is my first of its kind a One in a Million chance, DONE!

Some two years ago Andrew was vacationing at one of my home town’s resorts. He was having a wonderful time playing ball, swimming, sunning and enjoying Vacation Land. All was a perfect vacation until his wedding band slipped from his finger. And as I told hundreds of vacationers that have asked for my detecting expertise help, what ever is lost is almost always still there. But you may not know just where that spot is. You will know where the spot is that you realize that you have lost the object. And the sooner I can start searching the better my chances are of finding it.

Fortunately my may success stories are gaining popularity and word is spreading along the shores of Cape Cod as is TheRindFinders.com web site. At one point this summer Andrew and his wife read some the postings and contacted me with a far out question about Andrew’s lost wedding band. It was lost at a South Yarmouth resort on June 21st/22nd 2021, any possibility you could look for it?

Knowing the area is well detected over by both vacationers and locals including myself, I knew it would be a fruitless endeavor to search for it. Also I could look at my records and ask other detectorists if they might have Andrew’s ring. My records showed that I had found such a ring after the time that Andrew had lost his ring. Now, how to verify that it was his ring. Pictures were sent back and forth and one with no inscription inside “Looked like that is the ONE! OK, I’ll send it to you, if it is yours it will be amazing. If not you can send it back.

On June 28th the ring was in the mail. One problem on my side is that the credit card machines at the post office were down, Cash Only. My luck I did not have cash enough to pay for the tracking option. I have send many rings through the mail with no problem…so away it went. Several texts back and forth about it not being received, we had almost given up hope – it must be lost in the mail. Then on July 20 a text I received read: “Envelope just showed up! It’s his ring!!! I can’t believe it!” Neither could I. All I can say is “It was meant to be”

How to find a lost cross with Metal Detector, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

What would 4 young men do after their Stockton State College track meet, that’s right, go to the beach to have some fun and cool down in the pristine Jersey Shore Ocean waters. Just prior to going into the water, Brendan removed his cherished cross and chain, and clasped it around the loop on his hat for safe keeping. After they got out of the water, it was placed back around his neck, and just a few moments later, his friend noticed the cross was missing. Luckily his friend Jackson had told his mom Brenda, who was very familiar with NJ Ring Finder stories, from some of the local pages. Brendan, Jackson, and Luke had searched for quite a while without any luck, and that’s when the call came in to me for HELP. I arrived on the Lavallette beach just a short while later, got all the details and searched the entire spot without any luck. After they assured me it must be right there, I turned my metal detectors sensitivity almost as high as it would go, and on the first pass I received a very faint but steady signal, which was in fact, Brendan’s beautiful cross. Another happy ending to a fantastic beach day.

Wedding Ring Set And Gold Necklace Lost During Beach Gathering Found!!!

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

EMERALD ISLE, NORTH CAROLINA,

Amanda was attending a get together of about 30 friends and family one evening at a Emerald Isle beach access.  Her initial message stated she placed her rings on her necklace to wash her hands off in the surf.  She also went the the bath house and wasn’t sure where it actually was lost.  I woke up early the next morning to her text message and knew I needed to get out there quickly.  I sent her a message that I was going to search as soon as possible.  She told me later, she didn’t sleep all night.  I started a grid search of the area her and her friends were the night before with no luck.  After her arrival, I expanded the area still not finding anything of value.  Amanda went back to the steps to sit with her mother-in-law (out of sight of me).  I began another grid to the water and back up the sloped soft sand and received a very loud target hit signal.  One scoop had her ring above the surface.  I sent her a picture of it and she replied « COMING!!! ».  After a brief discussion, I told her I would now try to find her necklace.  She was walking away from me when I had another target about five feet lower.  I called her back and one more scoop showed her necklace in the mound of wet sand.

Cape Cod’s Power Landing Beach: Wedding Band Lost, Found and Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

July 26, 2024

Keeping it simple, William was rinsing his hands off in knee deep water when his wedding band slipped from his finger. His family could not believe that this was his second ring lost at this one beach. The first ring had been lost some 5 years previously. As stories of a lost ring usually goes all the help in searching for the rings were to no avail. This time William’s uncle Jim took charge and called a Ring Finder.

That is where I got involved first with a phone call, then a trip to a beach I had never been too. When I arrived (the next day) I had William show me where he thought he lost the ring. He put an “X” in the sand. The “X” was about 150 feet from where Uncle Jim thought the ring was lost. Well I started by lining out a box around Williams “X”, searched the area and did not find the ring. Next I increased the area a bit along the breath of the beach. On my second pass I noticed a black rock that looked out of place and swung my detector’s coil over the area and…bingo about a foot away from the rock, there was the wedding band. William than said he remembered putting the rock that while searching under water. Two good efforts put forth, one for contacting a RingFinder and one for marking the area where the ring was lost lead to the swift recovery of the wedding band.

Now for the first ring lost 5 years ago, it will be kept on my “Did not find list” as my searching effort recovered only a few lost coins. Either the ring is too deep in the sand for my detector to “see”, someone has already found it, or it was just not in the area I searched. When all the detecting was done, it was time for pictures and smiles. There was no lack of either both from William’s group or other near-by beach goers.

On my way off the beach I was stopped and asked a few questions as to what I was looking for. During the conversation I notices one woman’s necklace was unhooked and hanging loose. When I brought it to her attention, deep concern as to the where-a-bouts overcame her cheerful smile. Discreetly she searched for the “missing” chard and found it. My detecting expertise was not required. However a jeweler’s skill will be required to fix the broken necklace. All in all it was another sunny, wonderful day on a Cape Cod beach.

Ring lost at La Jolla Shores found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Ryan was out in the surf with his children when his wedding ring came up missing. He had tied it to some strings on his suit, but, they came undone and the ring was lost. No amount of looking would find a heavy ring once it hits the sand. A suggestion from a friend prompted Ryan to do an online search which brought him to TheRingFinders and my info. Since it was lost in the surf, I planned on searching during the lowest tide possible to increase the odds of a successful recovery. That meant a search starting at 3am. Ryan wasn’t able to meet at that time, but, sent me a map and some details regarding where he thought the ring came off. After gridding an area bigger than a football field for about a couple of hours and only just one penny to show for it, I was begging to wonder whether someone had already scoured the area and found the ring. Nope, right at one of my turn around spots on my grid, I got a nice solid 21 on my Equinox 900 and after one scoop, had his ring in my scoop. The next day, my wife and I were going to be in the general area of where Ryan worked at a local fire department, so, we dropped it off to him. A pleasure to meet you Ryan, and thank you for the reward.

Emerald Isle, NC, Lost Wedding Band Found by Crystal Coast Ring Finders

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Bady had placed his wedding band in the beach chair before heading into the water.  I didn’t want to start an argument but, it seems either he or his wife folded up the chair and headed back the the beach house before realizing the ring was lost.  Bady’s father-in-law called me to request my service after getting a referral from a town official.  As I was on the phone gathering details, Bady’s wife was out searching for the ring and also was given my contact information from a person on the beach and she called too.  After I realized both numbers were from the same state outside of NC, I realized it may be about the same lost ring.  We had a laugh as I headed to their location and told them to rest assured I would indeed find the lost ring.  It wasn’t near any public parking area and not in an area other detectorist would visit on a regular basis.  After being fooled by a bottlecap, my 2nd loud signal was Bady’s lost ring.  It was very helpful they marked the area in the sand with a shovel and outlined the area they were sure it must be inside for me to find.  It was a good feeling and I enjoyed talking to Bady’s father-in-law upon our return.

Lost Ring in the Gulf – Pensacola Beach – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Late yesterday afternoon I got a call from Amanda. She was visiting from Wisconsin and had lost her platinum engagement ring out in the Gulf. They had looked for hours but weren’t able to find it and really wanted me to come before dark so they didn’t lose their spot on the beach.

My wife who is my good luck charm decided to come with me and we headed towards the beach.

When I got there, Amanda was with a big group of family. Some of them thought it was to the east and some to the west, some thought it was deeper and some shallower. Some had faith and some thought there was no way on earth I could find it. 😃 I love a challenge!

Amanda and a couple of family members came out with me and I got more information as I tried a few passes with no luck. I finally used a few of my tricks and changed areas based on what I heard from Amanda. Sure enough, I went just a little ways and to the astonishment of the family, I gently scooped up Amanda’s ring. 😃💍

Vacation saved!!!
