Lost wedding band in Rouge River, Rockford Michigan

  • from Manistee (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Got a call from Ashley S. last week that her husband, Nick S. was tubing in the river and came across a big tree branch that he tried to push away while floating down the rapids. His ring got caught on the branch and popped off. Although the water was crystal clear and shallow the current was too fast and he could not find it. My detector friend Dave Boyer and I went into the river and headed to the second bridge are per Nicks instructions. After searching the rocky bottom for a couple of hours with no ring we met up with Ashley and Nick. Nick got into the water with us and started orienting himself and discovered we were in the wrong area. We started looking in the area where the branch was but still didn’t find his ring. Wedding rings have special meanings to people and Nicks ring was no different but because it was a Titanium ring he felt he could get another one with not a lot of expense. As detectors we come across a lot of Titanium, Tungsten and Stainless Steel rings so I suggested that he pick one of mine out that would fit him. He found one that was like his old ring and it fit. We now have a happy husband and a happier wife. Congratulations to the both of you.

Surfer Loses Sentimental Silver Necklace at San Clemente Pier, Orange County, CA… Found and Returned Next Day

* Nick was surfing at San Clemente Pier in South Orange County, CA.   He put his silver necklace into the pocket of his tee shirt setting it with his other belongings near his towel. After surfing he picked up his clothes to walk over to the showers about 50 yards away. 

When he returned to his vehicle he realized that his necklace was missing. His attempt to find it as unsuccessful. He couldn’t return the next day to search as he was working more than 100 miles from San Clemente, CA.

I got a call from Nick just before 11am the next morning. When he gave me a good description of the area of his loss, I was a little concerned because this is the busiest part of the beach. I may have too many beach goers spread out over the search area. Also Sunday night and Monday morning this part of the beach gets hunted by recreational detectorists.

I made the drive to the San Clemente Pier arriving at noon. After an hour of grid searching with my Minelab Equinox metal detector I was able to get broken signal but I sensed it wasn’t trash. One scoop with my sifter produced Nick’s silver chain. He was able to meet me the next day to retrieve his special necklace.

There were several reasons I could have put off searching for this necklace. I’ve learned to not put off starting a search. Try to stay positive even if things are looking very discouraging. Nick was very happy and amazed that we put this thing together using the inter and a single phone call.

Scussett Beach, Borne, Cape Cod, Massachusetts – Bracelet Lost, Found & Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

The last day of vacation was not to be the last day on Sunny Cape Cod for Dargel. While tossing a football, running sprints, back flopping into the bay’s cool water somewhere along the stretch of beach Dargel’s very sentimental bracelet came loose, fell, and buried itself in the sand. Hours of searching until darkness set in was not enough time to find the bracelet. After flight changes and with a wing and a prayer the bracelet would be found the following day.

When I received the call, and after getting information about a lost bracelet, I knew I had to go. With such a large area to search I would need all the help I could get. I called Leighton, another Ring Finder, and we set up a meet time at the beach with Dargel. His world wide travel companion said that they would be in an army green Jeep Wrangler. OK, who would have known there would be two such Jeeps in the parking lot? It took a call before we found each other. Then it was off to the beach.

Unknown if the loss was in the water or on the sand, we started searching in the water then up the beach front to the dunes. Only a few targets were heard as we detected and gridding the best we could among some late day sun bather. It was my turn to leap-frog past Leighton, make my way further down the beach, stop, turn toward the water, and start detecting again. I heard a good signal which turned out to be a Matchbox car, and then a second car. I gave both cars to a young beach goer who took them to rinse them off in the water. My next signal came from a rather deep target, maybe another car, as I did not think the depth would be correct for bracelet to be at. I had to dig it anyway. WOW the rope bracelet now in my scoop had cubes on it with initials made of diamonds. NICE! Even better than nice, it was Dargel’s missing bracelet. A verification by a photo really was not needed as Dargel’s description would only match the bracelet I had in my scoop.

After some great conversation and taking of photos there was a quick good bye before Dargel was off to Boston and back to Cuba on the next day’s flight – with his bracelet. A terrific ending to two beautiful days. Look out in the next day as tropical storm Isaias will be over the Cape Cod Beaches. Dargel sure knows how to time his trip and is thinking about another trip back to Cape Cod, after having a jeweler repair the bracelet’s clasp.

Lost gold wedding ring returned from duxbury beach

  • from Orleans (Massachusetts, United States)

Two days ago I received a text from Emily regarding the wedding band her husband had lost in duxbury bay a few days ago, she got my number from a recommendation on a Facebook group from a woman who’s iPhone I found diving at the beginning of July. Yesterday I left work a bit early to head off cape to search for the ring and try and beat the ridiculous rain from the tropical storm that was headed this way, upon arrival the tide was out farther than where the ring was lost  which made things pretty easy. 5-10 minutes later I had a good signal which was the ring. I sent a picture to Emily who was very happy to say the least, I ended up meeting her at kohl’s parking lot in pembroke to drop the ring off and then headed home

Rose Gold Ring Recovered

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

Call Surf City Ring Finder 714-944-0555

Nick was horsing around at Huntington State Beach when his ring came off and disappeared into the sand. Luckily someone near by told him about The Ring Finders.

The ring was his late brothers so it was very sentimental. When I arrived there were a few people sifting through the sand hoping it would turn up.

It only took a few minutes of searching to find this very special ring.

Jane got hold of me after the loss of her ring. She had been out body boarding in the warm Summer water when riding a wave in, it smashed her to the sand with enough force to dislodge the ring from her finger. Although she had goggles on, and searched for it, the ring vanished. This really upset her because this was her late mother’s ring, and to lose it was to lose a very sentimental piece of her history. The loss had occurred the day before, and I knew that this beach is combed by detectorists daily, so I told her I would do the search with a hope it was missed.

I planned my search for the early early morning to catch the extreme low tide. I also asked Jane if she could meet me at the spot to show me where the loss occurred. She did come and narrow down the area for me, and I let her know she did not have to stay, so she could feel safe to not have to be out in the early morning darkness. There were not many targets, and after about 2 1/2 hours of searching I did find the ring. There it was in the bottom of my scoop, I was amazed it was still there, but very pleased to know that the other detectorists had missed it. When I got home it was still dark in the morning, but I sent Jane a text letting her know the ring had been found expecting an answer a few hours later, but to my surprise she answered right away with total disbelief. We arranged to meet so I could give this precious ring back to her. When we met she was so happy to have her ring back, and we had a wonderful conversation for a while where I found that I had met a most interesting individual. What a blessed day that was!

I received a call from Raha for her husband Chris. It seems that they had a tent set up on the beach, and as Chris was about to enter it he brushed the sand off of his hand.  In the process his ring flew off of his hand into the soft sand. After a futile search for the ring they found me on the Ring Finders web site. I let them know that I would be there as soon as possible, because they had not left the area, and I knew we could reenact the loss to make the possibility of a recovery more likely.

When I got to the beach they found me quickly and showed me what had happened.  I knew it should be a quick search. I turned my detector on, and swung the coil twice getting a good strong signal. I dug, and there in the scoop was Chris’ ring. I was able to give them back the token of their love. They will be celebrating their first wedding anniversary in September, so this recovery was special. I will be glad when this virus is over, so we can get those smiles back. A wonderful day!

 …. Stender and his wife, Erin were at the Santa Monica Beach Club when he lost his gold wedding band in the sand. His wife Erin knew from a previous ring loss in Maui, Hawaii that there is a metal detecting services available online.

They Google searched metal detecting service and TheRingFinders came up. They called me, agreeing to stay at the location till I arrived. Sometimes it can take more time to find a parking spot than to drive to the location. They had arranged for me to parking in a private parking area which was a bonus for me.

I met them on the sand and it was a short search. The ring was only a few inches under the sand, less than 5 feet away from their beach chairs. They were very grateful for the help and it was a pleasure to help them. These searches are successful because they didn’t waste time trying to find it by hand. They called me in a timely manner. Stayed in the location and arranged for me get parking.

Lost Necklace recovered Minnesota Lake – FOUND

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

I received a call from Joan about a lost Gold Necklace off a fishing dock in Minnesota. The following was written by Joan:

I got this Gold chain for my baby Godiva’s 2nd birthday last year. Unfortunately for me, I went to fish at a lake in Chanhassen and it dropped into the water. I was so stressed and feeling terrible. I contacted the local scuba shop and talked to Scott who could not find it. He recommended Darrin from the ring finders and said that Darrin was a good man and indeed you are. You brought a smile to me and my Princess for finding this Gold Chain. We will forever remember you for your good job and honesty. I will recommend you to everyone. Thanks so much Darrin.

 

So glad I could help Joan, it was a pleasure and it makes me happy to bring a smile to you and your daughter’s face!

Lost Texas A&M Ring – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Sunday closed out what was an epic weekend of recoveries. I didn’t think it could get any better until I got home around noon and saw an email from Jesse. He left his phone number so I immediately called him. Now before I go any further, some of you may not know about my relationship with Texas A&M. Last spring I got a call from an Aggie saying she had  lost her class ring at night and I was lucky enough to find it. Then I was on the beach in the summer and a man approached me saying he lost his, you guessed it, Texas A&M class ring. I found it. Later in the summer, I got another call and after I found his too, I joked that I would need an honorary t-shirt or something if I kept finding them. It happened to get on the Aggie website and people were sharing left and right and messaging me to say thanks and I even got a 12th man towel sent to me. Awesome people. ?. The calls kept coming but I ran into some bad luck. I had the first Aggie ring that I just couldn’t find and then I had another that was lost on the National Seashore and the Ranger would not give me permission to even look. I thought maybe the magic with the Aggies was over. That was until Jessie said the ring he lost was a class ring. I said, wait a minute, are you an Aggie?  When he said yes, I laughed a little to myself and said, I’m coming to find your ring. I talked my secret good luck charm (my wife) into going for some added help and we set off for another hour drive to Alabama. Jesse was still there with his parents standing watch and we talked for a bit before I started my search in the water. There were tons of people and it took all of my social skills to keep a good line while at the same time not risking the Coronavirus. Two hours later I was seriously wishing for the last 2 days where I had quick recoveries. I was determined though and I came back to talk to Jessie and check on my wife. My wife told me later that she had overheard Jesse’s dad consoling him and comforting him saying it would all be ok. She got a bit choked up and decided then to make me keep going no matter what. She is a trooper.   I took a different approach in my questioning with Jesse and felt some renewed hope when I realized Jesse was trying to tell me where he thought the ring would be and not where he was. You can credit his Mom for having him stand in the water where he thought he had lost it. I got a whole new perspective when he said he had walked out in front of one of the volleyball courts but he couldn’t remember which one. I started my second pass and I got a loud signal that sounded like a penny. I had already dug over 50 pennies in the previous hours but I never leave a good signal when I’m helping someone just in case. Sure enough, in the scoop was this young Aggie’s solid gold ring that means an incredible amount to him. I looked up and realized that no one was paying attention and they didn’t see me scoop it. So I took my headphones off and walked over to the family as if I had another question. I said Jesse, one more thing. Looking dejected he said, yes sir?  I said, it was the second volleyball court. As I smiled and held out my scoop they all realized what I was saying and literally jumped up and down hugging each other!  It was awesome!  What other hobby let’s you help so many people. Keep them coming Texas A&M, I don’t ever want you to lose one but if you do, I’ll be here to help. Congrats Jesse, your Mom and Dad and your Collegiate family are awesome!  GIG EM! ?
