*** Ean and his friends were at Huntington City Beach , CA. They were doing a night time campfire on the beach at the public fire pits. He had a set of keys on a key ring that broke while he was swinging them. He was able to find 4 of the 5 keys, but the most important key could not be found.

One of his friends found my information online and Ean called me.  It was only a 7 mile drive for me, so I met him on the beach in dark soon after the call.

I was able to find the key for him shortly after he showed me the suspected area of the loss. He was very happy and appreciative that I showed up promptly and saved his time and trouble to have the key replaced.  Finding sentimental rings and jewelry are not the only things that are important to people. I try to think of that when I get calls to find objects other than jewelry.

Keys Lost and Found on Sandy Pond Trail Cape Cod, MA

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

April 4, 2025

A dog walk around Sandy Pond, as part of Crynne’s daily routine, lead to a stressful afternoon when she returned to her car and could not find her keys. A few trips around the pond in hope of finding the keys proved they were hiding from sight. She thought a metal detector would surely help in finding them.

Eleanor at J&E Enterprises was very helpful, as always. Her recommendation was to call Rick, a member of TheRingFinders. On the call I heard the information I needed and was on my way. My first suggestion was that my search, with Crynne leading the way, be done in the opposite direction from the way Crynne always walked around the pond. This would give us a different point of view.

Mainly because Crynne’s hobby was to remove the trash she saw during her walks, the path was nice and free of trash. Of course some of the removed trash had been just off the beaten path, those areas had to be searched with my metal detector. About ¾ the way around the keys were found. They had been in an area that Crynne had walked over a few times, but from the reverse direction. They were just out of sight when coming from the opposite direction. The keys really did not need a metal detector to be found. Sometimes just a different point of view is all that is needed in ending a stressful situation.

Lost Yellow & Rose Gold with Diamond Wedding Ring at Na’ia Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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

This ring find began the day after Christmas 2024 when Randall who was on vacation from Los Osos, California and staying at the Marriott Beach Club, for the holidays, saw me metal detecting in the waters of Na’ia Lagoon and said he had just lost his ring while snorkeling in deeper waters of the lagoon.  Another tourist tried looking but the area was fairly silty with low visibility.  Winter season surf really silts up Na’ia Lagoon so I told him when the visibility returned I would put my scuba gear on and hunt for his ring.  He showed me a rather well marked by buoys area and I logged that in my notes for later reference.  I had brought my scuba gear to the lagoon several times but it was always low visibility until Saturday 29 March 2025.  I went into the water in scuba gear and laid my bright orange rope on the bottom in the sand & coral as my grid line.  Thankfully only a few minor targets in this area.  I had to go out over the coral rubble areas as that was also part of the search area.  After about 10 minutes of hunting I got a loud unusual tone over the coral rubble.  I waved my hand abruptly over the coral to blast away the sand and Randall’s beautiful ring and a Lincoln cent came into view.  No wonder the tone was so weird.  I grabbed them both and secured them away.  I finished the dive looking elsewhere in the lagoon and found one more rather corroded junk ring.  I texted a picture to Randall in California to confirm.  The ring was opened up this morning and Randall sent me a Shaka!  Aloha to Randall!  Sorry it took three months but you have to be safe on scuba!

Lost cell phones, cash, credit cards and BMW fob in the Wekiva River , Orlando, Florida…found and returned to owner.

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



As a good friend of mine always says, “Don’t waste time renting or borrowing a metal detector if you have never used one. Especially if your lost item is important to you. Call or contact an experienced metal detector expert.”

Deondre and his friend had rented some kayaks for the day and they both had secured their iphones in “waterproof” cases with lanyards and as they paddled down the river they came to a rough area and somehow they tipped their kayak and over they went. Only Deondre did not have his lanyard over his head and his brand new iphone slipped into the water and immediately disappeared. His friend called me and I met them an hour later and paddled out to the exact spot and searched for 3 hours but could not find Deondre’s lost cell phone…but I was able to recover an old water logged ziplock bag with all the contents still intact but completely soaked!

When I got home I cleaned everything up in fresh clean water and put a fan on and left it for 2 days. The money dried nicely and the fob was very dry as well and the credit cards would for sure be canceled and the iphones were…well one was toast and had swollen up and the other looked in very good condition still. So I plugged it in and it amazingly started charging but it was locked and the screen would come on but would not allow me to retrieve any information…even the Medical contacts. I tried looking on Google to see if I could find the person whose name was on the credit cards but there were just too many people with the same name so I resorted to calling the BMW dealer and asked if anyone had reported missing such a fob and when I mentioned the card holders name they said it matched someone in their system and I was given an email address and that info ended up being the husband of the young lady who lost the whole bag of goodies over a year ago!! They were shocked to hear that I wanted to return their lost iphones, credit cards, 114 dollars in cash and a BMW fob! It is always a real pleasure to return something and have a part in seeing the joy and surprise on peoples faces!

Need help in finding something…call or text ASAP at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk!

New Wedding Ring Lost while Gardening .. Downtown Los Angeles, CA. Found by Using Metal Detector

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Don’t waste time renting or borrowing a metal detector if you have never used one. Especially if your lost item is important to you. Call or contact an experienced metal detector expert.


*** Richard was doing a little bit of gardening at his home in downtown Los Angeles, CA. When he believed he lost his gold wedding ring. He wasn’t quite sure because he didn’t feel it come off his finger. It wasn’t until two hours later, inside his home that he noticed his new wedding ring,  only two months old was not on his finger.

He knew the ring needed to be resized, but he was waiting for a weather change to get the best fitting. After searching the inside of the house, he believed it could be in the planters where he had remove leaves by hand.

I met Richard the next morning and proceeded to check the planters while it was raining. The light rain was distracting so I did two or three passes with the metal detector and I used the handheld pinpointer to get into the difficult spots.  Then, just before giving up, I scanned the grassy area in front of the ground level planters. BOOM !! .. Richard’s gold wedding ring was in the grass.  Richard came outside to check on my progress just as I was taking a photo of the ring for the book of smiles. He looked down to see what I was doing and let out a big surprising yell. “ You Got It”

Lost – Ladies heirloom 14K gold ring, New Smyrna Beach, FL – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

If you’ve lost ring anywhere in Central Florida…

Call Detector Ed 757-419-0299

On Saturday, I was just getting ready to throw burgers on the grill when my phone buzzed.  My friend Daniel tagged me in a Facebook post.  A lady had lost her ring, handed down from her late grandma and the tide was coming in.  I knew I had to go try to find it.

Before I started driving to the beach, I prayed that God would help me.  Then I FB messaged Karyn who posted that her friend lost her grandmother’s ring.  When she called me, she mentioned that she had left, and the lady had left also.  I didn’t have much to go on, but she sent me a picture of where they were parked.

In a short time, I arrived on scene and a group of guys approached me and said, “are you here to look for the ring?”  I was relieved!  They gave me a rough idea of where the ring was lost.

Within 5 minutes I located a great signal with the Minelab Manticore!  It was the ring!  A beautiful 14k gold ring with an inscription from her grandpa to her grandma and the date…June 1941!  This treasure was going back to where it belonged.

The owner, Kym called me later that day and I was able to give it to her a few days after!  She was incredibly grateful.  God is Good!

Lost Custom Made Wedding Ring at Huntington Beach Pier… Returned to Newlywed

Metal  Detecting service available for Huntington City Beach .. Call or Text Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136


*** A guy named Sindha called me on week day night just after he lost his Silver Wedding Ring at Huntington City Beach. This was lost in the dry sand just as the sun set.  He had been brushing sand off his clothes after sitting when his wedding ring flew off his finger.

Sindha has only been married less than two months so this was traumatic for he and his wife. Very frustrating searching through the sand with their fingers as the cold wind got more intense. They called me for help after searching the internet for information about metal detecting services.

This location of the loss was very close to the Huntington Beach Pier where the beach sifting machines clean every evening, starting after 10 pm. If the machines miss it. The ring would not have survived the recreational metal detectorists that work this area of the beach everyday.

Knowing the urgency of this search, I was able to meet them soon after the call and before the beach closed. It was a quick recovery because they didn’t waste too much time trying to find the ring by hand searching or trying to rent a metal detector. It also helped that they were still at the beach, so they put me in a 20’x20’ area.

It was a pleasure to be available to help such a nice couple. I love this hobby.

Call or text for information or help with how this service works.. 949-500-2136 .. 24/7 … I WILL TRY ANYWHERE.

Lost Gold Hawaiian Ring at Pounder’s Beach La’ie…FOUND!!!

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

This ring find began on Monday when I got a text from Angelica who lives in Kalihi on Oahu, her text said, “hi! i lost this ring in the area circled in red of Pounder’s Beach in La’ie last Saturday night, March 29.  would you be able to find it?”  I called Angelica to get some details and she had been kneeling in shallow water along the shoreline when her ring came off and disappeared in the waves.  I checked the surf and tide report and decided Thursday afternoon would be ideal.  The next day she texted, i’ve had a change of mind–i’m just gonna let my ring stay lost there haha.  I didn’t know what to think but decided since I had never detected that beach I would give it a shot on my own.  I went Thursday after work.  Driving up the East coast of Oahu is always breath taking with the steep Koolau Mountains on one side and the ocean on the other.  After arriving I hiked down the beach to the far end where Angelica lost her ring and had circled in red in her picture.  It was a little rough from the North swell wrap but doable.  Thankfully not too much trash on this desolate beach so targets were minimal.  After about 30 minutes and nearing the end of where I was going to search, I got a nice tone on the Manticore.  It was near some lava rocks so I wasn’t expecting much.  On the third scoop, low and behold there was Angelica’s pretty Hawaiian Ring in the scoop.  Thank you , Jesus!  I went back to my car and sent Angelica a pic asking, “Look like this?”  yes! you went to find it?  I called her and let her know the good news and since she is busy with college stuff, we agreed she would swing by my home on Sunday for the return.  Her priorities are perfect, “School first”.   Aloha to Angelica!

LOST GOLD 750 CARTIER RING in RALEIGH, NC…… FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Barley got home and a young lady texted me saying she had lost her gold 750 Cartier ring in Raleigh while playing in an outdoor beach volleyball tournament.

She said she lost it while making a play on the ball. She felt it slide off. She said she went back today with a metaldetecter and couldn’t find it.

She asked when I could come and find it for her. So, of course I said, “Give me 10 mins and I’ll be on the road!”

When I arrived there were a group of people playing volleyball so I had to wait. As soon as they were done, my first signal in the corner of the playing area was her ring.

Today was 2-2 gold ring kind of day!!!

LOST 18K DIAMOND RING in NEW LONDON, NC……FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Received a call the other day from a gentleman whose wife had lost an 18k gold ring about two years ago. He asked if I could come and try to find it. I was currently working that day, but I said I would come first thing Sunday when I was off. I get to the house meet his wife and she begins to show me where she was at and what she was doing the day she lost her ring. I began to search, I was hearing many signals, but I got a good signal under a holly bush tree move back the dirt and I could see a gold circle. I stood up, looked over at her and said I think I just found your ring. The smile and the excitement on her face said it all. She was beside herself with joy. She couldn’t believe that after two years, she was reunited with a ring that she’s so cherished.

After finding the ring, we stood in the driveway talking about the ring. They shared with me that it was a custom ring made in New York. The jewelry company name was seven fingers. Because the jeweler only had seven fingers.

I love putting smiles back on peoples faces!!
