I got a call from a young lady by the name of Tiffany, she asked if I was the guy who found lost ring’s, I said yes I am, please tell me your story. Tiffany and I talked on the phone for approximately 30 minutes in regards to her lost rings, three in total, two silver, and one custom made gold ring with a diamond and two Sapphires. She went on to tell me that she was at the beach for most of the day enjoying her friends and social distancing and having a barbeque. During that time at the beach and later in the day when she was getting ready to go home, Tiffani realized that she was missing three rings.

As you can imagine she was very upset and could not believe that she had lost them, as she did feel them come off her finger, however she was wearing gloves and took them off many times during the day at the beach. To me, this made sense that her rings could’ve easily have been pulled off with the glove.

We set up a time to meet up at the beach at 6 PM when I arrived and met Tiffany she showed me the area where she spent most of the day. I started my grid search and 10 minutes into the search I found the first ring, a small silver one. This was exciting because the rings have been lost for two days and I knew it was very possible someone else may have beaten us to them. By finding the silver ring I had a very good feeling all three rings would be found today, 24 minutes later I found her custom gold ring which was the most important ring to find for her! Fifteen minutes after that I found the third ring, what a great feeling to be able to find all three rings two days after they were lost, at a public beach where a lot of people metal detect.

You can only imagine how happy Tiffany was to have her custom made ring that she had for 24 years, back on her finger! All three rings were found in different locations but not far from each other, this tells me they came off three separate times when she pulled her gloves off. With

COVID 19  and the number of people wearing gloves, I wonder how often this is happening where people throw their gloves into the garbage and lose their ring with it.

Lost wedding ring in bushes, St. Augustine, Fl….Found with a metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Mike McInroe…Metal Detector Specialist…Call ASAP Anytime…24/7..321-363-6029

Chris was just getting started on a relaxing hike in the Moses Creek Conservation Area and with all the warm weather and rain the mosquitos have been out in record number this year. As he was walking along he felt something biting him on the back of his left calf and he instinctively swatted at it and as his hand glanced off of his leg he felt and saw his wedding ring go sailing into the thick grass and bushes. He instantly dropped his backpack and began looking through the brush hoping desperately to find his ring. An hour passed and then two and still Chris could not locate his lost wedding ring. He decided to go home for a break and eat some lunch and then he returned to the very spot and continued searching the thick tangle of palmettos and brush. Another two hours passed and no ring! Dejected and discouraged Chris went home and began searching for the nearest place to purchase a metal detector. He decided to order one on line but it would take 5 to 7 days to arrive in the mail and he was anxious about not having his ring and wanted to do something more about finding it sooner. Another search led him to theringfinders.com and after reading some of the success stories he opted to give me a call. Chris explained what happened and the next day I met him at the trail head and armed with my trusty Garrett ATMax metal detector we set off down the path to the exact spot where he last saw his ring. It was quite obvious where he lost it because of all the trampled down brush and bushes. I set up my metal detector in Zero Mode, then ground balanced the machine and started searching along the edge of the trail working my way into the thicker brush. It became obvious that swinging a metal detector would not work effectively so we decided to step on the bushes and by bending them over it would allow me to swing my coil over each area. It took 15 minutes until I got a repeatable signal that had promise. Peering into the thick tangle I had to use my Garrett “carrot” pin pointer to actually locate Chris’s lost ring. Chris was elated and overjoyed to have his wedding ring back on his finger and as we walked back to our vehicles we talked of metal detecting and the joys and thrills of finding lost treasure!

Thank you Chris for allowing me to help you! And if there are any others out there who need my help, please call, text or email me, ASAP!

Lady’s White Gold Wedding and Engagement Rings Lost in the Dry Sand – Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Tanna called me shortly before 1pm from a number that showed Vancouver, WA. She said she had lost her rings around Windy Hill in North Myrtle Beach. When I started asking about the location, she put her grandfather on the phone who gave me the exact location. When Tanna got back on, I asked her whether she had been in the dry sand, wet sand, or the ocean when she lost them. When she responded she lost them in the dry sand, I got really excited. It’s not very often I get a call for lost rings in the dry sand; they’re mostly lost in the ocean. During the back and forth with questions and answers, I ask if she could Google earth me the beach, with the area circled. She could and she did! When I asked how she lost them, she told me she had put them in a little pouch connected to the beach chair, and then forgot about them. Later, she told me she didn’t realize they were gone until around 8pm as she was helping her grandmother with dinner and the dishes. So far, this was sounding like one of those searches you dream about. I grabbed my Equinox 800 and was out the door.

When I got to the beach about 1:30, I called her to confirm a couple of small issues, mainly about where they had been sitting. One thing she brought up is that they had been sitting behind the life guard stand. Unfortunately, the stand had been moved to the top of the beach near the sand dunes. But, it gave me a better idea of where to search. I started a grid line from the guard stand to the wet sand line working my way south. After the sixth grid line, I moved back to my starting point and starting working my way north. On my third line, I got a solid VDI of 6 on the detector which was what I was expecting for a lady’s white gold ring. I took a shallow scoop of sand and laid it out on the beach and saw a beautiful diamond looking up at me, with the rest of the ring still buried. After picking her engagement ring up, I ran my coil around the same area and got another 6 on the VDI, I knew this one was her wedding band. I took a picture and sent her a text saying “BOOM!” with the picture of both rings. I called her, and I could tell she was very excited and grateful. Finding out she was only an hour and a half away, we agreed to meet halfway at a McDonalds. When we met, I was able to meet her husband, Alex. I got the biggest hug from Tanna and a firm handshake from Alex, both of which validates exactly why The Ring Finders exist!

Tanna and Alex – Thank you for trusting me and The Ring Finders to help find your lost treasures. Be safe and take care of each other.

Jim

Wedding Set recovered in Ocean Grove NJ by Dennis Burlingame

Contact:

Was just sitting down to eat and I got a call from fellow Ring Finder Matty St Germain asking if I could run to Ocean Grove to look for a lost wedding set. Said I would and loaded up the detector and headed out. I called Dascha and told her I was on my way and asked where to meet her. She was on the beach enjoying the day with her husband Gregg. She wanted to go down to the water and handed Gregg her rings to hold on to so not to lose them. Gregg slipped them on his pinkie finger but he also just put on lotion. He got up and walked down to the water edge to be with Dascha and then noticed the rings were missing. Dascha went on google and found Ring Finders and called Matty but he couldn’t go so he reached out to me. They were waiting for me on the beach and with luck would have it, it started to rain. I asked Gregg to mark the path he took to walk down to the water and told them no need to stay in the rain because I didn’t know how long it was going to take. They took their chair and headed to the car and I figure the best place to start was where they were sitting. Started detecting around where the chair was and first target was her band, detected a little more in the area and not to far was her engagement ring. I started to walk off the beach and called them and she was still on the boardwalk because Gregg was getting the car. She couldn’t believe I found them already and was so glad and grateful to have her rings back where they belonged. Great Happy Ending to a rainy afternoon.

Wedding Band recovered in Long Branch NJ by Dennis Burlingame

Contact:

Got a call from Fellow RingFinder Matty St Germain asking if I could do a recovery in Long Branch because he was busy and couldn’t make it. I called Katie and told her i’d be able to help her and should be to the beach club she was at within a half hour. Katie met me at the entrance of the club and took me to the spot she was sitting when she lost her ring. Seems she took off her ring to put lotion on and placed it on a towel on her beach chair and forgot it was there. The towel was taken off the chair and the ring went flying. While searching for the ring in the sand someone mentioned Ring Finders seeing Matty and I have been to the club a few times before, and they kinda knows us. I started searching and the first target turned out to be trash but after moving over a few feet I heard the tone I was hoping for and said your ring should be right here. I pushed the sand away with my foot and there was her ring. She beat me reaching down to get it ,she was so excited to see it again. So glad I was able to return her ring to her. Always a great feeling. She told me I saved the day. Another Happy Ending….

Ring lost at La Jolla Shores found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Annabelle was at La Jolla Shores surfing when, while ducking under an incoming wave, her hard earned graduation ring popped off her finger and plunged in the waist deep surf. After an online search, Annabelle’s mother Ginny, called me about an hour and half later to see if I could help. Do beaches eat rings? Sure I could! At least I would give it the old college try! Surf hunts are never easy, and with a storm southwest of us causing some bigger surf, this was going to be an extra challenge. I picked 11:30pm as a time to meet, as low tide was going to be coming up at 1:15am. Annabelle lost her ring about and hour and fifteen minutes from +5.9 high tide, so, with a -.01 low tide coming up, the ring should only be in very shallow water or wet sand. I met with Ginny, Annabelle, and her two brothers on time and we proceeded to the search area. As I suspected, the surf was not going to cooperate. Rouge waves kept blasting up the wet sand wiping out my grid marks, and after a half hour and a few tries going from beach to breakers, I gave up on that plan and tried running parallel to the shore where I was able to take some bearings from lights off in the distance to help keep me on a straight line. After another 15 minutes and not finding a single non-ferrous target all night, I got a nice solid 10 on my Equinox in ankle deep water. One scoop later, and I see a nice looking ring in the basket. I walked over to Annabelle and Ginny and asked if this was THE ONE. Annabelle picked up the ring in relief, joy, and disbelief. A pleasure to meet you all, and thank you for the reward.

I got a call from Brian letting me know that there had been a ring loss at the beach the evening before. He and his wife were visting from Northern California, and were ready to go home. He had put his wife’s rings in his shirt pocket ,and then proceeded to play beach tennis, not thinking about them being lost. When he was done, and they had moved to a different location, he realized they were gone. Knowing that this beach is cleaned very well, I let him know that I would come as soon as possible.

When I got there, and Brian showed me the area, I could see that he had gone over the whole area with sifters, that drag through the sand, yet was unable to locate the rings. I then began to search where he had been sitting, and then towards where they had moved to. It was then that Brian encouraged me to look in the court first. I went back and began a grid in the court. After 2 passes got a good signal, and dug the diamond studded wedding band. Just 3 feet further out popped the engagement ring, a real beautiful set to be sure. When I showed Brian he was so happy because they were supposed to leave that morning to go home back up North. Well now they could go, and Brian was no longer in the “dog house”. A wonderful morning!

Darren called; he had been at the beach with his family celebrating an anniversary, and had removed his ring to enter the water, putting it in a bag. When they moved everything to leave and got to the car he realized the ring was missing. They went back and conducted a thorough search of the area, with no luck. I told him I would be there as soon as I could make it, and he agreed to meet me when I arrived to show me the area of the loss.

When I arrived we met up quickly, and went directly to the search area. I could see that there had been an extensive search because of the grid marks in the sand. I began my search, and found that the area was very clean from metal debris. I found one bottle cap, and right after got a good signal digging up a nice chunky gold ring. I held it up, and Darren was totally surprised, because it was right in the middle of their grid search. He wanted to give me a hug, but because of COVID stood down. Needless to say he was overjoyed to have his ring back, but did not want his picture taken. A great day!

Joshua called about losing his ring. He had been at the beach when he noticed it missing. I told him I would come and do the search for him, and that the sooner we do it the better.

I got there, and he showed me where to look. It did not take long, as he put me in the right place, and I was able to return his token of love. A short and sweet search for sure, and a happy smile.
