Washed Away the Soap and the Sparkle

  • from Kilgore (Texas, United States)

On Saturday Tori decided her German Shepherd needed a bath. As she finished she noticed her wedding rings were gone. She immediately started backtracking. Did it come off while using the hose or the blower drying her dog? With no luck finding her rings her husband bought a metal detector on his way home from work. He read the instructions and watched a few YouTube videos. They both search until midnight with no luck. Tori decided to try a search online and came across The Ring Finders website and texted me. Just so happens I was off and with in one hour of receiving her text I was headed to try and find her rings. After arriving we spent a few minutes going over where the washing took place. To our surprise I found her rings in less then fifteen minutes. A day with so much anxiety ended on a high note.

Lost Ring in the Yard – Found in Under 10 Minutes!

The other evening, Serée was out in her yard playing with her energetic puppy when the unexpected happened—her cherished ring slipped off and disappeared into the grass. At first, she thought it would be easy to spot. She raked through the grass, walked slowly barefoot hoping to feel it, and searched every inch of the area. She was even able to narrow it down to about a 10 x 10 foot section of her yard, but the ring was still nowhere to be found.

Frustrated but determined, Serée turned to the internet for help. That’s when she discovered TheRingFinders.com and reached out for assistance.

When I arrived, I grabbed my detector and got to work. With her narrowed search area, it only took about 10 minutes before the signal came through loud and clear—and there it was, hiding just beneath the grass. The look of relief on Serée’s face when I placed the ring back in her hand was priceless.

Stories like this are why I love being part of The Ring Finders network. Sometimes a ring may seem lost forever, but with the right tools and a little experience, it can be back where it belongs in no time.

Bracelet Lost Through the Cracks and Found Beneath the Dock Port Dalhousie

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

It’s amazing how quickly a special moment can turn stressful — and how quickly a little determination can turn it back around.

A few days ago, I got called to help with a tricky recovery at the marina. A young woman had been walking along the dock when she tripped and fell. Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt — but in the process, her very special bracelet came off her wrist and fell straight through the cracks of the dock, disappearing into the water below.

The bracelet wasn’t just jewelry ,it had sentimental value and a recent gift that couldn’t be replaced .

The conditions weren’t exactly ideal. Poor visibility, tight spaces under the dock, and plenty of weeds made the search feel nearly impossible. But with my metal detector and a lot of patience, I got to work.

After carefully scanning the area and navigating the tangle of weeds and debris, I finally got a good signal. A little digging, a lot of feeling around and there it was. Her bracelet, still intact and ready to be reunited with its owner.

The relief and gratitude on her face made every second worth it.

It’s a reminder that even in tough conditions, with the right tools and a little persistence, some things really can be found again.

Amazing Ring Recovery at the Dock Port Dalhousie

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

What started as a relaxing day on the water almost turned into a heartbreaking memory for one couple — but thanks to a bit of determination and the right tools, the story had a happy ending.

The couple had been enjoying the summer sun, swimming off the back of their boat while docked. As the boyfriend helped his girlfriend out of the water, disaster struck — his ring slipped off his finger and disappeared into the water below.

That’s when I got the call.

As a diver with a metal detector, I’ve seen my fair share of tricky recoveries, but this one was a challenge. Poor visibility, thick weeds, and murky water made the search feel almost impossible. But I wasn’t about to give up.

After methodically sweeping the area with my detector, a faint signal came through. I carefully reached down through the weeds and muck — and there it was. The ring, still intact, glinting faintly beneath the water.

The look of relief and excitement on their faces made it all worth it. Another successful recovery, another great story, and a reminder that sometimes, even when things seem lost, they’re not gone for good.

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.

As Dave MacDonald, your expert ring finder for Malibu, Broad Beach, Leo Carrillo Beach, and beyond, I promised swift action to recover his cherished item.

The first two sweeps yielded nothing but anticipation. Then, on the third pass, a sharp tone cut through the air—a hit! Digging carefully, I pulled Marlon’s medallion from its sandy hiding spot, gleaming like treasure. His ecstatic leaps and shouts of joy said it all: another successful recovery for the beaches of Malibu, from Thornhill Broome Beach to Sycamore Beach.

Lost Ring in Backyard

  • from Knoxville (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by Dustin after he lost his ring. Dustin said his ring came off after tossing some muck from the pool skimmer over the railing behind his pool. He remembered hearing a sound like the ring hit the concrete. There were a few small trees and lots of underbrush to cover the ring. After I was shown the area I went to work working in sections. Almost 5 minutes later I found the ring.

Lost Phone during Marine Corps Mud Run

  • from Knoxville (Tennessee, United States)

After running in the Marine Corp Mud Run I decided to go looking for any lost items that may have been dropped during the run. I happened to come along a lost phone with a debit card found in the lake. Unfortunately the phone was swollen and had already began to bust. I was able to remove the sim card and found it had a micro SD card as well. I put the sim card into my phone and was able to retrive a phone number. Four days had already elapsed and Emily had replaced her phone but was upset about all the pictures she had lost. I was able to get in touch with her and gave her the bad news about the phone but was hopeful about the Micro SD card since the sim card was good.
