Do you need a metal detector to find something that is lost in your yard, ocean or at the park? Why not hire a professional metal detecting expert instead. My name is Mike McInroe…Central Florida Ring Finder at 321-363-6029! On land, in the water, at the park, in the grass, sand, in cars, homes…rings, jewelry, keys, phones, property markers, etc.

I received a call from Jeff asking about theringfinders service and if I was available to help his brother and sister in law look for a very special ring lost in the ocean. I was super busy that day so I gave them Mr Edward Duffey’s number and he and a friend went out at the next low tide to look for their lost ring…but were unsuccessful! The next day my wife, daughter and grandson wanted to go to the beach so I opted to head out as well only a bit further north…right where Nick and his wife were swimming when their ring was lost. I arrived right at low tide and after talking to Nick I set out my flags and began searching the wet sand and out into the water. I had forgotten to ask what sort of ring or rings I was looking for and about 35 minutes into my search I got a good solid signal about knee deep and there in my scoop was a beautiful gold ring with a fairly large diamond and I could only imagine that this was the one that was lost. And since I had plenty of time and daylight I decided to continue searching. About 10 later I got another solid signal, knee deep in the surf, and again I spotted another gold ring in my Xtreme Scoop…a thinner wedding ring. A few minutes later Nick’s mother in law came walking down the beach towards me and I politely asked if she was the one who lost a ring…and she said no…it was my daughter. So I asked about the ring and as soon as I heard the description and that there were two rings that were lost I said, “Well I have found a couple of rings”…and that got her attention big time! When I pulled out the large diamond engagement ring she could not believe it and she started yelling and jumping up and down. I said wait a minute…I have another ring here as well and then she came unglued!! Jumping and waiving her arms, yelling and crying and then she started running up the beach towards the house. Then I saw Nick and his wife come running down to meet her and they began hugging and crying…it was absolutely amazing to watch the joy and sheer delight that they were experiencing. I couldn’t help but thank God for allowing me to be a blessing to this young couple and to find their lost rings!

Lost Yellow Gold & Diamond Engagement Ring at Iroquois Point Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a late night text from Kanga which said, “Aloha! I lost my engagement ring today around 4-5 pm at Iroquois Point Beach.  I think it’s buried in the sand.  Based on your experience, do you think there’s a good chance it’s still in the sand?  I texted back, “Dry sand or in the water? I’ll see what I can do early morning.”  It was dry sand.  She only went in the water briefly and she thought she would have taken it off before going in.  Kanga sent a few pics of the area.  I told her we could meet at 6am at the beach parking lot.  When Shiraz and Kanga arrived they gave me a few more details and marked the area to search.  Shiraz said had the ring been on the blanket he would have only dumped it off as he didn’t snap the blanket which could have thrown the ring a good distance and who knows which direction.  I fired up the Manticore and started the grid search.  On the first leg, only a chunk of foil, which sounded terrific.  Then on the return leg I got a nice tone and looked down.  There proudly exposed was the gorgeous diamond sparkling in the morning sun.  I reached down picked it up and it was a Marquise cut beauty.  Got it!  Kanga & Shiraz came running over to see.  Kanga was obviously choked up a bit, as she spent so much time hunting the beach and home because she wasn’t positive when it had come off.  This beautiful couple is getting married on the 4th of July.  So happy the ring will be there!  Aloha to Kanga & Shiraz!

Wedding set recovered in Asbury Park NJ

Recovery in Asbury Park NJ Dennis Burlingame. 908 489 2371, Got a call from Tina asking for help in finding her wedding set she lost on Asbury Park beach. Told her I’d be there as soon as possible. She met me at the beach entrance and took me where she was sitting. Seems while enjoying the day at the beach she took off her rings and placed them in her husbands hat while putting lotion on her daughter’s, but didnt let her husband know they were there. He went to put his hat on and the rings through out into the sand. I search an area they thought they might of landed but didnt hear them. I moved under the tent they had set up and got my first signal and out came ring number 1 just behind her husbands chair. Had her move the chair and found the second one under where his chair was sitting. She couldnt believe how quick I found them. A great happy ending to what could of been a sad day.

Needle in a Haystack in Hillsboro, Alabama… FOUND!

Alvintae “Kirk” texted me on Sunday afternoon (June 14, 2026) stating he lost a yellow gold pinky ring with an eagle (not quite a needle, but close, lol) while laying hay in his raised garden beds at his home in Hillsboro, Alabama.  Kirk recently lost some weight, and the ring was fitting him loosely.   This ring was very sentimental to Kirk because it was given to him by his late uncle about a year prior.  Our schedules didn’t line up until Friday, so we set up a search for that morning.

I made the very beautiful and peaceful 55-minute drive to Hillsboro on Friday morning.  After meeting Kirk, I had him walk me through the whole scenario and asked some clarifying questions.  Kirk really felt like his ring fell off into the first of four raised garden beds.  Unfortunately, the raised beds were made out of a thick galvanized steel that rang in around the gold range on my metal detector.  Even turning down the sensitivity didn’t get me as close as I wanted to the sides.  I also checked if I could discriminate out the metal (even though it was reading as non-ferrous) with my Nokta AccuPOINT pinpointer, but that didn’t work.

I asked Kirk to pull out the hay that was on top of the wood logs in the beds.  I would scan the hay piles with my Equinox Minelab 900 as he pulled it out.  Kirk got about ¾ of it out and I went back and scanned over the wood logs that were inside the beds, but I was still getting interference from the steel sides.  We decided to move the entire bed frame siding out of the way, so that I could get an accurate and unmasked reading.  We carefully moved the bed so that we didn’t damage a pretty plant that Kirk’s wife really likes.  As I was detecting over the back part of the remaining hay in the bed area, I received a good, repeatable 25-27 on my Nox.  I told Kirk that this was a very promising tone.  I walked over and took out my Garrett “carrot” pinpointer to narrow down the area.  I got the tone and gently brushed the hay away and there was that glimmer of gold-on-gold staring back at us!  We both let out some shouts of joy and immediately thanked the good Lord.  Kirk was so excited, relieved, and thankful that his uncle’s ring was found.

We took some photos and chatted for a few minutes before I was back on the road, headed home to Huntsville.  I’m truly blessed that I get to be a blessing to others.  Until the next one, please take care and God bless…

Another wedding ring safely returned in Western Wisconsin!

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)
 I got a call from a gentleman who had just gotten home from vacation and realized his wedding ring was missing. He had lost a little weight recently, so the ring was fitting a bit loose. He wasn’t sure if it had slipped off while carrying things into the house or somewhere in his yard. He had a pretty small backyard, so I met up with him and started searching right away. I checked the yard and his car with no luck. He then mentioned he had been out on the deck the night before, grabbing logs for the fireplace. I searched the log pile and a box of sawdust and kindling. Using my pin-pointer, I got a signal at the bottom of the kindling box — and there it was, buried in the sawdust! He was genuinely surprised. He told me he had pretty much been going through the motions and didn’t expect it to be found. Seeing how happy he was to have his ring back made the search very worthwhile.
If you’ve lost a ring or other piece of jewelry in Western Wisconsin, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to help.

Gold Ring Lost in Anahiem, CA. Backyard Grass Found by Stan the Metal Detector Man

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 

Cloe needed he;p to find a lost ring in the backyard lawn, so she called me after finding me on a google seach. Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

*** Cloe called for my metal detecting service after she lost her gold ring in grass at a yard of where she was babysitting youngsters. She was very confident that the ring was in the backyard. The location was near the city of Anahiem, CA. which is30 or 40 minutes drive for me.

I met Cloe later that afternoon and she took me to the large backyard explaining that she had been playing kickball all over the lawn area. It would have been difficult to see a small gold ring visually as much of the grass was a brown/yellow color.

I grid searched the lawn area getting many metal signals which were too deep to check by finger searching the grass. This type search could take forever dropping to my knees to investigate every signal.  After swinging my detector over 3/4 of the lawn area, I got a strong surface signal and the ID numbers on my detector were close to gold numbers. As I stared into the dead brown/yellow grass I spotted Cole’s ring.

She was standing near so I called her over to see where it had been hiding. She was so happy and grateful to have her ring back where it belongs..

Lost Tungsten Wedding Band at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began as I was hunting the Aulani lagoon this morning, when a lady named Brenda, approached me and said, “My brother in law Ryan lost his gray Titanium ring right in this area.”  She was pointing in the area of the lagoon I had just gone through and found a gray Tungsten ring about ten minutes prior.  She asked if she could take a picture of the ring and send to him as he was off on an ABC store run.  Shortly there after she came back and said, “That’s the one!”  Often times people don’t remember the metal type of their rings.  A short time later Ryan and his lovely wife Linda arrived and the ring was a perfect fit.  Ryan told me he had been throwing a football when it came off but wasn’t exactly sure where it had fallen.  Vacation saved and back to San Francisco tomorrow with his ring on his finger.  Aloha to Ryan & Linda!
