*** Tyran was collecting sea glass and shells in the surf at a San Jaun Capistrano Beach when her diamond wedding rings slipped off her finger into the waves. It was just about sunset when it happened. It was very rough surf conditions right up next to breakwater rocks. The rings were not to be found that evening.
I got a call from her later after she found my information online. She was willing to meet me the next morning at the location. After reviewing the information she gave me and the tide conditions, I told her our best chances would be the later evening tide. Even though I wanted to go right away my past experience in this area proved to work out well.
I assured them that I didn’t need them to give me anymore directions as the photos she gave me were perfect to identify the location. They did have dinner reservations for that evening in another city.
I was able to locate the engagement ring after fighting with a rough surf. The smaller of the two rings probably moved down the slope because the back wash was crazy strong. I was surprised that this larger ring was recovered in these conditions. That’s why I will at least give it my best shot. When I met Tyran and Eddie later that evening they were very happy and grateful to have this ring back. They had told me in the beginning this was the most important ring of the two.

I got a call from Brad earlier this week about a small pendant that was lost in his yard a couple days prior. He was in Fairhope which is only about 20 miles away from me on Dauphin Island as the crow flies, but is over an hour drive because it’s “across the bay” as we like to say here. Because of the distance, we mutually agreed that an afternoon later in the week would work best for both of us.
The day finally arrived and I talked my hubby into a nice little afternoon drive. After running into an unmarked detour and a street that was so new it wasn’t on my car’s GPS, we finally found his house. After carefully listening to the details of how it was lost, we both sectioned off a portion of the yard and started gridding. Almost an hour later just as we were almost about to give up, I heard a shallow target with a promising tone on my Nox 800. I simultaneously looked down and there was the tiny 18K gold pendant with a stone nestled in the grass ! Yay !! I happily knocked on the door and dropped the little pendant into Brad’s hand. I always love the surprised look I get. Brad stepped out and quickly pulled a very generous monetary reward out of his pocket which, as always, I just as quickly turned down. Karma is always my best reward ! Brad declined my request for a picture of him, but he did let me take a picture of his two adorable little girls who looked very happy that Mommy and Daddy were happy.


This ring find began when I got a text from the Kahala Hotel and Resort Concierge asking if I was available for a guest’s lost ring recovery at the beach in the water. I responded that I was currently on a ring hunt and could be reached in about an hour and to give their guest my contact number. While driving home from that successful recovery I got a call from Sune who was visiting Oahu from Copenhagen, Denmark. As he was starting to swim the backstroke his Sentimental Silver Ring fell off in chest deep water. He borrowed a mask and snorkel but the water was too murky to see anything. I told Sune since it was getting late I’d get on the tide chart at my home computer and call him back for the best time to hunt the following morning. It so happened sunrise at 6:30 would be the beginning of a low tide and we agreed to meet in the hotel lobby. When I arrived Sune showed me the area he was in and it was perfectly calm water although the surf was breaking on the outer reef. Anyone who knows this beach it gets mucky in many spots and difficult to keep on a grid. I decided to start shallow and work deep parallel to the shore. I asked Sune if the depth I was at would be good and he said lets start a little bit shallower. So I did. I started the grid search and my first target was a nice high tone. I took a scoop and as the scoop broke the surface I had a wad of gray muck and green algae in the scoop. I got a glimpse of a silver shine and as I pulled the goop out of my scoop the silver ring was tangled in the algae. OMG! Had Sune not told me to go that little bit shallower I would have hunted for hours and not found it. These Kahala Beaches have played many tricks on me in the past and each time the ring had been found more shallow then expected. As you can imagine Sune was so grateful to have his sentimental ring back before he flies to Los Angeles this evening. Aloha to Sune!


This ring find began when I got a text from Jimmy who was on vacation from Vancouver BC Canada. The text said, ” I could use your services.” I immediately called and Jimmy told me while shaking out his towel he had forgotten he had put the ring there and it got flung out into the sand and disappeared. I told Jimmy I’d grab my gear and meet him in the parking lot of Makapuu Beach park. When I arrived 20 minutes later Jimmy took me down to the area the ring was lost. I could see in the sand where he had been raking his fingers in hopes of finding the ring. I fired up the Manticore and started a grid search. First target was a bottle cap. It sounded soooo good! Next target sounded even better and was a perfect dot on the 2D display. In one scoop there was Jimmy’s ring. I could see the look of relief on his face. He said, “Thank you for saving my vacation!” Aloha to Jimmy!

TheRingFinders metal detector service in San Diego helped find a buried purse full of sentimental & valuable items at Oceanside beach. WHO Ya gonna call? 760 889 2751
Over this summer I have helped many people find lost jewelry along with other items at the drop of a hat. From the cry’s of help to a matter of urgent timing of finding a lost diamond wedding ring before it gets found by a local hobbyist detecting….Or even worse…A sand sifting machine!
This call actually came in from a security guard during a Surf event who was trying to help a marine couple at the beach find a purse they buried before going out to the water. I live nearby the Oceanside pier so I dropped my hat and was there quickly.
First thing to my amazement was a large crater hole maybe 25X25’ they had dug & sifted through frantically for hours! I could definitely tell by that amount of work they really needed my help. We all have probably lost a wallet,Keys,phone,Ring but If you can only imagine losing everything important you have all at once! Then he says the most important item is his family heirloom Gold ring that was handed down.
So off I went swinging my metal detector around the outer perimeter of the crater then as soon as I made a lap and switched to the inner part I received a familiar large overloading signal …Sure enough it was it & I was able to save the night once again!
Sorry I did not ask for her to open/empty her purse for the standard photo shoot recovery due to privacy of other personal belongings.

I had the pleasure of helping out Joe Hess the other day. Joe and his family were down visiting Gulf Shores from their home in Indiana. Joe had been on the beach throwing football with his son when his wedding ring came flying off and quickly buried somewhere in the sand. Joe and his wife have been married 20 years so everyone began looking for it to no avail. With the tide rising in the afternoon they found me online and had me come over from Pensacola. My wife and I loaded up and quickly made our way over and met Joe on the beach. I started looking in the area he thought it was and quickly realized this was going to be a bigger search than Joe thought. My wonderful wife went to the car to get my biggest coil to cover more ground while I asked Joe more questions. Joe ended up telling me that he was using his left hand to throw the ball because his right was hurt and I worried that he may have flicked his hand awkwardly towards the water. I changed coils quickly and started a search where the water was coming in with the tide. I made one pass and as I got halfway back in the edge of the surf I heard a really deep tone. I took a huge scoop and drug it up on the sand to be safe. As soon as I broke open the sand with my hand I saw Joe’s gold band and turned around with a big smile. I’m so glad that Joe called quickly and we found it even quicker. That ring was too important to lose to that incoming tide. Congrats Joe!

*** Ashley’s friend called me called me after Ashley had her two rings washed off beach towel by a rouge wave. The friends were in Laguna Beach, CA. at Emerald Cove when the rings were lost in the sand. I was able to meet them soon after they called.
I couldn’t believe how this happened. This crazy wave came up just the one time, surprising everyone on the beach. Anyway they had a very good idea of where the two rings could be. I was looking forward to a quick recovery. The silver ring was easy but the gold ring didn’t show for about 15 minutes. It was actually buried in the sand next to a spray can of sun block. I didn’t take time to move the sunblock spay can until my second pass.
The rings were very sentimental to Ashley and it was a real treat to see the happiness of having the rings back in her possession. We also got the attention of all the beach goers as the beach was elbow to elbow with people. RingFinder to the rescue.

Wednesday evening, I got a call from a fellow ringfinder. He asked if I could handle a call for him. I said, of course! I called Charles and asked him where and when he lost it and set a time for us to meet before low tide the next day. I brought my friend Brian who is just getting into metal detecting.
Charles took us down to the beach and showed us the section of beach where he had lost the ring, but the tide was still high, and the wave action was much greater than we expected. Nevertheless, Brian and I started grid searching the area. I started about waist-high in the water. Brian started from the high tide line.
I had an obligation that I had to attend to, so I left the search area for a while. About an hour after that Brian had exhausted the search area. He decided to go back over some of the high tide out of the water area. His first target was iron. Next a solid hit on his Deus II. It was the ring. Great work Brian!
There was dancing on the beach as the happy couple recovered their precious ring.
