A Recent Rescue at Harbor Cove Beach
VenturaLate Sunday evening,  Jennifer from out of town texted Dave in a panic. Her husband’s wedding ring slipped off while they were enjoying a sunny day at Harbor Cove Beach in Ventura Harbor. The family searched frantically but soon realized they needed a professional with a metal detector. Dave, despite another call, promised to be there at first light Monday morning to recover the ring. Since the family lived far away, Dave agreed to mail the ring back if found, as he’s done for others.Arriving at Harbor Cove Beach before dawn, Dave had the beach to himself—except for a few crows.

I received a call from Laura regarding the loss of her Platinum Diamond Womens Wedding Band at Middle Sex Beach located in South Bethany Beach, Delaware. Laura stated that she was throwing a football around on the beach when her ring slipped off her finger and disappeared into the sand. Laura said that they had marked the area where the ring had been lost. I responded to Middle Sex Beach where I met with Laura and began the search for her lost ring. After a careful  check of the area that Laura had marked the ring was nowhere to be found. I then expanded my search eastward toward the Atlantic Ocean for about fifteen feet at which time the lost ring was found and recovered.

Gold Bracelet with Diamonds Found In Ada, Michigan.

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:
Megan was out stringing wire for her new berry patch when the wire caught on her bracelet and it went flying. She spent a few days searching for the bracelet down on her hands and knees, buying a cheap detector and using a flashlight at night to try and see the diamonds. No luck finding it.
She showed me where she was standing when it happened and I started a grid of the area. In a few minutes I see it laying flat on the ground in full view. I believe it had been hiding upside down with the diamonds on the bottom and it looked just like the brown grass with the points sticking straight up. By us walking thru the area we knocked it down flat on the ground and easy to see. Megan was thrilled to have it back again.

Lost Platinum 2-Piece Mountain Ring Found And Quickly Returned – Pine Knoll Shores

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

CRYSTAL COAST RING FINDERS:
Alex called to ask for assistance to locate Allison’s ring that was dropped on the beach.
The couple was attending a reunion of family members from various states. Allison was showing her grandmother the unique 2-piece ring when it was dropped and buried into the sand. Upon arrival, and between bursts of rain, I noticed they had marked a very small search area and with 4-5 swings of my detector coil I hit a very solid signal. I told them before uncovering the ring “I think this is it”. Using my pinpointer to find the exact location, I pulled up a handful of sand with Allison’s platinum ring. They were all heading back home the following day.

Mattapoisett’s Newest Engagement !

Contact:

I received a message on my phone from Caroline asking if I could help find an engagement ring that had been lost earlier in the morning.  I returned her call with enthusiasm saying I was on my way forgetting it was the Fourth of July.  Traffic was brutal but I made it in good time.  We all quickly introduced ourselves and George her husband to be, proceeded to tell me how it was lost.  He was proposing on one knee and when he opened the ring box that had a locking latch the ring was gone.  I asked all the questions leading up to where he seen it last. Luckily he remembered it was in his pocket.  So I think that when he pulled the box out of his pants he also brought the ring up with it and lost it in the sand.  

They went and bought a detector but couldn’t find it after an hour or so.  

I had Caroline stand where she thought it could be and George where he was kneeling.  Julia there professional photographer was with us while I searched, she was documenting every step.  

I started to grid the area, first pass two old bullets, second pass a piece of aluminum, third pass 20 feet away from where it was thought to be I got it. A beautiful Platinum 1.2 karat Diamond engagement ring.  

After a few minutes of hooting and hollering.  George redeemed himself and got down on his knee a proposed. Caroline said yes.  It’s very rewarding to be able to be a small part of their special day. Congratulations to you Caroline and George.   A special thank you to Julian for helping them document it.   Sincerely Leighton

Engagement And Wedding Rings Lost In The Old Orchard Beach, Maine Sand, Found With A Metal Detector

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

On Saturday July 5th, Cheryl and I were driving to Ogunquit Maine. As we were driving around 4:30pm my phone rang. I answered and Jared identified himself and told me that his sister had lost her Engagement and Wedding Rings, on the beach, near Union Ave, in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. Jared wanted to know if I was available, to help him. I told him that I personally wasn’t available but that I could get someone to help him. I told him I would call someone and I would have them call his sister. I immediately called Gary Hill and gave Gary the information and Jared sister’s phone number. Gary told me he would call her, asap.

Gary met up with April, at Union Ave and She showed Gary where she thought the rings were. She explained to Gary that she, family and friends had gone to the beach. When they arrived, April took her rings off and applied lotion, on herself. She had placed the rings on her lap, while applying the lotion. April had then forgotten about the rings and gotten up. It wasn’t until later that she realized what had happened, but it was too late. The rings were already buried in the sand.
Gary said he started a grid search and went 25 feet, across the sand. As Gary turned and started back and started back, towards where he started, he immediately received a very nice target, reading an 07, on his Minelab Manticore’s VDI screen. This is a definite gold range target. Gary put his pinpointer in the sand and found his target. Gary then used his hand held sand scoop and out popped the first ring. Gary then rechecked the immediate area and received another target. Another scoop of sand and another ring popped out. WOW!!! Not even 5 minutes and Gary had gotten both rings. Incredible performance by Gary. A lot of people had gathered by then and photos were being taken. Several of the pictures were taken by a stranger who then forwarded them to Gary.
Gary said that April had become very emotional after getting her rings back. April thought they were gone forever and when she saw Gary pull them out of the sand, happy tears flowed. Gary was also very excited and happy for April. There is no better feeling than finding and returning a sentimental item, or two, that the owner thought they would never see again. April then texted me with the following, not knowing Gary had already messaged me

“He found them 🥹🥲 Thank you SO, SO MUCH!!! 🙏🏽”

The Ring Finders of Maine are proud of the service we provide. If I can’t personally get there to search for you, I will get Gary there. We want you to get your lost item back as much as you do. Nothing beats the feeling of seeing a clients smile or tears of joy. It just a great, great feeling. If you don’t believe me, ask Gary❤️🙏

To honor the clients wish, of not showing her face, on social media, I have placed a “Smiley” face, over her face. She said she is still smiling and her “new” face is very appropriate.

18K Yellow Gold Wedding Band Lost, Found and Returned Murrell’s Inlet SC

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

This is part 1 of a 2 part story that started on July 6th, when I saw a FB post from Charlie that said, “Where’s all my treasure hunters at? My wedding band slipped off my finger into shallow water at high tide on the point yesterday. Does anyone have a metal detector to help me look for it? We’re in Inlet Harbor. Low tide is at 11:50 am so that would be our best chance. Thank you!” A contributing factor was he lost it the same day we had a tropical storm go through the area. His post had some naysayers, prayers offered and offers of hope. I copied and pasted my Ring Finder page to his post and waited. Within about 10 minutes, Charlie called and asked if I could help. I told him I could be there in about an hour, he agreed, and I was on my way.

I arrived right around low tide and met Charlie at the house he and his wife Renee were staying. I followed him to his grandfather’s house where I parked. We introduced ourselves and he walked me out to the beach. He pointed out the area, which maybe was a 25X20 foot spot. I got a few more details and went to work. From all the coins, trash, old cans, and fishing weights and hook.   This beach hasn’t been cleaned or detected in a while. Charlie was very confident of his area, so I started a north/south grid line. Most of Charlie’s family had shown up to watch and I heard one gentleman say they had been sitting at the top of the sand. I finished the slope down to the water and no ring. I worked up to the top of the beach, again getting fishing weights and hooks when I got a solid 19 on the VDI (visual display indicator). The 19 indicated to me that I had gold under the coil. I moved some sand and saw the glimmer of gold. I reached down and pulled Charlie’s wedding band out from its hiding place. I held it up for Charlie, Renee and the rest of the family to see. Charlie came over and I handed him his ring. He checked the engraving and confirmed their wedding date was what was engraved. Ring Found!

At one point during the search, I found out that Charlie’s brother-in-law, Cory had lost his gold wedding band. He had lost his on the 4th of July and probably in about waist deep water. I did a search of the upper beach and out in the bay about waist deep. Because of the tide I had to give up on Cory’s ring.   One out of two wasn’t bad.

Charlie and Renee – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. I wish you two all the best.

Jim
