Needle in a Haystack in Hillsboro, Alabama… FOUND!

Alvintae “Kirk” texted me on Sunday afternoon (June 14, 2026) stating he lost a yellow gold pinky ring with an eagle (not quite a needle, but close, lol) while laying hay in his raised garden beds at his home in Hillsboro, Alabama.  Kirk recently lost some weight, and the ring was fitting him loosely.   This ring was very sentimental to Kirk because it was given to him by his late uncle about a year prior.  Our schedules didn’t line up until Friday, so we set up a search for that morning.

I made the very beautiful and peaceful 55-minute drive to Hillsboro on Friday morning.  After meeting Kirk, I had him walk me through the whole scenario and asked some clarifying questions.  Kirk really felt like his ring fell off into the first of four raised garden beds.  Unfortunately, the raised beds were made out of a thick galvanized steel that rang in around the gold range on my metal detector.  Even turning down the sensitivity didn’t get me as close as I wanted to the sides.  I also checked if I could discriminate out the metal (even though it was reading as non-ferrous) with my Nokta AccuPOINT pinpointer, but that didn’t work.

I asked Kirk to pull out the hay that was on top of the wood logs in the beds.  I would scan the hay piles with my Equinox Minelab 900 as he pulled it out.  Kirk got about ¾ of it out and I went back and scanned over the wood logs that were inside the beds, but I was still getting interference from the steel sides.  We decided to move the entire bed frame siding out of the way, so that I could get an accurate and unmasked reading.  We carefully moved the bed so that we didn’t damage a pretty plant that Kirk’s wife really likes.  As I was detecting over the back part of the remaining hay in the bed area, I received a good, repeatable 25-27 on my Nox.  I told Kirk that this was a very promising tone.  I walked over and took out my Garrett “carrot” pinpointer to narrow down the area.  I got the tone and gently brushed the hay away and there was that glimmer of gold-on-gold staring back at us!  We both let out some shouts of joy and immediately thanked the good Lord.  Kirk was so excited, relieved, and thankful that his uncle’s ring was found.

We took some photos and chatted for a few minutes before I was back on the road, headed home to Huntsville.  I’m truly blessed that I get to be a blessing to others.  Until the next one, please take care and God bless…

Losing a wedding band at the beach can turn a great day into a stressful one.

That is exactly what happened when Debbie called Ring Finders South Jersey for help.

 

Her son-in-law’s wedding band had disappeared into the sand. After searching without success, Debbie reached out for professional assistance.

I arrived at the beach within 20 minutes of Debbie’s call.

 

After gathering the details and identifying the search area, I began a systematic search.

 

Just a few swings of my metal detector produced a strong signal.

 

Moments later, the missing wedding band was safely back in hand.

 

Fast response times are often critical when searching for lost jewelry on South Jersey beaches. Wind, foot traffic, and changing beach conditions can make recovery more difficult as time passes.

Thankfully, this recovery was quick and successful.

Debbie later shared this review:

“Wonderful experience with The Ring Finders South Jersey. John arrived within the hour and took all of 30 seconds to find my son in law’s ring. Losing a wedding ring is a stressful process – John made this a quick fix. Thank you so much!”

Another wedding ring safely returned in Western Wisconsin!

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)
 I got a call from a gentleman who had just gotten home from vacation and realized his wedding ring was missing. He had lost a little weight recently, so the ring was fitting a bit loose. He wasn’t sure if it had slipped off while carrying things into the house or somewhere in his yard. He had a pretty small backyard, so I met up with him and started searching right away. I checked the yard and his car with no luck. He then mentioned he had been out on the deck the night before, grabbing logs for the fireplace. I searched the log pile and a box of sawdust and kindling. Using my pin-pointer, I got a signal at the bottom of the kindling box — and there it was, buried in the sawdust! He was genuinely surprised. He told me he had pretty much been going through the motions and didn’t expect it to be found. Seeing how happy he was to have his ring back made the search very worthwhile.
If you’ve lost a ring or other piece of jewelry in Western Wisconsin, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to help.

Gold Ring Lost in Anahiem, CA. Backyard Grass Found by Stan the Metal Detector Man

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 

Cloe needed he;p to find a lost ring in the backyard lawn, so she called me after finding me on a google seach. Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

*** Cloe called for my metal detecting service after she lost her gold ring in grass at a yard of where she was babysitting youngsters. She was very confident that the ring was in the backyard. The location was near the city of Anahiem, CA. which is30 or 40 minutes drive for me.

I met Cloe later that afternoon and she took me to the large backyard explaining that she had been playing kickball all over the lawn area. It would have been difficult to see a small gold ring visually as much of the grass was a brown/yellow color.

I grid searched the lawn area getting many metal signals which were too deep to check by finger searching the grass. This type search could take forever dropping to my knees to investigate every signal.  After swinging my detector over 3/4 of the lawn area, I got a strong surface signal and the ID numbers on my detector were close to gold numbers. As I stared into the dead brown/yellow grass I spotted Cole’s ring.

She was standing near so I called her over to see where it had been hiding. She was so happy and grateful to have her ring back where it belongs..

Lost Tungsten Wedding Band at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began as I was hunting the Aulani lagoon this morning, when a lady named Brenda, approached me and said, “My brother in law Ryan lost his gray Titanium ring right in this area.”  She was pointing in the area of the lagoon I had just gone through and found a gray Tungsten ring about ten minutes prior.  She asked if she could take a picture of the ring and send to him as he was off on an ABC store run.  Shortly there after she came back and said, “That’s the one!”  Often times people don’t remember the metal type of their rings.  A short time later Ryan and his lovely wife Linda arrived and the ring was a perfect fit.  Ryan told me he had been throwing a football when it came off but wasn’t exactly sure where it had fallen.  Vacation saved and back to San Francisco tomorrow with his ring on his finger.  Aloha to Ryan & Linda!

The very best metal detecting service in Florida is theringfinders.com! We can help you with all your metal detecting needs and lost item recovery needs as well. My name is Mike McInroe and I am here to help you in your time of need…so call or text me anytime at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk.

Steven was enjoying a warm beautiful summer day on Lake Fairview fishing and videoing some of his catches when he bumped his tripod and it tipped over…dropping his Iphone into the lake. His phone had 8 years of important information and pictures and he quickly thought of setting a pin or waypoint…is what a fisherman does to mark a specific spot on the water. And that action was very useful later on that week when Steven called me and explained what had happened. I met Steven and we sped out to “the” spot on the lake that was in about 7 feet deep water and I first thought of using my large Magnetar magnet but after an hour I decided to do a scuba dive. For scuba dives I use a perforated pvc rectangular frame that I sink to the bottom and it allows me to detect the bottom of the lake thoroughly one section at a time and it sets on the top of the silty or grassy bottom and I can detect the outer diameter and then the inside and can cover a 15 foot square area at a time. And when visibility is very very limited I am quite confident that I am not missing targets. It took a good hour and 15 minutes to cover at least 4 sections and on the fifth section I got a screaming signal that proved to be Steven’s lost cell phone! What a relief and stress were lifted off of Steven’s heart and mind and before I left for home I asked Steven if I could pray with him and I thanked God for His goodness and for leading me to find Steven’s lost cell phone.

What have you lost and how can I help you? We have metal detecting specialists all over the USA and Canada that are waiting to help you in your time of need. Call or text me ASAP and let’s talk!

t Ring Recovered on Cape May Beach, NJ by Ring Finders South Jersey

A relaxing day at the beach in Cape May, New Jersey, almost turned into a heartbreaking memory when Michael realized he had lost his wedding ring earlier in the day. After spending time searching the sand without success, he turned to Google for help and found RingFindersSouthJersey.com.

 

Michael immediately called me, John Favano of Ring Finders South Jersey, and explained the situation. During our conversation, I gathered important details about where he believed the ring had been lost, the activities he was doing at the time, and how long ago the loss occurred. This information is critical to maximizing the chances of a successful recovery.

 

Within 20 minutes of receiving Michael’s call, I was on the beach in Cape May with my professional metal detecting equipment and ready to begin the search. Time is often a key factor in beach recoveries, especially during the busy summer season when foot traffic, beach grooming, and changing sand conditions can make a lost ring even harder to locate.

 

Using the information Michael provided, I established a search grid and began a systematic sweep of the area. After only a short time, my metal detector produced a strong signal. A few scoops later, Michael’s ring appeared in the sand.

 

The relief and excitement on Michael’s face said it all. What started as a stressful day quickly turned into a successful recovery and a happy ending on the beaches of Cape May, NJ.

 

At Ring Finders South Jersey, I specialize in locating lost rings, jewelry, keys, phones, and other valuable items throughout Cape May County, Atlantic County, and the Jersey Shore.
