Lost Wedding Rings Recovered at Carpinteria State Beach – Dave The RingFinder Strikes Again!
Early Sunday morning, Alesha texted me in a panic—she’d lost her platinum wedding rings while camping with family at Carpinteria State Beach. She’d safely tucked them in her pocket near the firepit, but when heading back to the van, they were gone. Another detectorist had already spent 30 minutes searching the campsite and found nothing—but Alesha was certain they were there. I arrived ready to grid the firepit area (notorious for metal trash like pull tabs and bottle caps). Platinum rings give a specific tone and ID on my detector, so I knew exactly what to hunt for, even masked by junk. Just 3 minutes in, a solid tone rang out—I scooped with my CKG sand scoop, and her diamond engagement ring popped out! Cheers erupted from the growing crowd of campers. Pressure on, I switched angles, hunting east-to-west, then 90 degrees north-to-south. A clipped tone with a 10 ID led to the scoop—and there was her wedding band, tangled with a pull tab! Alesha left Carpinteria State Beach overjoyed, heading home to San Diego with both rings back on her finger.

I recently got a call from Glory, a young woman unwinding after weekend classes at Pacifica Graduate Institute near Santa Barbara. She’d been playing volleyball with friends on a grassy field when a powerful spike sent her grandmother’s ring soaring off her finger into the grass. Glory and her friends searched for hours in the Montecito-area hills, but the ring stayed hidden. Desperate, they turned to the internet and found me—Dave MacDonald, the local metal detection specialist—and set up a time for me to help.
I couldn’t make it that day, but I promised Glory I’d arrive at sunrise the next morning. She was nervous about heading back to Berkeley before the search, so I reassured her I’d mail the ring to her once found. At dawn, I arrived in Summerland—just minutes from Carpinteria and Montecito—met the campus security guard, and mapped out a grid pattern to scan with my Minelab Manticore. After three careful passes, I got a sharp high tone. Using my pinpointer, I confirmed a surface target, parted the grass, and there it was: a stunning 24k gold ring nestled in the green.
I showed it to the guard, and we agreed it matched Glory’s description. I snapped a photo, texted it to her, and confirmed it was her grandmother’s ring. Now, it’s safely on its way back to Berkeley, where it belongs!
