Lost Palladium Wedding Band at Kualoa Regional Park…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)


This ring find began when I got a text last night that read, “my husband lost his wedding ring at china man’s hat yesterday…any chance you could search for it?” I called and Jason who serves in the Air Force told me he was playing with his two sons in the shallow water behind the breakwater at Kualoa Regional Park and his Palladium Wedding Band went missing. We agreed to meet the next morning at the Park so he could show me the area. I’ve never been to the back of the park so him being there helped quite a bit. After about a 20 minute grid search with no luck other than coins and pull tabs, Jason expanded out the grid search South & West. I started again and more coins and trash. Just as I was about to complete the last leg of the new grid I got a screaming #9 on the Nox and in one scoop there was Jason’s shining ring in the scoop. Jason was right at the end of the grid so all I had to do was look up and say, “Got it”. A sigh of relief came over Jason’s face as he knew we were nearly done with the grid and it wasn’t looking good until that moment. We shook hands and laughed a bit in relief. Nice way to celebrate Memorial Day! Aloha to Jason and his family!

Found Ring at Ocean View Beach VA

  • from Knoxville (Tennessee, United States)

I was metal detecting at Ocean View Beach while on vacation. I was approached by a couple of local ladies who informed me one of them lost a ring about two weeks ago, I told them I would give it a shot. They said it could be anywhere in this general area, not a small area by any means. After no luck from the dry sand I moved to the water because low tide was going to start coming back up, with a little luck and lots of determination I found it in about 3 feet of water and was able to return it to Brittany.

Wedding ring recovered in Grand Rapids, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
In the vicinity of Lookout Park in Grand Rapids there are several long sets of steep stairs to get you up the bluff. What a place to lose a ring! Gregg, my fellow Ringfinder, received a call from Kate saying she just lost her wedding ring coming down these steps. Since Gregg is out of town he turned it over to me to find. I met Kate at the top of the stairs and she said that she and her husband were working out by running up and down these stairs. She saw the ring come off her finger and bounce a couple of times on the concrete steps before going into the brush on the left side of the steps. They looked for the ring for a long time and finally called for help. Overhead power lines were creating a lot of interference, and the area was full of trash, further complicating the search for the ring. Finally I used my pinpointer to search the area closest to the concrete edge of the steps, and found it under about 2 inches of soft dirt that had been stirred up by tramping thru that area. Married for only six months and now she has her ring back!!

Ring Lost In Topsail Beach Surf Found Days Later By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

 

After a contacting another person to find a wedding band lost along Topsail Beach, NC failed, Rosanna contacted www.TheRingFinders.com member Steven Ray.  This ring was lost in the surf 4 days prior.

From Tears To Cheers!

Rosanna’s story:

Saturday, May 21 was our first beach trip of the season, little did I know it would end in tears.
I was close to the shoreline with my daughter, my husband came up to us to let me know he was going to swim further out into the ocean.  He stopped himself and said, “oh my ring”.
This November will be 10 years that we’ve been married and he’s lost quite a bit of weight since the day I placed his ring on his finger, so it was already a bit loose on him.
I gave him that look that wives give their husband’s (lol) and asked him to let me hang onto it so he wouldn’t lose it.
I was facing the ocean and my daughter was beside me with her back to the ocean. I had my right arm across my body holding her left hand to help her jump over the waves.  I let go of her hand so that I could hold it with my left hand, the same hand that I had placed my husband’s ring on.  Before I knew it a bigger wave knocked my daughter over, she reached to grab my hand but her little fingers just glided over my hand and she wasn’t able to catch her grip, she had loosened my husband’s ring on my finger and it slipped off.  I immediately gasped and let out a “no”!  I fell to my knees and started to desperately search for his ring, but to no avail.  My heart just sank, I couldn’t believe I had just asked him to let me hang onto it so he wouldn’t lose it and yet, I was the one who had lost it.
After about 15 minutes of crying, searching, getting knocked around from wave after wave, after wave, I walked back up to my beach chair and sat their defeated.  I remember looking out into the ocean and thinking to myself, there has to be someone out there that can find it.  I pulled my phone out and searched on Google, hiring someone who has a metal detector.  Then my next search, hire someone to find a ring at North Topsail.  (Rosanna contacted someone with a Facebook Group page that she mentioned but I choose to omit)  I called him right away, he told me he was out of town but would start his search as soon as he returned.  I received a call from him 3 days later to let me know that he would be heading out the following day to try and look for my husband’s ring.  The next morning he sent me a text stating that he had spent about an hour doing a grid search but had no luck finding the ring.  I remember how disheartening reading that text felt.  I asked if he would be willing to expand his grid and also offered a reward if found.  He let me know that he was confident in his search and was not able to find it, I paid him for his services.  I called my husband on my lunch break, crying, telling him that Chris couldn’t find it and apologizing to him again for having lost it.  I’ll never forget the sincerity in his voice asking me not to cry and telling me that it was ok.
After that call, and composing myself, I heavily debated about posting something online in the hopes that an honest person had found it and would return it, but, I started to think about how people get “second opinions” all the time!  So, back to searching I went, but this time I tried Facebook and that’s when I found your company Steve, Crystal Coast Ring Finders.  A big part of me had already accepted that my husband’s ring was gone forever but I just had to give it one more try.
The level of professionalism that you provided Steve, along with Justin, was unmatched by the first company I contacted, I only wish I had found your company first.  Before I knew it, I was at the beach with Justin and he went straight to work, I could tell he was a man on a mission!  As we left Justin to his search, my family and I headed back home to Jacksonville to get my kiddos ready for bed.  I received a call from Justin even before we made it back to our home, he sent me a picture and I couldn’t believe it, he had found my husband’s wedding ring!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!  Thank you for your commitment, dedication, professionalism, compassion, and understanding!  I just knew there had to be someone out there that could find it, I’m beyond happy that I was able to find the right company to get the job done!!!!
Sincerely,
Rosanna

I got a call from Amy who had lost 3 rings in the sand at the beach. This was an important loss, and We made arrangements to get me there as soon as I could make it in order to perform a search for her.

By the time I arrived, Amy had had to leave, but she had called her husband Anthony to be there. I walked out to meet him, and he explained that he had searched and found 2 of the rings, but was unable to find the 3rd. I set up to search, and within seconds, I had the 3rd ring in my scoop. It was only a few feet from where Anthony had been searching, and Amy now had all of her rings back. it was a very fruitful day for a search.

Lost – Lady’s Gold/Silver heirloom ring – Outer Banks – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

It was Friday afternoon around 6pm when I got a call from Rick.  He told he that his wife, Dawn, had lost her ring a few hours ago on the beach and they were very certain that they knew it’s approximate location.  As usual I ask if it was in the water, and he replied that it was in dry sand.

I arrive at the Location about twenty minutes later.  As I met Rick and Dawn for the first time and he said, “I’ve been thinking since we spoke and we lost it a few hours ago, I’m really not sure the tide hasn’t risen above it.”

We went down to the beach and Dawn led the way to where she thought she had lost it.  I fired up the XP Deus II and swept as I followed them.  After I had only gotten a few steps I got a great hit in the wet sand (81!)  I scooped it up, sensing that it was shallow, verified that I had it and continued with Rick and Dawn without missing a beat.

We went on about 30 yards and Dawn turned toward the dune and said, “It’s somewhere in this dry sand.  I asked her if she had a picture?  She got her phone out and started going through her images.  While she did that I reached in my scoop and behold…a ring.  Just then, she showed me her image of the ring.

I held up the ring from scoop and said, “That sure looks a lot like this one!”

Dawn and Rick were very happy to have their ring back!

*** Brittany had lost her Diamond Engagement Ring in the sand while laying out on at Hermosa Beach, CA.. She called asking for help. I was able to meet her and her fiancé on the beach a short time after we talked. They had been searching the sand for hours with no success. Actually they had more than a dozen people helping them. 

I met her on the beach and set up my metal detector. As I was beginning my grid search we visually spotted the ring on the surface of the soft fluffy sand. We must have kicked it up. Also the sun was just right to reflect the brilliance of the diamond.

All was well and Brittany was very surprised and happy that she stayed and didn’t give up before the miracle happened..

Well it’s been a while since I’ve had a successful recovery, not that I haven’t tried and this one wasn’t an easy one to say the least. I got a call from a young lady who lost her wedding band and was asking to see if I could help her, we set a time and a place to meet at Spanish banks in Vancouver BC. The young lady show me the area where she believe the ring was lost and at the same time told me there was two other places it could’ve been dropped. She told me she put it in her pants pocket and while visiting a friend she took her pants off as she had shorts underneath. So this was definitely a place where her ring could’ve fallen out of her pocket.

She also told me there was a possibility it could’ve fallen out when she got out of the car, you have to take all this info into consideration but the most important thing to do was give her closure for the beach area. I spent close to 2 1/2 hours searching with no luck. I do ask many questions to make sure I’m not missing what I’m looking for, I also expand the search area. Part of me felt like she was going to find it at her friends place, when I got the text message that her and her friend could not find it I knew I had to go back to the beach and go into areas where she did not believe it could be, as we all know Murphy’s Law plays a big part in recovering peoples lost items.

I arrived the next day and was determined to search where she did not believe the ring could be the only problem was there was a lot of black sand which was really causing havoc on my machine due to the mineralization. However after 15 minutes I was able to locate her beautiful wedding band. It pays to go back sometimes just to double check and make sure you did everything you could, I’m good at thinking out of the box but even I can miss things as far as Information goes, it’s good to go where you least expect it sometimes.

Lost Wedding Band Recovered, West Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

I had a great start to the day today.  In a morning call, Sarah told me how her husband had lost his wedding band at the beach the previous evening and asked if I might be able to search for it.  I met her and her girl friend at the beach a half hour later, and she showed me the location of the loss from a GPS fix that she had taken.  I queried her about how the ring was lost (it fell off as her husband was reaching for their dog as it ran by) and it seemed that the ring could not have traveled far.  The loss was at low tide and we were again at low tide on the wet beach, so it seemed like it would be a straightforward matter to make the recovery.  After about 15 minutes of spiraling and gridding on wet sand and gravel with no result except a rusty bottle cap and a chunk of foil, we conferred again and Sarah suggested that the loss might have been higher up the slope in loose sand.  It took only a couple minutes before that magic gold tone was ringing in my ears — I took a scoop of sand, gave it a shake, and walked the scoop over to Sarah with the gold circlet shining at the bottom.  The look on her face was priceless as she and her friend hugged and shed a few tears of joy.  I learned that the ring had been her husband’s father’s ring, which made the recovery extra special.  Thanks Sarah, for giving me the opportunity to help you out and save a family heirloom!

 

Lost ring in Anderson County Park

  • from Knoxville (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by Josh and Stephanie. They were visiting friends from out of town and went swimming at a local swimming hole at Anderson County Park. At some point Stephanie noticed her engagement ring was missing. I spent several hours snorkeling, looking for her ring with no luck. Josh and Stephanie had left town to go back home heart broken. I refused to give up, I came back two days later with scuba gear and found it in 15ft of water in the deepest part of the swim area. I cleaned the clay off her ring and mailed it to their home in Alabama.
