Received a call from a woman that lost her matching wedding ring while brushing off snow on her porch.
We got a lot of snow and with the addition of a lot of rebar in the ground it made this one of the more difficult searches but fortunately after about 3 hours I hit it.
She was a happy camper!!
Steve contacted me about a ring he lost around a year ago while putting mulch around his shrubs and flowers. It was cold at the time and slid right off his finger. It really meant a lot to him and his wife since he has had it every since they were married, over 55 years ago.
The search area was pretty small but the metal detector coil is to big to get in between the shrubs and flowers so I had to go over each section with the Minelab Pro-Find 35 Pin pointer. After about 30 minutes of searching the pin pointer sounded on something in the hole beside the root of the last shrub. I caught a little glimpse of gold and pulled out his long lost ring.
I makes me feel sooooo good to be able to find the ring that meant so much to him and his wife! I think you can tell how happy Steve is by the picture.

The last of the beach cleanups were in progress and all went well. The docks were in, the boats as well. It was now time for a relaxing cool off in the lake. As it usually happened when one has weight changes their ring does not resize to echo the body’s change. Then it happens, the ring slips off and disappears underwater and down into the sand, not to be seen without help.
The three, Jim, Joe, and Jeff all knew they would need help in finding Jim’s wedding band. Several calls to friends for a detector that would not self-destruct when used underwater did not produce such a detector. A call to the local Metal Detector Dealer (Eleanor at J&E Enterprise) gave the threesome a lead. They should make a local call to Rick Browne – one of TheRingFinders and Jeff did. I answered the call and set a noon meeting time for the next day as it was almost dark. All was set yet, the night would have some anxious moments.
Leighton and I showed up a bit early as our earlier Ring Return only took a few minutes to complete.
A quick overview of the area were the loss occurred and we were into the water to search for the ring. A few coin and a bullet gave us hope. After about a minute and a half I had a very good sounding signal and yes a very large circular piece of gold was in the bottom of my scoop. I walked it in and let Jim remove his ring, untouched since it has slipped from his finger. Ring Return number two for the morning had been accomplished.
Many thanks, pictures, stories and a lot of history of the local private pond and resort area. The thrill, history, meeting new and now friends and helping others is the most wonderful part of our hobby. Leighton and I work well together, having the same ethics and desires to reunite a lost object with the owner. September 5th was another of those rewarding days we enjoy so much.
(March 2, 2019) While vacationing with her husband and family from Minnesota and spending the afternoon at a nice sunny Florida beach, Nicole discovered that her rose gold diamond wedding engagement ring she’d carefully hidden in a secure location was missing. After sifting trough the sand without result, she found The Ring Finders site and made the call. The rest is history. Another happy customer whose smile says it all, and happy husband too – Blessings!!!

Happy New Year 2019! – I got a call just before Noon on New Years’ Day from a couple requesting help find 2 gold rings lost in the sand at the beach earlier that morning. One was a gold wedding ring with diamonds all around and the a family heirloom, a gold ring with diamond from Grandma. Praise God, the rest is history and the happy smiles speak volumes. What was once lost has again been found, to which we all can rejoice! Again, a Happy New Year 2019!

Dillion was throwing a ball for his dog in a snowy soccer field when he felt his gold wedding band slip from his finger. He immediately marked the spot where he had been standing, then he and his wife began searching the area through 6 or 8 inches of snow. After searching for a long time, they decided they would not be able to find the ring by themselves. They found TheRingFinders and gave me a call. I was able to find the beautiful gold ring quickly about 10 or 15 feet from where Dillon lost it.
