Charlotte called me yesterday asking if I could find her ring. She was on the beach playing a tossing game. When she tossed she lost her ring. I had plans today but told her I could be there this morning, bright & early. She agreed.

I got to the beach at 7:30 am. It was empty & I got an excellent free parking spot! She told me she was to the right of the trash cans, so I texted her saying I was there and started to search before she got there. Within 5 minutes I had an awesome shallow tone on the detector. I scooped up the sand and had a big silver ring in my hands. 

I was very surprised that I found it before she arrived. As I was taking pictures of the ring, Charlotte arrived. I asked her what her ring looked like, as I was going to surprise her when she described it to me. She said it was a yellow gold ring with a pearl in the center. Oh, that is not the ring I found, bonus!

She showed me the area she was in when she lost her ring. The ring was her grandmother’s ring, which has a lot of sentimental value attached to it. She said she spent several hours sifting through the sand with family looking for it. She is in the area for a family reunion. She explained to me that just last week she lost another ring on a beach in Virginia, that a family friend found with a metal detector. She didn’t learn a lesson with that loss. 

I started to grid the area she sent me to. Within 5 minutes I had that special gold tone on my detector, scooped and there was her ring. She was so happy & relieved. I asked her if she learned any lessons. She said YES, I’m never wearing rings to the beach again. She had to go back & pack as they are returning home today, to Virginia. 

I stuck around to search a little more and found another silver ring. Not bad, it was a beautiful morning on the beach!!

*** Jeremy called me asking for help to find his wedding ring. He reminded me that I had helped him find this same ring a couple years ago. 

This time he had been at Churches Surfing Beach near San Onofre State Beach. These beaches are located in San Clemente, CA. which is about a half hour drive for me. 

He was sure that he had put the ring in the pocket of his shorts before going out to surf. He believe that the ring may have fallen out of the pocket into the sand, even though he didn’t discover it missing till he returned home. I asked Jeremy if he couple meet me at the location.

It took about an hour to get into San Onofre State Beach parking then walk maybe a third of a mile to the isolated surfing beach. Jeremy had riden his electric bike to meet me. Many times people can meet me but it does help for a successful recovery.

I began a grid search about 10’ outside the 30’x 30’ Jeremy laid out for me. Half way through the second grid line my detector gave me a solid signal which turned out to be his tungsten wedding ring. He was over joyed. I could tell that this ring meant a lot to him. 

This search was fun for me because it started with a simple phone call, it was over 20 miles away, we met on a remote part of the beach and Jeremy had his ring back where it belongs, we both went on to enjoy the ready of our day..

Engagement ring found in Rockford, Michigan.

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)

Gregg Larabel got a call for a lost ring and since he was unavailable he gave it to me.  Chelsie had been working in her parents’ yard on Mother’s Day when she lost the ring, which she described as a silver metal heirloom handed down thru fiance Dylan’s family.  She and Dylan met me at the house today to show me what she had been doing and where on the property.  Chelsie was pretty sure about the specific area, but checking that area didn’t get me any silver signals from my metal detector.  We checked other parts of the lawn and finally came back to the original spot so I could check ALL the signals there.  When I got a tin foil signal, which is close to that of gold, I called Dylan over.  He bent down and parted the grass and there was her ring.  Turns out the ring is white gold instead of silver.  Chelsie shed a tear or two and our day just got a little brighter.  These moments never get old.

Class ring found!

  • from Eau Claire (Wisconsin, United States)

While searching an old volleyball site, I recovered a large gold college class ring.  From the date and a partial name engraved on the inside, I was able, with the help of the university, to identify and locate the owner.  On the telephone, the owner’s wife recalled her husband losing the ring playing volleyball 24 years earlier!  Needless to say, he was as surprised as he was happy to get the ring back.

***  I received a call from Natalie in Long Beach, CA. She had lost her wedding ring in the backyard while pulling weeds. She had put the gold w/ diamonds ring in her back pocket. When she returned to the house the ring was not in her pocket. 

I was able to meet her a few hours later. Natalie showed me the small backyard explaining that she had also had her cellphone in the same pocket as her wedding ring. Evidently the ring came out of her pocket when the she used the cellphone. This is not the first time I’ve heard this same story. It happens quite often because these cellphones have a lip that can drag loose items out of a pocket.

I started by checking the pile of weeds that had been pulled. Then I began the grid search of the 40’x 40’ lawn. It is an older piece of property with a lot of pieces of metal trash in the lawn. I usually search in all metal mode setting with my metal detector. This being a small yard I discriminated out the ferrous metals. 

Halfway through the yard I had two similar signals very close to each other. One was a pull tab and the other was Natalie’s beautiful gold diamond wedding ring. It was another successful ring recovery. Natalie was very happy and relieved that she didn’t have to lose sleep worrying about if she could find her ring.

Chris Turner- Ring Recovery Specialist…Lost your ring?… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP  Anytime   778-838-3463

Yesterday late afternoon, I received a call from a young lady by the name of Virginia, she told me that she had lost her diamond ring that was a gift handed down from her great great grandmother. She went on to tell me that she rode her bike to the park to enjoy her lunch break, that’s where she lost her ring. Virginia told me she would be off work at 5:30 pm and would meet me at the park at 5:45 pm, I got there early to ensure I could find parking as it’s right beside a popular beach.  I met Virginia at 5:45 pm and she went on to tell me the story of how she lost her ring, she had taken it off to apply suntan lotion to her self and place it on the towel that she was sitting on. You can imagine what happens next, it’s a very common thing for people to forget, stand up, and lift up the towel. She did not realize she had lost her ring until she got back to work a few hours later. She went back to search the area but cannot find it in the long grass and daisies not to mentioned that it’s very hard to locate the exact spot where she had the lunch.

She had taken some photos during lunch and showed it to me, we could tell there was daisies in front of her towel so I started my search and within 30 minutes I located her beautiful diamond ring that was buried beneath the grass. When people are not exactly sure where they may have lost the ring but having good idea it just takes time to slowly grid search and find it, because we know it is there somewhere.

High School Class Ring Lost in Chattanooga TN for 16 Years…Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

High School Ring Lost for 16 Years, Found!

I had a guy to contact me several months ago about a high school class ring he had lost in 2005.  He had since moved out of state up to Pennsylvania.  This weekend being Mother’s day he was in town visiting family and had obtained permission from the current homeowners to do a search in the yard.  So this has been several months in the making.  He thought it was white gold, but wasn’t certain.  I wasn’t sure what kind of signal I would get on my CTX, and I knew it would be several inches deep, so I was doomed to dig just about everything.  I started up towards the house and worked my way down to the street, drawing my grid lines.  I had been there about three hours and had dug a bag full of trash and modern coins.  It’s slow going when you have to dig nearly everything.  We had only about five feet of yard left before we got to the street when I got a signal that at first looked like trash.  The CTX didn’t give me a VDI number, (I think there was trash very nearby), but I did have a consistent tone and a small tight target identification picture on the screen.  Since it was consistent I dug it and out popped a ring that had been in the ground for 16 years.  It was 3-4 inches deep, a little deeper than I thought it might be.  Another happy ring owner!

Lost Earring Recovered in Sunny Isles Beach, Florida

  • from Stinson Beach (California, United States)

Successful earring recovery on the beach! Tatiana found my listing and called on the evening of May 5, 2021 for a little help.

It’s special to her and fortunately she and her husband made great notes about where they were and what happened when it was lost. They were able to point me in the right direction in the dry sand near their sitting area.

I was so happy to see it in my scoop and now back where it belongs for more adventures. Cheers to a lovely couple!🥂

Lost Diamond Ring Recovered on Haulover Beach, Miami, Florida

  • from Stinson Beach (California, United States)

A beachgoer in Miami Florida contacted me early morning on May 12, 2021 to recover a diamond ring lost the night before. She was a wreck searching for the ring and couldn’t sleep. Fortunately, she kept track of her position on the beach and we met before sunrise on Haulover Beach in Miami, Florida, USA.

It was a quick search in the dry sand near the tide line and within about 15 minutes, the ring was found and returned to the owner just as the sun broke through the clouds at the horizon.

Beautiful morning and a great way to start the day for this young lady who thought fast, did a web search and found theringfinders.com!
