Two sentimental rings lost in Berkeley park…Found!!!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)

Bay Area Ring Finders: Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

It’s nice to know that people care.  When Lydia lost two very sentimental rings given to her by her sister, she told me that at least 10 individuals assisted her in trying to locate them.  The rings were loose fitting and came off when she softly tossed a ball in the park, surely they shouldn’t have traveled far.  At last, the search was called off and Lydia was focused on an alternative solution.

She set out to rent or buy a metal detector, but couldn’t find a local source for quick deployment.  That’s when she stumbled upon my information in association with THERINGFINDERS.  The following morning I received a text message asking if I had availability to come to Berkeley to locate a missing ring.  I quickly called to let her know I could be available anytime after 3:30pm and would gladly come recover the ring.  That’s when I learned it was actually 2 missing rings. She let me know that the search area would be small and she knew pretty well where she was when they came off.  She would be right!

I arrived a bit after 4pm ready for a hunt. Lydia was waiting in the park along with her infant son, a young nephew, her mother, and a dog (or two).  She showed me the area and even performed a sample toss of the ball.  As I got underway, the first thing I noticed was that the park was noisy, that is, there was an abundance of metallic objects in the ground.  Then, boom…a perfect gold signal!  The problem was, the beautiful heavy gold earring that was recovered did not belong to Lydia (someone didn’t find THERINGFINDERS). A few minutes later, another really great signal!  This time I knew without a doubt it was the first of two rings and the second would be close at hand. Meer moments later, I was handing both rings back to a very relieved and grateful owner.  We had made the recovery!

Remembering what I said above, it’s nice to know that people care… As I collected my equipment ready to leave, an older gentleman walked up with an very vintage Bounty Hunter Coin Master detector.  Lydia seemed to know him and he may have been in the park helping the day before.  He commented about my Equinox and congratulated us on the recovery of the two rings.  He then set off to explore the area with his machine.  I assisted with a Garrett Pin-pointer and he produced a penny that we provided to Lydia’s nephew as “buried treasure.”  I was glad to have met Lydia and to have played a roll in the story of these two sentimental rings.

Mrs Rosa was sitting in the large screened in porch/pool area of her daughters home and she was brushing dog hair from the sleeve of her sweater when all of a sudden her diamond ring flew off of her finger and she heard it hit something and then it completely disappeared. She tried searching the best she could but at 82 years of age it was just a bit hard to look under all the outdoor furniture and other tight spaces. Her daughter even helped look as well and after a thorough search they decided to call someone for help. Later that afternoon I met Mrs Rosa and after a 10 minute search I was able to find her lost ring behind one of the wheels of the grill.

Lost Gold Wedding Band Recovered in Homeland Baltimore, Maryland!

  • from Baltimore (Maryland, United States)
Contact:

I received a text message 2 days ago from Nick who lost his wedding band while gardening a few days prior. Not only was Nick confident that he lost it in his yard, he informed me that there were certain areas of the yard that he was concentrated in. We made plans to meet the very next day.

When I arrived, Nick greeted me and immediately showed me around his yard and where he felt were the highest probability areas. He then excused himself and went back inside his residence and I got to work, starting with the first high probability area. The good news is not only was I able to locate the ring, I set a new personal record of less than 2 minutes doing so! Keep in mind that this record was set not only due to my detecting skill, but to Nick’s guidance and recollection of where he was when he first realized the ring was no longer on his finger. The ring was only about 1/2″ below the surface of the recently disrupted soil, but that was deep enough to hide it completely from sight. As a side note, this is a perfect example as to why I do NOT charge an hourly rate for my service! With that said, I’ve recovered rings in the past that have taken may hours to locate, with the extreme being 3 location returns over a week period with a total of about 10 hours of searching! As you can see, working on a reward type basis makes sense for both parties involved. I digress! The good news is the ring that Nick’s grandfather gave him is now safely back where it belongs!!

Sydney called me to ask for help locating her lost wedding ring in her yard. Apparently she had taken her little one outside and let him walk in the grass and as he toddled around Sydney would allow him to hold on to her hands to steady himself and a half hour later she realized that her wedding ring was no longer on her finger. She frantically searched her yard hoping to find it and later thought about using a metal detector and that led her to theringfinders.com and one of these stories. I was able to meet Sydney later on that day and she walked around the house showing me areas where her little on had walked. At one point we stopped to talk and as we were talking I glanced down and spotted Sydney’s lost ring just laying in the grass. I told Sydney, “Hey look…there is your ring!” The sun was reflecting just perfectly off of her lost ring and I was able to just bend down and pick it up and both her and her mom teared up and we just stood there stunned and super thankful! It is always a HUGE BLESSING to find a lost ring and to able to place it in it’s rightful owners hand!

Tantalum Wedding Band Lost During Camp Out in Centreville, Alabama… FOUND!

On Thursday (March 19, 2026) I received a text from Dom stating he had lost his tantalum wedding band during a birthday camp out at a friend’s house in Centreville, Alabama that prior Saturday.  Dom, his wife, Rebecca, and friends had spent hours looking for it both visually and with metal detectors.  Centreville is near Tuscaloosa, which is about 2.5 hours from me.  To potentially save a 5-hour drive, I gave Dom some tips to look on Friday.  Dom contacted me back Friday evening and said they still couldn’t find it and asked for my assistance.  I was free Saturday and more than happy to help, so I agreed to drive down from Huntsville and meet them at 11am.

I met up with Dom and Rebecca Saturday morning.  Dom began walking me through all the areas he was at – unpacking the car, walking path, fire pit, and camping areas.  I started where he unpacked/packed the car and worked my way out, stopping anywhere Dom remembered.  We made it out to the round metal fire pit and Dom said he was tending the fire.  I asked if they had moved the pit to search and he said no.  I said let’s move it in case the ring rolled underneath.  We moved it and it wasn’t directly under, but as soon as I stepped back, I caught a glimpse of a circle laying in some ash on the ground.  I glanced up at Dom and said, “I think we got it, brother!”  He said, “no way!”  Dom came over and had trouble spotting it at first, because rings will easily hide in the grass/vegetation and play tricks with our eyes.  But once he saw it, Dom was so happy and relieved.  He called over to Rebecca and the homeowner, Hailey (thanks for letting us search!) to let them know the good news.  Smiles and high fives all around!  We all enjoyed some friendly conversation, and I told them about some of my prior searches.

This was my first time finding a tantalum ring.  For my Ring Finder friends, it was a 63 on the Equinox 900.  As always, thank you, God, for another successful recovery and safe trip!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless!

Diamond Ring Found Underwater by Rob Ellis and Ray Jones, Lake Anna, Virginia

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)

Rob and Christina Smiles!

Christina asked my help to find her lost engagement ring. While staying at a rental house on Lake Anna, she was with her sister in waist deep water and thought she felt the ring slip off her finger. Everyone at the house searched for the ring before she called me.

Christina’s beautiful diamond ring

She obtained the property manager’s permission to search, so I loaded up my SCUBA gear and made the hour and 45-minute drive to the site. Christina walked into the waist-deep, cool water, demonstrating how she thought her ring came off her finger. I carefully searched the area using jack stays and my circular search device. After a thorough hunt, I asked Christine if her ring could have slipped off somewhere else. She showed me where she had jumped off the dock and swam over to the beach.  After 4 and 1/2 hours, I was cold, exhausted, and disappointed. But I was not ready to give up!

I explained to Christina that I would return. I obtained permission from the rental manager and was back in the water in 4 days. I invited my friend Ray Jones to join me. Ray and I often team up, especially for water searches. Ray had decided to search in the shallow water using my Equinox 800.

I had just set up my search pattern near the dock when I heard Ray exclaim, he found Christina’s ring. He had started his search straight from the beach to where Christina thought she lost the ring. As he was walking in about 12 inches of water, he started using the detector. Surprisingly he heard a signal in the correct target tone on the third swing of the coil!

Ray and I met a couple of the neighbors, and one gave up permission to search in the private community dock area. We found some change, fishing rods, and a $10 bill! It was another great day with my friend Ray!

Christina and I met so I could return her beautiful engagement ring. Metal detecting underwater is a big investment in time and resources. After our combined thirteen hours of driving, SCUBA gear maintenance, use of high-quality metal detectors, and five hours search time, it doesn’t seem worth it. But, when I gave Christina her ring, the look on her face was priceless!!

I use state-of-the-art equipment, and I have thousands of hours of experience searching on land and underwater. If you have tried using a detector without success, please text/call to see if I can help.

 

LOST 24k WEDDING RING IN MORRISVILLE, NC…..FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a call that a young man had lost his 24k wedding ring while playing volleyball. They thought he lost it in the sand. I jumped in the truck and made the almost 2 hour drive.

I get there, get the story and begin my search. I searched the entire volleyball sand pit area 3-4 times and wasn’t coming up with the ring. One of the ladies had a 24k gold and it rang up a 91. I couldn’t believe it rang up that high until I found his ring.

I expanded my search area. After about an hour to hour and a half I went near the grass edge to the higher grass area in the direction of the water and I get a 94 signal! I look down and I can see a gold ring! Apprenatly the ring had bounced off the ball and went to his right about 10-15 feet!!

Another recovery in the books! This one was my 100th ring recovery since joining “The Ring Finders!”

*************************************
Total ring recoveries since joining “The Ring Finders” 100 total!

Ring count for 2026: 6 (6 – recoveries)

Family friend looses silver skull ring and we recover it!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)

The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

It was St. Patrick’s Day and I had just finished smoking a corned beef for several hours and was finishing up cooking sides for our dinner.  The phone rang; a family friend we met through our community scouting pack.  Sarah explains that her son wore his fathers silver skull ring to baseball practice at the downtown Waterfront Park and at the end of practice it was missing.

I let her know that I would make the five minute drive to the park as soon as our dinner was finished. When I arrived, I was overwelled by the size of the grassy area of the outfield.  Sarah informed me that Odin had pitched and played first base, all areas that did not include grass.  He did however, walk to the warm up mound at the rear of the outfield and so we began our search there.  As the field lights when out our task got just that much harder, but it wouldn’t take long searching the grass between the dugout and the right field fence that we would “Make the Recovery!”

This would mark the very first recovery I performed in my home town of Martinez, CA and I was happy that I got to perform this service for a family that we know and enjoy.  Thank you Sarah, Odin, Amon, and Freya for your friendship.

Vacation Memories Saved by Metal Detector Expert Finding Gold Jewelry at Laguna Beach, CA.

Metal Detecting Expert available to help you find your lost item in the sand, grass or garden.. Call Stan the Metal Detector Man.. Call or text for prompt service.. 949-500-2136


*** Sarah and Joe were vacationing at Laguna Beach from New York. She lost a gold nail design bracelet during a walk on the sandy beach. It made their stay a little upsetting as this was Sarah’s favorite bracelet.

The day after the loss she contacted me from the airport while waiting to board their flight home. Sarah was able to send me a marked up screen shot of the area where she believed the loss occurred. I was able tell her what chances we have to find the item. On public beaches our chances of successful recoveries  can be compromised by other detectors or beach sifting machines. Most times I can eliminate an area, especially sandy beaches.

This was one of those miracle finds. Such a large target could have been easily found by the cleaning machines or a tourist picking up sea shells. The bracelet was exactly where she  marked up the Google map screen shot. Usually these type recoveries are never where they think they are. It doesn’t take long to eliminate a specific area. This time it was worth the drive and a 20 minute grid search.

I was able to mail the bracelet back to Sarah and Joe. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a photo of them smiling, so  I’m including a selfie of me.
