I was sent a google map location at Bolsa Chica Beach via text to search for a tungsten ring. These are more difficult when the person can’t meet you in person.
I sent pictures to verify which fire pit he was at. I circled the fire pit and on the 5th time around I found his ring. Drive to Long Beach to drop off his ring but forgot to take a picture of him with the ring.
Danny found me on TheRingFinder website after losing his white gold wedding band at a park in Nashville, TN. He had been carrying it in his hand when it slipped out and flew into some grass. He was pretty confident it was in an area about 20 feet by 20 feet. After asking Danny a few questions, I asked him to start a timer. Nineteen minutes into the search with my Minelab Equinox 800 metal detector, I found the ring several feet outside of the 20’ by 20’ search area where Danny thought the ring would be. It was concealed in the 3” tall grass and would have been difficult, if not impossible, to locate without a detector. It was Danny’s information that put me close enough for the ring to be found. He was elated that I found his ring, which is obvious by the huge smile on his face. To make this story even better, a gentleman walked by and congratulated Danny on having his ring found. Come to find out they grew up in the same neighborhood in another state. What a great day to not only re-unite Danny with his lost wedding band, but also have Danny be re-united with an old friend. 
highly recommend when you’re in need!”
Jayce lost her white gold and diamond ring in her back yard. After two days of searching and two new metal detectors, she was frustrated and had given up much hope of finding it. She finally contacted me and within 4 hours we were in her back yard recreating the events that lead to the lost ring. Bingo! Ring Found! One more happy customer and one more cherished keepsake back with its rightful owner! This doesn’t ever get old. It is truly an honor and very rewarding to be a part of the story.
Gorgeous 18k ring scooped from the lake
It still has the sand on it!
Late in the afternoon I received a call from Tammy. She had recently driven from Fort St. John in northern British Columbia Canada to our beautiful Okanagan to shop for items she could not find at home. She decided to stop along the highway to spend a bit of time by the lake and ventured into the water. While in the water, she unfortunately lost her footing and fell into the lake. When she left the water and returned to her truck she suddenly realized her ring was gone. Tammy was very upset and sought help from several strangers who aided her in looking for her lost ring. They even rented a metal detector but sadly they were not able to locate the ring. A friend told her about The Ring Finders and she called me and asked me to help find her lost ring. I told Tammy that I would meet her within the hour, packed my gear and headed to her location. They showed me where she had entered the water and approximately where she had fallen. At first I thought that the recovery would be very simple as it was not a busy public beach and the ring would be easy to locate. Unfortunately, the water was full of trash that made the search quite difficult. I checked the area where she first fell and was not successful so I started my grid towards the shore where she originally exited the lake. A few minutes had passed and I could sense that Tammy was fearing the worst and may never again see her most prized ring. I got a really nice signal closer to shore and there in the scoop was a gorgeous 18k white gold ring with diamonds and sapphires. Tears of joy came across Tammy when she put the ring back on her finger. She could not believe that I was able to locate her ring in the lake!
I have to say, and in fact I told her so, that I thought it was one of the most beautiful rings I had ever seen.
I can’t believe you found it! I am so happy.
On 7/22/25, I received a text from Kendra just after 6:30 am saying, “Hello. Hope I’m not waking you. What do you charge to search for a missing ring? We’re staying in Cherry Grove. I believe I lost my ring while playing volleyball in the pool.” It was a couple of hours later before I saw her text. I told her how my services work including the St. Jude’s donation I make with any money I get. She responded back that “we’re here until Saturday. I would love help finding it. We have obviously looked a lot lol, but no luck.” I called her and got more details and told her I could be there within the hour; I had a couple of things to do. I also ask for the address, which she sent.
When I got to the rental she was staying, I text her saying “Here.” She text back that she was by the pool. When we met, she advised me that they had checked the pool and surrounding area. Unfortunately, there was a metal fence surrounding the pool area. Luckily, I had brought my gold bug with a small coil and my pin pointer. I searched all along the parameter and came up with nothing but trash. I noticed a couple of bushes inside the fence with rocks as landscape, so I checked all around those. At this point, I was out of options and stopped to talk with Kendra. As we’re talking, Kendra said, “What is that?” I turned around to look and there was Kendra’s beautiful white gold wedding set laying on the concrete in plain view. I reached down and picked it up and handed it to Kendra. There was absolutely no explanation as to how the rings were just laying there. Thinking back on it, in the process of looking along the inside of the fence, I did move a couple of chairs a little to get them out of the way, but nothing major. We’ll never know for sure how Kendra’s rings ended up in plain view. The important thing is they’re back on Kendra’s finger where they belong.
Kendra – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure, however it happened!!
Jim
