LOST – LSU GRADUATION RING – FOUND ON LSU CAMPUS

  • from Lafayette (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

Carrie and Sid received a call from William’s friend, Cambell. William and he were walking home after watching LSU win the first game of the College World Series finals. William was standing on a ledge on LSU campus when he slipped and fell into some shrubs. He realized his recently earned graduation ring had slipped off his finger. This was the ring his proud grandparents had given him. He and Cambell searched late that night and early the next morning without success. That’s when they found the Ringfinders site. After the call, we headed out to the location. Thick with bushes, metallic confetti and some beer cans we ended up primarily crawling and using pin pointers. Carrie found the ring within 15 minutes.  The guys were jubilant as were we.

Thank you for your generous reward!  GO TIGERS!!

White Gold Wedding/Engagement Band Set-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

Ryan contacted me several weeks ago about his wife’s white gold wedding/engagement band set she had lost in a grassy area of the apartments where they lived in Chattanooga.  Because of his busy work schedule he had a difficult time getting the search arranged.  I think he had actually purchased an off-the-shelf metal detector at a local store, but was apparently overwhelmed with the large amounts of metallic trash in the ground.  We finally managed to arrange a search on June 9th.  I arrived at the location at 7:15 PM on June 9th.  I started my search as soon as I got the story from him, because we didn’t have much daylight left.  Around 35 minutes later I found the engagement band portion totally hidden below the grass around four feet from the base of a large tree.  It took me right at an hour more to find the wedding band portion, and it was about twenty feet from where I found the other half.  It ended up being in an area outside of the original search zone.  The grass had been cut, so maybe that’s how it ended up being over there.  This portion of the ring was in full view of anyone walikg by, so it’s amazing nobody had seen it.

Ring lost in Ocean Beach found

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

Bailey was at the beach, took his ring off, and tucked it into a shirt for safety. This is not just an ordinary ring. I is a big silver ring with an Indian cent mounted in the center, and was willed to him from his now deceased brother. Such an important family heirloom just had to be found!  With sunset approaching and the tide rising, I had to hot foot it down there immediately. I met Bailey at the beach and he showed me the relatively small search area just above the wet sand. At one point, he had moved from his original spot to a different location on the dry sand and apparently his ring escaped and fell somewhere between the two spots. The first spot was empty, so, I proceeded to the other spot, detecting along the way. My first target along the way sounded like it could be the ring, but, it was just a quarter. I continued my grid line and my next target was the object we both wanted to see. Bailey was very happy and relieved that it was recovered. A pleasure to meet you Bailey and thank you for the reward.

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Contact:

In the midst of celebration at Malibu West Beach club, a groom’s wedding ring became the victim of a sandy mishap, sparking a late-night text of distress. Amidst the post-ceremony jubilation, the ring slipped off unnoticed during beachside photoshoots, leaving the newlyweds in a desperate search on the expansive shores.

Granted access to the club the following Sunday afternoon, I embarked on a time-sensitive mission to locate the lost ring. Despite scouring the photo locations meticulously, my efforts were fruitless, yielding only bottle caps and spare change. With time slipping away, I redirected my focus towards the lifeguard tower and surrounding areas, praying for a breakthrough.

A strong signal near the lifeguard tower signaled a stroke of luck, as the elusive ring revealed itself in the sands, snugly nestled in the scoop. Though the couple was absent to celebrate the recovery, I assured them of the safe return of the precious wedding ring, promising to mail it to await their return from honeymoon bliss.

Sentimental Engagement Ring Found on The Beach in Ocean Park, Maine With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)
Contact:

On Sunday, June 11, my wife and I we out riding our road bikes. I saw my phone going off and a voicemail was left. We rode another 10 minutes and stopped at Camp Ellis beach, so I could check the voicemail. The voicemail was from Tom and his wife had just lost her engagement ring. Molly had lost her engagement ring, in the surf, in Ocean Park, Maine. Luckily, Ocean Park is only about 3 miles from where we were and just 15 minutes away on our bikes. I called Tom back immediately and told him we would be right there. When we arrived, Tom and his wife Molly were still visually searching for the ring, in the now wet sand, as the tide was going out.
Molly explained how she was putting the ring on her hand and it had fallen into the surf she was standing in. She immediately looked up and looked at the house on the shore and used it as a landmark as to where she was located when the ring fell into the waves. A very smart move as knowing the exact location where it was lost is crucial to finding the ring before the tide comes back in.
After Tom and Molly explained what happened and where the ring most likely was, we rode our bikes back home, in about 20 minutes and I got my equipment together. I was back in Ocean Park with in 45 minutes of leaving there on my bike.
I started a grid search, parallel to the beach, working my way in, from the water to the shore, trying to beat the incoming high tide. Tom and some friends continued the visual search while I continued detecting with my CTX-3030, with a 17 in coil. Finally, after approximately a hour and 15 minutes, I received a very strong signal with a great sound low tone. I knew this was most likely the ring. Scoop went in the sand and when I dumped the sand, I could see the gold band. I picked it up, cleaned it off and saw the diamond and two sapphires. We had the ring. I looked over to Tom, gave him a nod of the head and thumbs up. The smile on his face was priceless and I will always remember it.
Tom explained that the Diamond was his Great Grandmother’s diamond from her engagement ring and was passed down to Tom’s mother and used as his mother’s diamond engagement ring. Now, Tom’s wife is using the diamond in her engagement ring, making this a truly sentimental ring, for 4 generations .

It was the Friday before Memorial Day that Andres contacted me. He told me that he had lost his wedding ring while throwing a football to his son in the water at the beach. It had been 5 days, and I let him know that the possibility of a recovery had diminished because of the time involved, but let him also know that there was always hope. We decided to do a search that day, and arranged to meet at the location.

When we got there Andres took me out to the location of the loss, and explained what had happened. I began my search, working in and out of the water, up and down the slope. The problem was that the tide was coming in and pushing me up the slope, and limiting the area I could search. I searched for a couple of hours, but was unable to find his ring. I explained this to him, but told him that I would return the next day as the tide was going down, to search again, which I could see pleased him.

I got back to the beach Saturday morning as the tide was lowering, but Andres was unable to be there. I began my search again working way down the slope and into the water, gradually working my way up again. After about two hours in, and many pieces of metal trash, I received another signal to dig, this time it was Andres ring. I was excited; six days later, and it was still there. I sent him a text with the good news and a picture of the ring, and he replied that when he saw it tears came to his eyes. He came to the beach to get his ring back and we talked. He said you don’t know what this means to me, and then he told me his story. Andres is a Marine who served during the Gulf War. He recently lost his mother, his son just had a life threatening head injury, and he himself just had a life threatening and possibly debilitating medical emergency, then to top it all off he loses his wedding ring of 17 years. He got to wondering if things were going to get any worse, then I recovered his ring, and hope returned. I felt so honored to be the one to reignite the fire of hope in his heart, and to capture that great smile of a Marine veteran right before the day honoring those who served before us.

I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again.

Ring lost at Mission Beach found

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

Uriel was playing in an impromptu volleyball game when his ring flew off while hitting the ball. He thought it landed somewhere close by, but, after looking and searching, it didn’t show up. An online search brought Uriel and his friend to TheRingFinders.com site. His friend called me, and Uriel called Curtis Cox further north. Since I was a lot closer, I got the nod. As usual, the traffic on a Memorial weekend Saturday was a nightmare. I’m glad my wife came with me to circle around with the car as I went out to meet Uriel and search for his ring. I searched the inside boundaries of the court with only one target……a full Busch beer can! They can celebrate with that later! With nothing else in the small court, I started just outside of it. Got a nice hit on the first pass, and it was his ring. Total search time was only a few minutes. Drive time to the beach and back home was over 2 hours for just a 26 mile round trip! A pleasure to meet you Uriel, and thank you for the reward.

Engagement Ring Recovered In Sea Bright NJ

Contact:

Got a late night text from Liliette asking for help in finding her lost engagement ring. I texted her back in the morning and told her to call me when i went on break at work. When she called i told her if she could meet me right away i could drive to Sea Bright and give it an hour and half to try to find her ring. She lives 45 minutes from the beach and said she’d leave ASAP. Mean time I asked for a screen shop of beach and to mark the area she lost the ring. I got to the beach and started to hunt the area but no luck. She arrived with her Fiance and I showed them where I worked and they said I was in the right area. Seem they were there the day before with their dog enjoying the day. The dog at one time desided to run and jerked the leash out of her hand and her ring came off as well and landed in the soft sand and disappeared. They tried to look themselves but had no luck. Then after thinking about it her fiance remember her saying she didnt hope it was going to get washed out with the tide. Where I had already searched was alittle higher up on the beach and I had about a 20 foot wide area from there to the water I didn’t search. I started searching that area and sure enough just at the high tide mark from last nights high tide I found her ring. She couldn’t of been more excited that I found it. Today was their 1 year anniversary of getting engaged. A great Happy Ending.

Wedding and Anniversary set of rings recovered in Long Branch NJ

Contact:

Got an early morning text from Jackie this morning asking for help with in finding her wedding and anniversary ring sets she lost at the beach yesterday in Long Branch. Wanting to enjoy the summer weather we’ve been having, she decided to take the family to enjoy the day at the beach. She took off her rings for safety and placed them in the side pocket of her beach bag. During the course of the day with going in and out of the bag the rings fell out and she didn’t realize it till she went to get them while back at the car. They were gone. She went back down to try and look but had no luck. She told the park ranger to report it in case someone finds them. Living up north she couldn’t come right away to show me where she was but sent a few pictures she took of her son playing and gave me a good idea as to where she was sitting. I loaded up my car and headed right down to the beach and started to search. I wasn’t having much luck and remember she told me there was a flat area by the water she was at. I noticed what was left of that area because it got washed out that night with high tide. I started to search there in the wet sand and within a few passes back and forth I found the first ring and then the rest of them. Luckily the rings didn’t get washed out. I texted her the good news and she couldn’t believe I found them. She was so grateful and relieved, the main wedding ring was handed down through the family and couldn’t be replaced. We made arrangements to meet up that afternoon to reunite her with her beloved rings. A happy ending for everyone.

Ring lost in La Mesa found.

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

Joe was cleaning out a clogged drain on his backyard deck, and when he slung the clog downhill onto a construction debris pile, his family heirloom family crest ring was launched with it. He searched in the mud and debris in vain and contemplated buying a metal detector to help him find it. Instead, he found TheRingFinders.com online and my contact info. We made arrangements later that afternoon to meet and conduct a search. Not a huge area, but, there was a moderate amount of junk in the construction pile, along with some flora and broken up concrete on a steep muddy slope. After gridding that area with two different detectors and two different coils, the ring was still missing. Being a fairly heavy gold ring, maybe it slung farther than the area I was searching, so, I asked if we could check the neighbor’s yard as it was possible the ring made it that far. In looking over the fence, there wasn’t any place for the ring to bury, so, it should just be a visual surface find. There was a walkway down the side of the neighbor’s yard next to Joe’s fence, so, we slowly headed down and checked the ground and plants as we went. With Joe leading the way, we made it about 3/4 of the way down when Joe spotted the ring right on top of the ground in the dirt close to the fence. Joe was very happy to get it back, and as I learned, it was his grandfather’s ring that had been one of the few items he had taken with him out of Hungary right before the USSR took over the country back in the mid 1950’s, and then eventually got passed down to Joe. The ring story continues……..
