Albert and his girl friend were finishing eating some fast food and as they were heading back to their hotel for the night Albert decided to throw a small piece of trash out of the sun roof and as he let fly the trash object he felt his heavy gold and diamond ring fly off of his finger as well and a slight click was heard. Immediately he pulled his truck to the side of the road and they began scanning the grass and roadside with the lights on their phones! It was 2:30am and after an hour or so of desperate searching they became very frustrated and upset…especially Albert because this was a very special and expensive ring. They called me the next day and I met them at the location and I searched high and low but could not locate his lost ring. I asked Albert if he had searched inside his truck and he assured me that he had. After an hour and a half I mentioned again that there was a good possibility that his ring could have fallen inside his truck somewhere. Albert had searched the inside but only quickly the night before and so another search was done in the daylight and to his great surprise there it was tucked down in a corner safe and sound! Albert was thrilled and so happy to have his lost ring back once again and was all smiles!
How can I help you?

Sentimental Gold Ring Lost in Snow – Recovered in Coon Rapids, Minnesota

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)
I received a call from a gentleman in Coon Rapids, Minnesota, who had lost two precious rings three days earlier. We all know that heart-sinking feeling when something near and dear to us goes missing—or we’ve seen it happen to someone we care about. He managed to recover one ring fairly quickly, but the second one remained elusive. He’d already put in over six hours searching through the snow without success. Frustrated, he even purchased a metal detector from Harbor Freight, only to find it added to his challenges rather than solving them. Many people who lose a ring rush to buy, rent, or borrow a metal detector, assuming they’ll just turn it on and it will beep right over their lost item. While that can happen, more often newcomers are overwhelmed by the constant signals from metal debris in the ground. Anywhere people frequently pass—sidewalks, yards, parks—you’ll encounter pull tabs, foil, nails, and cans. All of that beeps! The real skill in metal detecting lies in experience: interpreting tones, distinguishing trash from treasure, and pushing through the learning curve. As I often tell people, “If you wouldn’t bend over to pick up a penny you spot on the sidewalk, metal detecting might not be for you.” Digging a penny from 3-4 inches deep trains you to recognize those subtle differences—iron grunts differently from a gold ring, which can sound similar to a pull tab. When you’ve just lost a sentimental item, that’s not the ideal time to learn a new detector. That’s when calling an experienced detectorist makes all the difference. In this case, as I entered the search area he’d been working, the very first strong, repeatable tone I got was just inches from where he’d been focusing. The signal was clean and promising—I suspected it was the ring, though you never know until you dig (it could have been junk like part of a muffler). I pinpointed it, gently raked through the crusted snow with a small hand tool, moved about an inch and a half of snow, and there it was: the beautiful gold sheen of his sentimental ring. The recovery took less than two minutes from start to finish. Not every search is this quick—many require hours of patient gridding and digging trash targets. But after enough hunts, you earn those occasional “easy” wins. They’re the ones you appreciate most, because you know the next call might demand far more effort. I was thrilled to return this very meaningful ring to its owner and see the relief on his face. These reunions are why so many of us love being part of TheRingFinders.com—helping preserve irreplaceable stories and memories. If you’ve lost a ring or jewelry in snow, grass, water, or anywhere else, don’t wait—contact a local Ring Finder today!

Jessica called a bit upset because she had just lost her custom made diamond halo ring in her yard only 30 minutes before, and was not able to find it. I tried to see if it was possible to help over the phone, and she tried , but still was unable to find it. It was already dark, and because it was her yard I knew it wasn’t going anywhere, so we arranged to have me come and do a search the next day.

As I was driving up to her house, I did not realize how steep the properties were, so I began to really think about how I was going to do the search. I found the house, and Jessica took me to the back yard where she explained that she was removing the cover from one of her patio chairs, when with the flick of her finger the ring came off in the dark. She heard it ping on the brick deck, and it was gone. I did a visual check of the deck, and there were very few places the ring could have went. Then I looked over the deck railing, and there was about a 20 foot drop with one foot terraces at 3 foot intervals with different types of plants growing. I could see where Jessica had been looking on the first terrace  because the tall decorative grass was flattened from her walking on it. Because the grass was so thick I made sure to search it diligently, but no ring. I then moved to the second terrace, and within a couple of minutes found her very pretty ring. I held it up for her which made her very happy. She then told me it was also her birthday, which made this recovery very special.

Meaghan contacted me wanting help in finding her daughter’s lost ring. Her daughter was playing with some friends in the grass of their yard when while making a spin, her ring flew off of her finger, and was lost in the thick grass. We arranged to meet, and I arrived at the time set.

When I arrived Meaghan met me at her gate, and took me to the back yard of her house. She showed me where the girls were playing when the loss occurred, and explained how they had searched extensively for the ring, but with no luck. I turned on my detector to begin the search, and she went in to the house telling me to let her know if I find the ring. I began my search, and after about 3 passes in the small area, I found the small ring. I went to the door, and let her know, to which she replied, “It hasn’t even been 5 minutes.” She was very happy to have it back, and it was nice to have another successful recovery.

Maria called me and asked if I could possibly help them find a lost diamond engagement ring that was thrown into a yard by their house. At first she mentioned that her son threw it but I later found out that her husband was the one who tossed it during an argument while they were out for a family stroll. He immediately realized the error of his actions and tried to locate his wife’s lost ring and even rented a metal detector…but in the end he was very frustrated with all the noise and sounds and his lack of knowledge in knowing how to use such a machine. I agreed to meet Maria and her husband the next day and after showing me the area it only took 10 minutes to uncover her lost ring. They were so so thankful and I had a lump in my throat as Maria gave me a big hug and beamed a smile that melted my heart. Thank you Maria for calling me and allowing me to be a blessing and encouragement to you and your husband! It truly was an honor and I thank God again for leading me to those He wants me to help along life’s way!

Engagement Ring Lost in Cheektowaga NY Found in the Snow Covered Tennis Court

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

Alex contacted us after running out of options trying to find his wife’s lost engagement ring. To make things more interesting she had actually lost two rings. Alex was lucky enough to recover the wedding ring himself but the engagement ring was still missing and that one was not going to be easy to replace.

The rings were lost the evening before during a walk with the dogs that somehow turned into a game of fetch inside a snow covered tennis court. Because apparently tennis courts do not take the winter off they just change sports.

Between the dogs running full speed snow flying and a lot of movement the engagement ring quietly slipped off and disappeared into the snow. It was not until later that night that the missing ring was noticed and the panic set in.

I showed up the next day and was able to locate the engagement ring quickly before it decided to spend any more time chilling in its snowy hiding spot. The ring was returned to a very relieved and happy couple.

Another successful recovery a great story to tell and a friendly reminder that winter tennis and jewelry do not mix.

Rent a metal detector in Lawrence, New York – Another Ring Found in the Snow… Well, Almost ❄️💍

Another Ring Found in the Snow… Well, Almost ❄️💍

Last night I received a text from Rav — and you could feel the stress through the phone. He was supposed to be leaving Wednesday on vacation with his new fiancée, but there was a problem: his engagement ring had vanished while shoveling snow in the large front yard of his home in Lawrence, New York.

Snow, cold, metal gloves — never a good combination.

Rav had a few spots where he knew the ring could be. Those were my first targets. I carefully scanned each area… once… twice… three times. Nothing. Not even a hopeful beep. At that point, I’ll admit it — I was starting to think this one might turn into a waiting game until the snow melted.

Just as I was about to regroup, I suddenly heard Rav yell out,

“I FOUND IT!”

I turned around to see him standing in the driveway, holding the ring. It turns out that while using the snowblower, he had taken his gloves off right there — and that’s when the ring slipped off. The snow hid it perfectly until the light hit it just right. He spotted the glimmer and picked it up himself.

The relief on his face said everything.

Even though Rav was technically the one who found the ring, he still insisted on paying my full reward. His reasoning? Process of elimination. Since the ring wasn’t in any of the areas I had searched, it had to be somewhere else — and my being there led him to the answer. I only accepted a partial reward.

The truth is, if he had waited until Friday, when the temperature was supposed to hit 55° and the snow melted, the ring probably would’ve surfaced on its own — but by then it could’ve been crushed, bent, or damaged by cars in the driveway. And most importantly, Rav didn’t want to leave for his trip with that stress hanging over him.

As he kept saying,

“If you weren’t here, I never would’ve found it.”

That’s a win in my book — and another happy ending just in time for a vacation and a fresh start.
