Necklace lost at Mission Beach found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Aaron was body surfing when a wave blew over his head and ruthlessly stripped him of his gold necklace. Aaron realized it immediately and tried to recover it, but, at the same time, the lifeguards were telling everyone to leave the water due to a large rip current. Reluctantly, Aaron left the water and contemplated what to do to get it back. An online search brought him to TheRingFinders.com and my contact info. When he called, I got the situation and made a plan to conduct a search early the next morning to take advantage of the -1.1 low tide. My buddy Cris and I met Aaron at the site at 3:45am and divided up the search area after Aaron got us a starting point. I started gridding east/west working my way south. while Cris did a north/south grid. After some time passed without much in the way of targets, I went back to my starting point and started going north. After a few passes and at the west end of one pass in as deep a surf as I dared, I got a nice solid 12 on my Equinox 900. Two scoops later and I had the target. I grabbed the lump still buried in the sand of my scoop and headed out of the surf to see what it was. It felt good, but, without my headlamp turned on at the time, I wanted to get out of the water and take a look before I let go of it. I walked out toward Cris who had his headlamp on and revealed what I had found. Sure enough, it was a gold looking chain. A quick flush in the water to remove the sand and we had Aaron’s beautiful gold necklace in hand. Needless to say, Aaron was a very happy man and thanked us profusely. A pleasure to meet you Aaron and thank you for the generous reward.

Lost Ring Found in Westerly RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from John asking for my help.  He had lost his wedding band while swimming in the ocean in Westerly, RI. He and his wife live in NJ and were on vacation at a beach house with family. John told me that the day before there were big waves, and he felt his ring fall off in the water.  The tide was coming in, but I was willing to give it a shot.  After searching for a couple hours without any luck, I decided to return the next day at low tide.  The following day, I searched in the water and still didn’t have any luck finding the ring. I decided to search the beach and found John’s ring buried in the sand.  He couldn’t believe that I found his ring and was so happy to have it back.

Wedding AND Engagement Rings Lost & Found On Swanage Beach

  • from Bournemouth (England, United Kingdom)
Contact:

Hayley & her family from Wiltshire were enjoying a break in Swanage. With the rings placed securely through the necklace she was wearing, nothing could go wrong?! Whilst in the water the chain got yanked and broke – she managed to save the chain but the rings disappeared into a few feet of water.

I searched up and down for a good hour until the unmistakable sound of gold sang through my headphones. Just a yard away, another!

She was overjoyed to have them both back & made the long drive down to Swanage the very next day to collect the rings. Hayley made a kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Rescue Charity.

Mens Padium Wedding Band Lost & Found On Swanage Beach

  • from Bournemouth (England, United Kingdom)
Contact:

Me with Jonathons friend who guided me to the area.

Jonathon & family from Portsmouth were spending a few days in Swanage on a mini break until disaster struck. Whilst playing in about 3 feet of water he felt his wedding band slip from his finger. He tried desparately to catch it but it was too late.

When he called the Ringfinders.com I was away on business & he had to wait a grueling three days before I could search. Rather than risk time drifting away awaiting a low tide I took my chances and searched as soon as I  returned from being away. After only 15 minutes the detector gave an almighty scream as I struck gold. This was aided by the fact that his friends who with him the day he lost it happened to be on the beach that day & narrowed the search area.

I returned the ring to him by post & he commented he was “VERY happy to have it back”. Jonathon made a kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Rescue at Church Knowle, Dorset.

One of four property markers that professional metal detectorist and owner of METAL DETECTING ADVENTURES INC, Brian Rudolph, successfully located, identified, tagged and flagged.

Brian Rudolph posing by one of the four property stakes that the detectorist was able to successfully locate.

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses & Vehicles) Will Find Your Lost Keepsake! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

Rodney of Fredericksburg, Virginia found me online and read many of my reviews that stated positive feedback regarding helping clients locate their property markers.

My client was in need of putting up a fence because the neighborhood kids would kick their soccer balls up against his house and it was becoming extremely irritating for Rodney.

This homeowner spoke with a surveyor and was quoted an astronomical price for identifying the location of the lost property stakes. After talking with me about the project, Rodney was convinced that I was the best choice for saving money and getting the job done correctly.

I drove to Fredericksburg, Virginia and located, identified, tagged and flagged four essential property markers for my most grateful client! Rodney was extremely satisfied with my work and without quickly I was able to identify each and every stake that was hidden below the ground!

Dauphin Island – Lost diamond ring

  • from Mobile (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Todd asking if I found rings. Well, yes sir, I do my best – tell me your story.

Todd and his wife were visiting Dauphin Island from Arkansas and this was their second day here. His wife had put her wedding ring on the chair and then accidentally knocked it off. He shared with me that they had been crawling around on hands and knees for a couple of hours looking for it.  They weren’t far away from me so I was there within 15 min.

Todd met me and took me down to the beach where they had set up. Fortunately it was a beach house that wasn’t on the public beach, and it was a fairly narrow strip of sand. The chairs had already been removed, so Todd pointed me to the area they had been sifting the sand with their fingers. It was hot as blue blazes outside with an excessive heat warning that day so I uttered a quick prayer that this would be an easy recovery ! Not to mention I was also recovering from a bout with Covid and my stamina and energy was definitely not back up to normal yet.

I set out with my trusty Minelab Equinox 900, mentally mapped out an area to grid, and started swinging. I warned Todd that pull tabs sound a little like rings and told him don’t get too excited if I scooped a target. Less than a dozen swings of my coil, I got a promising signal. A few gentle shakes of my scoop and there was his wife’s ring. Thankfully one of my easiest recoveries yet and another beach vacation saved !

Lost unique white gold ring with diamond…Found at Baker Beach!!!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)
Contact:

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

I contacted Debra early on Wednesday after reviewing a Craigslist post about a lost white gold ring with a diamond.  She had been on Baker Beach when the ring went missing and after talking with her I could tell that it was troubling her.

I sent her a link to THERINGFINDERS.COM site and agreed to search for the ring the following Saturday.  She agreed and was very thankful for my offer.  Later that evening my good friend Jes Muse, founder of The Bay Area Bleepers (check it out) sent over the post suggesting that I perform the search as she would be out of town.

I woke up at 4:30 Saturday morning, packed my gear, and made the hour drive to the coast.  When I arrived, there were few people on the beach and at one point I shared the beach with no one but three coyotes.  The fog was thick, so much so that it fell like rain and the sand had a thin wet layer on top.  I opened up a photo that Debra was kind enough to mark up of the area that would become the search zone.  The detecting was difficult with seemingly never ending targets hid beneath my grid pattern.  I cleared handfuls of trash from the beach as I searched.  And then, a ring!  Sadly not the ring I was there for, but a happy consolation.

After about two hours of searching, I decided to call Debra and give her an update and to get a better account of where she might have been.  As it turned out, I was working away from where she had been and after a 20 yard course correction and pockets full of trash, I hit an 8-9 VDI (visual display indicator) that sounded very promising on the equinox. In one scoop I had the item, but it had not revealed itself.  I’m happy to announce, WE MADE THE RECOVERY!!!

The exciting part was yet to come.  I took a few photographs of the ring and the beach and sent them on to Debra.  The next thing I did was gave her a call and when she answered I simply asked if she had gotten my photos.  She admitted she had not but went straight to them.  That is when I got my payout!!!  She was so extremely excited that I could feel it through the phone.  It’s a feeling like no other.

   

After our celebration over the phone, I agreed to drop off the ring on my way home.  She lived along the route I would travel home and I was excited to get to meet her.  I quickly packed the gear and 45 minutes later the ring was back with Mrs. Debra.

It takes a lot of trust for someone to disclose a bunch of details about their missing valuables, especially when they are so sentimental.  Thank you Debra for putting your trust in me to assist you in the recovery of your unique and beautiful ring and for your generosity!  It was a pleasure to meet you and I wish you the very best in your future!
