Gold ring lost in ocean, FOUND! Cape May, NJ By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Cathy last evening. Cathy explained that she was swimming in the ocean with her family when her ring slipped off of her finger and disappeared into the chest deep surf. After gathering some location specifics and checking the tide charts, I decided to search for the ring at tonight’s low tide. The surf was pretty sporty this evening, but I began working my search patterns as accurately as possible. After about 45 minutes of searching my detector emitted a distinct low growl. After sifting several scoops of sand, Cathy’s ring appeared in the bottom my scoop. I gave Cathy the good news via text and she and her husband come down and retrieved their ring. Another happy couple another successful recovery!

Cathy’s Review: “Lost my wedding band in the surf at Grant Beach in Cape May and thought it was gone forever! Was told about Ring Finders…learned how time and tides work against them when they search… so I called Jeff that same afternoon. I didn’t know help was available! With as much information as I could give him, he worked the place I lost it twice during ebbing tides the next day. He found the ring buried under a foot of sand with waves crashing around him, and beachgoers applauding him. I was amazed, grateful, and happy to have had this turn out this way. Thank you, Ring Finders!”

Gold Stud Earring Lost In The Grass, Found With A Metal Detector, In Scarborough, Maine

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)
Contact:

???? ?????????? ????????: Handcrafted Treasure Saved! ?✨

On July 15th, I got a heartbreaking call from Emily, a local real estate agent. ?‍?
The night before, she was playing volleyball at Memorial Park in Scarborough, Maine. ?

? Side note: This park is so nostalgic for me—it’s the site of the old Portland Twin Drive-In Theatre! ??

During a big play at the net, Emily jumped high and brushed against the mesh. ?

In a split second, her custom earring slipped out and vanished into the thick grass. ?

Emily and her friends searched on their hands and knees but found absolutely nothing. ?

This wasn’t just any jewelry. Emily used to be a professional jeweler. ?️

She had designed and handcrafted this specific gold earring herself. ?

She left the park completely devastated. ?

? ??? ???? ???????? ??? ? ???????????’? ?????????:

Most people think metal detectors find jewelry instantly. ?

But tiny stud earrings are the ultimate test of skill and gear. ?️

They contain an incredibly minute amount of precious metal. ?

When they fall into thick grass, they rarely lay flat. ?

Standard detecting programs look for round, dense targets like coins or thick wedding bands. ??

A vertical, microscopic gold post has an electromagnetic footprint that is almost non-existent. ?

Standard factory programs will simply ignore it or filter it out as ground noise. ?

To give us a fighting chance, I swapped to my agile 8″ coil. ?

I booted up the Minelab Manticore’s specialized “Gold Field” program. ?

This mode is engineered to sniff out tiny, low-conductive gold that other detectors miss. ✨

⚡ ??? ?????? & ??? ?????? ??????:

Emily met me at the park at 1:30 PM, right after I got back from York. ?

She had smartly marked the exact net post hole with a small tree branch. ?

I started a tight, overlapping grid search on her side of the net. ?

Nothing but faint iron mineralization from the soil. ?

I crossed over to the opposing team’s side of the net and kept swinging. ?️‍♂️

After 5 to 6 minutes of methodical scanning… BANG! ⚡

A sharp, beautifully repeatable audio signal broke through my headphones. ?

Having had two complete and total knee replacements, dropping down to the ground wasn’t happening. ??

Instead, I carefully bent over and used my handheld pinpointer to narrow down the grass blades. ?️‍♂️?

As I slowly parted the turf with my fingers, there it was—gleaming bright yellow in the dirt! ✨?

Emily spotted it at the exact same millisecond. ?️⭐

(If you haven’t seen her reaction yet, go watch the video Reel I posted last night!) ??

She started jumping up and down with her hands in the air, celebrating wildly! ??

? “WOW, thank you so much!” she shouted. ??

Seeing that pure joy and relief is exactly why I do this. ❤️

Honestly, I have the best job in the world, and I love my job! ??

Welcome home, earring! ??

??????-???-????? ?? ??? ?????????? ??????!?️

Funny enough, volleyball courts have been my specialty this season!

This actually marks my third volleyball court recovery of the year. ?

The first two were rings lost in the deep sand during intense beach volleyball games. ?️?

But switching from soft beach sand to thick park grass is a whole different ballgame—and it feels great to keep the streak alive! ?️➡️?

????? ????????? ????????? ???’? ???? ?? ????!?✨

At the end of the day, our motto is simple:

? “?? ?? ??????? ?? ???, ?? ??????? ?? ??.”?

Whether it’s a sentimental ring lost on the beach ?️, a family heirloom dropped in the backyard ?, or a tiny earring lost in a local park ?, time is of the essence. ⏱️

If you or someone you know has lost a metal item in the southern Maine area, don’t wait. ? Call or text today, 207-423-3027

  • from Virginia Beach (Virginia, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Michael up in New Jersey. He lost his gold wedding band last Friday at a local beach and just realized today that there are ring finding services out there! He put a circle on a map to give me an idea where it was lost. I knew my daylight time was limited. I started gridding the area off. The first grid did not produce so I started a second grid a little further away and BAM! We gave him a facetime call to let him know! I got it back to him!

Lost Gold Ring in Berkeley Hills Garden…Recovered!

Bay Area Ring Finders: Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

I truly have the best job in the world when it comes to lost item recovery.  I get to meet really interesting people, all of which are supportive and grateful for my efforts.  There is always a sense of adventure, not unlike any great treasure hunt.  And don’t get me started on the precious metals and gemstones! However, I think that all of us who perform these searches will agree, the greatest part about successfully recovering someones item are the reactions.

Danica contacted me after getting my information from fellow Ring Finder Laura Peters (Shout out to Laura…Thank you and I can’t wait to hunt together).  Danica had requested help recovering her beautiful gold wedding ring from a mishap in the garden.  We set a date for the following day and I reassured her that we would be successful in our endeavor.

The following day was wonderful and I was brimming with confidence after a successful recovery in Danville before heading to a beautiful home in the Berkeley Hills to meet Danica.  She showed me areas of interest and we made efforts to clear them as we walked. At one location, Danica informed me that the garden had “Gopher Wire” beneath the soil rendering the Manticore useless.  I switched tactics and knew that my best bet was to utilize my Garret Pinpointer and tune the sensitivity while searching the dirt beneath each plant.

Less than 20 minutes had past and score…We Made The Recovery!  A wave of shock and excitement shown on Danica’s face, an almost childhood giddiness ensued.  I spent a few minutes taking the obligatory pictures for my profile and chatting with her.  It has a joyous moment for us both.

Thank you Danica for entrusting me with your search and recovery!  It was a pleasure to serve you!

Lost earring found with a metal detector in Lowell

  • from Marietta (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

This person lost a very sentimental and very tiny diamond earring but did EVERYTHING right for me to find it!!

If you ever lose a piece of small jewelry, these are the things to do. Read her story to see what she did. She made it a lot easier to find a really hard target that 90% of metal detectors would not even pick up!!

Here’s her story.

As the sun was setting in the last heat wave,  I was working to cover my blackberries from the birds.   As I adjusted the roofing net, I felt it snag on my earring.  I reached up and grabbed it as fast as I could but all I caught was the back.  My 25 years old earrings- earring purchased to celebrate my child being born- were missing.  I have never taken them out for more then a few minutes a few times in 25 years.  I just stood there looking down in the blackberry patch. After about 20 minutes,  I sat down overwhelmed by weeds and devastated that I couldn’t find it.  I had a red zip tie in my pocket that I slid into place where my left foot was for a reference point for my search and I had someone bring a pair of scissors out to me.  The weeds were all between waist and armpit high,  in blackberries.  Over many hours the next 4 days, I cut every blade of grass, every weed and carefully navigated all the spiders (which I’m allergic to.) I had cleared a spot about 4 foot by 3 foot down to the dirt and everything I cut out was carefully laid on top of a trash bag.  I wouldn’t let anyone else inside or let them move the netting.  Nothing was moved in any way or thrown away and still I couldn’t find my earring.  Not sure where to turn next, I asked my friends on Facebook and immediately I had 2 people respond “Steve Wagner!” I sent him a friend request and a message.  His response?  Call me.  I did and explained what I lost and more about the situation.  I was losing hope but he said he would be there in a few minutes to see what he could do.   

I had the matching earring to it with me so he could get the readings from it.   After he tuned in his detector the way he wanted it and entered the berry patch, he picked up something within seconds- literally.  It took a little longer to find it because it was hidden in a grass root clump. Plus, all this happened while it was raining! I couldn’t believe it.   I’m so incredibly grateful for him responding and finding my lost treasure.   They’re so special to me.  Thank you!Lost jewelry ear ring necklace meta detector rental Ohio Marietta

Had a gentleman call me. He had dropped his cellphone in the lake and was desperate to recover it. He knew the phone was dead but wanted to have the pictures from the sim card of his grandkids that was still on it. It took a few minutes with zero visibility but thankfully I brought my metal detector. He was extremely happy to see me come up with it.

Lost bracelet in Lake Huron in Au Gres Michigan

  • from Mount Pleasant (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Dave saying that he lost a Cuban link gold bracelet in the water in Lake Huron. He wasn’t at the location when I got there, but he marked the area very well. I found it in waist deep water in about 15 minutes. Of course when he got back from golfing with his buddies I made him think I hadn’t found it yet. It made for a good YouTube video. Just got a call from him that he lost it again on the same day I found it. He lost it at the golf course in the wooded area. I will be going back soon to find it again. Check out the video on YouTube. My channel is called the ringmeister. It’s my best one yet. I hope to make another successful return to him soon. The name of the video will be Finding Dave’s bracelet part 2.

SS Earrings Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned Cherry Grove SC

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

This morning, August 5, 2026, I received the following text from Robin. “Good morning. I’m sure it’s a long shot but yesterday I lost my grandmothers sterling silver large hoops. I had taken them off to go into the ocean with my daughter – fearing losing them if I went under. Silly me placed them in the pocket of my beach chair and when we left, I folded it up and walked back. We were sitting very close to tower chair 2 near the Inlet Point Villas and I walked straight back to the villas. I have search everywhere hard and tried looking this morning on the beach with no luck. I’m most upset because they held such sentimental value. Please let me know if you think there could be a chance in finding them and what you charge for your services. Thank you.” I called Robin and got a few more details. At the time the sky was black, and it was raining, but there was no lightening. I waited awhile and just after noon, I text her I was on my way and would be there in 15-20 mins. When she responded, she also stated that she had found one of the earrings and the other should be close to the same spot.

When I arrived at the gated community, I called Robin and she came out to open the gate. We walked out on the beach to where she had set up a beach chair. I tested the earring with the Equinox 800 that she had found lying at the edge of the water and got a solid 15. I started a grid search and walked maybe 10 steps and got a solid 9 on the detector. I dug the target, washed the sand out in the surf and Bingo, I had her other earring in the scoop. She was very excited and grateful her grandmother’s other earring was back in her possession.

Robin – Thank you for trusting and allowing me to help find your special earring.

Jim
