Lost Wedding Ring Found With a Metal Detector in Portland, TN

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

 

Aaron found my contact information on TheRingFinders directory after his wife lost her wedding ring in their Portland, TN back yard about a week ago. She actually lost both her engagement and wedding rings at the same time as she was playing with their dogs, but they quickly found the larger engagement ring in the grass. The wedding ring disappeared in the thick grass, and played hard to get even when Aaron used a metal detector to look for the ring himself. This was the second search of the day for me, and was hopefully going to be successful like the first search.

After Aaron showed me where his wife was standing when she lost her rings and where they found the engagement ring, he said he’d leave me to do my thing and he went back in the house. Ten minutes into the search I got the signal I was hoping for. The ring was completely concealed in the thick grass, about twelve feet away from where the engagement ring had been found. Both Aaron and his wife were very happy to have the wedding ring back on her finger with the matching engagement ring. Aaron’s wife had all but given up hope that her ring would be found. It was a great feeling to recover the ring for her.

Davis contacted me on 06-23-2026 after he lost his gold wedding band in his back yard. He had placed his ring in the side pocket of an ice chest, and later when he was dumping the ice chest in his back yard, the ring fell from the ice chest pocket. He used a rake to comb through the grass but could not find the ring. We agreed that I would search for the ring on 06-27-2026. Davis asked if he could watch me search and I said he was more than welcome to watch. I warned him that there will be other metal objects in his yard that I will be checking and not to get too excited when he sees me bend down to check a target. After showing me the area where he dumped the ice chest, I powered up the Deus 2 metal detector, started a timer and swung the coil next to the concrete patio and got a strong signal. I was happily surprised that this very first target was in fact Davis’ ring. TEN SECONDS is my new record for a ring recovery, beating my old record of 38 seconds. Sometimes luck is better than skill. Either way Davis was elated. He assured me that he checked the area where I found his ring, and was baffled that he didn’t see it. I spent a few minutes allowing Davis’s young daughter swing the detector over the ring, then use the pinpointer to locate her dad’s ring a second time. It put a smile on her face, so that was an added bonus.

Alan contacted me about a gold ring his father had lost a couple years ago while doing some yard work. He thought it would make a great father’s day gift to have it found and returned. I headed out to the beautiful historic property. There I was greeted by two of the nicest people I have met, Alan’s parents. Despite mobility issues, his dad was able to describe what he was doing when the ring was lost, and really helped narrow the search area. Luck was on our side. The ring had landed in an area where it avoided the lawn mower while it sank a few inches into the soil. I carefully extracted it, cleaned off the dirt. shined it up a little with a cloth, then took it over to where Alan’s dad was sitting. He looked up and I said “Happy Father’s Day” as I placed the ring in his hand. He was very happy to have it back, and I was very grateful to be able to do it for him.

Samuel contacted me about a lost family heirloom ring. He took a fall while skating on a paved path near his home. He was okay, but unfortunately the ring flew off into the woods along the path.  They searched for many hours with no luck. I was able to get there the next day. After a detailed description of the fall and trajectory, we were able to narrow the search area, and found it within a few minutes.  I was really glad to recover this special ring for a hard working young man.

Ryan contacted me about a ring he lost while working at a home in Keswick. Luckily the home owner knew of The Ring Finders and referred him to me.  I was able to head right out and met him there.  He had a good idea of the area on the thick lawn where it was last, as he and his coworker had spent time searching on hands and knees, and even raking with no luck.  I started searching with my metal detector, and within a few minutes I was able to find it.  It was nice to get the ring back on Ryan’s finger.

Lost gold bridal set in Alsip, IL found with metal detector!

  • from Lockport (Illinois, United States)

I received a call on June 25, 2026, from Christina and Jimmy in Alsip, Illinois. They needed help finding Christina’s white gold bridal set — her engagement ring and matching wedding band — which had been lost in their backyard. While socializing on a beautiful summer day, the rings had somehow slipped off her finger. Christina and Jimmy had spent the last couple of days searching on their own. They raked the grass and even walked barefoot, hoping to feel the rings beneath their feet. After having no luck, they discovered my information on The Ring Finders directory and gave me a call.

I made the  35-minute drive from Lockport to Alsip and met Jimmy at his residence. He showed me the general area in the backyard where he thought the rings had been lost, though he wasn’t entirely sure of the exact spot. As he watched anxiously, I marked out the most promising section with fluorescent orange flags and began a grid search with my metal detector. Jimmy mentioned the set was white gold, which helped me dial in the right target range and tone.

About 15 minutes later, I got a strong, promising signal. I knelt down and carefully pulled out Christina’s stunning white gold bridal set, which had been hidden just beneath a layer of grass. I walked over to Jimmy, held it up, and asked with a smile, “Does your ring look anything like this?” His eyes widened and a huge grin spread across his face. He shook my hand enthusiastically and thanked me.

There’s no better feeling than reuniting people with their lost treasures!

Lost Gold Coin & Gold Chain, Wreck Beach

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys call ASAP 24/7 Service- Chris 778-838-3463

 

I received a call to help find a lost gold coin on a gold chain at Wreck Beach in Vancouver. I was excited at the thought of being able to help find such an important item. After hearing the story about where this young man had lost the coin & gold chain my excitement dwindled.

He told me he went for a very long swim straight out from where he was sitting on the beach. The swim he estimated was approximately 1 km, over a half a mile. This meant my chances were very, very low for recovery. I told him what I could do is search at low tide to make sure he didn’t lose it closer to shore, maybe we could get lucky but in my mind this was just a closure search to make sure it wasn’t where anyone else could find it.

We both knew this was a long shot, I could only search 5% of the area as 95% would have been far from shore in the deep ocean. But I do believe in miracles and one happened that day after 2 1/2 hours of laying down a good grid-search on low tide in the wet sand I found his beautiful gold coin and gold chain.

I’ve been doing this a very long time and I’ve recovered over 550 items and I have to say I love these types of surprises where you don’t expect it and it shows up.

Needless to say, we were both high-fiving and extremely excited about the recovery!

I love my job!!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys- Call ASAP 24/7  Service- Chris- 778-838-3463. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

I received a text message asking if I was the guy who finds lost rings so I called and introduced myself and found out that the young man lost his platinum wedding band at a volleyball court right beside his office building.

By the sounds of it this should be a fast find so I drove out and met him and he showed me the area and it was the first target and maybe 40 second search. He said he was very relieved, he also told me his wife is out of town and he was too embarrassed to even tell her that he had lost it.

I love my job!
