Lost Car Key Fob on Hiking Trail … Found and Returned .. Costa Mesa, CA.

I Helped Andy find his key fob, I am available to help you, if you lost an item that can be found with a metal detector.. Call or Text Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

*** Andy lost his electronic car key fob while hiking on a local hiking trail near his home in Costa Mesa, CA.

He called me for help after looking for two days. We decided that it has to be hiding out of sight. Which is a perfect situation to use a metal detector. It does help to hear his story to determine if we can use a metal detector.

He had strayed off the trail one time to pick up some trash. This was where he thought the fob could have slipped from his hand. When we got to the general area, he pointed out a bush that he recognized as the spot where the trash had been.

We did find the key fob, but it was not near the bush. It was near a bush 30 feet away from where he thought he picked up the trash. Happens all the time, I always know, that after a person leaves the site of the loss, it is difficult to get back to the same location. We call it searching outside the box.

It was a pleasure to help Andy, and I know it saved him a lot of time and expense. I got to see a happy guy that was relieved to have his lost item returned.

Engagement Ring lost on the beach, Ship Bottom NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

It was a beautiful day when Shari and her friends decided to spend some time at the beach. Not long into their day, Shari had a little mishap that would lead to me recovering her beautiful ring. It had disappeared into the soft, white sand of the Jersey Shore. After searching for quite some time, Shari realized it was time to call a professional.
I had just received another call for a ring recovery, but it was in the dry sand, with no danger of being lost to the rising tide. Shari’s ring, however, was right near the high-tide line, and she was worried it would be swept away. I assured her I would get there as soon as possible and decided to prioritize her recovery to beat the tide. I sent her my ETA, and just before I arrived, she informed me that both calls were actually for the same ring. I hadn’t even looked at the other pin location—I just knew both were in Beach Haven, LBI.
Well, all’s well that ends well. Shari’s ring was in my scoop within a minute or so. You may be wondering about the conflicting stories. Both were true: the ring was in the dry sand, with no real danger of the tide taking it. But in Shari’s eyes, since it was so close to the high-tide line, she believed it was at risk of being washed away. Two different perspectives, but both valid.

The other night, I got a call from Bryn, who was in a bind. He and his wife Camille had spent a sunny day at Solimar Beach in Ventura County, soaking up the sand and surf. But when they got home, Bryn noticed his wedding ring was gone. He remembered where they’d been sitting on the beach, though he’d wandered a bit—making trips around the area—so he wasn’t sure if it was lost in the sand or elsewhere. Time was ticking, but Solimar Beach isn’t a hot spot for other detectorists, so I knew we had a solid shot at ring recovery in Ventura County if it was there.
I arrived at Solimar Beach, zeroed in on their spot, and started gridding the sand with my Minelab Manticore. After a couple of passes, I hit a crisp 54-55 tone—a number that often means a zinc penny, but I had a hunch. I plunged my CKG titanium scoop into the sand, shook it out, and felt something hefty. There it was: a stunning 18k gold hammered men’s wedding ring—one of the most beautiful recoveries I’ve made in Ventura County. I thanked God for the find and called Bryn with the good news. He and Camille were overjoyed, and we set up a meet to reunite him with his ring.

Lost Gold Heirloom Band at Hale Koa Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began when I got a call from Kathy who was on vacation from Buffalo, New York and staying at the Hale Koa Hotel in Waikiki.  While enjoying a day at the beach with friends she put her four rings in a beach wrap to apply suntan lotion.  Later when she retrieved the wrap her four rings fell out into the sand.  They were able to find three but the fourth ring which was her Father’s wedding ring became well hidden in the sand and after an hour with no sign of the precious heirloom that’s when someone told them about “The Ring Finders”.  I told Kathy I was 15 minutes away and would come right down to hunt.  When I arrive, turn on the detector and take a few steps.  BOOM #41 on the Manticore, one scoop and ring recovered.  Hugs & Joy all around!  Aloha to Kathy!

I was contacted by Cody and Rebecca after Cody’s wedding ring was lost at the beach. He had taken it of to secure it in their bag when he went into the water. What happened was the bag was moved before the ring was retrieved, and when Cody went to put it back on it was gone, supposedly in the sand somewhere. I had just finished another search, and was immediately available, letting them know I would be there in a short amount of time.

When I got there I met Cody and Rebecca down on the sand where they had been sitting. They told me that they had left earlier, but were able to secure the same spot when they returned. They also said that they had searched with friends for a considerable amount of time to no avail. I began my search, but before I did I placed a nickle on the sand and went over it with my detector; no signal. The amount of iron in the sand was canceling out anything else, so I had to make adjustments in my detector in order to be able to use it in this environment. I then began to search, and within 10 minutes I had Cody’s ring. He and Rebecca were thrilled to see it again, and congratulated me on the recovery. It also always makes my day to be able to hand what once was thought lost forever back to the rightful owner.

Old Silver Beach, Falmouth, Massachusetts. Men’s Lost Wedding Ring Found for Owner by Metal Detecting

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

16 September 2024

When George lost the gold wedding band that had encircled his ring finger for 47 years he had little hope that he’d ever see it again.  He’d been enjoying a swim in chest deep water when he felt the ring slip off, and an attempted search in the mobile sand proved fruitless.  Later in the evening his daughter learned of the RingFinders through the Fabulous Falmouth Facebook page and early the next morning she called me to see if I might be able to help.  I of course said yes, I’d be happy to do a search.  She said she’d get in touch with her father, who lives off-Cape, so that we could arrange to meet and he could direct me to the area to search.  When I received his call and got some information about where he lost the ring I headed to the beach to start the search while he was on his way to meet me.  The timing was good, tide-wise, as water in the search area was now only shin- to knee-deep.  It was also good that I had received the call early, as there were already two other detectorists in the area when I arrived.  Fortunately, there was no conflict over the places that we were searching.

I set up a search pattern and within about 45 minutes had that magical signal that says ‘gold’.  One scoop and I pulled up George’s ring.  It had taken only one and a half tidal cycles for the ring to be buried 6-8″ deep as the waves shifted sand across the seabed.

I pocketed the ring and continued on searching the area while I waited for George to arrive.  He appeared about a half hour later and we stood on the beach and chatted for a few minutes.  He pointed out the area where he thought the ring was lost (spot- on for the area I’d searched!) and expressed his disappointment about losing the ring and his feeling that it was lost cause that it could ever be found.  We finally got to talking about the ring itself and I asked him to describe it to me.  As he finished his description I palmed the ring from my pocket, opened my hand, and asked, “does it look something like this?”  Needless to say, that next moment is always one of the BEST that one can possibly experience in life – the surprise, disbelief and joy of the recipient, together with the surge of happiness I feel, knowing that I’ve been able to make that happen.

Well, to make a long story short, I took a few pictures to go with this little story and we continued some conversation about life in general, and grandchildren in particular.  It was a beautiful day.

Lost White Gold Wedding Band at Queen’s Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began when I got a text from Jason from Houston, Texas  who was spending his honeymoon in Waikiki with his lovely wife Diana.  While the newlyweds were enjoying a Waikiki sunset and after entering the water Jason realized his white gold wedding band had fallen off his finger.  He hadn’t moved around too much and had the exact location pinpointed so I agreed to meet them first light and see if we could find his ring.  We met on Queen’s Beach at 6:30 and Jason went over the location to hunt.  I did the topside dry sand and down the wet slope a ways but the ring never showed.  I realized I was going to have to enter the water.  It was high tide and the water was going way up the slope and I wasn’t looking forward to the fight.  Thankfully, no good targets in the water and on the third leg going up the wet slope I got a loud 34-46 tone on the Manticore and one scoop later there was Jason’s ring.  The honeymooners were obviously over the moon with excitement with the quick recovery.  A few hugs and handshakes and now they can enjoy their honeymoon with out having a lost wedding ring hanging over them.  While waiting for them, I found a black silicone band I gave to Jason so it could help hold his band in place.  Aloha to Jason & Diana!

LOST A RING?

DON’T WAIT TO CALL

215-850-0188

Michael found me on Facebook through several recommendations to my Ring Finders South Jersey page. His daughter and friend had lost some jewelry on the beach in Ocean City, NJ. They were enjoying the day when they placed a promise ring, earrings, a class ring, and a necklace in the cup holder for safekeeping. While they swam in the ocean, they forgot that the jewelry was there and it fell out when they folded up the chair to leave. After realizing the jewelry was missing, they went back and found some of it, but couldn’t find the others. Thirty minutes later, I met Catherine and Erin on the beach in the general area and began a quick search with my metal detector. I found one earring, then another. One more sweep and then I found the promise ring! A happy ending in Ocean City, NJ!

Lost and found Rolex watch in Rideau river Ottawa

  • from Cobourg (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:

Today was a very special recovery and a four weeks in the making. Chris was swimming in the Rideau river. As he slowly let himself go from the ladder off the back deck, the clasp of his heirloom Rolex watch came undone and watched in horror as the watch slip off his hand and sank into the water. This special watch was purchased by his mom, and given to his dad to celebrate his retirement after 33 years of loyal service with the Canadian Navy. It was given to Chris when his father passed. After having Scuba divers try to find the watch, on three separate occasions and some with underwater metal detectors, he started to loose hope of ever seing his watch again. Fortunately, he was able to put me within a twenty foot radius of where he believed the watch had fallen into the water. Unfortunately, had to deal with about five inches of silt which brings visibility to zero once you start swinging your coil. But, after finding multiple various metal items, I was finally able to feel the watch with my fingers under the coil of my detector. After surfacing, I was able to give Chris his father’s watch and get it back on his wrist. He was extremely happy and emotional and was a great moment for all. Another happy and special recovery. Life is good!

Barnstable, Cape Cod, MA Pearl Earring Lost and Found with RingFinder’s Help

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

September 15, 2024

A wonderful day at a nature center turned into a stressful night for Carolyn. While helping her children through the Nature Trail and before leaving the center one of her cherished pearl earrings came dislodged from her ear, however the earring back did not. Thinking of how to find the earring, Carolyn went to a hardware store that rents a metal detector. Luckily the store person knew a bit about the detector they rent and would not rent it to Carolyn. The reason was it just was not sophisticated enough to detect such a small piece of metal especially in an environment that would have many metal objects in the area i.e. pull tabs, nails, pieces of fencing etc. An effort was put forth and proved the rental cost would not be justified by the known detector’s results.

Another suggestion by the employee was to contact “TheRingFinder”, in this case. me. The sun would have set by the time I could have been on site. So an 8AM meeting was set. Carolyn and a few others returned to the event area before the sun set and frantic looking all over the parking lot and areas that could be seen before the sun set, but did not find the pearl.

In the morning I, along with Carolyn, started by first looking through the car’s seats, floor, voids between the center console and seats, cup holders to mention the obvious. Nothing was found and a quick walk over the parking area and on down to the kids nature trail. This was straight forward from the place the loss was discovered going back along the path of the previous day’s activities. Even with my adjustments made to my detector of choice for this search, the search was hampered by the many bits and pieces of metal in the area I had to search over. I stopped to do a bit of control tweaking because I was now on wood chips and not gravel and I wanted to have the best setup to find the earring.

Up to this point I was following Carolyn pretty closely, and she got about 10 feet ahead, looking down and at her foot was the earring. The was the end of my searching the area. Carolyn said if it had not been for the store emplyee’s honesty as to the rental detector’s capabilities, my logical thinking and implementation of a methodical search “we” would not have found the earring. We both agreed it was “Meant To Be”.

With a happy Book of Smiles photo, pair of earrings, need to get back to her children, the hugs, Thanks, Best Wishes, and a weekend to remember ended is short order as we parted to go on with each of our own day’s agenda.
