Lost Gold Hawaiian Ring at Pounder’s Beach La’ie…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began on Monday when I got a text from Angelica who lives in Kalihi on Oahu, her text said, “hi! i lost this ring in the area circled in red of Pounder’s Beach in La’ie last Saturday night, March 29.  would you be able to find it?”  I called Angelica to get some details and she had been kneeling in shallow water along the shoreline when her ring came off and disappeared in the waves.  I checked the surf and tide report and decided Thursday afternoon would be ideal.  The next day she texted, i’ve had a change of mind–i’m just gonna let my ring stay lost there haha.  I didn’t know what to think but decided since I had never detected that beach I would give it a shot on my own.  I went Thursday after work.  Driving up the East coast of Oahu is always breath taking with the steep Koolau Mountains on one side and the ocean on the other.  After arriving I hiked down the beach to the far end where Angelica lost her ring and had circled in red in her picture.  It was a little rough from the North swell wrap but doable.  Thankfully not too much trash on this desolate beach so targets were minimal.  After about 30 minutes and nearing the end of where I was going to search, I got a nice tone on the Manticore.  It was near some lava rocks so I wasn’t expecting much.  On the third scoop, low and behold there was Angelica’s pretty Hawaiian Ring in the scoop.  Thank you , Jesus!  I went back to my car and sent Angelica a pic asking, “Look like this?”  yes! you went to find it?  I called her and let her know the good news and since she is busy with college stuff, we agreed she would swing by my home on Sunday for the return.  Her priorities are perfect, “School first”.   Aloha to Angelica!

LOST GOLD 750 CARTIER RING in RALEIGH, NC…… FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Barley got home and a young lady texted me saying she had lost her gold 750 Cartier ring in Raleigh while playing in an outdoor beach volleyball tournament.

She said she lost it while making a play on the ball. She felt it slide off. She said she went back today with a metaldetecter and couldn’t find it.

She asked when I could come and find it for her. So, of course I said, “Give me 10 mins and I’ll be on the road!”

When I arrived there were a group of people playing volleyball so I had to wait. As soon as they were done, my first signal in the corner of the playing area was her ring.

Today was 2-2 gold ring kind of day!!!

LOST 18K DIAMOND RING in NEW LONDON, NC……FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Received a call the other day from a gentleman whose wife had lost an 18k gold ring about two years ago. He asked if I could come and try to find it. I was currently working that day, but I said I would come first thing Sunday when I was off. I get to the house meet his wife and she begins to show me where she was at and what she was doing the day she lost her ring. I began to search, I was hearing many signals, but I got a good signal under a holly bush tree move back the dirt and I could see a gold circle. I stood up, looked over at her and said I think I just found your ring. The smile and the excitement on her face said it all. She was beside herself with joy. She couldn’t believe that after two years, she was reunited with a ring that she’s so cherished.

After finding the ring, we stood in the driveway talking about the ring. They shared with me that it was a custom ring made in New York. The jewelry company name was seven fingers. Because the jeweler only had seven fingers.

I love putting smiles back on peoples faces!!

Lost Gold Ring Found Inside Vehicle in New Baltimore Michigan

Stow-Away Survivor……

Stowaway/Stow-Away situations come in many forms, those involving people usually end tragically but a few live to talk about it. People who Stow-Away items hoping to return later to recover them are often victims of time or an unforeseen occurrence which prevents that from happening. What happened to Jacob’s fiancée’s ring? Would it suffer the same fate of never knowing where it disappeared? It all started when Jacob and fiancée were visiting family to work on a project. With overalls on the Fiancée was eager to get to work and spend time with the family. Moving in and out of the house, playing tug of war with the dogs, she thought she had the ring on out with the dogs and then she thought she put her ring into one of the overalls pockets. End of the day had her changing out of the overalls and driving to dinner with her thinking she put the ring back on. Next morning the ring was nowhere to be found. For over a week they looked for the ring with no luck. On site I metal detected with my MXT metal detector over the bare looking ground and a few leaf piles where she remembers being. No Signals. The only place yet to check was her vehicle and the overalls. When she arrived and found out the ring was still missing, she started to get really stressed. I scanned over the overalls with no ring signal. Proceeding to the vehicle I was reaching around and felt a round shaped object in a difficult place to access. Changing up my position I was able to reach further and grasp the whole object, which happened to be her ring! She screamed with excitement when I handed it to her and Jacob exclaimed it’s been riding around with us all week! I said yes!,,,,, a successful recovery of a stow-away you’ll be able to talk about for years to come!

Lost Gold Hawaiian Ring at Aulani Kohola Lagoon Ko Olina resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began a few days ago when I was contacted by Jennifer who lives on Oahu.  While enjoying the waters of Aulani Kohola Lagoon with her daughter while standing in waist deep water her daughter’s Yellow Gold Hawaiian Style Ring fell off into the water and disappeared.  They tried searching for the ring but it was useless as the water was losing it’s visibility.  I left for Ko Olina after work and Jennifer sent me some excellent pics of the area for conducting my search.  After 45 minutes and expanding the grid in every direction I told Jennifer it wasn’t in the box and she and I assumed a snorkeler probably spotted it.  She let the beach team know in case someone turned it in.  That brings me to this morning’s low tide and I was hunting Kohola Lagoon.  Out in neck deep water I got a screaming target on the Manticore and in one scoop there was Jennifer’s amazing Hawaiian Gold Ring.  It was quite far off the location I hunted so I rushed back to my car to confirm the ring as I had an exact picture.  Sure enough it was. Blessed again!  As you can see Jennifer was very excited to get the ring back and she met me at Aulani for the return.  Hugs of joy!  Aloha to Jennifer!

Wedding Ring lost on the Beach, Sea Bright NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

It was a perfect beach day, so John and Pat decided to make the most of it. They packed up their beach gear and headed out early to soak up some rays. John was enjoying the waves when he realized his wedding ring was missing. He looked for quite some time, without any luck, and thats when his wife Pat, decided to make a call to me NJ Ring Finder. With the ring being lost in the waves, it was imperative I head right out, but there were some violent storms surrounding the entire Jersey Shore area. I will do many crazy things to recover items, but will never go to the beach with any lightning in the area. I waited for the storm to pass by and headed out to the spot. I started around mid tide and worked up higher without any luck. As I was looking around I noticed there was another person very close with a metal detector that possibly could have found this ring. By then John had arrived and confirmed I was in the right spot. I showed him the other person, and suggested he scoot over and ask him if he happened to find a ring. I continued searching and just a few seconds later my machine sounded off that sweet low tone of GOLD. Sure enough, Johns ring was in my scoop, so I whistled to get his attention before he had gotten over to the other metal detector person. John was amazed I was able to find his ring, and quickly messaged his wife Pat to tell her the good news. Another fantastic recovery for NJ Ring Finder in 2024 !!!!

Silver ring lost on sand volleyball court, Orlando, Florida…found with a metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



If you lost something important to you…like a ring or keys or cell phone on land or in the water or even in your car…call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk. I can answer any questions you may have about my recovery service and am available day or night! Call or text me ASAP!

Everett was playing volleyball with some friends at their private community facility and as he went to hit the ball he felt his heavy silver ring slip off of his finger! Unfortunately no one saw exactly where it landed as it happened so fast. Everett was sure it landed fairly close to where he was standing so they tried running their hands through the sand and after an hour or so they gave up. Everett thought that maybe there was some kind of service that could help in a situation like this so he looked up “Metal detecting person near me” and that search led him to theringfinders.com website.

It was getting on towards evening so I told Everett I could come right away and after a 40 minute drive I met Everett and he showed me the area. I began my search on the same side of the court where Everett was standing and after clearing all the coins and pull tabs I crossed over to the opposite side of the court and as I was finishing gridding that side off I got a strong signal reading in the 90’s on my Deus 2 metal detector. Everett’s lost ring was just under the surface and I found it surprising just how far a heavy ring can travel with only the flip of the wrist! Everett was so thankful to have his special ring back and was all smiles as he posed for some last minute pictures.

Have you lost something as well and need special help? Call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk!

IPhone Lost in the Dry Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

IPhone Lost in the Dry Sand, Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

Shortly before 3 p.m. on Apr 4th, I received a call from Magen asking if I could find an IPhone on the beach. I responded I could and got additional details. I told her I could be there in about 30-40 minutes, she agreed, and I was on my way.

Magen had given me the code for the parking garage, so I had a place to park when I got there. I met Magen by the hotel pool, and we walked to the beach. On the way, Magen told me her 11-year-old daughter had been making sandcastles and had laid her phone on the sand. At some point they realized the phone had disappeared.  Magen knew the area where it was lost. She said they had actually drugged their feet through the area trying to find the phone. I started the search a little south and after a few lines, Magen moved me a little further north. I hadn’t gotten a description of the phone, figuring it was probably the only phone that’d be out there. At some point and unknowingly, my phone fell off my hip. As I’m searching, a young man came up behind me and asked if I was looking for a phone. I said I was, and he handed me a phone he just found. Well, not paying a lot of attention to the phone, I asked Magen If it was her daughter’s phone. When she said “no”, I realized I was holding my own phone. To say I was totally embarrassed is an understatement!!! After a couple more grid lines, I hit her daughter’s phone buried under a few inches of sand. A dance competition weekend saved.

Magen – Thanks for allowing me to help find your daughter’s IPhone. Hope you all have a great weekend and her team does great.

Lost – Men’s Gold/Platinum Heirloom Ring – Daytona Beach, FL – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Here I was before dawn, on the edge of the ocean looking for a ring that I was not called to find.  On the drive over, I prayed that I could locate the ring.  I had seen it listed on Tuesday evening, but I had to be out of town on Wednesday.  I contacted Allison the previous evening and she said that her husband could call me at 7:30 am.  While I was waiting for the call, I scoured the dead low-tide sand with my trusty Minelab Manticore with the led light on.

When Cody called, he said they were there on Monday and set up between the stairs and ADA walk-down ramp.  They went into the water but not very deep and only went about 50 feet North.  I told him that I was confident that if it was there, I would find it.

I covered all the water areas first because the tide was coming in fast.  I proceeded up the beach and into the area where they had been sitting on the beach.  Nothing but a few coins and some trash.

By this time, it was almost 9 am and I was detecting the area between the stairs for the 3rd time.  As I looked under the stairs, I sensed that I should go to the other side.  An immediate and solid hit!  It was the ring, where it should not have been but was.

All rings have a story and this one was no different; passed down from Allison’s late father!  Later that day I had the privilege to give the ring to Cody!  God is good-he had guided me when I needed him most.

A Love Ring’s Journey: A Beach Recovery Story

The waves lapped gently at the Ocean City shoreline as Ken made his way to the water’s edge. It was supposed to be a perfect weekend getaway with his girlfriend, soaking up the New Jersey sun and salt air. But sometimes life has other plans.

Ken had just wanted to rinse the stubborn beach sand from his hands. A simple task — until he felt that heart-stopping moment when his Cartier LOVE ring, usually snug on his finger, wasn’t there anymore. The panic set in immediately.

The couple spent frantic minutes sifting through the sand, their romantic afternoon turning into an increasingly desperate search. The ring could have been anywhere: in the soft sand where they’d been sitting, or worse, pulled away by the ocean’s persistent tide.

That’s when they remembered hearing about Ring Finders South Jersey, finding lost rings in Ocean City, New Jersey. One phone call later, help was on the way.

Within fifteen minutes, their metal-detecting expert arrived, ready to tackle the search. The first sweep of the ocean proved fruitless, but experience had taught him not to give up so easily. Moving back to where the couple had been lounging earlier, it took just a few passes with the detector. The gleaming Cartier ring appeared in the scoop, safe and sound.

What could have been a weekend remembered for loss became a story of relief and gratitude. The couple’s smiles said it all: sometimes the best moments are not the ones we plan. The ones where things work out just when we need them to.

If you have lost a ring read some helpful advice on how to find it here Ocean City Lost Ring.
