Lost Heirloom Ring in Destin – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Jamie and Falon reached out this morning with some upsetting news. They were on a family vacation in Destin. The night before while taking family photos, Falon lost a very special ring somewhere on the beach. This ring was over 100 years old and belonged to her great grandmother. Her great grandmother had given it to her the night before Jamie and Falon got married years before. Falon also explained that they had lost her great grandmother back during COVID. I told them that I would drive over immediately. I started searching and it began to rain. I hoped that it wouldn’t start lightning but I needn’t have worried. In about 15 minutes I heard the sound I was looking for. It was pretty deep by that point but it came out shining beautifully. When I gave it back to the happy couple I was reminded why I do this. I hope having the ring back where it belongs makes the trip back home a little easier. 👍😃

This one is hard to swallow.

  • from Cochrane (Alberta, Canada)

Had a call from Tyler.  While sitting in his back yard eating a sandwich, his gold tooth disappeared. He searched the clover patch in front of him with no luck. That’s when I was called him. I assured him that if he knew what, where and when it happened I would find it. I arrived, and searched the ground. No luck. Every possible signal was either buried or not the tooth. The detective in me took over. We checked pockets, cuffs and everything else. Still no ring. That left me with one possibility. After removing his belt, and every other piece of metal, I scanned his stomach.  Sure enough, a soft 62 on my AT Pro. I had him turn around and I scanned again. Same result. Found it. It’s a waiting game now.

Brewster, MA Platinum Band Returned 11 Years After Loss – Rick Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

July 25, 2024:

Returns are getting hard to believe. My last return was of a ring I found 2 years ago. The owner contacted me after seeing a post of another ring I had returned.

While out detecting with a friend we stopped at one beach, just because it was on our way home. It took about 5 minutes to grab our gear from the van, reminisce about finding a platinum ring many years ago and head for the water. At the water’s edge very close to where I had found a platinum ring I was approached by Mike. As Mike and I talked about how long I had been detecting, some questions about the art of detecting, he then asked if I had found a platinum ring 8 or so years ago. Mike had been tossing a ball when his wedding band took to the water and hid from the group of people that participated in the search for it. The band was platinum and had a date inscribed on it. I told him I may just have his ring at home if my memory was not fooling me. I asked him to get my contact information from the back of my van in the parking lot. With the info he could contact me and after I got home I would look for the ring then contact him, one way or an other.

That day, so long ago, after Mike’s group had left the beach, I showed up to enjoy an hour or so of hobby detecting before last light. My first target that night was a platinum ring right on the water’s edge. Those still on the beach as I was leaving for the night did not know of anyone losing a ring. Nor did I know of Mike losing his ring at that time.

Fast forward 11 years (Back to today): At home the third ring I looked at had the date of 3-25-00, I had Mike’s ring. Yes, it had been 11 years ago, my records showed the platinum ring was found on August 16, 2013; boy how time passes so rapidly. His reply to my call was that he would, if it was OK with me, be on his way to my house after dinner to be reunited with his wedding band.

The entire family showed up for the reunion of the ring and its owner, pictures and a few stories. What another wonderful story ending with a bunch of smiles and happiness that made for a most memorable vacation on Cape Cod.

Wedding Ring Lost Off Deck in Yard in Eagle Rock…Found and Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

Josh contacted me regarding his wedding ring that he lost while washing his dog on his backyard deck. His house is on a hillside, and his deck is a couple stories above the ground below. He was washing the dog when he flicked his hand, and the ring came off and bounced into the grass down below. He watched it go over the side, so he had an idea of where it could have gone, but the ground cover below was thick and tall; and very hard to find something as small as a ring.

When I got there Josh showed me the area he thought the ring went into, and estimated the distance it had traveled. I got my detector, and climbed down for the search. The hillside was thick with tall grass, maybe 8 to 10 inches high with a lot of weeds intermingled. I began at the edge of the walkway, and worked my way down the hillside slowly pushing the grass down, and listening for even the faintest of signals. I did find many construction orientated items during the search, and kept looking, going over new ground working away from the walking path. I finally found the ring in a very thick patch of tall grass, and was able to bring it back up to Josh who was happy to see it again. A lot of work rewarded with a great smile.

Lost and found gold wedding band Sandbanks Provincial Park

Received a text from James yesterday about having lost his gold wedding band, on Monday, while camping at a Sandbanks Provincial Park camp site. While tossing a ball back and forth with his friends, he went to catch the ball and felt his ring being knocked off his finger. This was right at the edge where sands stops and weed beds begin. James went and purchased a metal detector and tried to find his ring. Unfortunately, cheaper metal detectors cannot be submerged (the head portion) deep enough for his recovery. After arriving at the camp site, quickly Facetimed with James to get further details. 30 minutes later, found the ring and it’s now in the mail to Ottawa. Life is good.

Lost Rose Gold, Tungsten and DIAMONDS Wedding Band at Pililaau Army Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call this evening from Chief Warrant Officer Dustin who was having a vacay with his family at Pililaau Army Recreation Center.  While enjoying time at the beach at some point his Rose Gold & Tungsten Diamond encrusted Wedding Ring went missing.  He was sure it was in the dry sand but he had also gone in the water briefly.  I told Dustin I would get there as quickly as I could but Google Maps was saying an hour.  It was late so I brought my headlamp and a backup flashlight.  When I arrived Dustin met me at the gate and then brought me down to the beach where his lovely wife Sarah and the kids were still looking in the sand for the ring.  I asked Dustin to draw me a box where he thought I’d find the ring.  After starting my grid search the first target of course was a pulltab.  Continuing on the third leg of the grid gave a booming #57 solid on the Manticore and after two scoops there was Dustin’s amazing ring in the scoop.  I yelled “BINGO” and Sarah and Dustin came running over as I pulled the ring from my scoop.  OMG!  A few hugs and well wishes and then I headed home as it was now dark.  So happy I didn’t have to go in the water.  Aloha to Dustin & Sarah!

Lost wedding Ring in Lake, Returned in Kelowna

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

Nick had been married for 2 days and was honeymooning in Kelowna BC. On the busy Beach at City Park, with the temperature over 30, he decided to go for a swim. His wife said maybe you should take your ring off, he didnt and he lost it in the Lake. He called me for assistance, and I responded within 30 minutes. He walked me out to the location, and said right here. I got a signal and in my first scoop was his ring, two feet further out was the deep dropoff, and it would have been too deep. An early response and a good location marked was the key to success.

Nearly two years ago, I helped a client recover her rings at Carpinteria State Beach after they fell while she moved her chair during a camping trip. After every recovery, I wish folks well and jokingly say I hope not to see them again—at least not for lost jewelry! Fast forward to today, and that same client called me from almost the exact spot at Carpinteria State Beach. This time, her young son was the culprit. She’d set her rings on a small table to apply sunscreen, and he grabbed them to bring to her—only to drop one in the sand.
Two years back, she’d spent hours with a rented metal detector, fumbling to find her rings. Not this time—she knew to call me, Dave MacDonald, at 805-290-5009 right away. We shared a laugh about her repeat business, and I promised to be there within the hour for another lost ring recovery at Carpinteria State Beach. I arrived, gridded the area with my Minelab Manticore, and in just three minutes, her ring was back in my ckg scoop—safe and sound! She asked me to skip her photo in this blog since she’s my first repeat customer. I told her it’s always good to have a friend in the ring recovery game for spots like Rincon Beach Park or Summerland Beach—just in case!

Platinum Wedding Band Lost in Sunnyvale, CA…FOUND!!!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)

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

   

I have been requested for a string of esoteric recoveries involving planning, special equipment, and unusual conditions as of lately.  This was NOT one of them!

The most difficult part of this recovery would be the hour commute to the site.  I was requested to search for a lost platinum men’s wedding band on a sand volleyball court in Sunnyvale, CA.  This recovery was completed before the client could even complete the search contract.  Everyone was extremely surprised and happy to have located the ring so quickly!  The couple had only been married 6 months and it was the second time the ring had been lost.  I jokingly told them to keep my number on speed dial!  We made the recovery!

To the family… Thank you for trusting me with your ring recovery!
