Maria Was walking her two dogs at Royal Beach on Wednesday March 8th 2023. She stopped to take her boots off and dump the sand. She continued down the beach and discovered her ring was missing. She searched and had others search with no luck. After a web search Maria found me and we arranged a search. It only took 5 minutes and she had the ring back. I love my job.
Got a referral from Dave Oliver about this lost platinum ring that has been lost since July of 2022. I called up Mr. Singh and got the back story. Turns out his wife worked many hours making minimum wage saving every penny to buy this ring for her husband. It had great sentimental value to the Singh’s. They’ve been married for 17 years! So last July, he was mowing and got into some yellow jackets. In the process of running back towards the house and swatting bees his ring flew off in the yard, but he wasn’t sure where he lost because he didn’t realize it for over 3 hours! I started in that area and in about 20 mins, I get a signal and boom there it was about 2 inches down. After finding it and walking back to my truck to put my equipment away, I see him coming out into the garage. He asked me, “DID YOU FIND IT!” I said, “YES SIR” as I held up my finger with it on my hand. He broke down crying!! The wife comes out and she breaks down crying too. We sat and just talked about things for about another hour and one thing he said that is so true and makes you think. He was saying to his wife life moves fast, so fast that all you can do is take mental pictures as your life flies by. He told me he said to his wife that after everything in life is gone. The house, car, kids grown and moved out. The one thing he wanted to do was sit on the porch looking back at his life while feeling this ring on his hand. The ring she worked so hard to buy for him and their love for one another and their marriage together.

March 2023 a gentleman called asking for assistance in searching for his lost keys. He had been walking the night before and stumbled on the curb after crossing the street. He fell to the ground into some tall grass bushes that fortunately cushion his fall so he didn’t sustain any injuries. However after walking down the sidewalk a few moments later he checked his coat pocket and noticed his keys were no longer with him. The grass being very tall easily obscured the keys from view making his visual search unsuccessful.
When I met the gentleman on site we reconstructed the chain of events allowing me to identify the drop zone. After a few quick passes of my metal detector I was able to quickly recover his keys beneath a patch of tall grass. He was very much appreciative to have them back in his hands and quite shocked how quickly they were located after having spent quite some time searching two separate areas. I told him not to be disappointed on his efforts as this happens all the time. By working with an experienced Lost Item Recovery Specialist its not only our technology that we bring but our years of experience in having worked and studied so many of these lost item cases. With this experience we have developed a keen since in asking the correct investigative questions that tend to guide us many times to the best areas to focus our physical search efforts.
Before he went on his way two suggestions were offered to mitigate a future reoccurrence. I suggested he find a clip of any kind and secure the key ring to his clothing or pack. Also the by adding an Apple AirTag tracker to his key chain since he has an iPhone would be extremely beneficial. A very nice guy and I believe he will secure his keys moving forward. We are happy he was not injured in his fall and wish him all the best.

My current run of enquiries to find lost keys continues…
Nadège contacted me through the local Paihia Facebook group – a visitor of hers had lost keys in a paddock while working the previous day.
These lost keys were critical as they held, amongst others, the keys to his van and lockup.
On arrival, the “Long Grass” turned out to be rank overgrown pasture, and the search area covered an hours-worth of meandering track around the paddock and through two swampy streams.
I prepared myself for a prolonged mentally and physically difficult session.
Bob took me around and showed me where he had walked including where he had deviated to fix various things or pull out weeds. Identifying his original route was very difficult due to his previous attempts to retrace his steps looking for them at the time which gave me several tracks all the same age – and the cows that were also wandering around had added their own tracks, although they were mostly readily identified as such. I did a cursory scan as we walked, finding several piles of old metal stakes, wire, poles and pipes buried in the grass. Farms are almost as bad as suburbia for background noise.
We completed the circuit, and Bob left me to it. As the coil would be 1-2ft above the ground due to the rank growth, I wound the settings right up to maximise the chances of picking up the keys. Whilst this would ensure a strong signal (as long as the coil went over them), it meant the phones were chattering constantly with other background noise from the neighbors electric fences, long lost buried tools, wire, fence staples and so on. Each strong signal had to be checked through the grass, before moving on. Whilst this was quick, it was a very frequent occurrence, however if it wasn’t the intended target, it could stay there, whatever it was. I was on a mission.
Nearly three hours later, with the highest probability areas now cleared to a 90%+ detection rate, I was struggling to work out where they could be – Were they even in the paddock? Could Bob have left them somewhere back at the house?
Bob had walked along the short grass of the mown track each time he’d done the circuit looking for them, and indeed, I had walked it with him today- but a bunch of keys with a red tag would have been easily visible here.
I started back up the hill to focus on a few spots which had a lot of metal rubbish, absent-mindedly swinging the coil over the mown track as I went, when the headphones screamed!
In the middle of the track, was a cow pat with a solid signal! On closer inspection, I could see the blade of a key and the edge of a red plastic tag emerging from underneath. The cow must have dropped the pat on the dropped keys, between Bob losing them, and his coming back this way to look for them!
Hidden, in plain sight.
I dug them out, gave them a quick rinse in a nearby trough and headed back up the hill. Relieved that this search, one of the most difficult in a while, was now over.

Watch the SeattleRingHunter save a 2.4 Ct diamond wedding ring from imminent an imminent disaster!
Like share and subscribe…
March 2023 As I was traveling home from a previous search I received a call from Trina at 8:45 PM on a Friday evening. She explained she has just lost a 2.4 Ct diamond wedding ring the day before.
Last known location of ring was in her home bathroom washing it off so would sparkle more. She said I remember putting in on my finger as she was heading out of her home for event at the Seattle Rainier Club smack dab in the middle of Seattle down town.
Her husband drove her to the venue and let her out at curb side on 4th Ave. She entered the venue at 3:00 PM, late afternoon with plenty of daylight still shining. Few hours into the event she goes to the ladies restroom and takes a photo of her hair doo as she was a bit dissatisfied with her recent cut. Later after getting home realizing her wedding ring of over ten years is no longer on her finger. She reference the photo of her hair style and there is clearly no ring on her finger.
With out prompting she says I think I may have taken my ring off in the truck on the way to the venue to put lotion on my hands. I most likely set my ring on my leg. She had been wearing denim pants at the time. Often times ladies with dresses or skirts will place their wedding rings on the clothing between their legs as it makes a nice nesting spot but it all to often turns to devastation after realizing they got side tracked and forgot to collect them before getting up and leaving the vehicle. Trina tells me she believes this may have been the action for the loss as she has done this in the past! At that time she heard her ring hit the concrete and was able to pick it up off the ground.
I said it’s 50% either way in your truck or it went outside and landed on the ground. The probability after twenty-four hours in down town Seattle on the concrete is a scary thing to think about but keep the hope alive and may God’s hand of protection be upon your ring. As we wrapped up our conversation I asked a few clarifying questions. Did you look in your truck and she said yes but she was open to me searching the truck in the morning. Towards the end of the call she had already told me she had put out a high alert at the Seattle Rainier Club and they were checking for her the best they could. I asked her if she had checked the road side yet and she told me they had not. At this point I knew I had to turn back to downtown Seattle for a quick site inspection. I reassured her with all that we know we just don’t know unless we check and time is critical. I agreed to investigate the site and having already reviewed Google street images it didn’t look promising as it was 95% concrete and asphalt everywhere! I told heI would update her on my findings and if the ring was not found I would counsel her on how to post a proper Craig’s List lost item report and we could meet in the morning to search her truck.

Had a call out from Mike. He had been working beside the house on a cold snowy day. When it happened, he felt it go and heard it hit. His ring was gone and he just couldn’t figure out where. He could have waited until the snow melted, but having it back meant one less thing to be thinking about. So he called me and had it back in a very short time.
Lost your ring, other valuable jewelry, cellphone, keys, or other metal object…call or text Brian Carpenter at (814)244-2300 as soon as possible. I am a ring recovery specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. I received a text from David about his wedding ring that he had lost three years ago. David had been digging some rocks out of a wooded area behind his house and thought he had lost it there. He had rented a metal detector and said that he looks every winter/spring before things start growing, but to no avail. The trip would be about two hours one way and I was hoping that the ring finder who lived closer would be interested but told David that if the other person didn’t come out I would.
So I arrived at David’s and he showed me the search area. Pretty standard, front yard, back yard, garden, and just to throw in a degree of difficulty a wooded area that was pretty swampy. David thought for sure it was in the wooded area where he was digging the rocks. I checked the front yard…nothing…wooded area…nothing…garden….nothing…backyard….nothing. So I has checking a small strip next to the house. There was a lot of feedback and interference in just this little patch…I don’t know why, but I dropped my sensitivity to almost zero to get rid of the noise. Then I started walking backward and got a solid hit. From about an inch or two under the ground I found his wedding ring.
I called David and he came out and I gave him his ring back. He had the biggest smile and was very happy, not actually believing I found it. Then David told me that about 5 minutes before I called him he had just got done saying some prayers to St. Anthony. I usually do the same before I start any search knowing I can always use all the help I can get, so it might be safe to say I had a little divine intervention! I am glad David got his ring back and as always it is great to meet nice people and return what was lost.

Matt and Alicia enjoyed a day on the beach with their sons in Sea Isle City, NJ on Wednesday. They arrived around 3 PM and set their chairs up near the water’s edge. Before applying sunscreen to herself and her sons, Alicia took her 4 rings off and layed them on her chair. As the tide came in, the chairs had to be moved back a few times. They packed up around 7 PM and returned to their house. Approximately an hour later, Alicia realized her wedding rings were missing. Matt gave me a call and we planned to meet at low tide. I gridded the wet sand and did not get any signals, so I expanded the search up to the dry sand. After gridding the dry sand for some time, I finally got a signal and dug up one of the 3 bands. The next signal was another band, followed by the engagement ring that is extremely sentimental because the diamond is a family heirloom. Thankfully, the last band was nearby and recovered!
Sea Isle City NJ Ring Finder with metal detector finds 4 lost rings in the sand!
Steve is a Lawnmowing Contractor who, after finishing a job returned to his truck only to find his keys had vanished.
He throughly searched the property, and even lifted two storm drain covers and fished around in the ooze with a rake to try and find them, with no luck.
Reluctantly he arranged to have his truck and mowing gear towed home.
On phoning the Automobile Association the AA chap had seen my other recent key recovery from the side of the highway and recommended that Steve contact me, not having considered the metal detecting aspect of recoveries Steve was quickly on the phone.
Despite being an hour and a half away, I drove down straight from work to sort his troubles.
Steve took me through where he had been – and showed me the two drain gratings right where he had been fussing around the truck…
With some careful questions, I was able to put the drains right at the bottom of the list, although I had the waterproof remote camera and the nitrile gloves onboard, just in case!
I started the systematic grid of the garden, I could tell Steve was watching me with a funny look. The keys would have stood out easily on the manicured lawn, however the secret to success is to have a method, and stick to it rigidly. Nothing would be worse than having a no-find and starting to second guess where you may have missed them.
The formality of searching the back lawn was over very quickly. I started around the edges where shrubs overhung the grass, progressively crossing areas off and working my way towards the front yard – and those drains…
Then I got a good signal from under a bush on the other side of the path, I peered under and there they were.
Job done, the keys were exchanged for a good handshake and I headed off on the long trip home.
