Was called out to a lake near Traverse City to find 2 rings lost while setting up a swim area for the season. Water was deeper than my usual searches but was able to find both rings in the end using a underwater detector and mask and snorkel. Took some time but wasn’t going to give up. Very happy I was able to help, and thank you for the call!
A relaxing beach day in North Wildwood, NJ, nearly ended with heartbreak when Maryann lost her sentimental ring in the sand.
While enjoying time on the beach, Maryann applied sunscreen and briefly placed her treasured ring on her lap. Like many beachgoers, she became distracted by the moment. After some time, her group moved their chairs to a different spot along the beach.
Unfortunately, the ring was forgotten.
When Maryann later realized her cherished ring was missing, she and her family searched the area without success. They knew the odds of finding a small ring in the sand were slim. Thankfully, they also knew exactly who to call.
Ring recovery specialist John Favano of Ring Finders South Jersey received the call and responded immediately. Time is critical during beach ring recoveries, especially in busy shoreline areas where foot traffic can quickly bury or move lost jewelry.
Within minutes, John arrived on the scene in North Wildwood and began the search using professional metal detecting equipment. Maryann explained where she had been sitting and described the events leading up to the loss.
After carefully scanning the area, the search produced a signal almost immediately.
Just a few swings later, the missing ring was sitting safely inside John’s scoop.
The emotional relief on Maryann’s face was unforgettable. What began as a stressful loss quickly became a joyful reunion. Moments like these are why Ring Finders South Jersey is dedicated to helping families recover valuable and sentimental items.

Got a text from Jerry asking if I could find a lost ring in some ivy, I asked is it poison ivy? He quickly said no just regular ivy. Seems that his wife Terri was throwing yard debris down the embankment next to a huge patch of ivy and her ring came off. The ring is 20 years old and has been with the couple as they have clung to each other, climbed to success together and regrown over time, similar to ivy. I set up my MXT metal detector and starter to scan a grid pattern and got a few pieces of foil. Nearing mid-slope, I got a nice signal in the range where silver would be identified of the metal detector meter. Reaching thru some ivy I separated a few leaves and saw Terri’s ring sitting on a deep green ivy leaf. Lifting it up Jerry saw it and started moving quickly towards me almost falling headfirst down the embankment. Regaining his footing, Terri walked out onto the deck to see what all the excitement was about and couldn’t believe her ring was found! Jerry rushed over to place it on her finger and as she started jumping up and down Jerry said thank Jonathan not me! Now with all smiles on deck Jerry and Terri can return to the “ivy league” of their own!

Four weeks into a gardening project the loss of her husbands ring while laying sod kept coming up, the drive up the driveway also a constant reminder of the loss. Coincidentally or by sheer divine appointment Yessenia sent us a text requesting help. The rest is history, our motto being “it’s only lost until you call.” After over three hours under the hot humid Florida sun the ring was successfully located about 6 inches down under a sod strip. That’s where having the best MineLab equipment really pays dividends, having the knowhow and right tool for the job. Thanks be to God, their story continues, the wedding band back on the finger where it belongs. 🙌💍🎉
