Received a text from a very nice young lady asking for help. Her husband lost his white gold ring the night before while taking out the trash. He thought he lost it in the snow between the trash can and the mailbox when he took off his gloves. He was right! Not much fun hunting when its nine degrees, but finding the ring made it great.

Winter losses can feel hopeless, especially after losing a ring in the snow.
Ring Finders South Jersey recently received another call about a lost wedding band.
This was the second lost ring in the snow call this winter.
The homeowner was located in Marmora, New Jersey.
He believed the ring slipped off during backyard yard work.
Snow covered the ground and made searching extremely difficult.

Albert and his girl friend were finishing eating some fast food and as they were heading back to their hotel for the night Albert decided to throw a small piece of trash out of the sun roof and as he let fly the trash object he felt his heavy gold and diamond ring fly off of his finger as well and a slight click was heard. Immediately he pulled his truck to the side of the road and they began scanning the grass and roadside with the lights on their phones! It was 2:30am and after an hour or so of desperate searching they became very frustrated and upset…especially Albert because this was a very special and expensive ring. They called me the next day and I met them at the location and I searched high and low but could not locate his lost ring. I asked Albert if he had searched inside his truck and he assured me that he had. After an hour and a half I mentioned again that there was a good possibility that his ring could have fallen inside his truck somewhere. Albert had searched the inside but only quickly the night before and so another search was done in the daylight and to his great surprise there it was tucked down in a corner safe and sound! Albert was thrilled and so happy to have his lost ring back once again and was all smiles!
How can I help you?

Jessica called a bit upset because she had just lost her custom made diamond halo ring in her yard only 30 minutes before, and was not able to find it. I tried to see if it was possible to help over the phone, and she tried , but still was unable to find it. It was already dark, and because it was her yard I knew it wasn’t going anywhere, so we arranged to have me come and do a search the next day.
As I was driving up to her house, I did not realize how steep the properties were, so I began to really think about how I was going to do the search. I found the house, and Jessica took me to the back yard where she explained that she was removing the cover from one of her patio chairs, when with the flick of her finger the ring came off in the dark. She heard it ping on the brick deck, and it was gone. I did a visual check of the deck, and there were very few places the ring could have went. Then I looked over the deck railing, and there was about a 20 foot drop with one foot terraces at 3 foot intervals with different types of plants growing. I could see where Jessica had been looking on the first terrace because the tall decorative grass was flattened from her walking on it. Because the grass was so thick I made sure to search it diligently, but no ring. I then moved to the second terrace, and within a couple of minutes found her very pretty ring. I held it up for her which made her very happy. She then told me it was also her birthday, which made this recovery very special.

Meaghan contacted me wanting help in finding her daughter’s lost ring. Her daughter was playing with some friends in the grass of their yard when while making a spin, her ring flew off of her finger, and was lost in the thick grass. We arranged to meet, and I arrived at the time set.
When I arrived Meaghan met me at her gate, and took me to the back yard of her house. She showed me where the girls were playing when the loss occurred, and explained how they had searched extensively for the ring, but with no luck. I turned on my detector to begin the search, and she went in to the house telling me to let her know if I find the ring. I began my search, and after about 3 passes in the small area, I found the small ring. I went to the door, and let her know, to which she replied, “It hasn’t even been 5 minutes.” She was very happy to have it back, and it was nice to have another successful recovery.

Maria called me and asked if I could possibly help them find a lost diamond engagement ring that was thrown into a yard by their house. At first she mentioned that her son threw it but I later found out that her husband was the one who tossed it during an argument while they were out for a family stroll. He immediately realized the error of his actions and tried to locate his wife’s lost ring and even rented a metal detector…but in the end he was very frustrated with all the noise and sounds and his lack of knowledge in knowing how to use such a machine. I agreed to meet Maria and her husband the next day and after showing me the area it only took 10 minutes to uncover her lost ring. They were so so thankful and I had a lump in my throat as Maria gave me a big hug and beamed a smile that melted my heart. Thank you Maria for calling me and allowing me to be a blessing and encouragement to you and your husband! It truly was an honor and I thank God again for leading me to those He wants me to help along life’s way!

Alex contacted us after running out of options trying to find his wife’s lost engagement ring. To make things more interesting she had actually lost two rings. Alex was lucky enough to recover the wedding ring himself but the engagement ring was still missing and that one was not going to be easy to replace.
The rings were lost the evening before during a walk with the dogs that somehow turned into a game of fetch inside a snow covered tennis court. Because apparently tennis courts do not take the winter off they just change sports.
Between the dogs running full speed snow flying and a lot of movement the engagement ring quietly slipped off and disappeared into the snow. It was not until later that night that the missing ring was noticed and the panic set in.
I showed up the next day and was able to locate the engagement ring quickly before it decided to spend any more time chilling in its snowy hiding spot. The ring was returned to a very relieved and happy couple.
Another successful recovery a great story to tell and a friendly reminder that winter tennis and jewelry do not mix.
Received a text from a gentleman saying his wife had lost her white gold class ring after removing snow off her car. She shook her hands and the ring came flying off and lost.
We agree to a date/time. I get up there and begin my search about an hour later I found it. It was about 10-15 feet and opposite side of where they thought it went.

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.
