You can rent a Metal Detector or buy one to search for what you have lost and still not find it. I have over 54 years of Metal Detecting experience and it could pay off in finding what you thought was lost forever.

I received a text message in regards to a Lost Ring and if I could help find it, I reached out right away because the beaches are now starting to get packed and a lot of people are now looking for lost items. I heard the story and headed out right away to help this young man find a family heirloom ring.

We met at the beach we walked to the location, and thankfully, he took photographs because he almost put me in the wrong area, but after looking at the pictures for a while, he located the exact spot in this search only took five minutes and he had his beautiful gold, family, heirloom Ring backward back where belonged. I love my job. I love helping people find what they thought was lost forever and reconnecting them with something so important.

Lost wedding band recovered

  • from Denver (Colorado, United States)
Contact:
This past weekend I received a call from Kyle after he found my information on theringfinders.com. He had lost his 18 kt gold wedding band while throwing the ball for his dog Moose. He had seen the ring go flying and even seen where it bounced off the concrete patio. He raked the yard, spent time on his hands and knees and even purchased a pinpointer from a large on-line retailer. But his attempts to find the ring were fruitless.
Stephanie Hobbs and I were at his house within an hour of taking his call. We scoured the yard with our detectors, searching some of the area multiple times. Stephanie asked Kyle if he knew his neighbors, thinking that the ring may have flow over or through the fence. He did not know the neighbors well and it appeared they may not be home anyway. Then Stephaie asked if he had a ladder so that we could look over the fence, he only had a stepstool. Due to the lack of height in Stephanie I had to get on the stepstool to peer over the fence. Within a few seconds I spotted the ring laying in the mulch on the neighbor’s side of the fence. I got down off the stepstool and reached under the fence as Kyle guided me, I pulled a hand full of mulch to our side of the fence. That is when Stephanie used her pinpointer to locate the ring. TEAM WORK was the word for the day.

A baby’s christening ring — lost in the grass, and a family’s hope restored

A baby’s christening ring — lost in the grass, and a family’s hope restored

Some recoveries stay with you longer than others. This one is from the summer of 2025 — and it carried a weight far greater than the size of the ring itself.

Sandra reached out to me after finding my contact information through TheRingFinders. Her message was filled with worry. During their daughter’s christening that summer, the baby had worn a tiny christening ring — a ring that had been passed down through generations in her family. A symbol of love, tradition, and heritage. And now… it was gone.

The ring had slipped away somewhere on their own yard, on a small patch of grass. Not a large area, but when something that precious disappears, even a few square meters can feel like an ocean.

My wife and I packed the car with everything we needed. She joined me on the drive — a little over an hour — and the whole way there, we could feel the tension of the situation. Losing a family heirloom is not just losing an object. It’s losing a piece of history.

When we arrived, Sandra greeted us with a mix of hope and fear. She showed us the exact spot where the christening had taken place, where family had gathered, where photos had been taken… and where the ring had vanished without a trace.

I suited up, powered on the XP Deus, and began sweeping the lawn slowly, carefully, listening for that one signal that would change everything.

Ten minutes passed. Then fifteen.

And suddenly — a clean, strong tone. The kind that makes your heart jump before your hands even start digging.

I knelt down, brushed the grass aside, and there it was.

The tiny christening ring. Untouched. Waiting to be found.

Sandra’s reaction… it’s hard to put into words. Relief, joy, disbelief — all at once. Her eyes filled with tears, and in that moment, the entire weight of the mission hit me. This wasn’t just a ring. It was a memory. A legacy. A piece of her family’s story that she thought was gone forever.

And now, it was home again.

Another recovery — but one I’ll never forget.

3 PLATINUM DIAMOND SET LOST IN KANNAPOLIS, NC… FOUND!!!

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

This young lady lost her beautiful platinum diamond ring set while cleaning up around some shrubs in her back yard with her husband.

At one point she looked down, at her hand and saw they were missing! She was so upset! They looked around the area for a while but couldn’t find them. Mr. Glen googled metal detecting services and found me “THERINGFINDERS.com” page and sent me a text. Mr. Glen also called his son and his son was going to buy a metal detector and try and find it. But Mr. Glen wanted someone that knew how to find them to come out and try first. We set a day and time for me to come out.

I make the drive, after work and found her rings at the base of one of the shrubs they had been cleaning up in less than 5 mins!

They both were so happy and so grateful! I love seeing folks with a smile and full of joy after something as priceless, as these rings were to them, found and returned!

Lost Ring at a Construction Site in Woolwich NJ

  • from South Jersey (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

 

Kevin called me after a friend of one of my successful recoveries referred me. He lost his 

titanium wedding band while at work. He was at a large construction project, working with moving sprinklers & hoses from different lots. It could be on 1 of 4 lots. We agreed on a 6:30 am time for the search.

I met Kevin at the construction site. It is a huge new housing development. He showed me the 4 properties that he was working on. The lots were not that large. I started on the 1st one, no luck. Moved to the second lot, strike 2. The third lot was the biggest, strike 3. But I was not out yet…

The fourth lot, about 5 minutes in, I finally got a good tone. Spread the grass from the newly laid sod, and there was Kevin’s ring. I took some pictures, then called Kevin to come to the 4th lot. He showed up about 5 minutes later. I asked him if there was any other place it might be, he went to the bed of his pickup and started looking there. I held up his ring while we continued to look. The look on his face when he realized that I was holding his ring was priceless. He explained that he was leaving the next day for vacation with his wife & kids to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary. 

I asked him what his wife would say when she found out he had his ring back. He decided to FaceTime her while I was there. She couldn’t believe it when he held up the ring for her to see. I hope they had a GREAT vacation!

Lost Key Fob Recovered on Surf City Beach, LBI by Edward Trapper – NJ Ring by Finder”

Edward Trapper NJ ring Finder recovering lost fob on LBI

I was contacted by Brian regarding a lost key fob somewhere on a local beach. His daughter had been out the previous night walking along the shoreline, enjoying the full moon, when the key fob unknowingly fell from her purse.

The search area was quite large since she had covered a significant distance during her walk. Upon arrival, I began in the most probable drop zone but didn’t receive any signals.

I expanded the search northbound for approximately one block, attempting to follow what appeared to be her footprints, but still no luck. I then returned to the original area and searched closer to the waterline—again with no success.

Re-evaluating the situation, I decided to follow another set of tracks heading south that seemed consistent with her path. Roughly 50 feet into that direction, I received a strong signal. One scoop later, the lost key fob was recovered.

As is often the case, the item was located in the last area searched—but persistence paid off.

The key fob was successfully returned, and another client was relieved to have their property back.

How to Find a Lost Ring in the Yard in Huntsville, Alabama

Contact:

Derrick texted me on Tuesday (April 14, 2026) stating he needed help finding his girlfriend’s (Rachel) rose gold ring with diamonds and a sapphire in Huntsville, AL.  I asked how the ring was lost.  Derrick replied that him and Rachel had gotten into a little argument, she took off the ring and handed it to him, and he tossed it towards the backyard.  This is definitely not the first and won’t be the last ring toss search I’ll receive.  It actually happens way more than people think, and I really appreciate their honesty.  It’s very important having all the fine details, because I can only find something if I’m searching in the right area.  I told Derrick that I’d be more than happy to help and that I could conduct a search when I was off from work on Friday or the weekend.

I met Derrick and Rachel on Friday morning at 9am.  I had Derrick stand in the same spot and do a couple of test throws.  Derrick felt it was just a light toss and Rachel thought he hurled it.  I decided to start searching past the chain link fence in the backyard by where the test rings landed.  Derrick and Rachel moved a trampoline out of the search area and I got to work.  I made a couple of grid line passes and was about to start checking the neighbor’s yard.  I decided to search the small strip of yard before the fence (where Derrick was standing) first, in case it was just a light toss; and sure enough, there was Rachel’s ring!  Woo-hoo, thank you, Lord!  It had only landed about 10 feet away.  Rachel and Derrick were so happy to have the ring back.  They both felt really bad about the toss; but hey, things happen.  We’re all human and sometimes we let emotions get the best of us.  Again, I just really appreciated them being honest with how the ring was lost.

We chatted about some of my prior searches for a few minutes before I headed home.  Until the next one, please take care and God bless!

LOST GOLD HEIRLOOM CLASS RING IN DURHAM, NC…..FOUND!!!

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

I received a text from a young man at Duke University. He stated he lost a family heirloom class ring. I told him I’d come out tonight and see if I could find it.

I get there and get the story. He was playing frisbee and threw it awkwardly when he felt the ring fly off but didn’t see where it landed.

I start my search and in about 20 mins I found the lost ring in the area of about where he felt it had to have landed. It was found based on the information provided.

I asked him if he could share the history of the ring.

This is a short story of the ring:

“The ring was from my great uncle’s high school graduation in 1953. He later became an army officer and passed away from his service before I was born (I was named after him).

It was then given to my uncle, who passed away, then to my dad who gave it to my sister, who passed it to me. It’s now been in our family for 73 years.”

I was so glad this one was found and returned! All ring recoveries are important, but the sentimental and heriloom ones are the most rewarding.
