2 Yellow Gold Wedding Bands Lost, Found and Returned Garden City SC

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

April 27th, I received a text message saying, “If you could please call me, with a phone number. We lost two wedding bands.” I called the number and talked with Jessie who told me his mother; Tammy had lost her 2 Gold Wedding Bands. She had actually removed numerous rings from her fingers and had put them in the cup holder of her beach chair. When everybody packed up to leave, it was then Tammy realized her rings were still in the folded-up chair. But they weren’t.  They had all fallen out on their way off the beach. The family had searched and located all but the 2 gold wedding bands. Jessie and I agreed to meet at the beach location in less than an hour.

When I arrived at the beach, I had to call Jessie. The family was in the process of packing up and heading home from their vacation. Jessie soon showed up and showed me where the family had been sitting and their path off the beach. Jessie told me he had to finishing packing and if necessary, could I mail the rings to him if I found them. I assured him I would and started my grid search. After having no luck in their sitting area, I started working their pathway to the parking lot. Since Jessie told me he “thought” his mother’s rings were white gold, I was looking for single digit’s numbers on my Equinox 800. I finally hit a solid 13, which is a yellow gold number just off the end of the parking lot. I scooped up a small amount of sand and shook the sand out of the scoop. Bingo, 1 yellow gold thin wedding band in the scoop. I did another couple of swings with the detector and got another solid target. Another scoop of sand, I shook out the sand and had the second yellow gold band in the scoop. I sent Jessie a picture of both rings and called him. He showed the picture to his mom, and she confirmed those were the 2 rings. Jessie gave me the address they were at and I hand delivered both rings to Tammy. I caught them just before they pulled out of the driveway. Tammy was very happy.

Jessie – Thank you for calling and letting me help get your mom’s rings back to her. I wish you all a very safe trip home.

Lost Gold & Diamonds Custom Signet Ring at Kahanamoku Lagoon Waikiki…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call from Nai who lives on the North Shore of Oahu and was enjoying the day at Hilton Hawaiian Village Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon.  While carrying his baby daughter in waist deep water he noticed his wife Zhelle’s ring he had been wearing went missing.  He knew the exact area but the water was very murky where he was looking and he could not find it. I told Nai I would be there in about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic.  Thankfully, he had a spot reserved for me to park as it was totally packed.  When I arrived Nai & his lovely wife Zhelle met me in the parking lot and walked me over to the area to hunt.  I wasn’t 10 feet in and got a nice tone…darn it was a nickel.  I walked out to the end of the first grid line and turned around two steps and boom target screaming in the Manticore.  It took a few scoops to get the target in the scoop but when I finally did Wow, what a beautiful ring it was.  Nai and all their friends were so grateful and gave many thanks.  So happy to help!  Aloha to Nai & Zhelle!

Metal Detector Man can find Tungsten Rings Lost in the Sand

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Metal Detectors can find all types of metal call Stan the Metal Detector Man if you need information to help,find your lost metallic item.. Call or Text ..   Stan  .. 949-500-2136

*** Steve and his family, from Utah, were vacationing at a SoCal Beach when he lost his tungsten wedding ring. The loss happened when he was throwing a football. He did feel the ring come off his finger the moment it happened, which is always nice to know before going on a search. Often we get calls where the person thinks the ring was lost because they had been playing football. They only think that’s where it came off their finger.

Steve’s first question to me was, can a metal detector detect tungsten rings? I told him yes and proceeded to ask him to wait at the location. I would be there within 30 minutes to find his ring.

This time of year traffic and parking are not a problem. We met on the beach where Steve and his had still enjoying their day in the Southern California sunshine. I set up a grid search area of 40ft. x 40ft because heavy mens rings are subject to go much further than most people understand.

We were lucky to start on the best side of the grid layout which the recovery fast. It gets a little frustrating to search a large area and not find the item until you’re just about to run out of possible search area.

Steve was very appreciative and told me he had no idea that this type service existed. One of my goals is to inform the public that there are experienced metal detector professionals that can find lost sentimental items. It was my pleasure to meet Steve and to be available to help him.

Lost Yellow Gold Wedding Band at Waimanalo Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a text from Jake saying he lost his yellow Gold Wedding Band at Waimanalo Beach while playing football in the sand.  I had just arrived home from a doc’s appointment so I grabbed my gear and checked google maps.  32 minutes to the beach.  I texted Jake I was on the way.  They were on the beach just after exiting the beach access path.  Jake drew a grid in the sand and it was huge.  I asked if he could narrow it down a bit to the most probable area.  What a relief.  I started down the first leg of the grid.  No targets.  As I turned to start the next leg I got a booming tone on the beast.  One scoop ring found!  Elapsed time under a minute.  Cheers rang out from Jake’s friends and family.  It’s not always this easy.  Aloha to Jake.  Out of the dog house!

*** I was parked at Newport Beach pier eating lunch in my car, when I received a call from Hau. His wife had dropped her Platinum wedding band in the sand at Balboa Beach two miles away from where I was parked.

He told me they had been searching the sand for almost two hours with no success. I always have my detector in my car, so I could meet them in 15 minutes.  I didn’t need to ask very many questions after they said it was in a small area where they were sitting.

I  drove directly to a parking space less than 25 yards from where they waited for me. It was another quick recovery, probably less than 10 minutes after turning on my metal detector.

They were very happy to have the ring recovered. Hau said, he was impressed at how fast I was able to get to his location. It’s not always like that, in the summer it can take as long as an hour just to find a parking place.

The Cross in the Sand Brigantine NJ

Juan had been looking forward to his weekend at Brigantine Beach for weeks. The sun was high, the ocean breeze perfect, and the wide stretch of sand made for the ultimate soccer field. With friends visiting from out of town, he kicked off his sandals and joined a fast-paced game near the dunes, laughter and shouts blending with the rhythm of the crashing waves.

But after a slide tackle into the soft sand, Juan sat up with a sinking feeling. He reached for his chest instinctively—his gold cross was gone.

The game came to a stop as everyone joined in the search, scanning the golden grains around the makeshift soccer area. Minutes stretched into an hour. Juan’s heart ached; he had worn that cross every day since he was young. It wasn’t about the gold—it was what it represented.

Defeated, with the joy of the day slipping away. That’s when someone nearby mentioned Ring Finders South Jersey—that John specialized in finding lost items on the beach using metal detectors. With nothing to lose, Juan made the call.

Within the hour, John with his metal detector in hand. Juan showed him the general area, and the search began. The beeping of the detector was like a heartbeat of hope.

Forty-five minutes later, the cross was found in the sand in Brigantine, NJ.

Lost family heirloom diamond earring found in Hendersonville, TN

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

Client Justin reached out to me on 04-22-2025 regarding a lost family heirloom. He explained that his wife was wearing the diamond and silver earrings that she inherited from her now-deceased aunt, and one of them came off as they were walking home from a nearby neighbor’s Easter party in Hendersonville, TN. They were able to find the backing to the earring as well as the outer ring with tiny little diamonds, but could not find the much larger center diamond that was affixed to the sterling silver post. Justin said everyone from the party even came over to the grass covered curb strip and got on their hands and knees to help search, but they couldn’t find the earring. Justin and his wife said I was their last hope in finding the very special earring that had so much sentimental value. No pressure there, but I was ready for the challenge. Justin had the matching earring for me to swing my coil over and see what the target ID came up as, but honestly it was not a strong repeatable signal. Underground power lines may have caused some interference. I did forget to start my stop watch, but after about fifteen to twenty minutes I got the signal I was hoping for. The Bermuda grass on the curb strip had that earring hidden quite well, with the tip of the post pointing straight up and the diamond resting on the soil. Justin and his wife were elated to have the earring back, and said they were going to get screw on backings before the earrings can be worn again. It was a happy ending to the story of the lost diamond earring, and I’m honored to have a roll in the story.

Lost platinum wedding ring lost in Brentwood, TN found with metal detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by a client, we’ll call him “Mr. Charles,” on 04-21-2025 at about 9:30 in the morning regarding a lost ring. I met with Mr. Charles at his beautiful Brentwood, TN home less than an hour later. He had lost his platinum wedding band in his back yard while working on a project. Although the back yard was quite expansive, he was able to narrow the search area because he remembered the areas he had been and just as importantly, where he hadn’t been. I started the stop watch function on my phone and began the search. In just under forty minutes I got the audible signal on my metal detector. The ring was completely concealed in the lush green grass, but there was no hiding from my “magic beep stick.” Mr. Charles only agreed to having his picture taken if I made him unrecognizable, hence then smiley face emoji.

Lost Cell Phone Found in Valencia

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Lost Your Ring, Keys, or Phone in Valencia, Newhall, or Santa Clarita? Call Dave The Ring Finder!
This afternoon, I connected with Ryan, whose son lost his cell phone after a fun family day at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia. They had pulled over on their way home to stretch, somewhere near Newhall or Santa Clarita, but Ryan wasn’t sure of the exact spot. With Ryan now three hours away, I headed out to search without my metal detector—just using my eyes and determination.
The area near Santa Clarita was large, and the kids had been running around, so I began gridding the site.

After several passes, it was clear the phone wasn’t where Ryan thought. Thinking it might have been placed on the car and fallen off, I searched along the roadside. Sure enough, just three feet from traffic in the Santa Clarita dirt, I found the phone! A bit dusty but fully functional, it was lucky no one ran it over.
Since Ryan was out of town, I mailed the phone back from a local Valencia post office. As any parent knows, kids need their phones!
