Cell Phone Lost in the Bay, Manasquan NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Edward Trapper NJ Ring Finder returns cell phone lost in the bay Bill called asking if I could help recover his cell phone that had just fell in the water. I told him I was near by and could swing right over.

As he was getting onto the boat somehow it fell out of his pocket and went straight down between the dock and the boat. Luckily he hadn’t tried fishing it out with a net as that will usually push it much farther making the recovery difficult.

I was only in the water a short time when my metal detector gave off a loud signal and BINGO, had his phone in my scoop moments after.

Another example of calling ASAP, and not upsetting the search area, resulting in a fast recovery.

Lost Gold Plumeria Ring at Ala Moana Beach Park…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call from Zoe who lives in Tampa, Florida and was on vacation visiting friends on Oahu.  Zoe just recently purchased the gold plumeria ring as a memento to her visit as it was her favorite flower of Hawaii.  She had taken it off and placed it on a beach blanket for safe keeping.  The wind picked up and was blowing sand and rain.  Zoe picked up the blanket to shake off the sand and at the same time realized the ring had been on it.  Zoe, her Hanai Aunt & a friend searched but couldn’t find the ring in the sand.  I told Zoe I could be there in about 15 minutes.  When I arrived Zoe had already marked the area.  I started up the Manticore and began the search.  After covering the suspected area with no find I expanded the grid in every direction.  Still no ring.  I could see a look of hopelessness on Zoe’s face and I was quite puzzled as to where the ring could be.  I decided to go perpendicular to the initial search and farther down towards the water.  BOOM!  Way out of the initial grid towards the water the Manticore screamed and as I looked down I could see the faint outline of a gold ring in the wet sand.  I yelled over to Zoe and the other girls and they all ran down to the spot to see.  Several hugs and laughs later Zoe’s vacation is saved.  That blanket sure tossed the ring!  Aloha to Zoe!

Edward Trapper NJ Ring Finder recovers Necklace on the beach in Manasquan New Jersey

Around noon, I received a call from Aaron who was extremely upset after losing a beautiful gold necklace at the beach. He explained that he normally kept the chain safely around his neck, but on this particular day he decided to place it inside his shoe while relaxing on the sand. Aaron told me they had set up near one of the beach access paths and, when packing up for the day, walked back toward the entrance on a diagonal line roughly 100 feet away. Somewhere along that walk, the necklace must have fallen out of the shoe without him realizing it.

Before calling me, Aaron and his friend spent a long time searching the area themselves. They dragged their feet through the sand and even brought down a rake hoping to snag the necklace, but unfortunately they had no luck.

I arrived shortly after and began searching by creating several small grid patterns, starting near the area where their towels had been laid out for the day. After clearing about four smaller sections without a signal, I started becoming concerned because we were getting very close to the dune crossover and had already covered a large portion of the possible search area.

Just a few moments later, I heard a very faint low tone — exactly the kind of signal you hope to hear when searching for a thin gold necklace. One scoop later, there it was sitting in the bottom of my scoop!

The relief on Aaron and his friend’s faces said it all. After spending so much time searching with no success, the situation completely turned around in an instant. Smiles replaced stress, and another valuable piece of jewelry was successfully reunited with its owner thanks to metal detecting recovery equipment and a systematic search.

If you lose jewelry at the beach, don’t give up hope. Many items can still be recovered with the proper equipment and experience.

Received a call from Joes cousin Nicole. Nicole explained that her cousin Joe had just lost his ring in the surf while enjoying the ocean with the family. Joe was body surfing, and at some point, his gold wedding ring had slipped off and disappeared into the ocean. It was just about 5pm when they called and low tide was at 5:30pm. I immediately rushed up and met up with Joe and his family. Joe was fairly confident of where he was at when he noticed the ring was gone but wasnt positive of exactly when it happened. He was between chest deep water and ankle deep surf. I began working a search grid from where he believed was the most probable spot. After recovering many targets in the “wash zone” I began to work my way out to deeper water. Joe and his family had returned to their home for dinner and I assured them that I would continue searching the area to ensure it was thoroughly covered. After about 2hrs of searching I heard the signal I was waiting for. After two scoops in chest deep water out popped Joes ring! Another happy client!

Joes Review:

“Jeff Laag and Ring Finders Cape May are incredible! I lost my wedding ring in the ocean while on vacation last week. Jeff showed up in no time and immediately started his search! I had dropped some change where I thought I lost the ring to help with his search. Jeff found all $9 in change, searching diligently. After two hours I had all but given up and was going to have to tell my wife I lost my ring less than a year into our marriage! Just then, Jeff sent a message that he had concluded his search…and found the ring! Five feet deep in the ocean! If you’ve lost a ring/ valuable metals you need to give this man a call! Thanks Jeff!”

Rebecca found my number when she googled ,lost my ring on Paradise Beach.  The ringfinders strikes again.  She was pretty sure she had lost her rings playing volleyball at the sand courts.

Hadyah had been gifted a gold bracelet from her boyfriend 2 years ago. After a day filled with fun with friends she noticed her bracelet was missing.  After talking, we realized that the sand volleyball court was the best place to start. I chose to use the Minelab Manticore because of the small signal that the gold would give off. After starting I realized that EMI was going to be an issue.  I finally settled in on using the 40KHZ setting to get it stabilize. This was a private court and had lots of signals of coins and bits and pieces of other jewelry. 75% of the way through the area I finally got a low and dirty signal but clear and consistent. It’s always an honor to recover such an irreplaceable item for someone.

 

 

 

Lost Wedding Band Found With Metal Detector – Atlantic Beach, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Matthew and his wife were enjoying a warm weekend at the beach. Since his fingers sometimes swell, Matthew took off his wedding band and put it in a pouch. Later, after packing up, he realized the ring was missing. His wife posted a plea for help, and a few responses suggested Crystal Coast Ring Finders. The couple had an appointment that afternoon they couldn’t miss, so we agreed to meet the next day. Although pinpointing the exact spot on the beach was tricky, their great detective work brought me within 10 feet of where the ring was lost. Matthew was starting to doubt it could be found, but after a few false signals, I got a loud hit near the new marked spot. Up from the sand came Matthew’s wedding band, back in his hands where it belonged!

Ball park lost ring.

†inTuesday, May 18 at approximately 11 AM I received a call from Niomi regarding a ring she had lost at a Little League game. She asked if I would be willing to search for it and I said, of course. I gathered my equipment and made my way towards their ballpark. On the way I called Niomi to get the story. She had placed three tings inher pocket and she remembered counting them as she put them in. Then later, she left the bleacher area to use the porta potty and had her phone in the same pocket. On the way across the back of the ballfield, she pulled her phone out. When I arrived on the field, the first thing we searched was the porta potty. I convinced Niomi to stand on the porta potty while her daughter and I tipped it in four different directions very slowly. She could see nothing there. She was really anxious to get a ring back. Next, we searched around the metal objects of the field with a small coil and found nothing there. Niomi and her husband had rented a metal detector and detected for several hours, digging many holes in the field and finding just the usual debris. I started making straight line searches across the field, covering about 4 feet at a time. On the second pass, Niomi mentioned that she wouldn’t have gone through that area because there were standing water there at the time of the game. I asked her which side of the water she passed on, but she could not remember. I told Niomi and her daughter to just wait there and I was going to make some expanding circle searches around this wet area. On the second circle I received the sound that I was looking for. I saw the ring, but I didn’t tell Niomi her daughter right off that it was there. I then told her I needed a few pictures for documentation and I took the first picture of her pondering. I asked her what she was thinking. She said I think we might not find it. I said yeah I know what you mean but we haYour ring is right here. She was overjoyed to say the least. Her ring is back where it belongs.

💍 Lost Engagement Ring Recovered from Car – South Jersey Vehicle Recovery

Brian reached out to me after his wife’s engagement ring accidentally popped off her finger and disappeared somewhere beside the seat inside their car. They weren’t sure if it had fallen on the driver’s side or passenger side, but despite thoroughly looking themselves, they couldn’t find it.

I suggested it would be best if they brought the vehicle to me, just in case we needed to remove a seat — I would have all my tools ready. We scheduled a time for the following day. Once they arrived, I began a visual inspection and searched around both seats but found nothing.

I then used my endoscope camera to check under the driver’s seat and, after about 15 minutes of careful searching, I spotted the ring lodged deep in a small crevice beneath the seat assembly. Unfortunately, it was completely unreachable.

We decided to remove the seat for better access. Once the seat was out, I used the endoscope to guide a grab tool down into the tight space and carefully latched onto the ring. Success — the engagement ring was recovered!

Brian and his wife were beyond grateful. They truly believed the ring was gone for good. A short time later, the seat was reinstalled, everything was back in place. Out of respect, their pics were not ised.
