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

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began when I got a call from Tiare who lives on Oahu and was staying at the Aulani Resort.  She said the evening before her husband Jesse while playing with his children in the shallow waters of the lagoon he noticed when he got back to the room his yellow gold wedding band was gone.  He went back to the beach and looked and it was hopelessly gone.  Even snorkeling the area is really impossible.  The sand is so soft the heavy gold ring melts into it and disappears.  I told Tiare I was getting ready to go to church and when it was complete I’d grab my gear and come down to the lagoon to hunt.  When I arrived I texted Tiare & Jesse and said I would be in the water hunting the area in the photo they sent.  I immediately got a high tone that was a dime then a low tone that was a child’s play ring.  Then the next ten minutes was silent.  I was on the last leg of the between the buoys hunt when I got a nice 47-50 on the Manticore and finally after three scoops there was a yellow gold ring in the scoop.  Tiare was finally walking down to the beach and she waved at me.  When she got there I asked to see Jesse’s ring again and it was a match.  I showed her the ring and she said, “No you didn’t”  Yep!  I found it in the time it took her to get ready & come dow to the beach.  She took the ring and ran back to give Jesse the good news and they both came down the beach to thank me for the recovery.  A few hugs & handshakes and another vacation saved!  Aloha to Tiare & Jesse!

Steve’s Emergency Metal Detecting Service For You if you lost a ring or something precious to you. Please don’t wait until tomorrow, time will work against you, please CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, CALL NOW!  310-953-5268

Emilia contacted me after losing her diamond engagement ring in the sand at the beach. She had taken it off, and put it in her glasses case to secure it while she rented a stand up paddle board to enjoy the day on the water. Sometime either before she went paddling, or when she got back the ring had come out of the case, getting lost in the sand. I let her know I could come immediately to search for her, so I was on my way right after.

When I got to the beach she was still at the rental tent, and she told me the circumstances of the loss. She then outlined the area she believed the loss could have occurred, so I got ready for the search. We moved anything metal out of the search area so as not to interfere with the detector, and I began. I think I swung no more than 4 times when I got a real nice low tone in the head phones, I dug, and a very beautiful ring was in the scoop. I held it up, and a very happy Emilia came over to make the identification. So happy to make people happy!

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible!

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

 

 

Nick called me requesting my service to locate his late grandmother’s gold cross which he has worn round his neck ever since she passed away. He was playing a vollyball  when the ball hit him in the chest and snagged the cross off his chain. He did not realize he had lost the cross until he got home.

In the morning Nick called and told me what had happend and the only place the cross could be was either in court #1 or court # 2. The cross was found between #1 and #2. It only took a few minutes to reunite the cross with Nick.

Thank you Nick for checking me on the  “the ringfinders” website and giving me a call.

Lady’s White Gold Wedding Ring Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Ocean Isle Beach NC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

On Saturday night, August 31st at about 11:15 pm I received the following text, “Hi! I lost my wedding band today at ocean isle. Can you help tomorrow?” I responded with the normal questions, what time it was lost, where – soft sand or in the ocean, and if in the ocean how deep she was? She responded that it was in the dry sand. At that point I called her to make sure I had all the details and set up a time for the next morning for a search. This is when she told me that both her wedding band and engagement ring were stuck in a pouch on the beach chair. When she got back to the rental is when she realized the wedding ring was missing.

This morning, Sunday, I arrived at the address she gave me and met her in the driveway. She led me out to the area they had been sitting and I started a north/south grid search, extending the search area out on all four sides. She had told me when I started the search it was a white gold ring, so I knew I was looking for a signal between 6-8 on the machine. After completing the search area with no luck, I decided to start an east/west grid search. Now I’d be covering the area between where she was sitting and going across the beach towards the beach access point. On my second pass of the new grid, I got a solid 7 on the machine. Bingo. I dug out a scoop of sand and laid it on the beach, smoothing it out with my foot. I immediately saw her ring, reached down and picked it up. I held it up for her to see and she couldn’t believe it. She was so grateful and trying to hold back the tears of relief. This search ended with one happy young lady, a found ring and a hug.

Jessica – Thank you for allowing me to help find your lost treasure. Enjoy your last day of vacation and have a safe trip home.

Jim

Lost Property Markers Found in Trenton Michigan

On The Fence……

…Was the feeling that came over Walt as the old privacy fence was removed and a new vinyl one was soon to be installed. He was in agreement with the neighbor about it but still was curious where the property line was. After chatting I agreed to locate the property irons and wanted the neighbor’s approval as well. With that granted I proceeded to examine the old survey drawing for the lot dimensions. On site I turned on my Tesoro Sidewinder metal detector and began scanning. Near the front sidewalk I got a loud signal. Probing with a surveyors pin I felt it scratch the side of a metal object. Digging in and flipping the grass plug revealed the property iron! At the rear of the lot the old property iron was exposed but bent sideways from tree growth near it making it inaccurate to use. Moving to the opposite corner the drawing indicated the property iron was set years ago. Finding that one enabled me to pull a tape measure the correct lot width towards the bent property pin to see where the line really was where the fence was going. By this time the neighbor came out to see how things were going. We all agreed that the new fence was not going to encroach onto Walt’s property. To celebrate, as Walt brought out some beers I said, now that’s a perfect way to mend the fence with the neighbor!……Cheers!

Lost and found diamond ring at Eels Lake Ontario

Contact:

Today’s excursion took me to Eels lake near Apsley, just south of Bancroft. Received a call from Shayne last week about his girlfriend Lisa loosing her diamond ring while vacationing at a campground. While on the floating dock, Shayne threw Lisa into the water and then both watched in horror as the ring flew off her finger and into the lake. The issues were; the floating dock moves quite a bit from its anchor point pending on wind direction, dense weed bed and about one foot of silt under the weed bed (typical for lake conditions in the area).  The good news is that it was in only ten feet of water and they both saw the ring go in. After a two hour search, constantly ripping weeds off my detector coil, I finally heard that sweet gold tone, amongst other metal signals. After coming up about four feet from the bottom, due to zero visibility due to silty conditions, I saw and confirmed that I had the right ring. Lisa was so happy to be reunited with her grandmother’s ring, whom has passed since she’d given it to her. Another happy ending. Life is good.

The Feather that Pointed to Treasure……

….Most treasure hunters at least once in their lifetime have come across treasure signs and symbols while researching a particular treasure lead or legend. Some spend most of their lives trying to decipher, decode and chase down the clues hoping to find the motherlode. When Travis lost his ring in the water, he was hoping it wouldn’t take a lifetime to find it. Entering the lake the water felt nice and cool and with the scent of barbecue grills and smoked meats in the air I paused to take in the moment of another summer that’s gone by too fast. On the shore was Travis’ wife Margherita who was pointing to us the area she remembers Travis being in when the ring came off. Out in about 5 feet of water I got a few junk targets, but as Margherita pointed more to the left a huge loud signal came thru my detector’s headphones. Descending under for a minute my pin pointer buzzed on a target and moving some sand aside I saw his ring. Back on the surface I had a mad look on my face and said all I’m picking up is junk, but then this showed up! Travis looked at his ring in amazement and couldn’t believe it was found! He held it in the air and Margherita knew we had found it! Back on shore Margherita walked towards us with a large feather. I said to her that I didn’t have any ink for the quill pen if you’re writing me a check! They both laughed and she said that the feather was found behind her and was pointing towards where the ring was found and mentioned that whenever she came across a feather in life, good things always happened! I said that’s one heck of a treasure sign and I’ll go get that ink!

Yarmouth, MA. Gold Celtic Cross Lost, Found and Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

August 29, 2024

Almost five weeks ago, Caeleigh was enjoying a day on the beach. She was wearing a very sentimental Celtic cross that her parents had bestowed upon her on the day of her first confirmation.

I am not positive on just how the chain with the cross became separated and lost in the fine sand.

Today I was out testing a new detecting scoop grip and found only pull tabs and a screw. About to give up for the day, I got out of the water and headed to my car. Gerry had been watching me and was inquisitive about my detector and could find a hearing aid. Yes it is possible, but unlikely unless the detector is “tuned” to react to the hearing aid’s metallic characteristics. When our conversation was about over and I was about to start searching for the hearing aid, Katie approached and asked the same question ecept her item of interest was a gold Celtic cross. The answer was the same.

The first area I covered was for the hearing aid. The detector I had been using in the water was just too sensitive over the 18 inch sweep to locate the hearing aid, but I tried. I moved over to the area of the cross and chain. I knew the cross could be located, but the fine chain would be very difficult. I was correct, the cross was retrieved from the sand with no problem

My second detector in the car did not have programming capabilities. One of my detectors at home would fit the needs perfectly. So I left the beach to get my best detector for the items I was searching for, a hearing aid and a gold chain in salty beach sand environment. I returned an hour later to complete the search. At the beach I was in luck with the adjustments I made to the third detector, it would react equally well to either object with the same settings.

As good as the detector that I chose for the situation and adjusting it for the objects to find, I did not find either one. There are possibilities that; either object may have been found, the beach cleaning rake buried them beyond my detector’s depth range, or I just missed detecting them. Also, the hearing aid may have been lost elsewhere.

I had talked to all involved and took pictures of Caeleigh and her cross before going home to get the third detector just in case what I feared happened, which it did. The active search for the chain and hearing aid have ended for now, but the information will be retained per chance I do find either one at a later date or hearing of another detectorist finding one of the still missing belongings.

Eastham, MA, RingFinder Finds and Returns Lost Wedding Ring to Military Member

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

August 29, 2024

Mike and I just did not connect on the game of phone tag last night. This morning we did. Mike was in desperate need of help for a solution of how to find his sister’s wedding ring that was lost in the sand. The loss happened when a towel was forcefully removed from a beach bag bringing the ring out with it and a few other items. All but the ring had been found.

Within an hour I was at the beach getting a run down on where I should be looking for the ring. I could see a gallant effort had taken place before I arrived at the beach. There was a 5X10 area of the sand that had been sifted to a depth of about 2 inches. That is where the ring should be. So, I started a search pattern parallel to the water’s edge and about 20 feet long as marked by two inverted red beach buckets. Ten passes and no ring, time to turn and cover the area perpendicular to the rows I had already made. It was on my third perpendicular pass between the second and third parallel pass that I had a great sounding tone that I was excited about. Yes, a shallow scoop and the signal producing object was in my scoop. It was the golden wedding band.

Time for pictures, hugs, and kind words. Another vacationing couple on Cape Cod would go home with everything they came with. Eliza and Sam, both active serving military members, are a fantastic couple that I enjoyed talking with and hearing of their military service and sharing some of mine with them. Mike stayed in the background but could not leave without my thanks for reaching out to a RingFinder for help doing what we do best, ending a stressful situation with a picture perfect for the Book of Smiles.

Oh, I will not forget what I and my wife left the beach with, a box of Cape Cod Treats of outstanding donuts. How they knew my favorite is the glaze covered cake donut and my wife’s, a chocolate covered donut with sprinkles I will never know. My first such gift. Thank you all.

Gold Ring Lost in Sand at Will Rogers State Beach…Found and Happily Returned.

It was just after 11:00 PM when Carlos contacted me. He had been at the beach earlier in the day. His wife had taken off her ring for safekeeping, but when they gathered their belongings, the ring was forgotten, and lost in the sand. It was too late when they realized what happened; it was gone. He said that he could meet me the next day for a search, but I encouraged a search that night knowing the tenacity of the beach cleaners in that area. He agreed, but told be he was not going to able to meet me there for the search. He sent me all of the necessary information I needed in order to conduct a good search for him, and I was on my way.

When I got to the area I knew there was not going to be the ability to park close at that time of the night, so I had to walk about 1 1/2 miles in the dark of night to the search area, getting there about 12:00 AM. I sent Carlos a text to let him know I arrived, and then began my search. I worked in the area he gave, working a tight grid to insure every inch of sand was covered, and didn’t find much. I kept to my grid, continuing pass after pass with nothing. About 20 minutes in total darkness (I don’t use lights unless absolutely necessary), I got the good signal, dug, and shook the sand out of the scoop. There in the bottom was a very small gold ring. It looked like what he had described, but it was pretty small, so I sent a picture, and Carlos affirmed it was the one. It was about 12:30 AM, and I had a long walk back to the car. I let him know that I would contact him the next day for a return. We got together the next day, and he told me about the sentimentality of the ring, and I understood how it meant so much to them. A little adventure lead to a bunch of happiness.

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible! I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again. I search, Beverly Hills, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Northridge, Pasadena, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Seal Beach, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Torrance, Venice Beach, Zuma Beach, and all parks, yards, gardens, and ponds (to 5 foot depths) in all of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County, Southern California, and Ventura County.
