Car key fob lost and found Belleville Ontario

Contact:

Received a message from Brianna about her husband having lost a whole bunch of keys, including their car key fob, while clearing a drive way with a snowblower. His key chain broke while clearing snow the night before. Met up with her and she confirmed she was missing a car key fob and an appartement key fob as well. After looking at where the snow had been thrown in the yard by snowblower, I started detecting/gridding the area and soon found a couple set of keys that she wasn’t even aware went missing. Eventually, 2 key fobs and 2 set of keys were recovered. Disaster averted and another happy ending. Life is good!

Ring Found In Backyard, Portland, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

It was a busy day on Sunday. At noon the ring at Grand Valley State was found and then at around 4PM we found this ring. Tommy called me and said his fiancee had let the dogs out the backdoor and was playing with them when her ring came up missing. On arriving Tommy took me to the backyard and I observed an area about 10ft square where they had been searching for the ring. There was about 2 inches of snow on the grass. Kiana was at work so she was not available to add her input into her actions. I made 2 passes with the detector and found out the amount of trash targets were overwhelming with all the chatter. Being the coldest day of the year I told Tommy he better go inside and stay warm because this was going to take me some time to sort out all the trash. Shortly after he went inside I got the signal I was looking for. About a foot from the concrete pad to the back door I got that strong gold tone and there was the ring. I told Tommy to send me a picture of Kiana when she got home. I suggested he surprise her with the glass of wine with the ring in it trick when she got home. 2 more entries to my book of smiles, what a fun day!

Ring Found At Grand Valley State College, Allendale, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)

Sydney sent me a text this morning saying she lost her oura ring last night while sledding down a hill on campus after midnight. They went out there this morning searching for the ring again but came up empty. I met her and her friends at the site and she said the oura app showed the ring on the hillside this morning. While searching she brings up the app again and it says her ring should be in the area she is standing. I start to move toward her and she looks down and sees her ring laying upright in the snow. Sometimes you just get lucky! That is one happy trio!!

John and his wife were finishing up yard work at their house, when he realized his wedding ring was missing from his finger.  They looked around for an hour before dark with no luck.  He decided to look on the internet to rent or buy a metal detector and luckily found The Ring Finders. He contacted me and we made plans to meet the following day.  I searched for about twenty minutes in the area they said they were working and there it was, hiding below the grass.  Now the ring is back on John’s finger, where it belongs.

Found Ring Lost In Vermont

  • from Barre (Vermont, United States)

1/15/26

I got a call this afternoon from a fellow who’s wife had lost her engagement ring and wedding band a few days ago. They were visiting Vermont and having fun in the Winter outdoors. They were sliding on the steep hill at their AirBnB when she crashed and rolled over. She immediately realized that her rings had fallen off. Luckily, they found her wedding band still in the sled! So, they knew the engagement ring must be nearby. They searched the best they could and finally gave up. Snow doesn’t give up small items easily!

Knowing that a metal detector was needed, they found The Ring Finders service on line and gave me a call. Fortunately, I had the afternoon off and was able to go right over. They had already left the state, so were unable to accompany me. He sent me an awesome video of her crash and all the laughing after! Between that video and all their tracks in the snow, I had a good idea about where to start the search. Literally 5 or 6 swings and I heard a strong gold signal! About 6 or 7” into the snow was her beautiful ring! I immediately sent them a photo, they were so relieved.

I drove part way to New Jersey to save them a couple hundred miles of driving and the expense of an overnight stay. She has her ring back on her finger now! None of us dared to mail it, it is too important.

Heirloom ring recovered from the snow! – Watertown, Wisconsin.

  • from Menomonee Falls (Wisconsin, United States)
Contact:

When Watertown, Wisconsin resident, Mariah Kruschke was twelve years of age, her grandmother passed away from cancer. Before she died, she gave Mariah an 18k ring to remember her by, a ring she wore every day since. Then, the unthinkable happened! The ring slipped off Mariah’s hand into the snow in a field in front of their country home. She felt the ring leave her hand but despite two and half hours searching and raking through the snow, it could not be found.

Mariah’s brother, Justice, even obtained a metal detector, but the presence of underground wiring and other metallic debris resulted in a cacophony of signals, making the endeavor futile. That’s when they located my listing on theringfinders.com directory of metal detecting specialists. I have over 40 years forensic metal detecting experience.

I received a text from Justice and arranged to meet on location that same evening. The half hour drive was extended another half hour due to a mapping error on the cellphone I used. But at last, we connected at the Kruschke’s home. It was dark by this time. It was also a bitterly cold night, one made colder by an angry wind. I donned a headlamp and followed Mariah and Justice to the area where the ring had gone missing. Evidence of their search efforts was clear from the large area of grass where the snow had been raked away and melted down in hopes of revealing the ring.

A quick search of the cleared area confirmed it was not there. Expanding the search grid resulted in hearing the signal I was listening for in my headset, the unmistakable sound and conductivity numbers consistent with a recently lost gold ring. Upon investigation and using a special metal-detecting probe, the ring’s hiding place was at last disclosed deep in the snow where it had fallen. I retrieved the precious ring and walked back to where Mariah stood shivering in the dark frigid night. “Maybe this will help to warm you up, Mariah,” I said as I slipped the ring into her hand.

Tears, relief, a hug and smiles followed.

If you or someone you know has lost a ring, recent or long ago, on land, in water or in the snow, don’t let the ring’s story end. Call a member of The Ring Finders near you. It’s what we do! We’d love to put a smile on someone else’s face. After all, it’s more than a ring!

Lost 2 White Gold Rings Bridal Set w/ Diamonds in the Snow Found in Taylor Michigan

The Tip of the Iceberg……

Presented itself when a more than predicted snowfall drop Wednesday afternoon in southeast Michigan took everyone by surprise, especially newly married Jacob and his wife. While dodging sleet as they walked into the shopping mall Jacob tripped and fell onto the snow. As his wife helped him back on his feet, she dusted him off but after they got into the store, she noticed her ring was missing. They put on ice what they came for and rushed back outside to the snow-covered area of the fall. The sound of snowplow blades on the pavement had them frozen in fear but Jacob had ice in his veins and tried to find the ring by moving some snow around, but that cut no ice. Jake called his dad to take his wife home, and I asked Jacob on the phone if he could remain there and try to keep the plows at bay until I arrived. That seemed to work, as the area was unscraped when I started to search with my MXT metal detector. Scanning over the small piles of snow a familiar signal came thru and moving the veil of snow above the signal revealed what was really hiding beneath the tip of the iceberg…..the missing ring! Overwhelmed with excitement from getting beyond the surface of the lost ring, Jacob feels this is the beginning of a great year and many more for him and his wife, and that’s the icing on the cake!

Metal Detector in Solana Beach San Diego helped find a lost ring, Avoid Metal detector equipment rentals!

Metal detecting Recovery services helped find a lost Platinum Cartier wedding ring at Solana beach San Diego. Call or text Curtis Cox 760 889 2751  before it’s too late! Don’t ret or buy metal detectors!

This call for help came during the peak of summer in 2025 when asked if I could recover a wedding ring lost in the shallow surf at Solana beach San Diego. Though it was a hot crowded day there and the tides were not very low I decided to go immediately & detect as much as I could in the pounding shore break along the steep slope.

After over an hour of searching I was not able to find his lost ring. While texting back & forth with the wife to make sure I was in the correct area as described,,I chose to scan just a further south with my Metal detector while waiting for a reply.

Suddenly a few minutes into it I get a sound on my Metal detector similar to platinum or Gold at the bottom of the slope. This is what I call the hungry part of the beach that will eat jewelry & occasionally regurgitate them as well.

Focus & speed is needed to recover this target as they can disappear while digging for ‘em’.  With waves crashing on the shoreline, beach goers surrounding within feet of me, Timing will be keene so I patiently waited the intervals then charged back down the slope,,stuck my scoop in the sand just once where I heard that signal and ran back up the slope before the next wave broke.

Exhausted from the heat and being asked if I found anything good 5 times in a row…?????  I begged King Neptune the Sea God for this to be the Ring I was looking for saying “Please please please” while shaking sand out of my scoop that’s when suddenly his bright Platinum Cartier ring magically shined in the sun!

They were very grateful & amazed I could help find their precious wedding they thought may of been gone forever.
