Lost Bracelet Found Under a Deck! Groton Long Point, CT

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

A lost bracelet was found in Groton Long Point, Connecticut! Decades ago this gold bracelet was given to Mary as a gift from her husband. She has rarely worn the bracelet for fear of losing it. One afternoon she was exiting her back door while wearing the bracelet, and it got caught on the screen door. She felt the bracelet pull off and immediately looked down to see an empty deck. She knew it had fallen between the deck planks but could not quite pinpoint the area and was having trouble accessing the tight crawl space under the deck. After some careful peeking through the deck boards with a cell phone flashlight, I was able the see a glimmer of gold (photos below)! I left my phone light shining through the planks this way I would know the correct area once I crawled into the tight dark space under the deck. Mary finally had her sentimental gold bracelet back after being lost for months!

Lost Wedding Ring Found in the Sand! Watch Hill, RI Westerly, RI

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

A lost ring was found in Watch Hill RI! This sentimental wedding ring was lost while a family was taking their annual visit to the Westerly RI beaches. Dad took off the ring put sunscreen on and dropped the ring in the sand. They didn’t realize the ring was missing for quite some time. But when they did, this was a painful loss as the ring contained a diamond from his late parents’ engagement ring and a diamond from another sentimental piece of jewelry. The family had lots of photos and descriptions from their day at the beach so I was able to find the general location. After a few hours and finding bottle caps and other beach trash, under my metal detector, I saw the distinct round outline of a wedding ring in the sand! I knew this was a unique wedding band so as soon as I brushed the sand off and saw the two diamonds, I knew I had the lost ring. I immediately sent a photo to the family and they were ecstatic! Check out the surprise reaction in the video link below!

Ring Lost Minnesota recovered Metal Detecting Scuba Diving

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)
Contact:

Gracie & Justin traveled back to Minnesota from the Oregon/Washington area to get married and celebrate with their family members. After the wedding, they all traveled up north to a lake to enjoy some time together. Justin was out swimming with his niece when he felt his wedding ring slip off his finger. He was in 10 feet deep of water and about 20 feet from the dock. They quickly marked the spot with an anchor and a float, which is exactly what you should do. They took some pictures and started searching for someone to help dive for the lost ring. They found the theringfinders.com web site and contacted me. I am over 3 hours from the lake, so we were trying to schedule the dive as soon as possible. While planning, they found another diver much closer who volunteered to give it a try. The diver was unable to recover the ring and only found a few cans. Gracie’s dad also found the lakes area dive club which operated out of that area. They sent a couple divers over and tried for a few hours, again no ring and just a few cans. So, Gracie reached back out to me, and we set up a time for one final search. I arrived at the lake, the sun was shining, and it was a beautiful day with temps in the low 80’s. Perfect dive weather. I studied the pictures they took previously and walked to the end of the dock. I threw an old ring I had into the lake at the spot they had marked with the anchor and float. (They had to remove the anchor and float when they left the resort) – I started my search and there were “signals” all over the place. I had to come up and empty my “trash bag” 3 times as it was completely full. After a couple hours of removing trash, I found my ring deep in the bottom silt. I swung my detector about a foot and got another nice hit. It was Justin’s Gold Ring!!! The ring was about a foot deep into the muck. After the dive I counted all the targets I had to remove, there were 117 total including: Beer cans, pop cans, paint cans, pop tops, fireworks parts, fishing lures, coins, fishing reels etc. I’m not putting anyone down, though I just want to point out how important it is to get an experienced ring finder when searching the internet for help. Metal detecting is a lot more in-depth than people think. It takes years of practice to know what the machine is telling you and how to properly recover targets. Congratulations to Gracie & Justin on getting their ring back, truly glad I could help!!!

Lost necklace in the sand, Brant Beach NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

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

Larry sent me a message later in the evening about his sons cross and chain that were lost in the sand on LBI that day. He was sure of the location but was unable to find them because apparently they sunk deep into the sand. It was pretty late to go that night, so we arranged to meet EARLY the next morning. He drew me a map with all the details to where he and his family were set up, including approximate measurements from all fixed landmarks. I arrived around 5AM and headed out to the spot that was marked. I started to grid out one area when I saw the headlights of the beach rake, knowing my time was limited, quickly working the first spot with no luck. I checked my map again and decided to move south about 20′ and Bingo!!! there it was. Luckily the beach rake had only made 1 pass along the high tide line, before I was able to locate his sons beautiful chain and cross. I guess we could def. call it a “treasure map”. Just as I was snapping a few pics Larry was walking down the dune walkover, and was totally amazed I found them already. Another happy ending.

Lost Gold Ring on a Busy Beach Day at Huntington State Beach .. Doesn’t Hamper Recovery

If You need help finding a ring or other valuable Call or Text .. Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

*** I was a very summer day in Southern California and the beaches were packed. Finlay and his family were at Huntington State Beach when he lost his gold wedding band while brushing off sand with his hand. They search a small area for more than an hour before conceding that it was an futile task without the proper equipment.

While scanning the internet for a place to rent or buy a metal detector they found my contact information. He called, I got the location and was on the road. Even though it was less than 5 miles away. The line of cars waiting to get into the State Beach was more than a mile long at all three entrances. 

Plan “B” for beach access on days like this is to use my Segway. I found parking a couple miles south and rode the Segway to the location, using the bicycle/ pedestrian path. 

We connected by using the cellphone. The search area was small so the recovery was quick. They were a very grateful couple and it was my pleasures to be available to help them. We also have to remember how modern day technologies helped make this possible.

I am ready to help you now with any questions about this service call now I will pick up .. Stan … 949-500-2136.

It’s been some time since we posted our finds online – we’ve been ring-finding all along but got way behind on reporting our ring and treasure recoveries!

Here’s a photo of a newly-wed who lost his ring in the water at the Fairmont Orchid Hotel, Waikoloa Beach, Hawaii.

He’d been married for 2 days…Thankfully he felt it come off his finger in the water so it was only a matter of seconds for me to find it!

How To Find a Lost Wedding Ring? In Post Falls, Idaho… Found It!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)
Contact:

Sometimes problems randomly come your way. Sometimes you create them by your own hand and they smack you in the face. For Brandon that hand that created his problem, now sat hovering over a keyboard. The word Brandon was searching for escaped his vocabulary. So he asked Google “what do you call a person who metal detects?” “A detectorist “, Google answered. Brandon now had a title to call someone who metal detects. Now he needed a name to go with that title. Google gave him mine and Brandon called me. Brandon asked me if I am able to be hired or rent out my metal detector? I told him “I was a professional metal detector specialist and yes you can hire me”. Continuing the conversation we discussed his situation.  Without hesitating Brandon told me he threw his ring, and no he wasn’t playing baseball. After setting up a date a few days ago, I finally made it out to his house. We sized up the search area, which was on the other side of the street in the neighbor’s yard. After swinging over all of the bushes Brandon showed me his best guess as to the splash down spot of the ring. I grid searched that area. Then began to grid search the two conjoined yard of Brandon’s neighbors. After Brandon had to take off to an a.m. appointment, his neighbor and I had a friendly conversation while I searched. Just as we were discussing the economy, I got a solid 20-21 vdi. Looking down I could see a dark rim poking through the grass. With complete shock and disbelief picked up his ring and realized his ring sat where it landed in the middle of the yard for a month. Lawn mowers, rain, and people all had been near and on top of that ring. However it remained untouched until I swung over it. What a crazy story that ring could tell if it could talk. Happily ever after would be it’s final words as Brandon slipped it back on his finger. Thank you man for trusting in The Ring Finders. Also being so happy, even after I did a Chris Turner fake out on you while giving the ring back.

Lost Rental Car Keys and Cellphone Buried in Sand at Huntington Beach Found for Visitor from New York

Stan the Metal Detector Man available to help you now .. Call or Text 949-500-2136 for prompt service.

** Seol was visiting Huntington Beach, CA. from New York. This was her last day in Southern California so she wanted to take a swim in the Pacific Ocean. She was not comfortable leaving her cellphone and rental car keys on her towel, so she buried them in the sand at the edge of her towel.  

After her short swim, she came back grabbing her towel to dry off. A few minutes passed before remembering that her important business cellphone and her rental car keys were buried in the sand. She spent a couple hours trying to find them. Someone told her about my service and let her use his phone to call me. 

I met Seol on the beach and was able to help her locate both the cellphone and her rental car keys shortly after arriving. Such a nice lady and a pleasure to help her. Basically she was here alone and didn’t not have and friends or family to help her.  Not having a cellphone would make everything more difficult.  To top it off, her wallet and identification were locked in the car . It would have been a mess trying to replace those items, especially as she had to fly back to New York the next day.

Excuse the photo as Seol was having a bad hair day. Out of respect I agreed to let her cover up as long as I could capture her smile in the photo.  There’s a smile in there somewhere, believe me.

Call or Text ASAP if you’ve lost something important in a public area… Stan  949-500-3-2136 .. I Will Try Anywhere.
