Lost 2 White Gold Rings Bridal Set w/ Diamonds in the Snow Found in Taylor Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

The Tip of the Iceberg……

Presented itself when a more than predicted snowfall drop Wednesday afternoon in southeast Michigan took everyone by surprise, especially newly married Jacob and his wife. While dodging sleet as they walked into the shopping mall Jacob tripped and fell onto the snow. As his wife helped him back on his feet, she dusted him off but after they got into the store, she noticed her ring was missing. They put on ice what they came for and rushed back outside to the snow-covered area of the fall. The sound of snowplow blades on the pavement had them frozen in fear but Jacob had ice in his veins and tried to find the ring by moving some snow around, but that cut no ice. Jake called his dad to take his wife home, and I asked Jacob on the phone if he could remain there and try to keep the plows at bay until I arrived. That seemed to work, as the area was unscraped when I started to search with my MXT metal detector. Scanning over the small piles of snow a familiar signal came thru and moving the veil of snow above the signal revealed what was really hiding beneath the tip of the iceberg…..the missing ring! Overwhelmed with excitement from getting beyond the surface of the lost ring, Jacob feels this is the beginning of a great year and many more for him and his wife, and that’s the icing on the cake!

Lost gold chain with pendant found Vanderbilt beach naples Florida

  • from Marco Island (Florida, United States)

While swimming with his father Jason suddenly realized his gold chain was no longer around his neck.  A frantic search ensued, beachgoers coming to the rescue with masks and snorkels and toes ‘a searching.  A local resident walking the beach saw the commotion and emphatically suggesting better “call Mark.”  Well the rest is history.  Found the chain with pendant in rough surf two days later and just before dark.   It’s only lost until you call!!! Prayers answered 🙏🏻🥰🎉

How to find a lost ring in the Snow in Barrie, Ont.

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

Following an early snowfall in Barrie, I was contacted by Alana. She had lost her engagement ring outside of her 2nd story condo, following the 1st big snow of the season. Once I reached site, I reviewed the situation & using my “Detecting Detective” skills, I was able to locate the ring in under 5 minutes. Urgency was required, as the snowplow was waiting to clear the snow.

She was SO happy! Another successful ring find, in the snow!

Alana said “I lost my engagement ring in the snow,  during the middle of the night and was so distraught. I messaged Paul in the morning and he came that day. Not only did he find the ring within 5 minutes but he was also very kind and positive the entire time. It was worth every dollar and I would 100% recommend him, without his service my engagement ring would’ve been lost forever. ”

Lost Gold Ring in the Snow Found in Washington Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Decking his halls with ornaments bright

Steve lost his gold ring in the snow one night

I drove many miles arrived with bells on

Santa came early to search the lawn

Over cold ground like old prophesy

I presented a gift of gold like the Magi

Steve’s face lit up like a Christmas tree

Christmas had come early bringing untold glee

Smoky Mountain Ring Recovery

  • from Knoxville (Tennessee, United States)

A Smoky Mountain Ring Recovery: Kayleigh’s Story

Kayleigh had traveled to a cozy cabin tucked away in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee to celebrate her friend Haley’s birthday. With fresh mountain air, scenic views, and a balcony overlooking the trees below, it was the perfect setting for a weekend getaway.

But during the celebration, the unexpected happened.

While enjoying time on the cabin balcony, Kayleigh’s ring slipped off and disappeared into the unknown below. Anyone who has lost something irreplaceable knows the sinking feeling that follows. The excitement of the trip was quickly replaced with worry and disappointment.

Determined not to give up, the group made a trip to a local sporting goods store and purchased a metal detector, hoping to find the ring themselves. They searched… and searched… but without experience or the right equipment, their efforts came up empty.

That’s when Kayleigh’s mom stepped in.

Using ChatGPT, she searched for a professional ring-finding metal detectorist and was led to me through www.theringfinders.com. She reached out, explained the situation, and asked if I could help.

I couldn’t respond right away due to work but I contacted the VRBO owner and got his permission to come out the very next day.

The next day I packed my gear and made the drive—about 1 hour and 35 minutes—into the Smoky Mountains. Once on site, I used the detailed photos of the area to estimate where the ring was lost, I assessed the terrain below the balcony, and got to work.

About 20 minutes later, my detector gave the signal we were hoping for.

There it was—Kayleigh’s ring, recovered from the ground below the cabin. Another lost ring found and another story with a happy ending.

Now, with the ring safely in hand, I drove nearly two hours to meet Kayleigh’s husband so the ring can be returned where it belongs—back with its owner, along with the memories and meaning it carries.

This is why I do what I do.

Rings aren’t just jewelry. They’re symbols of love, commitment, and life’s most important moments. Being able to reunite someone with something that meaningful never gets old.

If you’ve lost a ring—whether in the mountains, a yard, a beach, or anywhere else—don’t give up hope. Sometimes all it takes is the right equipment, experience, and a little persistence.

Lost Gold Stud Earring w/Diamond Found in Toledo Ohio

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Just Bring It!….

Exclaimed Mckenzie as she and a friend’s play fighting inside found itself outside on the front lawn. Things got more interesting as the skirmish turned into a wrestle fest landing Mckenzie pinned to the ground. Now with darkness upon them they called a timeout, brushed themselves off and went back into the house where Mckenzie noticed her earring missing. The next day I started a grid search and within a few minutes the earring stud revealed itself! A winning move, I feel like a champ! She said!… even tho I lost the smackdown, the only pinning I’m interested in now is pinning the earring back in my ear!

A Sparkle in the Snow: The Lost Ring Reunion. Another recovery in the books.

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)
It was one of those crisp autumn afternoons that hinted at winter’s arrival, the kind where the air carries a bite and the leaves crunch underfoot like nature’s confetti. I was wrapping up my day when my phone buzzed with a text from a client in distress. “Lost my wedding ring while blowing leaves in the backyard,” it read. “Got your name from Darren Gray—another Ringfinder. Can you help?” My heart warmed at the mention of Darren. He’s a legend in our community, always generous with passing on leads when he’s swamped or out of range. I’ve been grateful for those opportunities more times than I can count; they remind me how connected we all are in this quirky world of treasure hunting.I texted back that I’d be there in about an hour, grabbed my gear—metal detector, pin-pointer, headlamp, and a few extras—and hit the road. You learn quick in this line of work: better to be overprepared than caught short. A search could wrap up in minutes or stretch into hours, and with the sun dipping earlier these days, I wasn’t taking chances.When I arrived, the client was waiting eagerly by the gate, bundled against the chill. Their backyard was a picturesque challenge: a massive oak tree loomed overhead, its branches casting long shadows like a guardian testing my resolve. And to add to the fun, a light snowfall from the night before had blanketed everything in a pristine white layer, turning the yard into a hidden puzzle. “It happened right around here,” they said, pointing to a spot piled with leaves and snow. We chatted a bit about the ring’s sentimental value—years of love and memories wrapped in that simple band—and I could sense the mix of hope and worry in their voice.I flipped on my headlamp as the light faded, and we got to work. The detector beeped almost immediately on a couple of targets—false alarms, just bits of foil or nails teasing us. Undeterred, I circled back to the starting area, methodically sweeping the ground. Then, another signal: strong and steady. I knelt down, pulled out my pin-pointer, and gently brushed aside a fluff of snow. There, catching the beam of my light like a wink from fate, was a glint of white gold sparkle.“There it is!” I exclaimed, and in that instant, the client’s face lit up with a sound that’s music to any Ringfinder’s ears—a half-gasp of surprise melting into pure relief. We both laughed, the tension evaporating into the chilly air. The whole search? Just ten minutes. Those quick wins never get old; they’re like little gifts from the universe, reminding you why you do this. Sometimes recoveries are marathons, but when a sprint like this comes along, you savor it. As I handed over the ring, the client shook my hand warmly, their gratitude shining brighter than the band itself. “You have no idea what this means,” they said. And in that moment, I did—because helping people reclaim pieces of their story is what makes days like this truly magical. Thanks again to Darren for the pass; it’s folks like him that keep the good vibes circulating. Another happy ending in the books, proving that even under snow and shadows, lost things have a way of finding their way home.
 

Lost White Gold Journey Pendant w/ Diamonds Found in Madison Heights Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

A Journey Under the Deck…

..was not what Kristina had planned for her journey pendant when it snapped off her chain as her dog jumped up on her. She looked around and found her cross pendant that was with it and thought her journey pendant wasn’t too far. The pendant was sentimental and a gift from her mom. The straight design of it has been a talisman through life in her past to help overcome any obstacle including where the pendant may be in the present time. I had just enough space under the deck to scan with my metal detector. I got a faint signal and was able to reach thru the leaves and debris. Feeling the shape of the pendant at my fingertips, I slowly drew my arm back from under the deck. Recovering the pendant brought tears to her eyes. Although the journey had an unexpected twist, staying hopeful was her mindset and served as a reminder that any future journeys may not be as straight as expected.
