Huge Gold Class Ring Lost, Recovered and Returned in Rehoboth Beach, DE!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

As a Ring Finder for 10 years now I have come to love the thrill of being able to return precious, sentimental, sometimes valuable keepsakes to folks who thought they were lost forever! This past Saturday in Rehoboth Beach, DE I found just such a precious, sentimental keepsake! It was a Gold Class of 1962 Kings College (Wilkes Barre, PA) class ring! 1962….This ring was in the possession of someone for 64 years!!! I felt obligated and excited about the challenge of finding its owner. There were clearly engraved initials on the inside: H.F.M. I first posted a picture of the ring in the local Lewes/Rehoboth Facebook Group. Countless people contributed to ideas and strategies to track down the ring’s owner! Fellow Kings College graduates crawled out of the woodwork and put me in touch with the alumni office….Then a 1960 graduate of Kings College found those initials in a 1962 yearbook….Hugh F Mundy. Sadly, Mr Mundy passed away in 2023…what a great man. Decorated war hero and a respected and accomplished PA state judge. His obituary listed his wife and children’s names and a simple google search allowed me to track them down. It turns out Mr Mundy’s daughter, Maura, a fellow Kings College grad, had been wearing his ring every day since his passing.  Maura was devastated when the ring slipped off her finger in the waves at Rehoboth Beach Friday…she assumed the ring was gone forever. I was so happy to get in touch with Maura and her mother and be able to return this ring that was beyond precious to them!

LOST HUGE GOLD RING IN POND NEAR MAXTON, NC….FOUND!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Received a call from this gentleman last night about him losing a big gold ring!

Story goes, he was fishing at a highway pond/revisor and when he casted, the ring flew off and into about 2-2.5 feet of water but got swallowed up by the sandy bottom. He and his buddy jumped in trying to find it with no luck and Brian said he would find someone with equipment to come find it. He searched via ChatGPT and it told him to go to Gold Finders where he found me!

We agreed to meet up today after I got off work.

Drove down, met him at the spot, jumped in the water and scanned around. Found three cans then BOOM his big gold ring!

HE WAS SO EXCITED!! He took to IG and recorded a video of me in the water, full gear and his ring!

Love theringfinders.com page and helping folks get their priceless items back!!

LOST GOLD WEDDING RING AT WHITE LAKE, NC….FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

After finding the tungsten ring near Wilkesboro I received a call from the mom of this young man that he had lost his gold wedding ring at White Lake! I said I’ll be there in 3.5 hours!

Story goes he was running to catch a football and it fell off while running to catch it. He lost the ring before he caught the football. They searched and searched for hours with no luck.

I arrive at 8:00 pm, we walk to the spot and within 20-30 mins I had found his ring.

As I’ve stated, I’ll travel anywhere to help someone find their priceless items.

Lost gold and diamond engagement and wedding rings, FOUND! Wildwood, NJ
By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Nick this afternoon. Nick explained that his wife could not locate her two wedding rings after spending a day on the beach in Wildwood New Jersey. Nick and his wife had checked everywhere and we’re unable to locate the rings. I took the short ride over and met a couple on the beach where they had already marked out a distinct area where they believe the rings could be. Nick‘s wife Christine explained that she had removed the rings for safekeeping to place in her purse. However, upon returning to the hotel, the rings were not in her purse and she was fearing that they had dropped out while she was on the beach. I began searching a fairly tight pattern, and in less than two minutes, I heard the lovely low growl of a gold target. Out popped the diamond engagement ring from the sand! One more sweep across the same area and out came the wedding band! Christine was elated with tears of joy, and understandably so, they are a beautiful set of rings!! Another successful recovery, another happy couple, another vacation saved! 

Christines review: “Lost my rings on the Wildwood beach. Jeff found them in no time. He is a lifesaver!! Thank you!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Married Couple’s Lost Wedding Rings Found on Emerald Isle Beach

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

Brittney discovered Crystal Coast Ring Finders through a social media post and reached out for help in finding both her ring and her husband’s. His ring had once belonged to his great-grandfather, making it especially meaningful to recover.

After some conversation and a bit of detective work, I pinpointed the spot where they had spent time on the beach. A few passes later, I found her husband’s ring and knew hers had to be nearby. Sure enough, it turned up about eight feet away within minutes.

Brittney didn’t send any photos after I mailed the rings to the address she provided, so here’s a picture of me holding them before heading to the post office.

Ring lost at La Jolla Shores found

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

Yared and his wife were visiting here to beat the heat further east. A fun day trip to La Jolla Shores turned sour when Yared lost his wedding ring out in about 3 feet of surf around 4-5pm. I got the call for help at 7pm and arranged to meet them during the next low tide which was at 12:50am. We met a bit early at 11:15pm where I got the story on how it was lost and the probable location. This beach gets detected a lot, so, not many targets to slow me down. After 1/2 hour or so, and only a couple of possible targets, I got a great, solid, 26 on my Equinox 900. A scoop later and I had Yared’s ring in my hand. The now happy couple can continue to enjoy the rest of their stay here before heading home. A pleasure to meet you and thank you for the reward.

Wedding Band Lost During Swim Has Been Found Two Days Later

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

Kevin’s group had just kicked off their vacation week at Emerald Isle, NC, when he headed into the ocean, wading in waist- to chest-deep water. That’s when he felt his wedding band of 10 years slip off his finger. A few days later, a friend told him about detectorists who can search for lost items, and on the second morning after losing the ring, Kevin reached out to me.

I was getting ready for a trip out of state and had little time due to packing and appointments, so I told Kevin I could only spare about two hours to search but would give it my best shot.

Arriving just before low tide, I started in the deepest areas but found nothing at first. After about an hour and more conversation with Kevin, my metal detector suddenly gave off a loud signal. Spotting the ring, I called Kevin over with “a very important question” and asked, “Does it look like this?” Kevin was stunned to see his lost wedding ring.

Lost gold & amethyst ring, FOUND! By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Jordan. Jordan explained that she was enjoying a day at the beach with her family. Jordan decided to wade into the water but took off her rings and was in the process of handing them to her dad when they slipped from his grip and fell into the water. The rings immediately disappeared. Jordan and both of her parents began frantically searching but repeatedly came up empty-handed. That’s when a neighboring beachgoer handed Jordan one of my cards. I took the short ride over from home and met up with the family on the beach less than 15 minutes later after gathering the backstory I found Jordan‘s mother standing in the water, right where the rings dropped. I proceeded into the water and on the first swing, got a low growl tone. After a couple scoops of sand, I had Jordan‘s ring back in my scoop.  Jordan‘s mother explained that this Ring was passed down to Jordan through the family over the years, so even though it was small in size, it had a tremendous amount of sentimental value attached to it. Another happy family another successful recovery!

South Yarmouth Ring Returned By Rick Browne, Smuggler’s Beach

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

July 8, 2026

This was to be my last search until I healed from a pending surgery. I sounded like a leisure walk in the sand. Finding a parking space in the hotel’s narrow parking lot was my first challenge then the door to the beach without shutting a door on the detector shaft or scoop. Now knowing the location of the beach a quick tip toe around other hotel stayer. Yes, the last obstacle behind me, a puzzled guest asks if I was looking for the women that had lost a ring. Of course, with that said, Kelley stood and waved.

After a few questions determined the best possible area. Six feet later one shallow scoop and the ring was on its way back to Kelley’s finger. A few pictures and a bit of information for the posting and I was on my way back home to rest up for tomorrow’s ordeal.
