Lost Gold & Diamond Engagement Ring at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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



This ring find began when I got a frantic call from Samantha from Sydney, Australia. While she was playing with her child on the beach her Engagement ring at some point fell off. She was in a rather confined area but she wasn’t exactly sure when or where it exactly came off. I was at work but told her I’d have my wife Wendy bring my Excalibur II metal detector to my work then I’d be right over but it would be at least 45 minutes because its just over 30 miles away. Samantha assured me she’d wait on the beach until I arrived. My wife delivered the Excal in record time and I got on my way to the resort. Samantha met me on the beach and explained it was her 6th Anniversary and her husband who was in the US Navy was deployed. She was totally devastated that she had lost the ring. I told her I was very confident we would find her ring. I asked her to hold my pin-pointer until I had a target. I wanted her to regain her composure and helping me would do just that. First target in the sand was a bent piece of aluminum. As I was getting towards the center of the grid I got a real nice tone. I asked Samantha to hand me the pin-pointer so I wouldn’t knock the diamond off her ring. Surprisingly it was her ring and it was at least four inches into the sand. She must have stepped on it while looking for it. Tears of joy started streaming down her face and Samantha was obviously so shocked her ring was found so quickly. These are the best hunts. Quick & painless. Aloha to Samantha!

Lost engagement ring in Orlando, Fl….Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Jason called Thursday morning to see if I could help him find his wife’s lost engagement ring in some bushes at their apartment complex in Orlando! I asked a few pertinent questions to help determine where the rings might be hiding and if there was a good chance they could be found. Jason briefly explained what happened and mentioned that Amber, his wife, had actually lost both her wedding and engagement rings. And after a frantic search they were able to find the wedding ring but not the lost engagement ring! He went on to say that they contemplated renting a metal detector but then found theringfinders.com web site and decided to give me a call.
I reassured them that I would get there ASAP and that the chances were very good of finding her lost ring.
The actual area where the rings landed was small but full of various types of bushes, shrubs and decorative grassy types of plants. One of the grounds crew had actually used a leaf blower to try and remove some of the loose mulch to expose the lost ring, but may have actually blown the ring deeper into one of the bushes. I began my search along the sidewalk and investigated every possible signal using my Garrett pro pointer. I uncovered a variety of items and only 10 minutes into my search I got a great pull tab signal and brushing the leaves aside–there was Amber’s lost ring. I called the young couple over to see what I had found and it was a thrill to see their reactions and the smiles on their faces as Amber bent over and picked up her precious ring! It is always a great pleasure helping reunite a lost ring with it’s rightful owner!
Lost your ring? Call ASAP!

Lost gold pendant in St. Augustine, Fl…..Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Bill was taking his little nephew for a ride on a small four wheeler and as he stood up to get off he noticed his heavy gold chain was unlatched and his special “Road Runner” pendant was gone. This pendant was given to him by his late father 30 some years ago as a very special gift. Bill immediately started looking for it and spent hours searching thru the long grass and sandy areas where they had unloaded and ridden the four wheeler. A few days later they used a metal detector and tried and still were not able to find Bill’s lost pendant.
Not wanting to give up, Bill searched the internet and found theringfinders.com web site and gave me a call. I arrived in St. Augustine three hours later and began my search. If the pendant was there I was determined to find it. Bill’s wife Kerri had shown me the large area where the pendant was thought to have been lost, so I set out a few markers, said a short prayer and began swinging my DFX. Bill came an hour and a half later, just as it was getting dark and we talked and searched by the light of his cell phone. Another hour passed and then I got a great signal and there just under the dead grass was Bill’s 14k gold Roadrunner pendant! You talk about one happy young man!! And thanks allot Bill for the reward and I am so glad you gave me a call and that I was able to find your lost pendant.
Lost something of value and want to see if it can be found? Call or e-mail me–ASAP!

Lost wedding ring New Smyrna Beach, Florida…..found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Last November 3rd I wrote a short story about Shawn loosing a ring at New Smyrna Beach and how I was able to find it for him. Come to find out that his good friend Zack, lost his wedding ring that very same day, at the very same beach! Shawn, Zack and another close friend had taken a day off to relax and as they finished their lunch at the Breakers Restaurant they decided to throw the football around in the shallow part of the surf. (Does this story sound familiar?) The third friend decided to remove his wedding ring and leave it in the car, despite the lighthearted objections of Shawn and Zack. And guess who ends up loosing their rings?
So after returning Shawn’s ring to him that evening, I find out that Zack had lost his ring as well! That next day I was able to return to the beach and after a one hour grid search–a little to the north of where Shawn’s ring was found–up pops Zack’s wedding ring. Three guys at the beach and two of them loose their rings! What are the chances? And the best part of the whole story is–they both got them back! And I am still waiting for Zack to send me his photo–so in the meantime–my smiley face will have to do!
Lost your bling? Give me a ring!

Lost Platinum & Diamonds Wedding Band at Nai’a Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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



This ring find began while I was on a break from another ring find. Greg from California’s Central Valley was on the beach relaxing with his wife when he took his ring off and placed it on a towel. When they moved location Greg forgot about his ring and he assumed it fell off the towel and into the sand. He rented a metal detector but Aloha Security stopped him and told him to call “Joe” the only authorized resort detectorist. He said he wasn’t making much progress anyway. Greg was at the Dole Plantation tour and texted me some decent location data. I started my grid search but their were a few folks in the box. I explained what I was doing and I’d have to ask them to move at some point if I didn’t find the ring elsewhere. They all were very nice about it. After not finding Greg’s ring in the area he described I thought maybe when he picked up the towel the ring got flung farther away. It was so because a few more grid lines outside the box and I got a nice platinum tone and one scoop down was Greg’s stunning ring. The folks that were in the area were shocked that I found it and all wanted to see the ring up close. I then went back to my truck and texted Greg a pic. He called immediately and asked if he could drive over and pick it up in about 30 minutes. As you can see in the pic all came together again in this new year. Aloha to Greg.

Found Mans 40th Birthday Ring in Post Falls Idaho

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)
Contact:

Picture this, you turn 40 years old and your family gives you a beautiful ring to remember that day. As fast as that memory was created it was erased by the memory of the ring falling off and making that sound that only gold can make when it falls through the snow and hits the ground. After hours of digging and renting a metal detector this man named Alex became just as lost as his ring. He went home to shovel the new snow from that day and then had to tell his wife that he didn’t find it again. Just then, a friend told his wife about my post on Craigslist. Alex gave me a call,  the journey to the location took place, my Whites Spectra V3i coil passed over that ring, and I am now writing about another happy ending to a Ring Finders recovery.  Watch my shaky video for the excitement footage :

40th birthday gift

Lost White Gold Ring w/ Diamonds Found in the Snow in Beverly Hills Michigan

Ring-ing in the New Year……..

….can be a very joyous time and a very stressful one too!, as what happened to this couple last night.
He called me this morning saying he just bought this very pretty white gold and diamond ring for his significant other and when they were pulling into the driveway early new years day and got into the house it was missing and must have slipped off her finger somewhere in front of the house.
When I got on site I set up my MXT and searched the area which contained bushes and some kind of plant stalks as landscape. There was also a few snow piles around the search area as well. I didn’t find anything in the yard or neighbors yard so my intuition told me to walk the path the way they came from in the car so I walked out into the street and across the road was the ring sitting in a snow pile in plain view! I grabbed it up and asked her if it was hers and she screamed with excitement remembering having rolled down the window to adjust the side view mirror and that’s where it must have came off hitting the pavement and rolling into the snow!
Sorry for the blurry pics.
They were very pleased that I recovered it with no damage and were very thankful for the wonderful start to 2017!

Lost Platinum & Diamonds Engagement Ring at Outrigger Canoe Club Waikiki…FOUND!!!

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



This ring find began when I got a call from Ashlee who lives on Oahu. While she was standing in the shore break at Outrigger Canoe Club beach she was taking her ring off to put on her beach towel for safe keeping when it fell in the water and the next wave erased it from view. Slightly panicked Ashlee and her husband Greg tried searching for it but it was no where to be found. Ashlee went on line and looked for metal detecting service and that’s how she got my number. I was relaxing at home watching a football game but told Ashlee the game was a blow out so I’d pack my gear and come right down. Waikiki is only 10 minutes from my house but it seems like I hit every single red light and slow bus along the way. Ashlee had her husband Greg meet me in the parking garage which was nice as there is zero parking on the holidays. We walked down to the beach and Ashlee was standing in the water where her ring fell off. I started a grid around her location and down to the low tide mark but no ring. Seeing how tiny Ashlee’s fingers were and knowing it was a 1 carat diamond I suspected the first wave probably carried the ring up further onto the beach. Finally I got my first target and one scoop down there was Ashlee’s beautiful ring. My guess was right. Ashlee gave me a big hug and Greg a thankful hand shake. A few spectators on the beach told me congratulations and I thought what a great way to start the New Year. Aloha to Ashlee & Greg.

Lost Engagement Ring Found in North Spokane WA

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)
Contact:

Today this lady named Karen decided to follow a sign from God and take a leap of faith by contacting me from the information I had posted on Craigslist. Her ring was lost over the Christmas weekend.  However, Karen did not know where it was lost or the actual day it came off. Her dear friend was trying to help her by placing an ad on the Spokane Craigslist. I was watching the lost and found section while I was on vacation and saw her ring ad pop up on the top a few times. I was also re-posting my ring finders ad as well.  These two action created a spark of hope in Karen’s heart. She called me today with only the strength to get out the message that she left and say hello when I called back. Her tears made this Ring Finder head out in 2o degree weather with 2 feet of snow on the ground  to search for a ring that may not be there. So I dawned my detectives hat when I got there and started questioning her about everything that happened that weekend. There were three spots of interest . So after searching the front drive way where she got out of her car, the walk way to the stairs and the stairs. I headed to the back yard where she had thrown a few snow balls with both her left and right hands. To give you an idea of the snow conditions, I had two hands on my metal detector to be able to move it through the  new snow layer so I could be closer to the snow that had frozen last week. The ring was under a foot of snow. It rang up as a 17 and gave me the biggest thrill to date seeing the out line of her ring in the frozen snow. I got the signal and told her fiance John that this could be it and in fact it was. After showing John the ring and giving him a hug, Karen had come back outside and saw us hugging. I quickly moved to the porch to give her the ring but her week of looking for the ring came full circle and emotions almost brought her to her knees. This was a really good new years day for both Karen and my self. God is alive in Spokane, Washington you only need to have faith that His Promise will come true. Happy New Year Ring Finders Family.
