2 Gold Rings Recovered in Va Beach!

  • from Virginia Beach (Virginia, United States)

Got a call about 2 lost gold rings this afternoon! They were lost in shoulder deep water. One diamond ring was her mother’s ring and had sentimental value. It was not an easy recovery! Over an hour in shoulder deep water with waves coming in! After digging some change, an earring, a lighter I got another good hit. The wedding band came out first! She saw both rings come off together so I knew the diamond ring should be close and it was. So happy to get the rings back especially her mother’s diamond!

Recovered USB Flash Drive Minnesota Metal Detecting

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

I know we are called theringfinders.com, though we actually find so much more than just rings. In my experience alone, I have recovered Rings, Bracelets, Necklaces, Smart Phones, earrings, Apple watches, property stakes, All types of lost boat gear including motors, poles, tackle & boxes. The list goes on, though the one thing I hadn’t searched for was a flash drive. Bruce called me up and asked if I could help search for his. I decided to give it a test first and see what my Minelab Manticore would give me for a reading if anything. I scanned a similar flash drive to his and it actually gave me a decent signal. Broken signal, though strong enough to find. Bruce works for the city and he thought he lost it during a meeting at a local park. I detected the area he was in with no luck. I told him that I was 100% sure the drive wasn’t in this area, so let’s move on to any other places you were that day. He said the only other place was at city hall. So, we drove over and parked, while discussing where to search, Bruce said I took this path and pointed down. As we looked down, there was his flash drive. I know you had a lot of saved work on that drive Bruce and I’m truly happy you have it back safe & sound.

Diamond Tennis Bracelet Recovered on Ocean City, NJ Beach by Ring Finders South Jersey

A relaxing beach day turned stressful in Ocean City, NJ. Elsa accidentally lost her beautiful diamond tennis bracelet while carrying beach chairs off the sand near 18th Street.

The bracelet had come unclasped without her noticing. By the time she realized it was missing, it was already buried somewhere in the sand.

Elsa immediately called Ring Finders South Jersey. She shared the details over the phone, and I told her I would arrive within 15 minutes.

As soon as I reached the beach, I listened carefully to every detail. Knowing exactly where someone was walking often makes all the difference during a recovery.

Using my professional metal detector, I began a slow and methodical grid search. Every sweep was carefully planned to ensure no area was missed.

About 30 minutes into the search, my detector gave a strong signal.

There it was.

Elsa’s beautiful diamond tennis bracelet was safely resting beneath the sand.

Her excitement was unforgettable. Moments like this remind me why I love helping people recover priceless memories.

I have recovered more than 500 lost valuables across South Jersey beaches. Every recovery uses proven search techniques, professional equipment, and years of experience.

Elsa’s 5-Star Review

“WOW!!! I’ve been following Ring Finders for a few years and never thought I would have to use them! Today I lost my bracelet on the beach. I immediately called in a panic and John was there in 13 minutes. We searched what felt like forever, but amazingly it was FOUND!”

Lost ring in Big Lake beach recovered!

  • from Coon Rapids (Minnesota, United States)

Unfortunately, this is an all-too-common occurrence. While swimming at a public beach, his ring slipped off his finger and disappeared beneath the water.

Beaches are a top priority for metal detectorists during the summer because incidents like this happen so often. When I received the call, I knew time was critical. At a busy public beach, every passing hour increases the chance that someone else could find the ring or that shifting sand and heavy foot traffic could make recovery more difficult.

We agreed to meet a few hours later, after the beach had become less crowded. Once I arrived, the search area was identified, and I conducted a thorough search until, at last, his ring was recovered.

Thank you for trusting me to help recover your lost ring. Seeing your appreciation—and your near-tearful expression when it was returned—made every minute of the search worthwhile.

FOUND 1973 CLASS RING IN LAKE….RETURNED!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I found this class ring and did the research to try and return it… On 7/15/2026

UPDATE FOUND OWNER OF THE 1973 CLASS RING ON: 7/17/2026

I was able to find the owner of this ring. Turns out the daughter lost it when she was 15 while at a church event. She is 41 now, so it’s been lost for 26 years! We are planning on meeting up next week!!

This was a hard one. There are so many Northeast schools and only two with a Viking mascot. One in FL and one in PA. I had to go to the class of 1973 class page and checked out their class roster and found the only person it could have been. Searched the name on FB. I found a post that had the mom and daughter and I messaged the daughter, after we talked over the phone we confirmed it was the ring she had lost 26 years ago!!!

So glad I was able find it and even more excited that I will be able to return this ring to the family!

UPDATE RETURNED ON: 7/19/2026

I successfully returned the 1973 class ring back to the daughter that lost it 26 years earlier! She is going to surprise her mom with the ring soon.

I loved the research challenge and even more when I found the rightful owner and was able to return it to the family.

Platinum and Diamond Wedding Ring Lost In The Goose Rocks Beach Sand, Found In Kennebunkport, Maine With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

✨ “That Was Like Magic!” ✨ How a Family’s Beach Day Was Saved by a Low Tone & a Helping Hand 🏖️❤️

As Cheryl and I were driving home from a successful ring recovery and return in York, Maine, my phone rang. 📞

The caller identified herself as Molly. She had just lost her platinum wedding ring with diamonds! 💎💍

Molly was at Goose Rocks Beach in Kennebunkport, Maine. She had taken her ring off and placed it in her lap while applying lotion to her children and herself. 🧴🏖️

She forgot about the ring, stood up, and walked away toward the water. As she was walking, she suddenly remembered it! 🌊😮

Molly rushed back to her chair and began searching the sand, but the ring was gone. Her children and husband also searched, but came up empty. 🔍

Realizing they might be burying the ring deeper into the sand, they wisely stopped searching to prevent making it harder to find. It was then that I was called! 📱🚨

Cheryl and I were at a red light in Biddeford, Maine, when Molly phoned. 🚦 I was literally at the intersection of Route 1 and the road that heads straight to Goose Rocks Beach! 🚘

I was closer to the beach right then than if I had gone home and had to drive back. So, I took a sharp right at the intersection and told Molly I would be there in less than 15 minutes! ⏱️💨

Cheryl and I arrived in short order and were promptly met by Molly. She brought us down to where her family had set up on this 250th anniversary of our country’s independence. 🇺🇸🎆

When we arrived, Molly showed me where she had been sitting and where the family had been searching for her wedding ring in the sand. 🏖️🧱

After firing the metal detector up, I did a quick scan of the area… nothing. ❌

I moved inside the tent a little, and one of the children moved a chair out of the way, but the search still yielded nothing. Molly then showed me the path she had taken toward the water to the right of the canopy. ⛺

After 5 minutes, there was still no wedding ring. It was now time to start moving some of the beach bags under the canopy. 👜🎒

I asked Molly my usual rounds of questions:
💬 “Was it left back at the house?”
💬 “Have you checked the beach bags?”

Once I started back up, I searched the exact spot where a teal-colored beach bag had been sitting… 🎒🕵️‍♂️

BANG!!! 💥
A nice, loud, low tone rang out, reading 17-18-19 on the Target Identification (TID) screen! This TID was the absolute perfect number for a woman’s platinum wedding ring. 📈💍

I asked one of Molly’s children if she would like to use the pinpointer to locate the target. She happily agreed, and after a quick tutorial, she found the spot! 🎯🧒

As she dug in the sand with her hand, the ring wasn’t appearing. She dug deeper, and still nothing! 😮

I said, “It can’t be that deep,” and moved in to dig deeper with my hand when Molly’s husband noted, “We did move some sand around.” ⏳🧱

As I dug further, I felt it… and started pulling it out of the sand! 🖐️💎

Molly’s daughter excitedly cried out:
📣 “Mommy’s wedding ring!”

Her husband exclaimed:
📣 “That was down there deep!”

And her daughter added:
📣 “That was like magic!” ✨🧙‍♂️

Molly let out a massive, joyful laugh! 😂❤️

She could finally relax with her beautiful wedding ring back safely on her finger. The stress and tension instantly lifted, replaced by smiles and laughter all around! 🥰💫

With the sun shining brightly, the family could get back to enjoying their beautiful beach day in Kennebunkport. ☀️🌊

This is why we do it. We love our jobs—it’s truly the best job in the world! 🌍❤️

Cheryl and I were just beaming after recovering our second wedding ring in the span of just two hours! To top it off, Gary had also recovered a wedding ring earlier in the morning. 🥳🙌

Three wedding rings recovered in one day—a true “triple crown” or a “three-peat” in the ring-finding business! 🏆🏆🏆

As we walked off the beach, we couldn’t help but think about what a legendary day it had already been.

It was only 2:25 PM, and little did we know… our day wasn’t done just yet! 😉🌅

“Remember, If It Matters To You, It Matters To Us.” ❤️🔍

Lost Wedding Ring Recovered from Pond—Waldo, Wisconsin

  • from Menomonee Falls (Wisconsin, United States)

Florida resident, Alex Furlong, was enjoying a swim in a privately-owned pond in Waldo, Wisconsin, when his wedding ring was lost. Married only two and half weeks, Alex and his bride, Anna Rose, had taken care to remove their wedding rings from their hands before entering the water. They set their love tokens on the end of a paddleboard resting on the shore.

While returning to the beach, Alex noticed a monstrous blackfly sitting in the middle of the board. To save Anna Rose from being bitten, he lunged at the fly wth the paddle in hand, but the impact sent the rings catapulting up into the air! Amazingly, Anna’s rings landed back on the paddleboard, but Alex’s 14k band bounded down the board and dissappeared into the murky pond. Despite their best search efforts, the devastated couple could not locate it.

The Furlong’s found me on the Ring Finder’s online directory of metal-detecting specialists. I received a phone call from Alex later that same afternoon. I was searching for another ring at the time and so arranged to meet Alex on location at 5:00 a.m. the next morning. The Waldo pond was near Sheboygan, just over an hour’s drive from my home in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Upon arrival, Alex led the way in the early-morning haze to the spot where the ring had disappeared. A buoy in the water marked the location.

Using my XP Deus 2 underwater detector and an Extreme titanium water scoop, I began sweeping the bottom of the pond. Not far from shore, I heard a clear signal in my headset; it emanated from a metallic target deep in the mud. The conductivity numbers were consistent with a yellow-gold ring. I extracted a large scoop of mud and sand from the area and checked it again with my detector. The target area was now quiet. This meant the metal object now had to be in my scoop. After shaking the scoop’s contents out in the water, a small handful of pebbles remained. Another shake revealed the glimmer of gold —a man’s wedding ring!

Carefully extracting the ring, I confirmed it indeed belonged to Alex! Alex told me earlier, two ancient Greek words were inscribed inside the band, ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους. I recognized these words of Jesus from my biblical-Greek studies. Translated into English, they read, “love one another.”

The early-morning sunlight made the smile on Alex’s face all the more radiant, a smile that tells the rest of the story!

Alex, may the story of your ring continue for many, many years to come as you and Anna Rose faithfully “love one another.”

If you or someone you know has a lost a ring, recent or long ago, on land or in the water, give me a call. I would be honored to add your smile to the growing list of people who, like the Furlongs, are so glad they did.

Lost gold & amethyst ring, FOUND! By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Jordan. Jordan explained that she was enjoying a day at the beach with her family. Jordan decided to wade into the water but took off her rings and was in the process of handing them to her dad when they slipped from his grip and fell into the water. The rings immediately disappeared. Jordan and both of her parents began frantically searching but repeatedly came up empty-handed. That’s when a neighboring beachgoer handed Jordan one of my cards. I took the short ride over from home and met up with the family on the beach less than 15 minutes later after gathering the backstory I found Jordan‘s mother standing in the water, right where the rings dropped. I proceeded into the water and on the first swing, got a low growl tone. After a couple scoops of sand, I had Jordan‘s ring back in my scoop.  Jordan‘s mother explained that this Ring was passed down to Jordan through the family over the years, so even though it was small in size, it had a tremendous amount of sentimental value attached to it. Another happy family another successful recovery!
