Gold Bracelet and Gold and Emerald Earrings Lost in the Sand at Manhattan Beach…Found and Happily Returned

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

If you have lost anything important to you, please call right away, don’t wait because time will work against you. Steve Smith 310-953-5268

Olivia called me asking if I could help her. She had been at the beach with a friend. She wisely removed her jewelry to go into the water, and put them on her towel. What happened next was that her friend lifted the towel not knowing the jewelry was there, and they were lost in the sand. I let her know I would leave right away for the search.

When I got to the beach Olivia was not there yet, so I began my search in the area described. It took about 5 minutes, and I had her bracelet, and both her earrings. I waited for her to get to the search site, and was able to give them all back at that time. She informed me that the earrings were a gift from her mother, which made them extra special. A great recovery!

 

Lost engagement ring in the river

  • from Mount Pleasant (Michigan, United States)

I found this young ladies platinum engagement ring in the Chippewa river today. She lost it while kayaking and was sitting on the bank with her hands in the sand. She also said she was out of the kayak to get around some rapids. Rather than go to that spot, I figured it was more likely that she lost it while she was sitting on the bank. Sure enough she took me to that spot, which was behind a church. We just waded across the river and about 15 to 20 seconds later, I had her ring in my scoop. She was very happy to have the ring back. I told her that it is hardly ever that easy.

Ring Found At South Haven, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)

Misty posted on Facebook that her son lost his copper ring at Pilgram Haven while swimming in Lake Michigan.  After 5 days with nobody willing to help find his ring I gave it a shot and found his ring in about an hour.  They were visiting West Michigan from their home in Fort Wayne, Ind.  There are rings that are priceless even though they are not worth much in monetary value.  The picture is the spot where the ring was found, 30 paces from the shore and in about waist deep water.  They were camping in the area so Misty stopped by to pickup the ring.  The smile says it all and it made my day.

Huge gold chain lost and found in Apsley Ontario

Received a text from Lou yesterday about him having lost his gold chain while swimming. Lou, and his young family, had rented a cottage near Apsley on Chandos lake. While playing with the kids, he did a few dives off the dock only to realize later that his huge gold chain was no longer around his neck. After arriving early this morning and getting situated, I got in the water and went to work with my Excalibur II under water metal detector. After eliminating a few trash signals, I heard the sweet tone of gold and found his chain within ten minutes. Although the chain is very valuable due to the size and weight, it is priceless as it was given to him by his grandmother. Another happy ending.

White Gold Wedding Ring lost and found in Hampshire, Illinois.

  • from Rockford (Illinois, United States)

I received a text message from Nick today (6-28-2025) about 4 o’clock in the afternoon, asking if I still metal detected for lost rings.
I responded, “Yes, I do.”
He went on to tell me that he thinks that he might have lost it at the ball diamonds earlier this morning while coaching his daughters softball team. So we set up a time to meet around 7 p.m. at the ballfields. When I arrived, Nick showed me where they had practiced earlier in the day. Nick and his wife spent a few hours searching the diamond for Nick’s lost ring, with no luck. That’s when Nick found a Reddit post about @theringfinders and a successful search that took place in Nebraska. Nick then searched out The Ring Finders .com and found me there and reached out from there. I started by searching the piles of dirt that Nick had raked up. Oh, did I mention that Nick and his wife had raked the entire infield by hand, looking for his ring!! Unfortunately, to no avail. So I then did an entire grid search on the infield, again to no avail. That’s when Nick suggested that I search the small grass strip in front of the dugout. So I started behind home plate and started searching towards 3rd base as Nick followed along. About half way to 3rd I got the sound I was waiting for! A double tapping low tone! The DĒUS II VDI display was flashing a solid 58! As I looked down at the ground I could see Nick’s 10K white gold wedding ring laying in the grass!

Success!!
Another smile for the book! 😁👍🏼

Lost wedding ring found in Camden, Maine

  • from Rockport (Maine, United States)

I received a call that a bachelorette party weekend had taken a turn for the worst when Amy, a bridesmaid had lost her wedding ring in near by Megunticook Lake. With my tear away policeman costume and Chippendale Speedo, bow tie, and wrist cuff ensemble, unfortunately out to the dry cleaners, I instead grabbed my scuba diving metal detectorist outfit and headed to the scene to bring the mood back up. I was greeted with hoots and hollers upon my arrival and then again when I surfaced from the lake a short time later busting my signature move of holding up the lost ring with a big smile. Remember, if you happen to lose a ring in the lake at a bachelorette party, it should not stay lost in the lake at a bachelorette party. Contact The Ring Finders.
