7 Credit Cards and Drivers License Found and Returned in Va Beach VA

  • from Virginia Beach (Virginia, United States)

I was metal detecting the shoreline when i got a good hit. When i dug it up it was a metal case. Upon further investigation I found out it was a metal wallet with 7 credit cards and a drivers license. Even though I did not get a call on this find the ring finders always tries to find the owner! I googled his name off the license and found out he owned an insurance business in Nevada so I called the number and left a message. A few hours later I got a call and was able to get it back! He was headed back to Nevada the next day.

Laine and Mitch were enjoying a beautiful summer day on the beach in Longport, NJ—relaxing, soaking in the sun, and making memories. At some point during their time by the water, Laine had Mitch’s wedding band on her finger, keeping it safe while they swam and played in the sand. But in a split second, that small gesture turned into a stressful moment neither of them expected.

 

While brushing sand off her hands or perhaps during a casual gesture, Laine accidentally flung her hand—and with it, Mitch’s ring. It flew through the air and disappeared into the soft, dry sand. At first, they both thought it would be easy to spot, but as they searched and sifted, it became clear the ring had vanished. Minutes turned into over an hour, and the frustration started to set in. What began as a perfect beach day quickly took a turn.

 

Not ready to give up, Laine began searching online for a solution. That’s when she came across my website—RingFindersSouthJersey.com—and gave me a call. I was already nearby, so I headed straight to Longport to help.

 

When I arrived, I asked Laine and Mitch a few quick questions about how and where the ring might have come off. They had done a great job narrowing down the area, which made my job easier. I turned on my metal detector and began sweeping over the sand where the ring was last seen.

 

To everyone’s surprise—including mine—it only took one swing of the detector before I heard that sweet tone. I knelt down, pushed aside some sand, and there it was—Mitch’s wedding band! It had only been inches beneath the surface, but just far enough to stay hidden from plain sight.

 

The look of relief on their faces said it all. Mitch smiled from ear to ear, and Laine couldn’t stop thanking me. It was a simple recovery, but for them, it meant everything. That ring held sentimental value and symbolized something far greater than just jewelry—it was their commitment to each other.

 

Another successful ring recovery in Longport, NJ, and another happy couple reunited with their lost treasure. Whether it’s a beach in Longport, Ocean City, or anywhere in South Jersey, I’m always ready to help bring your lost items back where they belong.

If you’ve lost a ring or valuable item in the sand or surf, don’t panic. Give me a call at Ring Finders South Jersey I’ll do everything I can to recover what you thought was lost forever.

 

 

Platinum Wedding Band Lost While Cutting Yard-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

Kevin had contacted me and said he had lost his wedding band in the yard while cutting the grass. They had looked for it for a couple of days but the weeds in that area were quite tall and finding a ring visually was out of the question. I found the ring in an area where the weeds were around eight inches tall. Total search time was around an hour.

 

 

 

Gold Wedding Band Lost Right After Wedding-Found!

Linsey called me and said they had held a wedding venue in their yard for their daughter and son-in-law. Her yard was quite large and her son-in-law had lost his ring right after the wedding. She had purchased a metal detector but struck out.  Because of the size of the yard I set up a grid search and it took me all of two hours before I found it. Her daughter and son-in-law were out of town at the time.

Lost Wedding Ring Found – Franklinton

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a text from Julie, who explained that her husband had lost his rings. Rings plural? She explained that there were two rings that had been lost – one 5 1/2 years ago and a replacement ring that was lost a few days ago (more on that in a minute). It was the replacement ring that she had texted me about. They had searched for the original ring and been unable to find it.. I made the hour’s drive to her house and she explained the situation a little further. The newly lost ring (the replacement) had been tossed (long story) and Julie showed me the area of the woods where she thought it would have landed.

Julie then explained that right after they moved into this house 5 1/2 years earlier, their two dogs stumbled onto a yellow jacket nest in the woods. Julie grabbed one of the dogs and started to address that problem while her husband went after the other dog. The yellow jackets attacked him as well and in the process of swatting them away as he ran toward the house, his ring came off. They had looked for it at the time, but were unable to locate it. So, first ring lost 5 1/2 years earlier and replacement ring lost two days ago.

I spent probably two hours scouring the woods where she had pointed me, but no ring. Nails, bottle caps, pop tops, and other common things, but no ring. After talking with Julie again, we decided that moving the search closer to the house (into the yard) would be a good strategy. I turned my machine back on and almost immediately Julie yelled that she had found the replacement ring. I was disappointed that I hadn’t found it, but since the main thing is to get the owner and the lost item back together, it was still a great outcome. With the replacement ring found, I started looking for the “original”. I was only able to spend about 30 min that day, but promised to come back and try again.

On my return visit, I started where the yellow jacket nest had been and slowly worked my way toward the house. After about an hour of searching, I got a solid signal and uncovered the original ring. During the time between loss and recovery, it had sunk 3 or so inches down into the dirt and was additionally covered by leaf litter. The picture shows the ring and an excited Julie. Another happy ending!

Diamond Ring Lost While Swimming…Found!

The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

On the 18th of June Corrine lost her diamond ring while taking a swim test at a local lake.  She spent plenty of time searching the bottom for the missing ring with no luck.  At some point in the panic of the moment she entered the situation into ChatGPT on her phone.  This resulted in providing a link to THERINGFINDERS.COM and directly to me.

As it happened, I had two constraints to providing immediate support.  First, I was out of town with the family visiting relatives.  The second issue was that my Equinox 800 was still awaiting a new control box after damages accrued while providing support on a dive recovery.  I would also need to reach out to the local parks department for permission to enter the water with a metal detector.

A few days later, these constraints had worked their way out and we scheduled the search.  I would be teaming up with Mark (a member of the MDMDC) and Evan (scuba diver) would be tagging along for support as well.  Members of the parks department would escort our small team to the lake shore to prepare and within minutes of entering the water…We Made The Recovery!!!

The ring was successfully recovered in 3 feet of water in the precise location Corrine said it would be.  It was as easy as they come and all parties were ecstatic for a speedy success.  I can’t thank everyone involved enough for playing their part in getting this diamond ring back to it’s rightful owner.  Thank you very kindly.

Found Wedding Ring in Northern Vermont

  • from Barre (Vermont, United States)
Contact:

6/21/25

I got a voicemail on 6/16 from a lady whose husband had recently lost his wedding ring. He is a farmer who works 7 days a week and covers a lot of ground around their huge farm.

His wife did some absolutely incredible detective work to try to narrow down the area that he might have lost it. He hadn’t felt it fall off. They have several security cameras, so she decided to go through all the footage. She finally found that he had his ring on when they were doing some things in a side yard and behind a building, and a little while later it could be seen that it was missing from his finger. So, that gave them an idea where to search.

Not knowing about my service yet, they ordered a metal detector from the internet. Without having experience with a detector, and being an area jam packed with signals, they had no luck with it. She also spent many hours visually searching for it in the daytime and with a bright flashlight at night.

I went over this morning early because I thought it may be a difficult search. She showed me the areas and I got started. Unfortunately, her husband was too busy to accompany us. The ground was loaded with signals, but in about 10 minutes I got a promising surface signal. I pushed the pinpointer into the thick grass and there it was! Wow, was she happy!! She wasn’t sure if they would ever see it again!

Diamond Ring Lost for 7 Months Near Cottonwood Heights, Utah- Found

I received a call from Sara about her lost diamond wedding ring. Apparently her daughter was playing dress up in the front yard and asked to borrow it. Shortly after coming into the house she told Sara that she had lost it outside. For 6-7 months they search the yard for it and in desperation to find it, she called me. I went over to her house with my son and after getting the rough area to search, went to work. My first signal was a high tone from a brass sprinkler head. At the end of my first pass, I got a nice 8-11 on my detector that was pretty close to the surface. After pulling back the grass a little bit, I could make out the edge of something. Sure enough it was her ring that had been lost for nearly 7 months. The whole experience was under 5 minutes and she was sure excited to see her ring again!
