Lost Platinum & Diamonds Wedding Ring at Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon…FOUND!!!

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

This ring hunt began when I got a text from Keli asking, “Can you possibly help us? My husband lost his wedding band?” I immediately called and told Keli who was on vacation from Bowie, Maryland, that I would grab my gear and head down as I’m only 10 minutes away from the Hilton Hawaiian Village.  Thankfully,  when I arrived there was a free parking stall.  Keli met me at the Shrimp truck and then took me to meet her husband Jason so he could narrow down the search area.  Jason assured me he was only waist deep when he caught the football which knocked his Platinum & Diamond wedding ring off and he watched it disappear into the murky lagoon.  The first grid we made only yielded some trash & coin targets.  Keli really thought they were more to the west so I extended that direction and no luck still.  Jason and Keli asked if I could do a few more grid lines to the west towards a gentleman on the beach.  I was on what was going to be the final leg when “BOOM” nice 37-54 target on the Manticore and in one scoop there was Jason’s awesome ring in the scoop.  Several cheers rang out on the beach as I reunited Jason with his ring.  We had a few laughs and hugs and it was obvioud there vacation was going to be just fine.  Aloha to Jason & Keli!

Michael called to see if I could help him find some buried stakes in his back yard. He had recently purchased his home, and was in the back yard with his girlfriend when she stepped on an old rusted stake that had been cut off just under the surface, rather than dug out, and it cut her foot up pretty bad. I let him know I could do the search, and we arranged a day for it.

I got to Michael’s house, and he lead me to where the first stake was found. It was partially dug up, and I reached to feel it, realizing it was as sharp as a razor. It was an old rusted fence stake that must have been hammered at least three feet into the ground. I realized that instead of digging them out the previous owner figured it would be much easier to just grind them off. Michael did not know if there were any more, but desperately wanted to know for the safety of anyone coming into his yard. After the search was complete, I had found 6 more dangerously sharp stakes to be removed. Needless to say, Michael was very relieved to know he could free his yard of these harmful objects.

Man’s Tungsten Wedding Band Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

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

On Saturday, June 15th at about 1:45 pm, I received a text message from Haley saying, “Hey I was wondering if you could help me. My husband lost his wedding band at Myrtle Beach while we were there. We know around what place he lost it on the beach, but we don’t have a metal detector and are actually home from vacation now.” I asked her to call me so I could get the details of when, where and how. During the phone call she told me the hotel they were staying at, the day it was lost and that it was lost in the dry sand. She was one of five calls I had for the day, but number two on the list due to the location. After a successful recovery and return in Wrightsville Beach NC I headed 80 plus miles to the address she gave me in Myrtle Beach, SC. She had also sent me a few pictures of the hotel. When I arrived, I started a grid search from the south end of the hotel working my way north. About halfway through the search I called her to verify about where behind the hotel they were sitting. She told me they were closer to the north end, which was good because I hadn’t gotten that far yet. Unfortunately, there was a lot of trash, coins and junk in the dry sand that took up a lot of extra time digging. Finally, I got a solid 10 VDI (visual display indication) on the Nox 800. Lower than what I expected for a tungsten ring but possible depending on the size of the ring. I dug the shallow target and bingo! I checked the engraving, both on the inside and outside and had a match from what Haley had told me. I took a quick picture and text it to her. She responded almost immediately saying “That’s it.” She called me and I got her address and told her I stick it in the mail Monday.

Fast forward to Thursday June 20th and I got notification through tracking that the ring was delivered to the PO Box. I text Haley and she was going to check and see if it showed up. She responded that she had gotten a yellow slip in the box, but she’d have to wait until the next day to pick it up. Today, Friday, she text me saying “I got the ring, and I will get a picture of me and Jake with it whenever he gets home from work.” A few hours later, I got a great picture of the happy couple holding Jacob’s ring.

Haley and Jacob – Thank you for trusting me to help find and return you precious treasure. Take care of each other!

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

… Victoria lost a very sentimental gold ring in the sand at the original muscle beach workout area, which is located just south of the Santa Monica Pier.

Her friend had been holding the gold ring while Victoria was working out on the bars. After handing the ring back to Victoria, she slipped the ring onto one of her smaller fingers.

A half hour later as the two of them went to get on their bikes. She realized her most important ring was missing. It a gold ring that was her father’s. He  had given Victoria before he passed several years ago.

Even though it was lost the day before in a heavily detected area of the beach, I told her I would give it a try. The least I could do is thoroughly search the area to tell her it is not there.

I was able to eliminate all the areas under the bars, rings, swings and rope climb. I saved the 60-75ft path from the swings to the bicycle parking space. Boom ! .. The very special sentimental gold ring that was the only physical item that Victoria had to remember her father.

If you need help finding an important lost metal item, don’t waste time trying to learn how to operate a borrowed or rented metal detector.. Call an Experienced Metal detecting specialist.. Stan 949-500-2136  .. “I WILL TRY ANYWHERE “

Property Markers Found with a metal detector in Sanford, Florida!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

A friend of mine was needing to locate some property markers/pins and asked if I could have a look with my metal detector to verify the exact locations of each pin. He and a friend had measured out where they thought they should be and on three of the pins they were fairly close. I started out at the front of the property and set my metal detector to the “All Metal” mode and along the sidewalk I found each pin just off of the cement and only a few inches under the grass. Then I went to the back of the property and found the third pin right up against an AT+T box. And the final pin was in a corner of the property that was near the corner post of the neighbors chain link fence and a city light pole. I scanned the area and found a few large rusty nails and took my small shovel and cleared a four foot square area down six inches and still no pin. I scanned again and was not able to detect anything iron so I cleared more dirt down another six inches thinking maybe some fill dirt had been added to the corner of the property and still nothing. I swung my ATMax metal detector wider around the cleared area and got a strong signal and I finally located the rebar stake with the surveyors plastic yellow cap…but the stake was laying flat under four inches of dirt as if someone had pulled it up or mistakenly had dug it up when putting in the large wooden light/utility pole or possibly when the neighbor put in his fence corner post.

Are you trying to locate something metallic and need help?

Man’s White Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Surf, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

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

About 7:30pm on June19th I got a text message from Matt saying “Hi, I saw a post on the internet about finding lost rings on the beach? Not sure if I’m even reaching out to the correct person.” I called the number associated with the text and spoke to Matt. He told me that he was playing in the sand with the kids pretty close to the water line. When they left the beach, he noticed his wedding band was gone. He told me this happened sometime between one and three pm. Low tide for the day was 11:59am, so basically, he was right at low tide. We made arrangements to meet today, June 20th at 11 am. This would give me time to work the outgoing tide that was at 12:45pm.

We met at his resort at 11am and walked out on the beach. He pointed to the suspected area, and wouldn’t you know it, there’s a family of about 6 sitting right on top of where I needed to search. I started my grid search perpendicular to the beach and passed just to the north of the family. On my return line I stopped short of the family and made my turn. I hit an iffy target that I tried digging out of the hole. The signal wasn’t what I expected, and I couldn’t get it out of the hole. So, I left it alone for the time being. I turned around for my next line and noticed the family had moved further up the beach, I figure Matt said something to them, which was nice that they moved. About halfway back, I hit the signal again which wasn’t any better, but I was determined to get it out of the hole. About 3 scoops of wet sand and I had it out of the hole. I dumped the sand out on the beach, ran the coil over it and boom. Got the signal I was looking for. I spread the sand out with my foot and then used my fingers to move the sand. Saw it peeking out and picked it up. I washed it off and handed it to Matt. Matt’s wife Janet had been watching from their spot on the beach and quickly made her way to where we were. Matt and Janet were greatly relieved that Matt’s ring had been found. Vacation Saved!!!

Matt/Janet – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. Enjoy the rest of your vacation and have a safe trip back home.

Yellow Gold with Diamond Engagement Ring Lost Day after Proposal, Found and Returned Surfside Beach SC

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

About 4:30 pm on June 18th, I received a call from Caiden saying his fiancé had lost her engagement ring in the dry sand and asked if I could help. I got the address and was on my way. When I arrived, Caiden was waiting in the parking lot. We made our way out to the beach and out to the spot of the suspected ring lost. On the way-out Caiden told me he proposed to Savannah the night before. I got to meet Savannah, whose ring was the one that was lost. I was shown the area and then told that Savannah and Caiden had walked on a diagonal path up towards the dunes looking for shells. I searched the area where Savannah had been sitting and around the area where she shook out her towel with no success. We talked about the path they took, and I got both of their perspectives of where they walked. I started a diagonal grid search going from where they were sitting to where the beach access was from their condo. The ring was loose on Savannah’s finger, and she remembered it was on her finger where she was sitting. When she reached down to pick up a shell on their walk the ring was gone. It wasn’t a huge area to search but it was big enough. It took me awhile but when I was on my way back to their sitting area, I got a solid 10 on the NOX VDI (Visual Display Indicator). For a woman’s yellow gold ring, I was expecting a number closer to 13 or 14, but it all depends on the size and width of the ring. I dug the target and there it was. I decided to make a video and surprise Savannah and Caiden.

Caiden and Savannah – thank you for trusting me to help find your treasure.

Roger lost his car key at the beach. After a futile attempt to find it, he found me on theringfinders.com web site, and asked if I could help. Well it was just that morning the key was lost, so I told him I would come right away, in order to increase the possibility of a recovery.

When I got to the beach Roger told me he had buried the key, so he could go in the water, and not have to worry someone might take it. The problem occurred when after being in the water, he came out grabbed his towel, and headed for his car. When he got there, it was then he realized that the key was still in the sand. I set up my equipment, and began my search. I made sure to cover all of the area Roger had pointed out to me, plus going further to be sure I did not miss it. After about 15 passes in my grid, having found numerous pieces of trash metal, I found the key, and held it up for Roger. He was happy to have it back so he could head off for work. So I really made his day.

Lost a ring?

Call Now!

While enjoying the bonfire on the beach in North Wildwood, NJ, Anthony lost his hearing aid in the sand. Upon receiving a call for assistance, I promptly arrived at the scene. After gathering some details about the incident, I began my search with the help of my metal detector.

Despite an hour and a half of meticulous searching, success eluded me. I decided it would be best to resume the search after the bonfire was over and the area was clear. Upon my return, I expanded the search perimeter and digging out several other targets.

Finally, after countless swings of my metal detector and a few hours of dedicated searching, I found the missing hearing aid! I immediately called Valerie to relay the good news. Al soon met me at the scene, and I handed over the hearing aid.

The day concluded on a happy note, transforming a potential disaster into a joyful ending.
