Platinum Wedding Rings Lost at the beach in Pacific Grove, CA
Lisa called me on Sunday evening about 9:00 p.m., I was on another call out for Liam at the time. She told me she had lost her wedding set that day and was unsure if it was misplaced or if she had actually lost it at the beach she had visited that day. So I talked with her for a few moments and asked her to describe the area she thought she may have lost the rings. Luckily for me, the beach she described was on my way home from where I was at that time. I was unsure if I could get there that night to look for it or not, it depended on how long the current call I was on took, and I had to work early the next day so I needed my sleep. But the call I was on only took about 25 more minutes and I had time to go look for her rings. I called her and told her I was going to look for them and that I would let her know if I found them. Well let me tell you the place she described to me was perfect, I went to the spot on the beach that she told me of and found an imprint of a beach towel still in the sand. So I may as well start here, I thought. I put my headphones on, turned on my detector and took two swings. Overload! Wow! I scooped the target and carefully sifted two of the the three rings she described, I was so excited I called her immediately. I told her I had recovered two of the three but was sure I had heard the third and would be recovering that one as soon as I got off the phone with her. I did, it was laying about a foot from the others just under the sand. I am so happy I had my phone with me and on while I was searching for Liam’s ring. I met her the next day and returned her rings to her. Lisa told me that the center stone had been in her family a very long time, and that made me even happier that I was able to help her find it. Thank you Lisa!
Lost diamond ring has been found, South Beach, Perth
Ki contacted me recently via TheRingFinders as she had lost a very sentimental ring that had belonged to her Mum. Ki was kind enough to include a quick story of how the ring was lost as well as some nice photo’s. Here is what she wrote……
“The story behind the ring is that it was my mother’s engagement ring. Sadly mum passed away 15 years ago, when I was 13 years old. Dad’s been looking after the rings until about 2 years ago when he passed them onto me. I was too scared to wear them for the first 6 months and just kept them in a safe place.
After work on Tues went down to the beach for just a quick jump in the ocean, meant to take her rings off but forgot. Figured I would be careful and not swim around too much… Didn’t count on the dog knocking them off!
Pandora (the dog), loves to swim, but also always wants to be picked up in the water. She’s a flat coat retriever so it’s a bit of an effort. When she launched herself off me the ring got scraped off and went straight to the bottom. I was looking and looking, about 6 other people were helping, stayed in till sunset so it was probably about an hour, and then Tim went back the next day for another 2 hours.
Found you by googling ‘Underwater Metal Detectors’…
Had no idea there was such a service as yours. We thought we were going to have to figure out how to do it ourselves.
But then you came and managed to find it so quickly. I still can’t believe I have it back. I am so incredibly grateful. Makes her ring even more special!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!”
Thank you Ki for contacting me…it was great to see that ring back on your finger !
All the best for the future,
Tony.

Lost 18k white gold and diamond ring has been found on Rottnest Island, Perth
I headed off early this morning to Rottnest Island, which is about 20kms off the Perth coast.
Laura had contacted me as one of her friends had lost her ring after being dunked in the shallow water. I think they were celebrating her friends impending marriage so losing the engagement ring definitely wasn’t part of the celebrations. Laura was confident of the lost zone. I got details of the time the ring was lost and checked the local tide tables and it appeared the ring was lost at high tide and I was searching at low tide. Hopefully the ring might actually be out of the water.
Well the beach was littered with countless pulltabs and beer caps. This was an area that had probably never seen a metal detector so the amount of digging was unbelievable. I spent the next three and half hours gridding the area but the ring wasn’t revealing itself easily. I rescanned the area at 90 degrees and my final signal for the hunt was the ring! The glint of the diamond was the first thing I saw and what a great feeling it was too. I called Laura with the good news and then headed off to the Rottnest Hotel/Bar for a well deserved cold beer(s) as the return ferry was 4 hours away (most upset about that!).
Glad that today was successful as it wasn’t an easy hunt after all.
Tony.
Here is a quick picture and video of the find…

Lost Wedding Ring Found on Stinson Beach
Lost Wedding Ring Found on Stinson Beach
Last week we received a call from Ross in Atlanta, Georgia. His family had just returned from a visit to the Bay Area, including a day on Stinson Beach in Marin County. While there, his wife Kathia lost her wedding ring. After failing to find the ring and returning to Atlanta, Ross called The Ring Finders.
Ross sent us two important clues: a satellite map with a search area highlighted, and more important, a snapshot taken on the beach that happened to show the location where the family had been. While the satellite map was helpful, the photo gave us an even better fix on where the ring might have been lost.
Rain kept us from searching for four days, but we finally made it up Route 1 to Stinson Beach today. When we arrived, we mapped out the search zone based on the satellite map. This covered an area about half the size of a football field. However, by carefully locating a tree shown in the snapshot, we could identify a “sweet spot” that was about half that size.
Then the hard work began. We searched the sweet spot for almost three hours. After the first hour, a ranger told us we had to leave because we were on the Federal section of the beach. But when we told him Kathia’s story, he let us stay and search!
We assumed the ring would not be too deep, but you know what happens when you assume…At about 6:30pm, we got a deep signal in the last section of the sweet spot. Digging down eight inches, there was the lost wedding ring.
How did a ring sink to eight inches in five days? Our best guess is that rough weather had deposited more sand on the beach. Although the ring was located above the high tide line, there were indications that the water had risen much higher during the last couple of days. So a ring that might have started at a depth of two inches was now covered by six extra inches of sand. Fortunately, we had a metal detector that could find the ring that deep.
