Man’s Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Pawley’s Island SC

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

On Friday, July 10, 2026, at 5:40 p.m. I received a voice mail saying, “Hi, my name is Park. I am staying on Pawley’s Island and lost a wedding band. I found this number as a ring finder.” I was able to get the call before he hung up and found out additional details. He told me that he had taken the ring off to apply suntan lotion before going out on the beach. He also stated that he took his ring off and set it on the banister. He believed it had fallen or gotten knocked off into the area around the porch. He also stated it may be on the beach in the dry sand but was more convinced it was around or under the porch. He also told me that they had to check out by 10 a.m. Saturday. We arranged for me to show up at 8 a.m. and check out both areas.

I arrived on time and talked with Park who showed me the area around the porch that he suspected the ring was. Luckily, the area was mostly dead leaves and a couple of sticker bushes. He told me the wedding band was yellow gold; I had my Equinox 800 so I knew the ring would show up in the 15-17, maybe 18 range on the VDI (visual display indicator) depending on the size of the ring. I searched all along the porch area and got nothing in the range I expected. From there, Park and I walked out to the beach, but Park wasn’t really sure the ring would be out there. He showed me the area and went back to the house to finish packing and loading the car. The area was maybe 15X20 ft and wouldn’t take long. I started an east/west grid line outside the suspected area. About my fifth or sixth line I got a solid 16 on the VDI and about 3-4 inches deep. I left my scoop in the car because I didn’t think I’d need it, wrong! I started sifting the sand through my fingers and saw Park’s yellow gold band lying in the hole I had made. Bingo!! I walked back to the house and knocked on the door. Park’s wife opened the door and called Park to come downstairs. About halfway down he asked if I had found it. I held it up and said, “Yes.” He instantly perked up and was so excited he had his ring back. I think it’s going to be a much happier ride home to DC.

Park – Thank you for calling me and trusting me to help find your lost wedding band. Take care!

Lost Ring in Red Butte Gardens: Found and Returned

When Sarah was married eleven years ago, she and her husband had a local jeweler design and create matching white gold wedding bands. Recently, while Sarah was teaching an outdoor yoga class to cancer patients at Red Butte Gardens, she lost her ring. After searching everywhere, retracing her steps, and looking anywhere the ring could possibly be, she called me. I was able to bring my metal detectors to Red Butte Gardens that same day, and after searching for only about five minutes, we found her ring!

Half of Pendants Lost in the Ocean Have Been Found Along North Carolina Shores

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

 

Emerald Isle, NC – Heather was swimming with her mother in chest deep water when she wanted to swipe some seaweed from her swim top.  Unfortunately, it was her gold necklace with 2 golden pendants attached that she snagged.  The chain broke and the charms disappeared.  Her mother posted on social media about the missing charms including a picture of a gold horn and gold cross.

After searching the area, I managed to dig up the golden horn and unfortunately after 4 attempts, have not found the golden cross.  Heather was thankful for getting the horn returned and hopefully we will meet one more time for her to retrieve her gold cross!

Lost platinum wedding ring, FOUND!

Wildwood Crest, New Jersey By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Ed the other night. Ed explained that he was on the beach in Wildwood Crest NJ enjoying some time with family and in the surf with his son tossing a football. At some point during his visit, Ed’s platinum wedding band slipped off his finger unbeknownst to him. Ed wasn’t entirely sure “when” he lost his ring but he was fairly certain that it was somewhere on the beach or in the surf. First thing, the next morning, I rode over to Lotus Ave and met Ed on the beach. Ed showed me the specific areas he was at the day before and pointed out the approximate area he was at in the surf. The tide was already about an hour and a half incoming so I checked where he had been sitting and all of the remaining wet and shallow surf. I knew chances would be much better if I searched at dead low tide so I planned on returning later in the afternoon when the tide was low. I rode back over in the afternoon, about an hour before low tide, and began searching the shallow water. After about 60 minutes of searching I managed to pull a butterfly ring and a few other coins and trash targets. About ten minutes later I swung my coil over a clean, distinct signal. After two scoops, Ed’s ring appeared from the water in my scoop! I texted Ed the good news and he immediately came back down to the beach to retrieve his ring, in total amazement! Another happy ending, another satisfied client!

Ed’s review: “Jeff found my wedding band a day after I lost it in the ocean off of Lotus Beach in the Crest. Amazing that he was able to find it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Platinum Engagement Ring Lost In The Ocean Water, Found With A Metal Detector In Kennebunkport, Maine

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

😱 LOST IN THE OCEAN, FOUND IN 10 SECONDS! ⏱️💍
How we recovered a priceless platinum engagement ring at Mother’s Beach…

Late Friday afternoon on July 3rd, I received an urgent phone call from Susan.

Earlier that day, her daughter Lucy was in the water at Mother’s Beach in Kennebunk, Maine, throwing a football around with a group of 15–20 family and friends.

As Lucy went to catch the ball, it hit her hand—sending her platinum engagement ring flying straight into the ocean. 🌊💔

The ring instantly disappeared into the waves and sand. 🌊💍

A massive search by the group turned up absolutely nothing, and everyone was feeling completely helpless.

Thankfully, a kind woman on the beach saw them searching and told them about The Ring Finders of Maine . 🔍

As soon as Susan called, Cheryl and I loaded up our gear in record time and took off, towards Kennebunk, via Kennebunkport Maine 🏎️💨

Despite holiday traffic, we arrived in 35 minutes.

Lucy met us and took us right to the spot.

The family knew the exact area, so we quickly set up our grid boundaries.
I started at the southern end of the beach, right where Lucy had been standing when it happened.

Everyone was anxiously watching. Susan walked out to follow right beside me.

I could see the pure worry on her face, and I prayed I could turn that worry into a smile. 🥺

I took my first few steps. About 8 feet into my grid search , my metal detector hit a massive, loud, low tone! 🚨

The Target Identification (TID) was locking in at 17–19 and was incredibly repeatable.

I looked at Susan and told her it was a very, very good target—and only zero to two inches deep.

Could I have actually found this lost platinum ring in under 10 seconds of searching?! ⏱️👀

I took off my headphones and let Susan listen to the signal. I told the group I couldn’t guarantee it, but I was highly confident.

I invited everyone to crowd around and watch the dig.

🥄 Scoop #1: Just sand.

🥄 Scoop #2: As I lifted the wet sand out of the hole, people started SCREAMING! 🎉😭

Right there, sitting perfectly in the sand inside my scoop, was the platinum engagement ring!💍

Cheers, tears, clapping, and massive hugs broke out instantly!

The anxious energy on the beach transformed into a full-on celebration. ✨

As Susan and Lucy hugged, Susan pointed to the scoop and told Lucy to go get her ring.💍

The moment Lucy picked it up, her dad, Alex, stepped in for a massive “Dad Hug.” 🥰

The happy tears were really flowing now! 🥹
❤️

Even strangers passing by on the beach couldn’t help but stop and smile. 😊

Cheryl and I were absolutely beaming, knowing we could bring this family such massive relief.

What started as a holiday disaster turned into a moment of pure triumph—a celebration this family will never forget. 🌟

This is exactly why we do what we do.

There is no better feeling in the world than replacing sheer panic with pure joy.🤩

As we packed up to leave the family to their celebration, I looked at Cheryl and couldn’t help but think:

We really do have the best job in the world. 🕵️‍♂️❤️🕵️‍♀️

Remember: “If it matters to you, it matters to us.” 👋💍

✨ A final wish for Lucy: May your upcoming wedding be the beautiful beginning of a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and a bond that shines even brighter than the platinum on your finger! 🥂🍾

Bradley lost an anchor cross that had been given to him by his grandmother, in the sand at the beach. This was very sentimental to him, and I let him know I was available to come immediately to do a search.

Then on one pass, I got a very strong signal, dug, and had this beautiful piece of jewelry in my scoop. I held it up for him wherein he became very emotional because of how much it meant to him. I was happy to make his day. It is very satisfying seeing people go from sad to happy in an instant.

Gold Tooth Grill Lost in the Soft Sand, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

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

This search started just after 1 pm, on July 10, 2026, when I received a text message saying, “Hello, is this Jim Wren.” I responded, “Yes.”  Then I get, “Hi, I was recommended to you off the internet and I was wondering if I could use your help? I have a custom gold tooth set I dropped in the sand, I recovered two of them, but I can’t find the last one. It was 3 pieces all together.” I called her and got additional details, including the address and was on my way.

When I arrived at the address she gave me, I wasn’t close to the beach, so I called her and asked for the resort name, which she provided. I ended up at the resort and had to explain what I was there for to the security guard at the front gate. He seemed reluctant but let me through to park. My second obstacle was the gate guard at the resort’s swimming pool. I made my way through the swimming area and out on the boardwalk looking out at the huge crowd on the beach. I called the young lady, Trejour and told her where I was standing. She ended up being down the beach and she called when she saw me. She showed me the very small area, and I asked for one of the other grill teeth so I could test it. It rang up as a 2-3 on the Equinox 800 VDI (visual display indicator). I made a couple of swings and hit a solid 4 on the VDI. I was able to use my pin pointer to hit the target, but I still had to sift the sand through my fingers to find the missing grill. She was extremely happy when I handed it back to her.

Trejour – Thank you for calling me and allowing me to help find your lost treasure.

Lost ring in Superior Wisconsin lake found!

  • from Coon Rapids (Minnesota, United States)

While many were celebrating the 4th of July festivities, this unfortunate incident occurred: a recently engaged couple lost their ring after swimming.

The ring had been placed on a hat before they went into the water because they knew it could be lost while swimming. Unfortunately, the hat was put on before the ring was removed, sending the ring into approximately three feet of water next to a dock. Family and friends searched frantically but were unsuccessful.

After a thorough search, the ring was successfully recovered. Thankfully, this 4th of July incident turned out with a bang.

I want to thank you for choosing me as your ring finder. You were most generous in all aspects not to mention the delicious fresh baked cookies, drinks, and for allowing our granddaughter the opportunity to swim while I searched.

I wish to thank you for choosing me as your ring finder, you were most generous with cookies, drink, and allowing our grand daughter an opportunity to swim while I searched.

I was contacted by Sean who thought he lost his gold wedding band while cutting his grass. We talked and I agreed to come out at his convivence to conduct a search.

Although it took a little while for our schedules to matchup I went out and met Sean who took me around his property where he wanted me to search. It was a large yard and there was a few spots he thought were more likely than others including one on the property line where the neighbor had just removed some trees. Even though some time had passed the grass in the yard was thick and dense and gave me hope that despite a few cuts the ring might still be hidden there. I got started and soon finished with a small portion of the front yard and the backyard. I was starting to wonder if I was going to be able to find it as I was starting to run out of real estate. Then in the area of the side yard where the trees had been removed I got a strong repeatable sound. I started poking around with my pin pointer and there is was! Sean came out of the house to meet me, very pleasantly surprised that I had found it. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and be able to reunite him with his lost wedding ring.

Elyse reached out to me about a class ring she lost in front of her house. She was doing something while getting into a car and it flew off her finger. We made arrangements and I went out the next morning to see if I could help find the ring.

I arrived and Elyse showed me where the car was parked and what she thought had happened. She described hearing the ring bounce on the pavement a few times. They were convinced that it must have bounced off the sidewalk and into the yard. She had been tried to locate it prior to my arrival with no luck. I searched the yard and curb strips several times with both a large and small coil and could not locate the ring. I was telling Elyse that I was all but positive that the ring was not in the yard and probably somewhere on the street. It was at that point Elyse went over to the car closest to us and looked underneath. Suddenly she emerged with her ring! Elyse was very excited to have her ring back and ruling out the yard for certain played a crucial part in the recovery. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and have her reunited with her lost ring!
