Men’s Gold Wedding Band Lost While Swimming in Booneville, MS… FOUND!

I received a call and text on Sunday (June 22nd, 2025) afternoon from Taylor stating he lost his wedding band while swimming in a pond on his family’s property in Booneville, Mississippi.  I was traveling for work training during the week and told Taylor that I would give him a call after I de-planed.  Taylor told me that he felt his wedding band slip off his finger in about 3-4 feet of water when he was about 10-15 yards from the shoreline.  He was helping his kids out of the deeper end.  I told him that I didn’t get back to Huntsville, AL until Friday, but I would be more than happy to conduct a search on the weekend.  We setup a 9am meetup time on Saturday, June 28th.

I met Taylor in Booneville after a beautiful drive 2 hour and 15-minute drive through the Alabama and Mississippi countryside.  He helped me take my water detecting gear down to the pond.  I got in the water and had Taylor direct me to where he thought his ring came off.  I put in my marker pole and went back to the shoreline for my Minelab Equinox 900 with the 15-inch coil and long handled Xtreme scoop.  Taylor went inside the house and I started searching in the water.

On my walk out to the marker pole I found a penny.  Then, when I was about 1-2 feet from the pole on the left side I received a nice sounding tone on my Nox.  It took about 5 tries until I could get the target in my scoop, because the water was up to my chin and I was slightly buoyant from my wetsuit bottoms.  The pond bottom was a soft mud.  Once I confirmed that I had the item in my scoop, I walked over to the shallow end to shake out the mud.  I soon saw a gold ring glimmering back up at me — we had Taylor’s wedding band!  I took out the ring just as Taylor’s mother-in-law, Jenny and Taylor’s wife, Brooke we’re walking outside.  Taylor followed behind.  I held it up for them to see and we all cheered!  I looked up to the sky and said, “thank you, God!”

I walked to the shoreline to hand Taylor his ring and the family dog, Loki was there to greet me and celebrate.  Taylor and his family were so grateful for the help and told me how much it meant to them.  Taylor and Brooke had just gotten married on November 16th.  I told them that helping others and seeing the joyful reactions is the reason why I do this.  I give God all the glory.

Taylor invited me in for some coffee and Jenny offered some delicious homemade breakfast – biscuits and gravy (what I wanted all week lol), eggs, and a porkchop.  I graciously accepted.  Jenny’s husband, Darryl had just arrived home and we all enjoyed a nice conversation.  We then said our good-byes and I was back on the road headed home to Huntsville.  Until the next one… please take care and God bless!

Sara’s engagement ring recovered

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Sara was vacationing at Ft. Walton Beach Florida when she lost her wedding rings. She was able to find the wedding band but not the engagement ring. She had returned home to Illinois when she called asking if I could find her lost ring. She sent me an aerial with an outline of the area she lost it and a photo of her engagement ring. The next morning i searched the area and found her ring within 8 or 10 feet of where she predicted but was 5 or 6 inches deep. The next day Sara and I did a face time call with the folks at my local UPS store and sent her ring home secure, insured and with in person delivery. Sara was very happy her ring is back where it belongs!

Received a call from Chris explaining that his gold ring that had been passed down from his grandfather had fallen off his finger while at the beach with family. Chris said that it was not a very expensive piece but held extreme sentimental value. Chris and his family frantically searched themselves, but to no avail. I made arrangements to meet up with Chris after his dining reservations last night. We met on Guerney St beach at just about dark, and Chris directed me to the general area where he and his family had been sitting. His ring was recovered a few minutes later, much to his relief. Another happy ending! Please like, follow, & share.

Joannes message was sent out to me as I am literally 10 minutes from Cape May, The Wildwoods, Stone Harbor, & Avalon.

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
 
Brandon called me to say just after proposing to his now fiancée Pacie, she had lost the engagement ring. Pacie explained she was using her hands while talking and didn’t realize the ring was missing until shortly afterwards.
I arrived a few minutes after the call and went to work after the search area was explained to me. It only took 1 pass until I received a very solid signal on my detector.

Lost white gold wedding ring, FOUND! Brigantine, New Jersey By Ringfinder Jeffrey Laag

Tyler reached out explaining that he lost his wedding band while enjoying some family time on the beach. Tyler had placed his ring in the compartment of his beach chair while apllying sunscreen. Later in the day another family member began “packing up” to head home from the beach and folded the chair causing the ring to fall into the sand. While walking back from the beach Tyler realized what had happened and the group returned to where they were sitting and began searching for the ring with no success. They had charter boat reservations BUT Tyler and I communicated before he left for his reservation and he was able to send me the coordinates to where they were sitting. I normally do most of my assistance in Cape May County but I was available, and decided to take the 45 minute ride up to Brigantine. Once on the beach I followed my device to the coordinates that Tyler sent and recovered his ring in less than a minute. After recovering the ring I arranged an agreeable spot to leave the ring at Tylers rental and he had it back in his possession upon returning back from their charter. Another happy client!
Tylers review of service can be found below:
“After frantically searching for my lost wedding ring on the beach during vacation, I reached out to Jeff. Within no longer than 45 minutes of home dropping my location of where I lost my wedding ring, he arrived and had found it almost immediately. I can not thank him enough for finding very sentimental piece of jewelry. Can’t thank you enough Jeff! God Bless! 🙏

Lost wedding ring, FOUND! Marmora, NJ By Ringfinder Jeffrey Laag

I was referred to Corey by fellow recovery expert Dave Milstead while he is on the mend from a recent medical procedure. Corey explained that he lost his wedding ring while playing with family members in the lake behind his grandparents vacation home. He estimated that the ring was in approx 5 ft of water. I made plans to meet up with Corey the following day. After arriving at the location I managed to recover Coreys ring in a few minutes, in about 5ft of water. Another happy client!
Coreys review of service:
“My wedding ring fell off in the lake while splashing around with my nephew’s. They felt bad even though it wasn’t their fault and so we searched around for it, but with no luck in the dark water and sandy bottom. Jeff came by a few days later and had the right equipment and experience to find it in under 5 minutes! He’s clearly good at what he does and can be trusted to find what you’ve lost! Give him a call if you find yourself in a similar situation. So happy to have my ring back! Thanks Jeff!”

Engagement Ring Recovered After Being Thrown Off 5th Story Hotel Balcony, Atlantic Beach, FL.

  • from Ponte Vedra Beach (Florida, United States)

A Diamond’s Descent: Recovering a Ring Thrown from a Fifth-Floor Balcony

The call came in, laced with the kind of frantic desperation only a lost engagement ring can inspire. A gentleman on vacation in a beachfront hotel had a big problem. The night before, a heated argument, fueled by alcohol, led to his fiancée doing the unthinkable: tossing her diamond engagement ring from their fifth-floor balcony. They’d scoured the area for hours, both that night and the next morning, but the ring was nowhere to be found. The kicker? The balcony didn’t face the soft sands of the beach, but the unforgiving asphalt of the street below.

I told him I’d be there in minutes. When I arrived at the hotel, the couple, visibly distraught, led me to the fateful balcony. Their access to the room was gone, but I had an idea. I approached the hotel manager, explained the bizarre situation, and, much to my relief, she graciously allowed us a few minutes back in the room. My plan? Have the fiancée toss a few coins off the balcony. It’s a trick that helps me gauge the trajectory and spread of a thrown object, giving me a better search pattern. A few coins later – and, yes, a few unfortunate “dings” on passing cars – I had a better sense of where to focus.

My initial sweep of the planter boxes directly beneath the balcony yielded nothing. They’d already combed the street for hours, they told me, with no success. But I knew the ring had to be there. I extended my search into the street itself, methodically sweeping my detector.

Then, the sweet, unmistakable signal. There, amidst the grit and grime of the road, lay the diamond engagement ring. It was a testament to its journey; the band was broken, likely from being run over by several cars, but the diamond itself, the precious heart of the ring, was still miraculously intact.

Handing it back to him, I could see the immense relief wash over his face. He was, without a doubt, more elated to have that ring back in his possession than she was in that moment. Another day, another lost treasure found, and another couple breathing a sigh of relief, all thanks to a little patience and a lot of metal detecting know-how.

If you’ve lost something precious, especially an engagement ring, your best chance for recovery is to call or text me right away, Adam, your mobile metal detecting expert, immediately at 714-785-5111. The sooner I can get to the location—whether it’s a backyard, a beach, or even the street below a balcony—the higher the likelihood of a successful retrieval. You can also find me on social media at LostRingFlorida. This story is a perfect example of why time is of the essence.
