I was able to locate the engagement ring! They were able to enjoy the rest of their week in Wildwood Crest, NJ!

Elizabeth and her family were enjoying a beautiful beach day in Wildwood Crest, NJ when disaster struck. Before applying sunscreen to her children, Elizabeth placed both her engagement ring and wedding band on a towel to keep them safe. In the rush of taking care of the kids, she forgot the rings were there. When she lifted the towel, the rings flew into the sand.

Panic quickly set in.

The entire family began searching the area, hoping to spot the missing jewelry. After some time, they successfully found the wedding band, but the engagement ring was still lost in the soft beach sand. That’s when Elizabeth decided to call for professional help.

As a beach ring finder based just a town over, I was able to respond quickly. I arrived at the scene with my metal detector and, after asking a few quick questions to narrow down the search area, I began sweeping the sand.

It only took a few passes with my detector before I heard the tone I was hoping for.

Buried just under the surface was Elizabeth’s lost engagement ring, still sparkling and safe. The moment I returned the ring to her, the relief and joy on her face said it all.

Thanks to a quick response and reliable lost ring recovery, Elizabeth and her family were able to relax and enjoy the rest of their beach vacation.

Lost and found gold wedding ring in Cobourg Ontario

Contact:

Received a phone call from Parshant late last evening. He and his brother and family had spent the day at Cobourg beach when disaster struck. While playing volleyball in the water, he felt and saw his 22k gold wedding band fly off his finger while hitting the ball. After a frantic search for over an hour, they manage to find me via the Ringfinder’s website. I gathered all the required equipment and headed to Cobourg beach. The issue was that they couldn’t quite remember exactly where the ring had fallen off and ended up with a very large search area. After searching for over an hour and a half, it was now dark. I decided to come back the following morning for a fresh start. As this beach is heavily hunted by metal detectorists, and following a long weekend with Canada day festivities, I had to find this ring ASAP. Using grid markers along the shore, I was able to grid the area properly and within thirty minutes, I finally was able to scoop the ring out of the water and return it to its rightful owner this evening. Another happy ending and beautiful day at the beach. Life is good.

300th Find and Return, Man’s Lost Tungsten Wedding Band Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

I received a text right at noon saying, “I don’t know if this is the right number, but I found it online for a ring finder at Myrtle Beach. I lost my tungsten wedding ring in the waves out at the beach near 19th Ave south and Southern Breeze Oceanfront. Is there any possible chance it could even be found, or would the undertow and waves at about 3 feet deep have carried it out?” I called the attached number and talked to Logan and asked him what time he lost it. He said about an hour before his text. I looked up the tide table for Myrtle Beach and high tide was at 11:27 am. Perfect, the tide had changed, so I told him there was a great chance of finding it and I’d be there at 3 pm. That would put me there right at mid-tide.

Right around 2 pm, I was getting antsy, so I text him saying I was on my way. With this being Sunday, I was concerned the beach would be packed with tourist and there wouldn’t be any parking. I got lucky with both and met Logan on the beach. He showed me the area and explained that he was about knee deep. He also made a comment about getting hit in the back with a wave. This confused me a little, in that I thought he may have been deeper than he thought with an outgoing tide. He gave me the north and south boundaries, and I started an east/west perpendicular to the beach grid line. After almost an hour and a half of searching and extending my search area on all four sides, I was coming up with nothing. Towards the end I was going in the ocean knee deep at mid tide. I went so far as asking a lady, who’d been on the beach longer than I was, if she saw anybody else with a detector. I also asked the lifeguard if anybody had turned in a ring. I was whooped, both mentally and physically. I called Logan and told him I couldn’t find it. I could tell in his voice he was hurt that I couldn’t find his ring.

I drove a couple of blocks towards home and remembered I had brought a second detector, which I usually do as a back-up. I called Logan back and told him I was going back to try again with a different detector. Logan had already called his wife, who’ll be here later this week, and told her he lost it, I was going to search, and then that I couldn’t find it. So, they were both on a little bit of a roller coaster ride.

I walked back out on the beach with a second wind and started a north/south grid line. About 30 minutes later I hit a target with a VDI (visual display indicator) of 18, exactly what a man’s Tungsten wedding band would show up as. No doubt in my mind that I had Logan’s ring. Took a scoop of sand, dumped in out on the beach, and moved the sand with my foot. There it was! I took a picture and sent to Logan saying, “Found it!! I’ll drop it off.” He responded instantly, “Oh my GOD. Thank you so much!! I don’t know if I just missed it on my first search or my southern boundary wasn’t far enough, regardless of how or why, the ring was found and returned.

Logan – So happy I got your treasure back where it belongs. Enjoy the rest of your vacation.

Huge gold chain lost and found in Apsley Ontario

Contact:

Received a text from Lou yesterday about him having lost his gold chain while swimming. Lou, and his young family, had rented a cottage near Apsley on Chandos lake. While playing with the kids, he did a few dives off the dock only to realize later that his huge gold chain was no longer around his neck. After arriving early this morning and getting situated, I got in the water and went to work with my Excalibur II under water metal detector. After eliminating a few trash signals, I heard the sweet tone of gold and found his chain within ten minutes. Although the chain is very valuable due to the size and weight, it is priceless as it was given to him by his grandmother. Another happy ending.

Man’s Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Ocean, Recovered and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

This little adventure started Wednesday around 3:30 pm with a text from Kelly saying, “Hello is this Jim Wren? I was just searching online and came across Ring Finders which lead me to your contact. My name is Kerry, a poor soul who lost his dang wedding ring here in North Myrtle Beach. It popped off while throwing a football around in the shallow water where the tide comes in just outside our hotel. Just curious if you might be available Jim? Feel free to respond via text or call. I’m here until Saturday this week. If not, it’s no problem at all. Thanks for your time, man.” I immediately checked the tide tables; low tide was just before 2 pm.  I then called Kelly to discuss the circumstances. He said he had lost it about an hour prior to his text and was in thigh to knee deep water.  I told him I’d be there in about 15 minutes, grabbed my detector and was on my way.

When I got to the beach, I met Kelly’s brother when he came up to me. He introduced me to Kristen, Kelly’s wife. As we were talking, Kelly came up and showed me the area where they were throwing the ball. Luckily, Kelly is right-handed, so the ring didn’t get thrown off. I was 2 hours behind the tide change, but the ring should be in water no higher than my waist. I started an east/west perpendicular grid search, going low and slow with the detector. I wasn’t picking up any targets at all. As the tide was coming in I was working in deeper and deeper water.  I was finally up to my chest when I got a great signal. The signal was what I expected for a man’s yellow gold ring. I was able to get a scoop of sand out, which was empty – no ring. As I find the target again with the detector, I wasn’t paying attention and got hit with a big swell that knocked me backward. From that point, I wasn’t able to find the target again, even though I tried. To get me back in the area on my return, I walked off the steps back to the beach and even with a drainage pipe. Total of 89 steps, give or take with me getting pushed by the current. I wasn’t able to do a good search, so I told Kelly I’d be back the next day, Thursday and called it a day.

I showed up around an hour before low tide so I could get a head start. I met Kelly and Kristen to let them know I was there and went to work. I walked off the 89 steps, plus another 15 or so steps. I’d rather search too much area than not enough. I started my east/west grid and extended my north and south boundary lines. I was getting nothing! The ring should be right there, but I wasn’t finding it. I then started a north/south grid line running parallel to the beach. For me, parallel grids are more difficult because it’s harder to keep a straight grid line. Still with no luck, I took a break to refocus. After my break, I started another east/west grid, tightening my grid lines. I finally hit the target I found the day before and dug it out of the ocean sand. Boom, it was a cap off an orange juice bottle. I had a few choice words and continued. I took another 4-5 steps and got a very iffy signal with the numbers jumping all over the place. I dug the target, shook the wet sand out in the water, and when I looked inside the scoop and there was Kelly’s yellow gold wedding band looking up at me amongst all the shells. I walked up the beach to where Kelly and Kristen had been sitting all day. I was exhausted but made it look worse than it was so Kelly and Kristen would think I was done. I had slipped Kelly’s ring on my index finger and when he was talking and looking away, I held my hand up and when he turned towards me, he saw his ring and froze. I got him! After I gave him his ring, I learned that his and Kristen’s rings were very special and sentimental to them. Both rings were custom made and each of their rings had 3 stones in them that they got from Kelly’s mother and grandmother. Priceless!

Kelly and Kristen – Thank you so much for trusting me to help find your very special ring. Enjoy the rest of your vacation, have a safe trip back home to Ohio, and I wish you two only the best in life,

Jim

Heirloom Yellow Gold Engagement Ring Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Coming off an unsuccessful ocean ring search, I got the following text from Jason. The text read, “I lost a ring on the beach yesterday around 5:30 pm. It’s a gold ring with two birthstones. We were at Ocean Lakes Resort. We went onto the beach at the Lovestone Dr entrance and were sitting directly in front of the first set of blue chair rentals to the right when you enter the beach. My name is Jason.” He also included his phone number which I called. I got a few more details and told him I’d be there in about 20 minutes. First off, the facility does not allow businesses on the premises. Secondly, they don’t give out visitor passes without the owner’s, not the renters, permission. So, I ended up telling the clerk I wasn’t a business and then I had to park across the street at a Walgreens and have Jason come pick me up. After all that Jason and I finally made our way to the beach.

When we walked out the beach, it was packed with tourist. Jason told me he lost the ring when his fiance, Molly handed him the ring to hold. He put the ring in his lap and forgot about it until he stood up and the ring went flying and disappeared in the dry sand. They had asked a young gentleman with a metal detector to look, without success. Unfortunately, with all the families, I had a very limited area I could search. I did get a couple of people to move but not many. I did what I could and talked to Jason and we decided it’d be better for me to come back in a couple of hours.

I showed back up 2 hours later, and Jason and I went through the same process of parking and getting in the facility. When we walked out on the beach this time, there was nobody in the way. Jason verified the area, and I started a grid search. As I got to the end of where Jason thought the ring should be, I got the signal I was looking for. I dug a small scoop of sand, shook it out of the scoop and saw Molly’s engagement ring in the bottom. I held it up for Jason to see, and I could see the relief come across his face. We decided we’d surprise Molly, so Jason put the ring in his wallet. On the way back to the house, Jason explained that the ring was his grandmother’s ring. When Jason and Molly got engaged, she gave the ring to them as a gift. Jason said he was up most of the night before trying to figure out how to tell his grandmother the ring was lost.

When we got back to the house Jason handed his wallet to Molly and asked her to take out all his cash for me. She took out some and Jason said “No, all of it.” As she pulled out the last of the bills, her eyes welled up and the tears started coming. She jumped off the sofa and gave me a huge hug. I looked at Jason and said, “This is what it’s all about!”

Jason and Molly – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. I wish you two all the best in life,

Jim

Platinum Wedding Band Lost While Cutting Yard-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

Kevin had contacted me and said he had lost his wedding band in the yard while cutting the grass. They had looked for it for a couple of days but the weeds in that area were quite tall and finding a ring visually was out of the question. I found the ring in an area where the weeds were around eight inches tall. Total search time was around an hour.

Gold Wedding Band Lost Right After Wedding-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

Linsey called me and said they had held a wedding venue in their yard for their daughter and son-in-law. Her yard was quite large and her son-in-law had lost his ring right after the wedding. She had purchased a metal detector but struck out.  Because of the size of the yard I set up a grid search and it took me all of two hours before I found it. Her daughter and son-in-law were out of town at the time.

Man’s Titanium Wedding Band Lost in the Surf, Recovered and Returned Sunset Beach NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Just after 3 p.m., I got the following text “Hey Jim, my name is Mike. I’m at Sunset Beach and just lost my wedding band in the surf. Any chance you can help me?” I called the number attached to the text and spoke with Mike. I asked him about what time and how deep he was when he lost it. He replied he had lost it about an hour prior and was 2 feet deep. A quick glance at the tide tables and he was just about high tide when he lost it. So, I told him I could be there in about 30-40 minutes. I figured by the time I got there; the tide would be out far enough that the ring should be calf deep. Mike agreed to have me come and I was out the door.

When I arrived at their rental house, Mike’s sister met me in the driveway. We walked down to the beach access, and she pointed Mike out to me. I met Mike and I got a few more answers and then he led me out in the surf where he thought he lost his ring. He took me farther out than I thought his ring would be, but that was ok, I’d rather search more than less area. I followed him back in, set a landmark on the beach to guide my lines the best I could, and started a grid search. On my second line coming back in towards shore, I hit a great signal and knew I found his ring. It took me 3 scoops to get his ring out of the sand in calf deep water. When I got his ring in the scoop, I shook the scoop under water to clear the sand out. I was positive I had his ring when I heard the clatter of his ring hitting the metal of the scoop. I pulled out his ring and started walking to the beach. I watched Mike as he got out of his beach chair and start walking towards me. He had a look of uncertainty on his face until I held his ring up and then his face turned to disbelief. He told me I was amazing and then said that took maybe 4 minutes. I’ll take that!

Mike – Thank you for calling and allowing me to help get your ring back where it belongs. Have a great rest of your vacation and a safe trip back home.

Jim
