CALL SURF CITY RING FINDER

Metal Detecting Service 714-944-0555

I received a call from Phill’s wife last night stating that he lost his late father’s Gold Ring while throwing a football to his Son. We agreed to me coming out this morning since it was dark and getting late.
I gridded the area with no luck so I went back to where I started and I got a nice low VDI double signal and I knew this had to be his ring. I had to use my pin-pointer in the dense grass to recover his ring.

Phill was elated to get his Ring back!

Women’s Engagement Ring Lost in Athens, Alabama… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Christina McCree – Ring Finder/Metal Detectorist for northern Alabama and southern/middle Tennessee.  Call or text ASAP, anytime 24/7 at 610-504-6135.

On Friday (November 14, 2025) evening I received a call from Stacey stating a few days prior she had lost her engagement ring while walking down the back porch.  It was cold and she was trying to put on her ring while holding her son.  The ring caught on her fingernail and flew off.  She heard it hit some leaves in the yard.  It was at night, so it was dark out and she couldn’t tell exactly where it went.  We set up a search for the next morning.

I met Stacey around 9:30 Saturday morning in Athens, Alabama.  Stacey showed me exactly how it happened.  Her husband, Victor told me the ring is sterling silver.  I grabbed my Minelab Equinox 900 and started my search.  After a few minutes, a little further from the porch and behind a tarp, I saw Stacey’s ring on the ground!  Stacey and Victor were very happy and thankful to have it back.  Stacey told me that she had searched that area, but there were a lot of leaves, so I’m sure it was completely covered up when they were looking.

Thankful and blessed for another successful recovery!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless…

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

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

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.

Wedding ring lost in car, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

NJ ring Finder

Christine called one evening around dinner with a little different kind of request. Her husband, Kevin, had lost his wedding ring in their car four months earlier. They had searched countless times without success, even pulling up sections of the carpet, thinking the ring might have slipped through one of the small openings. They had also asked a dealer to take a look during a service visit, but still no luck. Although the dealer suggested removing the seats, the cost was too high, so they decided against it.

Christine had been following NJ Ring Finder success stories and knew about the wide variety of items I had recovered. I assured her that I had an endoscope, which could reach into small spaces, and I was happy to take a look since it was a fairly common request. We arranged to meet, and when they arrived, I got to work.

After a short search, I began to wonder if the ring was still in the car. Kevin was absolutely certain it had bounced off the center console and fallen beside the seat, but sometimes memories can blur, especially after four months. Still, Kevin’s confidence reassured me, so I gathered more tools to remove the front seat. There was one spot where I thought I had spotted the ring with my endoscope but couldn’t reach it with the seat in place.

With the seat unbolted, Kevin helped me tip it on its side to avoid disconnecting the wires. Sure enough, tucked in the far corner of the seat’s sliding mechanism, there was Kevin’s ring, just as he had described. Using a small grabber tool, I carefully retrieved it, much to Christine and Kevin’s surprise. After four long months, the ring was finally found.

NJ Ring Finder, Edward Trapper was able to find/recover a lost item, after 4 long months, where no others were able to complete the task at hand.

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

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

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.

North Wildwood NJ Lost Bracelet Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

Lost Gold Bracelet Found in North Wildwood Garden!

Kate was gardening in North Wildwood, NJ when something unfortunate happened — she lost her beloved gold bracelet. She searched the area carefully but had no luck finding it. Feeling frustrated and disappointed, she remembered hearing about the Ring Finders South Jersey.

That’s when she contacted me — her local North Wildwood ring finder.

I answered her call right away and asked a few key questions about where she thought she lost it. Kate explained she had been moving plants and spreading mulch when she noticed the bracelet was gone.

Luckily, I was nearby and told her I’d be there in 10 minutes. I grabbed my metal detector and headed over.

When I arrived, we walked around the yard. Kate pointed out a grassy area and the garden where she had been working. I began searching the grass first. After a few passes, the detector stayed silent. No signals there.

Then I moved to the garden bed where Kate had spent some of her time that morning. Almost instantly, my metal detector gave off the sound I had been listening for!

I carefully dug into the soil, pushing aside the fresh mulch. About five inches down, I spotted a glimmer of gold — the bracelet was found!

Kate was so relieved. She said, “Thank you for finding the bracelet, it is very special to me!” Hearing that made my day.

She explained that it must have slipped off while she was moving soil and plants. The bracelet had great sentimental value, and she thought it was gone forever. But thanks to the Ring Finders South Jersey and a fast response, she had it back in no time.

It was an awesome day in North Wildwood, NJ — one that ended with a happy reunion between Kate and her lost jewelry.

If you ever lose something valuable outdoors in Cape May, Wildwood Crest, Wildwood, Avalon, Stone Harbor, Sea Isle City, don’t panic. Contact your local North Wildwood ring finder. We’re trained to recover lost jewelry, keys, and other metal items using professional equipment.

Whether it’s on the beach, in the yard, or even buried under mulch — I’m here to help!

How to find a lost ring in yard debris, Princeton NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

I noticed a post on one of the lost jewelry pages about a missing wedding ring, lost somewhere in the backyard within a pile of yard debris. Someone had tagged me on the post, and later, Cheryl gave me a call. She explained that her husband, John, had been doing yard work, moving logs, branches, and leaves  when he realized later that day his wedding ring was missing.

John was 99% sure the ring was in the yard and had a pretty good idea of where it might be. He believed he had felt it pull off his hand when he threw some debris. I asked Cheryl to send me a short video to make sure Id be able to swing my metal detector in the dense thicket where the ring might have landed. From the video, everything looked manageable, so we arranged to meet the following morning.

When I arrived, John and Cheryl came outside to greet me. I grabbed my equipment, and we walked out to the backyard. I had John recount exactly what happened a few times to make sure I had all the details. His story on the phone matched what he told me in the backyard, which gave me confidence that the ring was out there.

I got to work right away. After quickly scanning some larger areas and checking along the back fence, I only picked up a few signals, none consistent with a platinum ring. But then, I spotted a large pile of leaves and small sticks about three feet from the back fence. It looked promising, especially since John had mentioned pulling debris with his bare hands in that spot.

I scanned over the pile and picked up a strong, steady signal. It could have been the ring, though there was a chance it was just a pull tab. I cleared an area where the signal was strongest, digging down about two feet. Sure enough, at the very bottom of the pile, I found John’s ring.

Meanwhile, John and Cheryl were chatting by the pool about yard work. I cleaned the ring off a bit, stood up, and held it high to show them. Cheryls eyes widened, and she immediately said, I can’t believe you found it already! Where was it?

They both hurried over, and I showed them the cleared area in the middle of the leaf pile. They were absolutely stunned at how quickly I had found the ring.

I explained that preparation and listening carefully to the customer are key to a successful search. Narrowing down the possible locations allows me to focus on the most likely spots first, which saves a lot of time and effort.

Finding lost items isn’t just about luck it’s about methodical searching and trusting the process.

Citadel Military College Ring Lost Playing Disc Golf in Huntsville, AL… FOUND!

  • from Huntsville (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from Cesar on Saturday (September 6th, 2025) just before 4pm.  He made a post in the North Alabama Disc Golf Facebook group and one of my co-workers, Rob, sent him my info.  Cesar was playing in a disc golf tournament at the Mastin Lake Course in Huntsville, Alabama that morning.  Cesar finished some practice shots and just before he threw the frisbee at the first hole, it started raining.  He used a towel to dry his hands, but they were still pretty wet when he threw the frisbee.  Right as Cesar got to the second hole and he set down his bag is when he noticed his cherished 2003 class ring from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, was gone.  When Cesar called, I was doing some things around my house.  Mastin Lake Park is only 10 minutes away, so I told Cesar that I would change, grab my gear, and head his way.

I met Cesar just before 4:30 pm at Mastin Lake Park.  I had him show me all the areas he was at.  He told me that he really felt that his ring came off at the first hole, because it usually fits him snug and the wet hands from the rain probably caused it to slip off on the frisbee throw.  I searched the area with my Minelab Equinox 900 with the 15-inch coil from where Cesar was standing to the basket and extended the sides of my grid fairly wide.  No ring.  Even though Cesar didn’t think his ring came off on the practice throws, I still wanted to search that area to clear it.  No ring there.

We eventually went back to the first hole since that was where it was raining.  Cesar re-enacted the throw and he had a strong follow through with his right hand (hand with the ring) to the right side.  I began searching further out to the right than where I had before.  Cesar was walking ahead of me searching with his eyes.  A few minutes later I heard Cesar say, “oh my God” as he bent down and picked up his yellow gold Citadel class ring!!  Woo-hoo!  I immediately looked to the sky and said, “thank you, God!”  Cesar was so happy and thankful that he had his very sentimental class ring back!  He gave me a big hug.  We were both surprised at how far his ring flew.  I added two photos at the end of where Cesar was standing and where the disc golf basket was.  Cesar said his ring landed so far away and he had never looked in that area earlier in the day.  What a miracle to find it!  Praise the Lord!

Cesar and I chatted for a few minutes, took some photos, and we parted ways, headed home.  Until the next one, please take care and God bless!

Wedding Ring Lost Doing Yard Work, Moorestown NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

I received a call from Jason regarding his lost wedding ring, which he believed had come off while doing yard work. Jason explained that he had been raking leaves, dumping them at the curb, and moving between his house, garage, and yard. In between, he had also been playing ball with his son. There was even a chance the ring could have fallen through the deck boards into the leaves below.

Jason was heading out for a long weekend, and with the township potentially vacuuming up the leaves, time was of the essence. I rearranged my schedule to meet him that afternoon. When I arrived, we had about 15 minutes before Jason had an hour-long client meeting, so we quickly reviewed his activities and the specific areas he had been in. He also informed me he borrowed a detector from a friend and had no luck. He also showed me the garage, where he had removed his gloves, and the backyard, where he had been playing with his son.

After gathering my equipment, I set my machine for shallow depth, as the ring wouldn’t be far beneath the surface. I started with the leaf piles at the curb, then made quick passes through the side and front yards, but had no luck. Moving to the backyard, where the most activity had taken place, I received a promising signal on my first pass.

I cleared a few leaves and some dirt to reveal Jason’s wedding ring, just under the surface. It appeared the ring had come off when he removed his catcher’s mitt and accidentally stepped on it, pushing it slightly into the ground.

I messaged Jason immediately, and he came down before his meeting. He was amazed that the ring had been found so quickly. I explained how careful detective work to narrow down the most likely spots was key to a successful recovery. Jason was ecstatic to have his ring back, especially before leaving for his trip.

Another successful recovery!
