Metal detecting Lost and found watch at the beach

  • from Miami (Florida, United States)

My name is Louis 305-608-1870 and I have a metal detecting service to help you find your lost jewelry.  It doesn’t matter if you lost it in the shallow waters at the beach, if it flew off into the sand, or somewhere in your backyard, I can help you find it.  In the photos above, he had lost this very rare and expensive watch that was given to him by his uncle at the beach The day before. It was in about 3 feet of water.  He thought he had lost it forever.  But I was able to find it even before he got there. He gave me the location on Google maps and I found it within a few minutes.  If you’ve lost something important, give me a call, text, or leave me a message and I’ll help you find your last item.  Check out my other blogs to see all my other successful recoveries.

Lost wedding ring in the sand, Holgate NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Seaside Park (New Jersey, United States)

Jersey shore ring finder ring finder south jersey Gregg called and asked if I would be able to help him find his wedding ring he had lost on the dune walkover in Holgate NJ. We were having some unusual swarming mosquitos, and when he was heading over to the ocean they bombarded him when he was almost at the top. When he tried to swat them away, unfortunately his wedding ring flew off his hand and most likely landed up on the dunes somewhere. We arranged to meet the next afternoon, knowing his ring would be safe in that location. I had read on one of the local Facebook pages how bad they were after days of heavy rain, but never experienced anything quite this like this. I pulled up in the driveway, and no sooner had my door opened,  I would venture to say, there were 20 or more in my truck. With that said, out came the sweatshirt and bug spray. I really hate mosquitos. Greg and I went over again exactly what had happened, as we walked quickly to the spot  he had marked with some little sticks and stuff. I turned on my machine, put on the headphones, and for whatever reason it would not quiet down. I asked him to stand facing exactly the way he was, and to demonstrate the swatting motion he used when the ring went flying. It looked like it probably could have flown up in the dune grass, but with the motion he showed me, my hunch was it went straight down. So, as these nuisance bugs are like a cloud around us, I moved back to where I turned on the machine, which was also the spot he was when the ring came off. And now I know why the machine was so noisy!!!!! Bingo!!!! It was sitting right on top of his ring. The more detective work one can do the better. The entire hunt only lasted about 10 minutes at best. Making memories again on LBI.

Lost Diamond Gold Wedding Ring Recovered In Baltimore, Maryland!

  • from Baltimore (Maryland, United States)
Contact:

I was just about to put my equipment away after an earlier recovery this week when I got a call about a lost wedding ring just outside of Baltimore city. The ring was lost while doing yardwork in some very dense ivy. Luckily my schedule was free in the afternoon, so we made plans to meet up immediately. Once I arrived, I was shown the area that the ring was believed to be in. It was a relatively small area approximately 10ft x 6ft, but as the owner stated in was very dense ivy and there was an AC unit, a metal handrail and a large bush in the area. All of these items add complexity to the search. Shortly after finding a few “trash” targets, I got a clean signal from my detector! Upon moving some ivy vines to the side, a glint of gold caught my eye!

Needless to say, the owner was delighted and relieved!

Two successful ring recoveries in less than a week! I hope you never need my services, but if you do, do not hesitate to contact me. And keep in mind, it’s not only jewelry I recover, but anything made of metal that you lost!

 

Lost mens ring IN A TRUCK recovered in LAS VEGAS

  • from Las Vegas (Nevada, United States)
Contact:

Received a call to look for a men’s ring that he lost in his truck. He was certain that it was IN the truck. I explained to his wife that a metal detector doesn’t work in an automobile, but I could still come out with some equipment that might help. I arrived and did an initial search. There weren’t many areas that the ring could fall in. Her husband and I unloosened the front seats so I had better views of any openings. There were only 6 areas in the carpet that a ring could fall into. The vents under the two front seats, under the gas peddle, and several other random cuts. I used my special camera and first searched both front seats. Since they were removed, I was able to a very thorough search of each seat (nothing).

I then used my camera to search under the gas peddle and then within each opening under the carpet. First in the vents (nothing). Then I searched the under the carpet by the vents. (BINGO). Took close to 3 hours for the search but we found it.

Don’t wait to call!

Nick was walking his dog along the beach in Cape May, New Jersey when his gold wedding band slipped off his finger and disappeared into the sand. It was only later that he realized his ring was missing and, sought my help to find it. I arrived about thirty minutes later and got some more details from Nick before starting the search. We initially focused on the area where he had rested with his dog, but the ring was nowhere to be found. Thus, I decided to expand our search along the route he had taken. Approximately 200 feet from our starting point and about an hour later my metal detector emitted a promising sound, there it was, Nick’s missing wedding band! A Great day in Cape May, NJ.

Gold Wedding Band Recovered in Elkridge, Maryland!

  • from Baltimore (Maryland, United States)
Contact:

I received a call last week from David stating that he lost his white gold wedding band while spreading seed and straw at a construction site he was working on in Elkridge Maryland. David was almost positive he could put me in the area that he lost it. Due to several days of consistent rain, we put off the search until yesterday (April, 4th 2024). Even though the rain subsided for the most part, the search area was a muddy pit to say the least! My boots were sinking into the mud every step I took. Just as I thought we were going to have to postpone the search until the area dried out, I got the hit on my metal detector!

David was surprised and relieved when I told him that my work is done here! He stared down at the ground in front of me for a few seconds and eventually saw is lost ring! At first glance it looked like trash amongst the mud, straw and pebbles! A quick wipe down and it was back where it belonged!

A few factors made this recovery successful. David was able to put me in the area where he was almost certain he lost his band. After realizing that a visual search and even an attempt to find it himself with a low-end detector did not produce results, he was quick to contact me through theringfinders.com.  It was a pleasure to return this wedding band to where it belongs!

2 Lost Rings on the Beach – Found!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

I’m starting out my 8th year of doing this and my first ring of the year actually turned out to be two rings!  Tammy and her husband Andrew brought their beautiful family down from Kentucky to enjoy Perdido. They had spent the day on the beach and as it started to be time to leave, Tammy panicked when she realized her wedding band and her engagement ring were no longer on her hand. They had a general idea where they had been on the beach but she wasn’t sure where the rings were.  She quickly did some googling and found my FB page, Pensacola Ring Finders. She texted me while my wife and I were at dinner and I quickly called her back. She was in luck that my wife who is my good luck charm was up for a trip to Perdido. We got there as quickly as possible, prepared with flashlights to search into the night. After talking with Tammy and Andrew there were three areas they had played volleyball and I decided to start in the one that Tammy had described first. I made one pass and then a second. On my third turn I got a good gold sound. I’ve learned that this could be a pull tab and not to sound the alarm quite yet so I gently scooped up the first signal. I needn’t have worried and quickly saw the diamonds from the wedding band in the scoop. I called Tammy over and said, “well here’s one!” 😃  The second one was still missing so I started back searching in the same general area. It wasn’t long until I heard a strong platinum tone. This time I couldn’t help but smile and I scooped down very carefully and saw the flash of the engagement ring in the edge of the sand. I let Tammy pull it out of the scoop and celebrate with her family as she returned it to its rightful place on her hand. I love doing this. I can’t wait to see who else I will be able to help this year. See you soon. 😉

Lost White Gold Wedding Ring at Aulani Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call from Lindsey who was on vacation from Reno, Nevada.  While throwing a football in waist deep water at Aulani Beach Ko Olina resort her husband Jason’s White Gold Wedding Ring flew off and into the shallow water of the lagoon and disappeared into the soft white sand.  She had been wearing his ring for safe keeping.  It was nearly knock-off from work so I told Lindsey I would run home grab my gear and head out to the resort before rush hour traffic.  When I arrived Lindsey came down to the beach and showed me the area to hunt.  There were many tourists on the beach but knowing what happened they graciously let me work.  Lindsey took her son down the beach to see what wildlife they might encounter and she was going to check back with me in a few moments.  I fired up the Manticore and began my grid search.  I just cleared this lagoon a few weeks ago so I didn’t get any targets until a nice solid No. 35 on the beast and in one scoop there was Jason’s White Gold Band in the scoop.  I could see Lindsey was finishing up her walk and Jason had joined her with their two daughters and son.  I yelled over”I got it”  and Lindsey said, Really?”  I showed them the ring and they assured me it was the one.  We took a few pics and I was able to explain the metal detector to the inquisitive children.  Always an opportunity to share the hobby!  Aloha to Jason, Lindsey and their children!

 

Valuable Heirloom Gold Ring Lost for 6 Weeks, Found in Compost Pile

  • from Paihia (New Zealand)

Maureen habitually took off her heirloom ring in the kitchen, a beautiful gold, diamond and emerald ring handed down from her Grandmother.
One day, she caught up the ring as she swept the peelings off the benchtop into the bin.

She didn’t realise until later when she went to collect the ring and noticed it was no longer in its place.

A frantic search yielded no sign of it, and with subsequent searches over the next few weeks she narrowed it down to either having been thrown out with the rubbish, or buried in the compost.

She gave me a call, obviously there was nothing I could do in the worst case scenario of it going out in the rubbish collection, however I could search the compost (I’ve searched through far worse than domestic compost in the past!).

A quick scan with the high powered machine gave a target deep in the bin, could be a ring, or could be foil.
Only one way to find out, roll up the sleeves and on with the nitrile gloves.

I had a rough idea of where it sat inside the compost and it was well down after six weeks of additional food scraps and lawn clippings.
A dense cloud of fruit flies instantly erupted out of the compost as I scooped most of the recent material away and investigated deeper with the handheld probe.

Wasn’t long before I had pinpointed the location and I dug further into the slimy mass, checking each handful until I caught a glimpse of gold in the ooze.

I lifted it out and showed a tearful Maureen.
A quick rinse under the garden tap and it shone brightly once again, no worse off for it’s little adventure and another story added to its hundred-plus history.

Two Rings Lost at Taipa Beach, Recovered and Returned Within Minutes

  • from Paihia (New Zealand)

A very quick recovery a little while ago…

Kaiah gave me a call asking if I was able to locate her two sentimental rings she had lost at Taipa, she was about to head out of the district and was very anxious to recover them before she left.
Having put them in her cap for safe keeping while she went for a swim, she subsequently forgot about them on her return and grabbed the hat with the rings still inside and headed back to the car.
She met me on site and showed me where she thought they might be and I started the search, retracing her route back towards the car.

As I expanded the search area I quickly located one ring, then the other a few metres away.
