**Kara took her three kids to Huntington City beach for the day. After returning to her car, she dropped her purse on the curb strip grass. several items fell out of her purse, including he gold diamond wedding ring set. She was only able to find the engagement ring.

After returning home, she contacted me and we set up a time to meet the next morning. We were sure it was safely hiding in the grass and not in the street or side walk.

The next morning we met at the location of the loss. It was a quick recovery because Kara had the address of the home directly in front of where the purse spill happened. The small eternity style was not visible in the long blades of grass as the ring worked its way deep. This happens often when people start raking their finger through grass or sand. The metal detector is the right tool for this type of recovery.

Wedding Ring Found In Front Yard, Perry, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Christopher and Jenna just moved into their new house in the country and Jenna was doing some gardening around the pine trees bordering the driveway. She put her ring in her pocket and then started to pull some weeds from around the pine trees. Then she went for a ride on the go-kart around the yard with the kids. After all of this activity her ring was missing from her pocket. Hoping she did not lose it on the go-kart, I started searching around the pine trees. Getting close to the last two trees I spot something shiny in the grass and swing the coil across it getting the sweet sound of gold to confirm it is the ring. I go to the house and get Christopher to come out and pick up the prize. 10 years of marriage and we just made their day a little brighter.

Gold Necklace With 2 Gold Pendants, Lost In The Ogunquit Beach, Maine Sand, Found With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)
Contact:

As Cheryl and I were out running errands, this morning, I received the following text

“Hi we are in Ogunquit Beach my son’s girlfriend lost a necklace yesterday evening do you come this far? Tide came in overnight but didn’t hit where we were sitting I looked this morning again”
I replied

“Hi, So sorry to hear this. I do go to Ogunquit, Maine: Beautiful Place by the Sea.
So was the necklace lost in the dry sand, along the high tide mark?
A concern would be that necklaces don’t immediately sink into the sand, like a ring. They have too much surface area to sink, unless stepped on. If it were laying on the surface, anyone could have seen it.
Another concern would be other metal detectorists at the beach. The area is heavily detected.
Which area of the beach? Near the Norseman Resort?”

Mary Ellen replied,
“It was down the beach near the 1st bridge marker 3
Dry sand was on her towel and she didn’t realize it and picked up her towel after getting out of water. Yes, right near the edge of the the high tide mark and yes we were concerned someone just picked it up. We did go down last evening right after she realized it was missing and looked around. I was looking for someone with a detector this morning. I do see them down there a lot but no luck. It had a pennant and gold chain ”

Mary Ellen and I then made plans to meet me at Ogunquit, Maine. I would park at her sister’s condo and her sister, Julie would walk me down to the area where the necklace and pendants were lost. Cheryl and I arrived and were met by Julie, Julie walked us down over the bridge, past the Norseman Resort, Tidal Suites-On Ogunquit Beach, Maine, lifeguard stand and volleyball court area. Julie saw Mary Ellen’s husband standing at the spot, where the necklace and pendants were lost. Mary Ellen, her son Josh and Josh’s girlfriend, Simi, were not there. So, Without hesitation, I was shown the area the family had been at the previous day. No more than a 10’ X 10’ area. I turned the detector on and demonstrated how the detector works, to Julie and Mary Ellen’s husband. I had brought a gold necklace and pendant, dropped it onto the sand, to demonstrate that it wouldn’t completely disappear. It didn’t disappear and you could still see approximately 1/2 of the necklace. I then ran my coil, over the necklace so that they could see and hear, what I was looking for. Once the calibration and demonstration were over, I told Julie that I would start a grid search from the high tide water line, towards the dunes for about 10’, turn around and grid search, on the way back. I had taken 2 steps forward and received my first signal. It wasn’t a great sounding target, very scratchy sounding and a 21 on the VDI screen. I put my hand into the sand and found nothing. Hand in the sand again and again nothing. I was thinking it was a small piece of aluminum or foil. Since it was a non ferrous target, I then took my pinpointer out and located the target. As I wiped the sand away, I caught a glimpse of something Gold. I then saw a very thin necklace attached to a gold pendant. I literally just found the lost necklace, in 15 seconds of actual search time. I couldn’t believe it and picked the necklace up and both Julie and her brother in law were in disbelief, as he triumphantly raised his hands. He then called Mary Ellen, to tell him the good news. Mary Ellen, Josh and Simi were on their way down the beach and Josh started running to us, when he heard the news of the necklace and pendants being found. When Josh saw the necklace and pendant he was smiling ear to ear, as was Simi and Mary Ellen, when they arrived, a few moments later. The mood was jovial and I was being thanked, over and over. I asked Simi if there were any sentimental ties to the necklace and pendants being found she told me that the Necklace and Cross Pendant, were a Christmas gift, from her parents. The rectangular and heart pendant was a gift, from Josh, at their 18 month anniversary. I would say they were very sentimental. I was just so happy for Simi and Josh, as they were just beaming with happiness, the the necklace was once again on Simi’s neck.
A little while later I received a text from Mary Ellen. She texted

“Thank you!! I am so glad I texted you this morning
Also You’re welcome!
Broke my heart when Simi was crying last night so glad it was found .”

I am also very happy, to have turned Simi’s tears, into a bright smiling face. No better feeling than reuniting others, with a lost item they thought was lost forever. 😀❤️🙏

Lost White Gold Cartier Love Ring at Four Seasons Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This ring find began when I got a voicemail last night from Ronnie who was on vacation from Vallejo, California and staying at the Four Seasons Resort at Ko Olina.  While enjoying the cool water of the lagoon at some point his recently purchased White Gold Cartier Love Ring came off and he only noticed when he got back to his room.  He tried looking for it but the waters were stirred up and impossible to see.  Four Seasons Security convinced him I would come out and hunt the ring for him as he had been a bit hesitant at first.  I immediately called Ronnie and agreed to come out after work the next afternoon.  Ronnie gave me all the details I needed to start the hunt.  The tide and surf was up but I was in the most protected area off the lagoon so the hunt was relatively easy.  I found a few foil targets then on about the 7th leg of my grid I got a booming tone on the Manticore.  Surprisingly,  it took three scoops to recover the ring in belly depth water.  I went back to my car and texted Ronnie a pic of his ring then followed up with a call.  We met down buy the beach attendants booth for the return.  A few handshakes and hugs and Ronnie was so relieved his vacation was saved.  Aloha to Ronnie!

I received a call from Hector’s girlfriend telling me that he had lost a very personal medallion in the sand at the beach. It was already dark when she called, but knowing that the County machine cleans that beach daily, I let them know I was able to come and do a search right away.

I met Hector at our agreed to meeting point, and he then walked me out to the area of the loss. His girlfriend was out there holding the place, which was very helpful because finding areas at the beach at night can be a little tricky. I was able to see where they had been searching, and began my search there. It wasn’t long before I got a great signal, dug, and had Hector’s medallion in the scoop. It had been his Grandfather’s, and meant a lot to him. Another successful search, with a happy ending. Hector did not want his face in the shot, but he was smiling.

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible! I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again.

Pictures From A Day At The Beach Leads To Lost Gold Wedding Band Being Found On Very Wide Beach

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

Emerald Isle, NC

Anne messaged Crystal Coast Ring Finders. She explained she may have lost a gold ring on the beach. She removed her ring and placed it in a backpack. They used the backpack to bike ride a few miles up to a nearby park. The next morning, I met Anne very early and we proceeded to the location. Anne lost the ring two days prior and tried to locate the ring while raking the sand surface the day after she lost it. Upon arrival, I could still see where she searched and started my hunt over that area. Unfortunately, I did not find anything except a few pieces of garbage metal. I asked Anne if anyone took any pictures of the area and this was the key to figure out exactly where they had set up during the beach visit. I began searching more to the Southwest. My XP Deus II locked onto a very loud signal. Seconds later, Anne’s custom made green gold wedding band was back in the sunlight.

Thank you Mabel (Anne’s young pup) for the assistance and entertainment!

White Gold Wedding Ring Lost At The Kids Park. Braeside St. Albert

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

Sebastian contacted me, requesting my assistance in locating his wedding band, which he had inadvertently lost a few minutes prior to our conversation. He informed me that he was present with his two daughters at the park, where he was pushing one of them on the swing. Suddenly, he felt his ring slip off his finger and into the sand, becoming invisible.
Sebastian diligently searched the area he believed his ring had landed, but unfortunately, he was unable to locate it. Fortunately, I was only five minutes away from his current location. I promptly informed him that I would be there shortly. Upon meeting Sebastian, within a few minutes, his ring was miraculously returned to his finger.

Yarmouth, MA via Alaska to Find a Hearing Aid by Richard Browne

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

August 5, 2025: Yesterday afternoon my home phone rang and the number showed up on my TV. 907 is an Alaska area code, I had to find out about the caller and answered the call. As the call started about a loss and need for help, I was ready to pack and head for Alaska. I had been in Alaska back in the 1980’s and enjoyed every day there. The call went on about Kenneth’s mother, Virginia, loosing a hearing aid while doing some yard work. Though I was not lucky enough to have to go to search in Alaska, but rather in my town of Yarmouth, MA.

So far this year I have a 100% success rate for finding lost hearing aids – two of them. For now, after the phone call I would call Virginia in the morning and arrange to search for the hearing aid that would spend the evening in the garden. OK, all set 9:30am and the search will begin. Virginia, a bit older than I am but really sharp and very interesting to talk with from her life in Alaska working on the pipe line, sky diving with her grandson on his 16th birthday wish of her grandson, getting caught overnight between two avalanches, and to a more mundane life style of being a volunteer librarian who has now has lost two hearing aids. Virginia found the first in a evening’s rainstorm just outside her car and not inside the library where she thought it had been lost. Good news, it still worked and she had not stepped on it.

Now it was my turn to search for a hearing aid after her best try the day before did not turn it up. I started the area search with a 7” coil on my detector, I should have put the 4” coil on at it would have got into areas that the 7” one would not fit into. Not to worry, my handheld pin-pointer could cover all the smaller areas I could not reach otherwise. I started searching the ground and moved upward onto one of the climbing plants. Maybe the hearing aid had been caught on a branch. No, back to the ground and after three other metal objects, I had a signal that turned out to be caused by the close proximity of a metal object, in this case the minuscule battery of a hearing aid.

Virginia was nearby and was over whelmed by my success. The hearing aid survived the night in the garden and now ready to help Virginia hear her granddaughter’s speech more clearly. It was the granddaughter’s questioning of her grandmother “Why do you always ask me to repeat myself?” that prompted Virginia’s son, Kenneth, to arrange a hearing test that ultimately lead to Virginia’s use of hearing aids, especially when with her granddaughter. Little devices that can really help the quality of life of everyone around as well as the wearer of the hearing aids can remedy the need to request someone to repeat themselves. I also wear them and can relate. Going back I can remember my grandmother’s hearing aid, a little box that hung on her chest, had a wire going to her ear and made horrible squeals. No matter, GRANDMOTHERS are the best!

Extremely Sentimental Rings Found at a Vermont Beach

  • from Barre (Vermont, United States)
Contact:

8/6/25

I got a voicemail around noon today from a woman who had lost 3 rings yesterday. She and her husband had been visiting Vermont from out of state and were close to the end of their vacation when she lost her wedding, engagement and a silver ring at a public beach at one of our awesome state parks. They also had accidentally fully discharged their electric car’s battery which added some extra stress and inconvenience.

Not only was it her wedding rings, but her engagement ring was made with her grandmother’s diamond. That and being lost in a public place put top priority in getting there quick! So, as soon as I could I met them at the beach. She showed me the 3 areas they might have been lost, and we started with the most likely place. After about 20 minutes, I got a very promising signal with mixed tones. I pushed the pinpointer into the sand and there was her wedding ring! Did it again and out popped her engagement ring! Seconds later we found her silver ring. All 3 were within inches of each other!

What a fantastic moment! I’m so glad they are going home tonight with her rings.
