Wedding Band Recovered on Beach & Returned, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

Ryan did the right thing when he removed his 3-month old wedding band before he waded in.  The cooling fall water can shrink a finger and make it easy for a ring to slip off.  He left the ring in his hat in the dry sand on the beach, enjoyed the  water, and spent a nice afternoon lounging in the sun with his new bride on this beautiful fall day.  Only when they were ready to leave after several hours did they realize that his ring was no longer in his hat and was nowhere to be found.  They searched on hands and knees through the soft dry sand, but this proved to be fruitless, as is almost always the case in such circumstances.

They did an online search which turned up my RingFinders site, and when I received their call I was able to meet them within about 15 minutes and head to the location where the ring was lost.  It was nearing sunset, but Ryan had a good idea of where the ring should be, and I had to search for only a few minutes before I able to locate it.  I snapped a few pictures and we shared some happy conversation as the sun set.  Another good day for the RingFinders!

Ryan’s like-new wedding band.

 

A happy reunion.

Lost Rose Gold Wedding Band at Malaekahana Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began Thursday while I was in Everett, Washington for work.  Scott from the Bay Area in San Fran texted me that he lost his Rose Gold Wedding Band at Malaekahana Beach while throwing a football with friends along the shoreline.  I told him I would be returning Friday afternoon and I could hunt for him then.  It turns out Saturday morning worked out better for the both of us so we agreed on 7am.  When we met up the gate to the beach was locked so we went and parked along the road and Scott and his friend took me to the area on the beach where he lost the ring.  After drawing the extreme ends of the grid for me I asked Scott what time he lost the ring and it turned out to be the extreme high tide so the ring could certainly be in the dry sand now.  I started up high parallel  to shore and worked towards the water.  First target was a screaming #65 on the Manticore and on the second scoop there was Scott’s Rose Gold Wedding Ring in the scoop.  I was actually quite amazed myself because the elapsed time was less then a minute.  I shouted over to Scott who looked very amazed himself that I had found his ring so quickly.  Some of his friends told him I probably wouldn’t find it so the hope was probably low.  A few hugs and handshakes and well wishes and for sure Scott wouldn’t be in the dog house.  Aloha to Scott!

Tasha contacted me about 8:00 in the evening telling me about a necklace she lost while coaching soccer in her local park. It had come off sometime during the session, but she did not know where. I asked her to send a picture of the park with the area she had been in, so I would know how to proceed, because she was not going to be able to meet me there. It seems she had been over most of the field, so I knew there would be a lot of turf to search. I also said that I would do the search that night in order to not let too much time go by.

When I got to the park, and saw the size I knew this would be a time consuming search. As I walked out to the search area, I could see that half of the field was being watered, so I began on the other side. It turned out to be a slow grueling process because of the loads of metal trash in the grass from years and years of soccer games with lots of tin foil and aluminum. I just kept to my plan and slowly made a tight grid in the dark, so as to not miss anything. The trash metal in the grass slowed me down considerably, so much so, that I later looked at my watch, and noticed it was now 11:30 PM, and I had only completed half of the field. I sent Tasha a text letting her know I would have to leave for the night, but would return to complete the search.

I got back the next day just after the sun had gone down because it had been scorching hot that day, and I did not think I would last very long out in the heat. I sent her a text to let her know I was there to complete the search. I began where I had left off the day before continuing my tight grid pass after pass having to stop every couple of feet to check the signal just like the day before. I searched for another 2 hours, and then got another good signal to search, put the pin pointer in, and there it was; I was excited! I took the picture that is on this page, and sent it to Tasha, and she replied with intense joy and disbelief. I don’t think she thought she would ever see it again. Well she let me know her husband Jim was coming to get it for her, and when he arrived he told me what it meant to her. Those charms represented each of their children, and she kept them close to her all the time. This was surely a feel good recovery!

*** I received a text form Veronica asking for help to find a gold and diamond wedding ring. She had been out on the lounge chairs by the pool sunning herself. Took off her ring off in order to  put on sunscreen. The diamon ring slipped from her grasp falling onto the wooden deck. It found its way trough the slits between the deck boards falling  under the deck.

Half the underside of the wooden deck was cement. The other half was on a  hillside with a lot of dry grass and weeds. Before calling me they had already removed a couple planks to determine the ring was not  on the cement. So I came prepared to search a brushy grass covered hillside.

I guess I could have asked Veronica to send me a photo of the search area to be prepared, but i didn’t. I relly don’t ask enough questions, I feel it is more important to get on the road and get the job done..

When I arrived at the location ,she showed me where she had been when she dropped the ring. Access to  the hillside was much easier than I expected. on other searches I’ve had to maneuver around or over fences or walls. I did have to avoid a  couple dog droppings. Other than that,the search went fairly easy with the Garrett handheld  pinpointer being  the proper tool to find beautiful ring that was hiding right up against a concrete footing in the dirt with dead grass.

Veronica was very excited and happy to have her ring back. It  could have been a lengthy search if the  ring bounced another  foot in the other direction.  It’s all part of being a ring finder. You never know what you are going to run into on the next search..

Gold Bracelet Lost in Sandy Volleyball Court .. San Onofre State Beach, CA.

*** Jordan found my contact online two hours after losing a gold bracelet in playing volleyball in the sand. She was at San Onofre State Beach, San Clement, CA.  She said she would stay there till I arrived.

I met her on the beach within a hour.

She and her sister have the same bracelet which she was able to show me before I began the search. It was quite big and should have been easy to find without a detector.  After a short time I was able to find the gold bracelet. It was hiding under the volleyball boundary lines which is about an inch and a half wide.

She was definitely relieved as everybody in her party was confused that such a large piece of jewelry could not been found after they searched for a couple hours with a dozen people before asking for professional help.

It always feels good to come in and be successful.. To be truthful, sometimes it’s just not there.

Man’s Wedding Band Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Holden Beach NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)

This adventure started when I saw a FB post on the Holden Beach FB Group page stating the author Susie’s nephew had lost his wedding ring while playing catch on the beach. I commented on the post saying, “Call me if I can help” along with a link to my Blog in TheRingFinders.com web page. I also sent her pm with the same information. A short time later Susie responded to my pm and we went back and forth with questions and answers. At the end, I told her I was on my way and gave her my eta.

I arrived shortly before 830 pm and messaged Susie saying, “I’m here.” I met Susie’s nephew, Bailey in the driveway and we walked out on the beach. By now it was getting dark, but Bailey was able to show me the suspected area where he had been playing catch. He said that he and his brother had been playing catch and at some point, his ring slipped off his finger. Luckily, he caught it and put it back on his finger. He then said when they were finished playing catch; he went back to where the family was sitting and joined them. The suspected area wasn’t huge, but it was big enough and it was pitch black by then. After 2 hours of doing grid searches in both the suspected area and where the family had been sitting by headlamp, I wasn’t having any luck. I called it a night, thinking I’d be back the following day with a much larger and expanded search area. I didn’t convey my plan to Bailey when we said goodbye. I had a few things I needed to get done the next day and I wanted to make sure I wasn’t making a promise I couldn’t keep.

Today, Thursday everything had worked out and I let Susie know by messenger that I was coming back up, which she agreed to. Then I called my good friend, Burwin and told him what was going on and asked if he wanted to come along. He quickly agreed, which he always does when I ask. We got there shortly after 5 pm and I showed Burwin the 2 areas. I took the Family gathering spot and Burwin started a grid search in the suspected area. While I’m working my area, Burwin was expanding his grid search across the top of the beach along the high tide line. Burwin then started working an east/west gird search down the sloop towards the oceans, which was about mid tide by then. A short time later, I look to see where Burwin was and I see him raising his arm, which only meant one thing – He Found It! Where he found it was completely on the opposite side of the suspected area of the beach. I knew Bailey, Susie and the rest of the family were at dinner, so I took a picture of the ring and sent it to them. Within a couple of minutes, I got a message from Susie saying “OMG!!!!! They are so happy!!!!” I responded that I was leaving the ring under a shell on a table on the back porch. Another happy ending and a vacation saved.

Burwin – Thanks Buddy!! I appreciate you and all your help!

Bailey – Thanks for trusting us to help get your ring back where it belongs.

*** Bridget was standing on her patio balcony when she threw some loose leaves over the side. Her wedding ring came off at  the same time going into the ivy ground cover.

Her friends rented a metal detector to help her find the ring. A half day later they gave up and called me. The residence was located just 4 or 5 miles from my home. So I was able to be  mmthere soon after the call.

The search area was medium thick ivy. Did start to clear the grassy are first because it’s a quicker scan process and some people don’t realize how far rings can go, especially on a downhill trajectory.

I went to the ivy next which they had pretty much tore up while doing their search.

The ring showed up only 5 feet off the edge of the balcony at the edge of the ivy and dirt/gravel walkway.. Search time, less than an hour. It could have been faster if I started from the balcony over the ivy and out to the grass.  Happiness for all even the friends that had searched so diligently.

Thanks for reading this . Be sure to let your friends know this service exists..Call for help, even if it’s to ask questions about searching for a lost item.. I WILL TRY ANYWHERE.Stan the Metal Detector Man  949-500-2136..also a member of TheRingFinders

Dennis Port, MA Heirloom Ring Lost, Found and Saved the Vacation

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

September 10, 2024

Vacation time on Cape Cod has almost come to an end. Now it was time for a local to leave far a vacation thru Spain with a 15 mile a day hike itinerary. That is Chris’ plan but first she had to find a family heirloom ring. She had looked “everywhere” with no luck in finding the ring and new it was time to reach out for help. One town official gave her the name of the local dealer of metal detectors, J&E Enterprise. Due to the urgency of finding the ring before the air flight to Spain left, my number was given to Chris. One call for help, a few minutes to determine if I could help and I was on my way to start a search.

I arrived even before Chris showed up. After I had my gear ready Chris pointed out the area where the ring might have been lost, and we reviewed the previous day’s activities. While I started my search Chris, with a few suggestions from me, went inside to do a search of her own.

I started in the outdoor shower with a pin-pointer and a detector that could “see” through the floor boards. Nothing rang out, I moved to the path to and the bird feeding area. Again, nothing. That is when Chris came out to show me the ring I had been searching for. It had come off of her finger the previous night as she packed for the trip. At this point we both were thrilled, Chris because she had the ring back on her finger and myself because I would not have to tell her that the ring is not in the areas you have told me about. There is nothing worse that having to tell a person “I did not find the object”.

This type of search has happened more than once. It is related to the fact that one feels that the “missing” object is right “here” when in reality it is over “there”. The “here” is where the object was noticed that it was missing, not where it was really lost. That is why I ask a series of questions before a search begins, just to determine the entire area that may be involved with the loss. An average metal detector is useless inside a house due to the amount of metal, electronic appliances, house wiring, and plumbing also creates a problem. A pin-pointer or a detector with notch filtering may be helpful in certain areas such as an attic.

Another terrific outcome for the day. I am sure the trip will be very special and more enjoyable that Chris will not have been wondering about the ring, at least until she had unpacked.

Lost Gold Chain with Pendant Laguna Beach, CA.. Searched for using a Mobile Metal Detecting Service

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 

My latest recovery .. If you need help finding anything that can detected with a metal detector. Call Stan the Metal Detector Man now.. 24/7 .. 949-500-2136

..  Marshal texted me about a gold chain with a small gold pendant lost in the sand at Laguna Beach, CA.  He had taken the necklace was set on his towel while he and his girlfriend, Rebecca went swimming.

When they left the beach he picked up the towel and headed to his vehicle. He did return to search the sand without success .

The next morning Marshal called me asking if I could meet Rebecca at the location. When I arrived at the location there was a large tractor with a plow-like rake dragging the beach to remove seaweed washed up on the beach that last high tide. Following the tractor was another sifting machine working the same sand.

I was at the site and it did not look like my chances of finding the lost items were worth even trying a search. I explained the situation to Rebecca and proceeded to do a grid search over the area, expanding the search zone 50 to 60 yards.

I did find a small gold pendant that did turn out to be the missing pendant. The gold chain was never recovered. I knew it could be anywhere on the whole main beach. I spent more than 4 hours trying to understand how far away the chain got moved. It just didn’t show.

Marshal was happy to have the pendant back, because it was a gift from his mother.
