Lost Yellow Gold Wedding Band at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call from Josh who is on his Honeymoon from Portsmouth, England and staying at the Aulani Resort with his lovely wife Jaz.  On Sunday, while seated in the cool shallow waters of the lagoon, Josh felt his Yellow Gold Wedding Band slip off and disappear into the sand.  They hunted for the ring but with the surf up in the lagoon it was impossible to see.  While talking to the resort personnel they were told about my recovery service.  I told Josh I would head over as soon as I finished work.  When I arrived Josh & Jaz met me on the beach and showed me the area to hunt.  I found a few coins, a pull tab and an earring.  About a third of the way through the grid I got a nice tone near shore and after two scoops there was Josh’s shiny new Gold Wedding Ring in the scoop.  I let Josh & Jaz reach into the scoop to ensure the ring I found was his and of course it was.  Honeymoon saved and much deserved relief after four days.  Aloha to Josh & Jaz!

 

Lost Platinum Wedding Band at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a text from Amy who was on vacation from Murrieta, California and staying at the Marriott in Ko Olina.  She said her husband Ryan was swimming in the lagoon and while making an adjustment on a floatie his Platinum Wedding Band fell off and disappeared in the sandy bottom of the lagoon water the day before.  The water was only about waist deep but impossible to see.  Ryan assumed it was lost forever!  I called and told Amy I could be there that afternoon around 1:30.  She said they would be on the beach.  When I arrived Amy showed me the area to search and I fired up the Manticore for my grid search.  I started a little to the North and worked South.  When I was nearing the center of the grid going up onto the wet sand I got a nice loud tone and after one scoop there was Ryan’s Band in the scoop.  The rough waves actually threw the ring up onto the shoreline.  I motioned towards Amy and she was in disbelief I think that the ring was found so quickly.  Also, Ryan was just making his way down to the beach and Amy was able to put the ring back on his finger.  What a wonderful family and I was thankful to be able to save the vacation.  Aloha to Ryan, Amy & Family!

Lost Rings and Diamond Necklace found in Santa Barbara Home

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)

If you have a lost ring in Santa Barbara don’t hesitate to call or text Dave The Ring Finder at 805-290-5009 so he can help you recover your ring!

I got a text from a person who asked to remain anonymous if I could help her find some jewelry she had misplaced in her home. I advised her that my equipment would be of no help due to the fact that there is just so much metal in homes as well as the ongoing EMF but we agreed that I could use my skills as a long time searcher to help her.

The missing jewelry consisted of 3 rings and a diamond necklace. The gold band was her husbands and the white gold was her wedding ring and the jade ring was a sentimental gift given to her by her husband years ago. The necklace included her diamond from her engagement ring. They were all safely away in a small decorative box that had sat in her living room for years until just recently she noticed it was gone.

To say this was a sentimental box of jewelry would be an understatement as this was part of the history of her life and marriage and she was absolutely distraught that it had disappeared. She was sure she had looked everywhere and now it was gone.

We met and I sat with her at the kitchen table and I had her list out all the places the box could be in the house on a piece of paper and that we would search each place completely and then cross it off the list once we felt sure it wasn’t there. I do this with clients because people often get upset and stressed and don’t always think clearly when they lose things that are so important and valuable to them. The kitchen table is probably the most relaxed place in the home so that is where I advise them to sit and put their list together.

As we were going through the list one of the places was the large bookshelf in the living room. After looking at the shelf we noticed that it was deeper and darker in the back so we decided a more thorough search was necessary and wouldn’t you know it, in the far back on top of a row of books was a small, neatly camouflaged wooded box, the same one that contained her jewelry! Needless to say there was joy in that room as her precious rings and diamond were found!

Finding rings that are lost is like detective work. Sometimes it helps to take notes, write everything down and get a second set of eyes on a situation so you can see clearly. This was certainly the situation here and if you find yourself in a place like this call or text Dave The Ring Finder at 805-290-5009 and we can put together a plan to recover your lost rings and jewelry.

Ring Lost at Whale Bay, Matapouri – Found in the Sea.

  • from Paihia (New Zealand)

Natalie and her partner were enjoying the summer at one of Northland’s secrets — Whale Bay, near Matapouri. Waist-deep in the water, they were playing volleyball when she saw her treasured ring fly off her finger as she hit the ball.

The first ring her partner gave her, gold and aquamarine, it was irreplaceable due to the significance it carried.

They spent some time with masks and snorkels looking for it, but by then, it had already been covered by the light and mobile, broken-shell sand.

She posted a plea in the local Facebook groups, and my reputation for success led people to recommend me.

We met in the car park and followed the track down through the bush to the bay. As we passed each window in the trees, the beach came into view, and you could see why it was one of the most popular local spots.

On reaching the sand, we went over the backstory of the what’s and where’s, and I began the search pattern.

Once the intertidal sand was cleared, I moved into the water. The sand was deep and soft where it was being actively pulled down from the beach, but after a few more minutes, I was wading ashore with a smile.

Natalie started walking toward me, her expression uncertain — and I wondered if she thought I had given up. Then I held out the sand scoop to her, and there it was.
Her precious ring, safely sitting at the bottom.

Her prompt call to a ring finder with 37 years of experience and a solid success rate gave her the best possible chance of recovering her ring.
And all for less than the cost and uncertainty of hiring a DIY metal detector.

Platinum Wedding Band Recovered by Rob Ellis, Arlington, VA.

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)

Paul was raking leaves in his backyard when he realized his platinum wedding ring was missing.

for recovery book post

Paul’s Ring

When I arrived at his home, he showed me exactly where he was raking and gathering leaves. He had searched very carefully in the area and kept the leaves for me to search with my detector.

It can be very frustrating for people to visually search for a ring and not find it. After interviewing Paul, I quickly found his ring with my Equinox 900 detector. Both of us had walked over the area earlier and missed seeing the ring, which was sitting in the thin grass. I asked Paul to come over so he could see the location and have the pleasure of retrieving his wedding band.

 

Don’t give up. Many of my clients have bought, borrowed, or rented a metal detector before calling me. Just because someone has a tool, it doesn’t mean they know how to use it. I use state of the art equipment, and I have thousands of hours of experience searching on land and underwater. If you have tried using a detector without success, please text/call to see if I can help.

For my fellow detectorists. Target IDs of this 8.6 gram platinum ring: Deus 2=56, Equinox 800=9-10, Equinox 900=21.

I was so happy to have found Paul’s ring. Unfortunately, there is no smile photo.For smile pic?

Lost – Ladies Gold Diamond Engagement Ring, Edgewater, F

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

Late on Friday evening, I received a message on Facebook from Jodi. She had read my post about finding a lost ring and was hoping I could help her locate one she had lost back in October. I told her I’d give her a call first thing the next day.

When I spoke with Jodi the following morning, she explained that she had been wearing her engagement ring on a chain while helping a friend clean up after Hurricane Milton. At some point, she noticed the chain had broken, and the ring was gone. We made plans to meet at noon to begin the search.

As I drove toward Edgewater, I offered a quick prayer for guidance. Upon arriving, I met Jodi and Henrietta, the owner of the property. They showed me the area where they had been working. Since they’d been dragging brush and debris across a large section of the property, the ring could have ended up anywhere.

I fired up my Minelab Manticore and started scanning. My first hit was just a piece of yard debris, but the next signal sounded promising—a much more gold-like tone. After digging just a few inches into the soil, I uncovered something sparkling: the missing ring! The entire search had taken only two minutes.

Jodi was overjoyed, tears in her eyes as she hugged the ring close. Henrietta was equally thrilled to see her friend’s treasured possession returned.

2 Lost Gold Rings Found Inside House in Sterling Heights Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

FIND No. 200…….

……FAB-YULE-US !!……

…..Got a text from Marilyn just after Christmas 2024 stating her 2 gold rings went missing during her family’s celebrations. Hers was white gold w/ diamonds and her deceased mom’s ring is yellow gold w/ rubies. Marilyn remembered taking them off together but then couldn’t find them the next day. With lots going on Christmas day thinking back she was able to narrow the area in the house she felt was an area of interest. Mentioning she checked many locations I suggested we check again. Methodically going thru some items with my metal detector, a good signal sounded out. The rings appeared to have fallen into some bins and got stuck. Marilyn gasped in amazement as the rings appeared! Now with New Year here and the chiming of bells, She and her family will literally be ringing in the new year!

Spring Lake NJ, Necklace/Pendant lost in the sand, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

How to find ring with metal detector

Mitchell called about finding his lost chain and pendant, which had gone missing on a busy beach two days earlier. I reassured him that it might still be there and suggested we give it a shot. We agreed to meet by the closest road to where he had set up his chair that day.

I arrived a bit early and decided to start searching. The area was large, and I mostly found trash—usually a bad sign, indicating that another detector might have already combed the area. Something didn’t feel right, though, so I went back to review my notes. Mitchell had mentioned being closest to the middle chair, but when I first arrived, I only saw two chairs. Now that some swimmers had left, a third chair was visible, and everything clicked into place—I had been searching in the wrong spot.

This was a reminder of why it’s crucial for the person who lost the item to be there, and arriving early had thrown me off. Just as I realized this and headed to the correct location, I saw another detectorist pass by the spot where Mitchell believed his necklace should be. Fortunately, Mitchell had already arrived and confirmed the location, so we quickly began the search.

Within moments, I found his necklace safely in my scoop. Mitchell could hardly believe it; the necklace was a cherished family heirloom with immense sentimental value, and he had thought it was lost forever.
