Sentimental Ear Ring Lost At Atlantic Beach Found Two Days Later

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Atlantic Beach, NC

I was practicing my detector skills and settings at “The Circle”.  As I pulled another bottlecap from it’s sandy depths (glass bottles are prohibited here), a couple asked if I had found an ear ring.  Kate informed me she had lost the ear ring in the same general area 2 days prior.  My recovery mode went into action as I started to grid the area.  To her surprise and after a few more pieces of junk metal, I received a solid 1 signal on my Minelab Equinox 800.  It took 1 scoop to unbury her missing ear ring.

Kate was thrilled I found it and explained although it didn’t have monetary value, her Aunt had made the ear rings for her and the sentimental value connection made her very happy to have the set back in her possession.

Unbelievable Gold Earring Recovery near a Firepit at Huntington State Beach, CA.

If you lost your ring in the sand call  “Stan the Metal Detector Man” available now … Call or Text  .. 949-500-2136

*** Jeremy and his wife had been at Huntington State Beach sitting around the firepits the night before calling me. His wife had lost a gold earring in the sand near the firepit. It was a very special hierloom passed down to her from her grandmother. I was at the general location before Jeremy showed up and I could see a guy detecting the firepits.

Jeremy arrived about 10 minutes later. We walked out to the firepit where the loss occurred. I could see that the other detectorist had already worked this firepit area. Jeremy marked a 15’x 15’ zone that he believed the gold earring should be. Beginning to swing my 11” coil set up on my Equinox metal detector,  I knew there was a lot of trash metal in this location. It would be better to get my other detector with the 6” coil. 

I asked Jeremy to go ask the other detectorist if he had found the earring and he had not found the earring. I went back to my car to get the better detector for this trashy area. I also brought a small hand sand sifter to use up close to the cement firepit that is reinforced with iron rebar. If the earring was close to the firepit, the rebar might mask the possibility of getting a signal from my detector.

You won’t believe what happened after I got back to continue the search. Jeremy had a rake that a camper had lent him. I told him the rake was a waste of time for a small earring. It would be more helpful if he could use the small hand sifter to pull the sand away from the rebar cement firepit. 

Then I gave him a demonstration of how to use it. I took two short scoops with the scoop and the miracle happened. “BOOM “ there in the scoop was the gold earring. Exactly on the opposite side of the firepit where he believed the loss had happened. 

Unbelievable!! This was completely unexpected and I’m starting to get used to these types of recoveries. The best thing about it was Jeremy could return to the hotel to surprise his wife.

Lost Wedding Band – Pensacola Beach – Found!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

We live in a beautiful place!  I had a long day at work and was just settling in at home when I got a call from Chris. He had been out on Pensacola Beach enjoying the Gulf while vacationing down from Ohio. Chris was packing up everything from his day with the family and as he grabbed a chair he watched his gold band go flying in the sand. He quickly learned that even after searching with several pairs of hands for a half hour, those rings are impossible to find without a really good saltwater metal detector. Luckily someone at the resort gave him my number and he called. Very rarely do I get to take my wife with me and since this was a pretty straightforward return she decided to video the entire thing.  Check out the link below. It’s my attempt at video editing 😁 and look at the huge smile on Chris’ face when he gets his wedding band in his hand. Thanks for calling Chris and congratulations.

Mobile Metal Detecting Service .. Call Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

… Karin and Cory were enjoying their vacation in Newport Beach, CA., their vacation was disrupted, when Karin lost her three ring wedding set. The three rings were soldiered together so all were thought to be lost forever. She didn’t realize the rings were missing until they returned to their hotel. Cory got into action by checking the car and Karin checked all the belongings they had taken to the beach. The only place the ring could be was at the beach. Cory knew it would be impossible to search the dry sand without some sort of sifter or maybe a metal detector.

Before attempting a search they went online to inquire about metal detectors. They happened onto TheRingFinder website, where they got my phone number. Cory talked to me and we met at the main Newport Beach near the pier in the dark. This is the most popular daytime beach area and very well maintained. In the summer season the beach king sand sifter is used here almost everyday. Also a very heavily detected beach in the summertime, day and night.

It’s nice to hear someone say they felt the ring come off and they are standing in the location, but this was not the case.  When I get those type calls I know the odds are good that we can recover the ring. Because they had returned to the hotel before knowing the ring was missing, I could assure them that I could eliminate the area , if they could get me close. If the ring was there,  my equipment can locate it. We met at the location as the tide was beginning to cover the dry sand. I tried to keep my grid lines in front of the incoming tide. After about a half hour I got a solid signal and a quick dig with my Xtreme sand scoop. I had the whole wedding ring set in the bottom of my scoop. White Gold Engagement Ring, Wedding Ring and anniversary rings all very sentimental impossible to replace originals. As we were running out of places to search we were all losing hope. Then the magic signal “Boom” successful recovery and tears of joy for Karin. Cory had that special, “I don’t believe it look”  It never gets old doing this service for people, I love it!1

Heirloom Pendant Found and returned In Kelowna

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Troy was devastated when he lost his pendant playing volleyball with a group of people. They all searched for it in the sand, with no success. He called me for assistance and I met him at 7am the next morning at the volleyball courts. I always go early to check out the location and got there at 6am. I searched around and within 30 minutes I had the St Christopher pendant in my pocket. When Troy showed up before his work at 7am, I asked him about the pendant and where he was during the game, he said it may be in the volleyball court, or where they stopped for drinks. He also told me that the pendant was given to him over 20 years ago by his now deceased foster parents and it meant a lot to him. I told him that I had got there early and had searched the whole volleyball court, then I reached in my pocket and asked him if that was the pendant. He jumped up and down and was so grateful, he said that I had made his day.

Lost cell phone in Gobles, MI recovered

  • from Manistee (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from Dimitriy P. yesterday. He was cutting grass between Blueberry bushes while on his tractor. His cell phone was in his pocket and with the bumpy ride it fell out and went under a clump of cut grass. After walking between the rows of bushes where he had been driving the tractor and searching for the cell with no luck he Googled “lost cell phone” and found the Ringfinders. I have Kalamazoo as one of my cities I serve and that was close by. After reading my resume and making a few reference calls I was asked to find his cell phone.

I called my detector friend, Tom Cleary, to help me search the large area. We started at the front of the field and worked our through the Blueberry bushes. After a search on the front of the farm we headed towards the back and that is when Tom called out to me that he found the phone under a clump of grass with his Equinox 800 detector.

I called Dimitriy as he was driving the 2 1/2 hour trip from West of Chicago. We sat in the shade and waited for about 50 minutes for him while also charging up his phone. Upon arrival Dimitriy explained that his friend just bought the Blueberry farm and it had grown up from neglect for a couple years so they had to cut the grass between the rows of bushes. He said the phone wasn’t that expensive except for all the information that was on it. After a few pictures taken he invited us to come down when the Blueberries were ripe and help ourselves. Thank you Tom for the help.

Ring Saved from Lake Michigan.

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Ring was lost near New Era.  On Sunday Clayton was playing catch with a football in just about one foot of water when he felt his wedding ring slide off his finger.  Gregg Larabel and I headed out right away on Monday afternoon because the wave action of Lake Michigan has a way of burying rings forever.  Although Clayton had to work and couldn’t be there, Gregg and I met about 15 family members and friends at the waters edge of the rental cottage, and Clayton’s dad, Mike, showed us where to start:  right where Clayton had stuck a stick in the water where he thought he lost his ring.  After about 10 minutes of searching I got a good hard signal of 55 on the At Pro detector about 6 feet from Clayton’s stick in the water.  Then the digging started.  After lots of scooping with no results I called Gregg over, and he scooped some more, but we didn’t have the ring.  I rechecked the huge hole we had dug to see if the 55 signal was still there and it was.  Just one more big deep scoop into the hole and ring was in my scoop!  The whole crowd on the beach erupted in a cheer!  After only about 24 hours the ring was already buried over 12 inches, we got it just in time.  Clayton’s parents, Mike and Jennifer, stood in for the picture in the absence of Clayton but we got a happy picture of Clayton and his wife after receiving his ring back.  Good memories saved for the 2021 vacation on Lake Michigan.

LOST RING FOUND IN APEX, NC…….. FOUND

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

Got a text message from Bonnie on Saturday night June 5th at 20:50, that her husband Skip had lost his wedding ring in the water while wrestling around with his son. He was very upset and heartbroken that he had lost it. I reassured her that I would do my very best to find it for him and make him happy again. The next morning, first thing, I drive to their location and I get the lowdown. I changed my settings to only find silver or large sliver I then jumped into the water. It was less than 10 mins later I get a solid on the top silver target that I just knew it had to be the lost ring. After about five attempts to scoop it out, I finally saw the big shiny ring at the top of the clay clump on my sand scooper as it fell into the basket. I yelled out, ” I GOT IT!!!” I get up to the bank and wash it off, shoot a photo and hand it back to Bonnie’s husband and he gave me a great big ole hug. Another happy person, reunited with their precious lost item.
