Jackson found my contact information online and called me in late July 2026 regarding his wife’s lost pendant. He said it came loose from the thin gold chain necklace and fell between the front passenger seat and center console of their car back in April of 2025. The pendant was a gift from her grandmother, so it was very sentimental to her. Jackson and his wife, Elizabeth, spent hours looking under, in between and around the seats for the pendant, but were never able to see it, but were still very confident that it was still there. They had even used a vacuum several times, each time carefully inspecting what the vacuum sucked up, but still no pendant.

In talking with Jackson, I learned that his workplace was just a few miles from my home and I asked if he would be willing to bring his car to my house so I could use my endoscope to search for the pendant. He agreed and showed up on July 28 as planned. After several minutes I was able to slide the endoscope between the underside of the carpet and the metal floor of the car and actually see the pendant. Our attempts to feed a long flexible wire with a hooked end to retrieve the pendant were unsuccessful. Not wanting to damage the pendant or his vehicle, I suggested he take the car to the dealership to have them remove the seat. On August 21st I got the text from Jackson that I been waiting for. They were on their way home from the dealership and Elizabeth’s pendant was in fact concealed deep under the carpet of the front seat. Although I wasn’t able to hand the pendant to Elizabeth myself, just knowing that I gave them the confirmation they needed to have the seat removed at the dealership works for me. This makes my 100th successful ring/jewelry recovery since I joined TheRingFinders directory in March of 2023.

Wedding Ring Lost in Harpeth River Found With Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

 

Jeff and his wife were enjoying the cool water of the Harpeth River in beautiful Leiper’s Fork, TN on June 20th when he lost his gold wedding band. They spent hours looking under rocks in the shallow river, which luckily was only six to ten inches deep in that area. Unable to find his ring, a family member of his looked on the internet and found my info on TheRingFinders directory. When Jeff contacted me I was in TX, but I assured him that based on what he told me, it was likely that the ring was nestled down in the rocks and probably even covered in silt from the flowing water, making it even more difficult to find. With Jeff’s hectic work schedule and me being out of town, we aimed for the search to be done today on June 28th. This search was the first of three searches on this day.

We met at the small winery along the river at 10:30 am. The business hadn’t opened yet however there were still about ten people seated in chairs in the shallow spots, enjoying the shade. A nice couple moved their chairs after Jeff mentioned why we were there. As the growing crowd of onlookers watched I continued my search for Jeff’s ring. After a few non-target items like pocket change and pull tabs were detected and removed from the river, I got another signal. Jeff was watching eagerly when I pulled the ring out from under some rocks and asked, “Does it look anything like this?” Everyone was cheering and clapping for Jeff. The pictures don’t do any justice to the river, but in my opinion it was the smiles on Jeff and his wife’s face that meant the most to me.

Lost Ring in Murfreesboro TN Found With Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

I got a call from Mitchell on June 6th, 2026 a few hours after he lost a very special ring in his backyard. It was a warm day, so he and his kids had a water balloon fight in their Murfreesboro, TN back yard. He felt the ring fly off his finger. The lush green grass in his yard, or possibly even one of the adjoining neighbor’s yards swallowed up his ring. He spent hours walking barefoot in his yard, hoping he’d find it by stepping on it, to no avail. He then found my information on TheRingFinders directory and gave me a call.

Mitchell’s father had owned the ring for many years and gave it to Mitchell just last year. Mitchell cherishes the ring and had worn it daily, so finding it was a must. I made the 45 minute drive from Nashville and met with Mitchell. He eagerly showed me where the water balloon fight took place. He anxiously watched as I started a grid search with my metal detector, and luckily he didn’t have to wait long. At the five minute mark I got the signal I was hoping for, it was Mitchell’s gorgeous white gold and diamond ring. Needless to say, Mitchell was all smiles. What a great feeling to reunite people with their lost treasures.

On April 28th. 2026 I received a call from a very nice lady named Paula. She had lost her beloved 14K gold brooch on Sunday, April 26th, most likely at her church. The brooch was the most sentimental item that she had received from her late husband, so to her it was priceless. Paula had already alerted the church staff to be on the lookout for her brooch inside the church buildings.

I met with Paula at her church about one hour after receiving her call. She showed me the route that she walked from the entry doors of the church to where she had been parked. I found a gold earring along the path, concealed in the grass, but not Paula’s brooch. Paula turned the earring into the lost and found in the church reception area. Paula asked me help her look inside the church, just to get a fresh pair of eyes to visually search the floors. No luck inside the church.

Once outside, Paula asked if I’d follow her to her friend’s house a few minutes drive away so I could use my metal detector along the path to her friend’s front door. I agreed to the search at her friend’s house, but asked if I could search her vehicle first. She assured me that she had searched her vehicle thoroughly and did not find the brooch. Using my digital borescope I searched under and around the driver’s seat and located Paula’s brooch tucked away, completely hidden from the naked eye. I showed her the screen with the live image of her brooch and she cried tears of joy. When I handed Paula her beautiful brooch she gave me the biggest hug and said, “You made my day! No, I take that back. You made my whole year!” It’s a wonderful feeling to re-unite nice people like Paula with their treasures that they thought were gone forever.

Ryan called me on April 16th and said he had lost his rose gold wedding band the back yard of his Antioch, TN home twelve to eighteen months ago. He was confident it was in a 10’x15’ area of his backyard. He had bought a metal detector and found it was a huge waste of his time. I was in Mississippi on another RingFinder detail, but I assured Ryan that I would help him out when I got back to TN.

I called Ryan on April 17th when I was back in TN and he was ready for me to look for his ring. I first detected the area where Ryan expected his ring to be, but only found a few pennies, a dime and some small foil pieces. I expanded the search area and sixteen minutes into the search I got another signal that I expected to be another penny. About 1/2” to 1” deep was Ryan’s ring. I dusted it off and it looked as good as new. Ryan appreciated my detailed grid search and forensic approach to locating his ring. He admitted that he was a little nervous when he saw that I had to expand the search area. Thank you Ryan for trusting me to find your lost ring.

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)


Alvaro was digging in his front yard to find a leaking pipe when he lost his gold wedding band. He bought a metal detector at a hardware store and tried for hours how to use, but all it did was make a constant chattering noise. His wife, Katie, did an online search and located me on TheRingFinders directory. Due to weather we held off on the search for a few days. On today’s date, 01-11-2026, it was a clear day, although a bit cold and windy. I arrived at 9am as promised and was briefed by Alvaro where he thought the ring could be. Three minutes and fourteen seconds later, I got the signal on my XP Deus 2 metal detector that I was hoping for. It was a pleasure finding Alvaro’s wedding band and meeting the young couple. Finding lost treasures for people that have all but given up hope of ever seeing that treasure again is a great feeling.

Men’s White Gold Wedding Ring with Diamonds Found in Nashville with a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

I got a text from Nicole on Nov. 12th at about 4PM. She said her husband, Roy, was working at a home in Nashville today when he lost his white gold wedding band in the front yard. Nicole explained that the front yard was huge, however the area where Roy thought he lost his ring was confined to a much smaller area. She said Roy had already rented a metal detector and looked for his ring for several hours, along with his brother and the owner of the property. With sunset at 4:45PM tonight Nicole was worried about it being too dark for me to search for the ring. No worries I told her, telling her that I am well equipped for nighttime searches in the dark.

I arrived at the large estate in the Green Hills area of Nashville and met with Roy. After be showed me the areas of the front yard where he had been working, I fired up my metal detector, started a stopwatch and began a grid search. Just before the thirteen minute mark I located Roy’s ring in some wood chips adjacent to the concrete front porch to the residence. This was the first ring recovery for me where I actually saw the ring with my eyes before swinging the metal detector coil over it. It is Fall, so it’s quite possible that the ring had been concealed by fallen leaves and by the time I arrived they were blown away by the cool Fall breeze.

What’s important is that Roy was reunited with his wedding ring. He said he would have lost a lot of sleep if it wasn’t found. Roy thanked me and said now he will be able to pass his ring on to his son one day.
