Received a message from Joe this past Tuesday evening. Joe explained that last Sunday he was at the beach on 7th street in North Wildwood with family. At some point, while on the beach, his wedding band fell off. Joe didnt realize this until he was on his way home on Rt55 near Elmer NJ. After gathering some details from Joe and checking the forecast and tide tables I figured that I would give it a shot the next morning at low tide. I took the short ride over from home and after about 25 minutes of searching, I swung my coil over a really clean solid signal. One scoop later I had Joes ring in my scoop! I texted Joe a picture and to his disbelief it was, in fact, his ring! Joe and his family came by today and picked up his ring. He informed me that he lost the ring the day before his 8th anniversary. Another successful recovery, another happy couple! See the very nice note they wrote in the pics.

Gold Wedding Band – Recovered in Pittsburgh Suburb – Brian Carpenter 814-244-2300

  • from Indiana (Pennsylvania, United States)

Lost your ring, other valuable jewelry, cellphone, keys, or other metal object…call or text Brian Carpenter at (814)244-2300 as soon as possible. I am a ring recovery/metal detecting specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…

I was contacted by Ryan’s wife that he had lost his wedding band at a ballfield. He had went out and tried to find it with a metal detector but was unable to do so. I could not head out immediately and then we got pushed back due to the ballfield being at a school. Finally we were able to meet up and Ryan showed me where he believed the ring was lost. I told Ryan it was a pretty standard search and he could do whatever while he was waiting for me to search. I had told him I brought a few different metal detectors and he asked if he could use one and search as well. Not my normal protocol but it was a large area and it could be done without the machines interfering with each other. I gave him a quick tutorial on how to use it. I only had one pin pointer and had kept it with me for the tall grass. I started at one end and Ryan started at the other. During the search we had a few false alarms where Ryan had a hit but upon further investigation it was not the ring. Then suddenly it was not a false alarm as Ryan hollered over with a big smile and his ring in his hand.

It was awesome that it was recovered and I told Ryan he might have a future as my wingman. He had sworn that he was over that area before with a detector. It is hard to tell as we all know this can be a game of inches but if he was it is also a testament to having the right equipment for the job. It was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client and have the twist of him using some of my equipment to find his ring!

 

Lost – Mens Platinum Wedding Ring, Daytona Beach, FL – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

I had just gotten into my car for a couple of hours of metal detecting when my phone rang. I was headed to a spot in South Daytona when Amro called. Referred by my good friend Mike, he explained that he had lost his platinum wedding ring while swimming in the surf in front of the Daytona Grande Oceanfront Resort.

I told him I was on my way and should be there within thirty minutes, depending on parking. As I drove, I prayed that I would find both a parking spot and the ring.

When I arrived, a close parking space was waiting for me. I gathered my gear, walked onto beautiful Daytona Beach, and met Amro in front of his hotel.

He showed me an area, about thirty feet long that stretched from the wet sand into the waves. “Somewhere in here I felt it slip off,” he said, pointing to the northeast corner. “If I had to guess, it was right there.”

I fired up my trusty Minelab Manticore and began carefully gridding the area, working from the wet sand into knee-deep water. Nothing. Not a beep, not a whisper.

I decided to expand the search. The south side came up empty, but only a few swings into the northern section, I got a strong signal. Just as a wave pushed me off target, I relocated it and took one scoop. Instantly, I heard the unmistakable jangle of a ring in my basket.

Found!

I held the ring high, and Amro came running through the surf. With a huge smile and a grateful hug, he was reunited with the platinum wedding ring from his four-year marriage to his lovely bride Saresh.

Another happy ending on the beach.

God is good.

Lost something important? Maybe I can help. I’m Ed Duffey, a Central Florida metal detecting specialist focused on recovering lost items. Whether it’s a ring, jewelry, keys, or even a phone, I search beaches, parks, yards, and shallow water—just about anywhere it might be hiding.

If it’s metal and it’s lost, there’s a good chance I can find it.

Lost Family Heirloom Gold Found

  • from Bellingham (Washington, United States)
Contact:

A day at Lake Whatcom turned bad when this gal came home without her heirloom ring. They were swimming in Lake Whatcom in Sudden Valley but before going in for a dip she took off some  jewelry and put it on her towel. Then upon returning picked up the towel to dry off and her jewelry was strewn all over the grass. This happens quite often. Matter of fact, many of the calls I get are lost items that were removed because they were afraid of loosing it. My advice to people is if you’re going to remove jewelry, put it into a zippered pocket or container of some sort. The other thing to be aware of is if you lose something in the grass make sure you get back to the location before the grass is mowed. This will dramatically increase the odds of finding it. Thankfully it had not been mowed and the ring was right where she thought it was and I was able to make the recovery.

Lost — Men’s Silver Tungsten Wedding Ring, Daytona Beach, FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

I got a call from Keith early Sunday afternoon. He and his wife of less than a year, Kaylee, were enjoying Memorial Day weekend on Daytona Beach when a strong wave hit him in the surf. Instantly, he felt his wedding ring slip from his finger. He saw it briefly in the water and tried to grab it before another wave buried it beneath the sand.

I told him I’d head that way shortly. On the drive over, I said a prayer asking for guidance.

When I arrived, the conditions were rough. Strong waves, rising wind, and a hard northerly current made it difficult to stand in the waist-deep water. I fired up my Minelab Manticore and searched the area Keith described, but after several passes I decided to return Monday at low tide.

The next day I carefully gridded the exposed beach and searched north with the current, but still no ring.

On Tuesday, after another nearby search, I decided to give it one more try. When I arrived, Keith was there with a borrowed Nokta Triple Score detector. I gave him a quick tutorial and we both started searching.

A short time later, just south of the original area, I got a beautiful signal. Only a few inches down, after all the wind and pounding surf, was Keith’s wedding ring.

I held it up and shouted to Keith.

“No way!” he yelled as he ran toward me.

After three days, the ring was finally back home. Praise God

Rental Detector in Kelowna finds lost ring

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

Leila called me to ask if I rented out a Metal Detector, I told her that I sometimes do if I think it will be a successful hunt, I asked her what she had lost and where she lost the item. Leila had lost her gold ring in the grass at a ball field, she indicated that she knew the exact location. I told her I would rent her a detector that would be easy to use, but she should search for it as early as possible, others may find it in a public place. She came to my location quickly, and I demonstrated to them how to operate the machine. If they were unable to locate the ring I offered to supply my services to also search for it. The call came a few hours later that they had found the ring, success another happy customer.

The kids were playing in the sand, each incoming wave increasing the urgency of adding to the ever growing sand castle wall.  Oops, wedding band gone, lost who knows where!  Was it where we collected shells, or the wet sand or we played ball in knee high surf?  Well, recommendations simply confirm themselves.  From the hotel activities director to the tiki hut guy they all say “call Mark, it’s only lost until you call!”  The story continues, the ring back on the finger where it belongs!

Platinum ring lost in captiva tween waters found

While vacationing from Boston, originally expert recovery divers originally from the Philippines, a husband and wife enjoying their honeymoon after getting married a month earlier, suddenly noticed his platinum wedding band slip off into the Florida gulf (Gulf of America) waters. Upon returning to their room a coordinated joint quick online search and Reddit review confirmed who to call…”it’s only lost until  you call…call Mark!” Arriving first thing the next morning along with Christopher Seeman, a Tampa Ringfinders legend in his own right, the ring was located and secured in short order as the face slapping waves from the approaching storm front quickly interfered.  Well, great news, their story continues….

Lost gold wedding ring, recovered, Rolling Prairie, Indiana (LaPorte County)

  • from Granger (Indiana, United States)

Alex took the dog out, late last night, the temp had dropped cold enough to need an extra layer. He grabbed a coat, which had his father’s wedding band in the top pocket. When bending over to pick up the dog, the ring fell out in the un-mowed lush grass. He had a good idea of where this occurred and contacted me, after finding me via an internet search. Arrived early this morning, began the search, encountered the usual yard targets, but quickly sorted through those. It took just a few minutes of detecting and in the last probably spot, the Nokta Legend-2 detector sang with a nice 32 vdi#/signal. The ring was hiding well in the grass, as Alex said he had searched on hands & knees trying to comb through the grass quite thoroughly.
