I received a contact from Linda about a lost ring in the sand at the beach. Her husband had given her his ring to hold when he went down to the water, and while he was gone, she flipped her hand, and the ring that she had placed on her finger went into the soft sand, and disappeared. I was free, and left immediately to do the search to make sure that it would be found.

When I got to the beach it was very windy, and I found Linda and her husband David on the berm that the county erects yearly to stop any possibility of flooding during the stormy Winter months. They had not left the area of the loss, so I knew that the search should be successful, it was just a matter of not being confined to a box search, but allowing for any possibility to have occurred. I began the search, and went over a shoe they had placed as a border, and got a signal. I moved the shoe, and dug, but came up empty. Thinking that maybe the shoe might have been the signal, I went out for one pass of the grid, and came back. I went over once more where the shoe had been, the signal came up again, I dug again, and there it was, David’s ring. The place where the ring was lost was small, so I was very certain it would be recovered. I then found out that they had only been married one month, so Linda must have been heart broken to have lost David’s ring. Well it was my pleasure to restore some joy in their lives that day!

Ryan contacted me about his wedding ring lost in the surf while he was swimming at the beach. It was a matching ring to his wife’s, and not one that he wanted to lose. I let him know that we had to wait a while for the tide to drop to allow a thorough search of the area, because the tide was high when the ring was lost.

When I got there Ryan met me, and took me to the area of the loss. He showed me what had happened, and where he thought the ring came off. I began my grid up and down the beach, and into the water, as I had to be sure to cover all the sand possible. The beach was sanded in, so there was a lack of signals, just a lot of quiet as I was searching. I kept making my grid, line after line, and fighting the moving water as I went into the surf, then after a long stretch, I got a good signal, dug, and there it was, Ryan’s ring. He had left, because he had a party to attend, so he was not able to see me bring it up out of the sand, but I sent him a text with a picture of his ring and he got right back to me. We arranged to make the return, on their way to the party, and ended a very happy day.

Lost Gold Texas A&M Graduation Ring at Queen’s Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)


This Ring Find began when I woke up from surgery. While I was in another world my wife got a call from Chris from Dallas, Texas. After enjoying the day swimming at Waikiki Beach two days earlier, upon exiting the water Chris’ wife Sharon was having her Gold Texas A&M ring begin to slip off her finger. She removed the ring and held it tightly in her fist. When all of a sudden a powerful wave crashed into her back and knocked her down into the shore break sand. To brace her fall her fist naturally opened and the ring fell into the surf and disappeared. She was devastated! This area near the Kapahulu Pier is a favorite of the body boarders as it’s pretty much a surf pound year around. I checked for low tide and Chris agreed to meet me at the beach at 12:30 this afternoon. The surf was still pounding but Chris drew a small enough grid in the sand I thought it would be a cinch. 45 minutes later and after a dozen pull tabs and 7 bottle caps I was very frustrated. Each target was a challenge to retrieve in the surf. Who decided to pollute the beach and party here? The ring had to be here because those targets would never have been left behind by another detectorist. I expanded the grid out in both directions but no luck. I had one last option head into the rocky coral area and see what is scoop able. This was out of the grid but near enough to come into play. Sure enough a screaming 19-20 on the Nox which I thought would be a Zincoln Cent…but nope it was Sharon’s awesome ring mixed in with a scoop of coral chunks. What a relief! I yelled over to Chris, “Got it!” He came running down to retrieve the ring from the scoop before the next wave crashed into me. Chris was so surprised and grateful he gave me a bear hug and said, “Thank you so much Joe.” Hopefully Sharon & Chris can get back to enjoying their vacation. Aloha to Sharon & Chris!

Lost White Gold Diamond Woman’s Ring Set in Gahanna, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

I received a call about a lost white gold diamond woman’s ring set. The set was lost in the snow and was unable to find it about three weeks early.

During that day when she lost her rings, she had visited many other locations, she had made many phone calls about her missing rings at the other places of business with no luck.

After metal detecting two other locations close by with no luck, the last place we looked, there was the rings. Found one then the other close by.

She was very happy to have her rings returned to her.

Lost Sterling Silver Pendant and Chain Found In The Snow In Clio Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Petals In The Snow……

…..What? Could this be a sign of an early spring just as Punxsutawney Phil has predicted?

Got a call from Tammy last night she said that her thin silver chain broke loose when she was carrying groceries into her house back when heavy snow fell down upon s/e Michigan a couple weeks ago. It wasn’t until bedtime she noticed it missing. Searching the next day in the heavy snow revealed nothing and the parking area had been plowed. Upon arrival today most of the snow had melted leaving the parking area clear of snow. I noticed a mound of plowed snow so I used my garrett at gold metal detector to start scanning the around the mound. Nothing signaled on the first scan so we shoveled a bit deeper into the mound. Scanning again I got a faint signal. Scraping away into the snow revealed this really pretty sterling silver Lotus flower pendant and chain shining back at me! Tammy was beyond belief but super happy that it was in the snow mound. So even tho the groundhog saw his shadow, the Lotus petals in the snow are proof enough for me that spring is on the way!

Custom Gold and Jeweled Ring Lost in Yard…Found and Joyously Returned

I was contacted by Adam concerned about the loss of his father Jerry’s ring. This turned out to be a ring that Jerry’s wife had custom made for him over 50 years ago. This was a ring that had so much sentimental value that literally made it priceless. It had one large stone with tiny rubies surrounding it. Jerry had been out in his yard enjoying working in the garden, and when he was done his precious gift was gone. They had been looking for the ring for at least 5 days already. Adam and I arranged a search, set a time, and I was on my way.

When I arrived, Adam was working to get a detector ready for a search. We talked, and he took me around showing me where his father had been working in the garden, and I could see a whole bunch of loss possibilities. There was one area that he seemed to be more concerned with, so I began in that area. I searched the deep grass on the edge of the area first, no ring. I then went into the flower bed, and began using the pin pointer to work in and around the Lily of the Nile (Agapanthus) plants that were in that part of the yard. It was when I put the pin pointer into the middle of one of the plants that my device sounded off. I began to spread the leaves, and down in the middle of the plant, deep, and under some dead leaves the glimmer of gold caught my eye. I brought it over to Jerry’s son to show him, and he was so happy to see it again, and very happy for his father. When Jerry saw it again, he just couldn’t believe it, he was resigning himself to figure it was gone forever.  I think that without the pin pointer, the ring might never have been found due to where it was located. Jerry had been tossing plant food across the yard when his ring must have flown off, and went into the plant. I later found out that Jerry is a renown singer song writer with such classic hits to his name as Travelin’ Man (Ricky Nelson), and Young Girl (Gary Puckett and The Union Gap). I was so happy to be able to reunite Jerry and his ring.

Donations to the Club are accepted. We will send a team of metal detector experts to search virtually any location. Some of the most common are parks, beaches, creeks and even your own backyard. If you have lost your ring or any other precious item, “Don’t Wait – Call Now.” Sean and Angela were visiting Sean’s parents and decided to take a walk to a house they were going to buy nearby. They started the walk down the sidewalk and got about four houses away when Angela spotted something and swung her arm up to point. As her arm flew up, off flew her wedding band. She saw where it went into the grass along the sidewalk so they searched until dark and then again the next morning but could not find it. Now this was no standard ring. Sean had the wedding band custom made to fit around his grandmothers wedding ring. Although they still had the grandmothers engagement ring the custom gold band representing their marriage was lost. Angela googled “how to find a lost gold ring” and found the SRARC website with it’s success stories and the rest is history. Since the search area was so small Howard Mett’s called Mike Miller and he met Sean and Angela at the site a short time later. In a few minutes Mike found the ring hidden under the grass and was rewarded with lots of smiles and laughter.

  • from Brampton (Ontario, Canada)

Nitin from Brampton & Bhavna from Caledon were recently engaged to be married within the last week. They made a trip up to Blue Mountain Village in Collingwood, Ontario for some fresh air and a day out!

Nitin decided to make a snow ball on the pathway between the parking lot and the village stores. He felt his 11g 14k white brushed gold and diamond filled engagement band fall off his finger.
Nitin purchased a metal detecting as well as a blow torch to melt the snow. Unfortunately, Nitin had no success but tried his best.

Nitin searched the internet and found the ‘The Ring Finders Dot Com’ directory where he found my information. We made arrangement to meet at the Village on Monday late afternoon.

With-in 54 seconds, I had a sold 9 VDI signal on my Minelab Equinox 800 detector with-in 2” in the snow. I cleared the snow with my boot and spotted the Nitin’s engagement band!!

Check out the video and surprise;

A very happy couple alongside Bhavna’s Mother who was visiting from overseas. All were elated with joy!

Nitin made a generous donation to the “Kelly Shires Breast Cancer Foundation’ on my behalf at my requirement for my ‘pay-it-forward’ campaign raising charity donation using my passion for metal detecting/scuba dive detecting for this charity I’ve been associated with 13 of 22 years!!

Thank you Nitin & Bhavna for allowing me the honour to recover and return Nitin’s sentimental engagement ring!
I wish you both much love & forever happiness with your upcoming nuptials in May! Blessings to all!

  

Lost Gold Signet Ring in the Sea at Russell – Found After Three Years of Searching!

  • from Paihia (New Zealand)

Ring Finder – Ring Recovery Specialist…Lost ring? Lost necklace? Lost keys?… Metal Detector Service – Call ASAP 021 401626

Three years ago, Connor was swimming at Long Beach near Russell and he felt his gold signet ring slip off his finger.
This was a one-off piece, well sort of, as each of the family had one made with the family crest embossed into it. Effectively irreplaceable.

I met with Connor at the time and spent some hours looking for it in the surf and on the beach, however came back empty handed.

It was highly unlikely a casual detectorist had found it in such a short time, so it had to have gone deep with the sand movement.
It became a thorn in my side, knowing it was there…
Any time I was in Russell since then, I had a look at the beach – Some days the sea and sand were favourable so I spent a few more hours looking. As I do with any outstanding recovery.
Other days, there was obviously a lot of deep sand overburden, so any attempt wouldn’t be productive.
About three weeks ago, I stopped by as had become habit (bordering on obsession) whenever I was on the peninsula.
I saw a very shallow and subtle shift in the beach contour so I kitted up.
The first hole produced a very old and white-oxidised lead sinker, this looked promising – but had someone else beaten me to it with the ring?
Second signal was a clean low tone, but very faint. I dug the scoop in deep, but the signal remained in the hole.
Second scoop took me down to around 40cm deep, the hole was silent so whatever it was, was in the scoop.
Expecting another sinker, I shook the sand out of the scoop in the water, looked in and there was a beautiful orangey-yellow of gold, just starting to get that water-aged tone.

Three years… and fifteen days, after it had been lost.

I emailed Connor that night with a photo. His reply was that of amazement, disbelief, and lots of exclamation marks.

Today he drove up from Auckland, and I handed his family ring back to him, smiles and handshakes aplenty.

I sat in the car afterwards, and put a line through his entry in my little black book and wrote, with immense satisfaction,

FOUND! 11/02/21
