  • from Kerrville (Texas, United States)

Tracy was working in her Bulverde Texas back yard and lost not one but TWO of her rings. She Googled finding a ring and discovered me on of TheRingFinders.com website. Tracy called and we we set up a time to find her rings. The day of the search arrived and I drove the 55 miles to Tracy’s home. Tracy explained what she was doing when she lost the rings and I started searching with my Garrett AT Pro. It didn’t take too long and the gold tone rang from my detector. Ring #1 found. I proceeded to search in another corner of the yard and Bingo! Ring #2 found. Tracy was very excited and very thankful when she placed the rings back on her fingers again.

Gold Necklace Pendant Lost From Broken Chain Found In Pine Knoll Shores, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Jim was walking along a wooden pathway near the Pine Knoll Shores coastline and stopped to stretch his aching back.  While bending over the railing to stretch out his muscles.  As he raised up, his gold necklace snagged part of the railing.  This caused his sentimental gold cross to fall about ten feet into the shrubbery and sand below.  Jim had a couple of guys go in and look for the missing cross unfortunately, they were unsuccessful.  One of the nice gentlemen, reached out to Crystal Coast Ring Finders to see if a metal detector would locate the lost gold.

Because of scheduling conflicts and weather conditions, the search was postponed for a few days.  I met Jim in the morning and he showed me the location.  This was a difficult area to even squeeze into for searching and once I arrived below the railing, I began my search using my metal detector as well as my Garrett hand held pinpointer.  I came across many nails, screws and some fencing wire during the search and eventually worked my way down hill to where the men, who searched previously before me,  had worked some of the sand into a pile.  This was below the obvious area just below the railing.  A few passes with my detector showed more nails and then a very good signal.   After I grabbed a handful of the sand & debris, I spotted a very dirty golden cross in the pile.  I met Jim at my truck and he declined having his picture taken so you see a picture of me after a very dirty, sweaty search.

Wedding/Engagement rings lost in grass, Seaside Park NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Maria spent a beautiful sunny afternoon at the beach, where she had removed both of her rings and placed them in the pocket of her shorts for safekeeping. Later in the day, after leaving the beach, Maria and her family stopped at a flea market in the center of town. While there, they brushed off the remaining sand from the beach, and Maria took off her shorts to shake them out, forgetting about the rings she had placed in the pocket. It wasn’t until she got home that she realized her rings were missing.

Panicked, Maria posted on a local Facebook page, sharing the exact spots where she had been sitting at the beach and where she had parked at the flea market. I always advise people not to post specific locations until they consult with a professional, but by then, several people had recommended me—NJ Ring Finder—and some even volunteered to search with their metal detectors.

The following day, Maria contacted me directly, requesting help to locate her missing rings. After discussing the details, I asked if any of the volunteers had found anything, but she hadn’t heard from anyone. After going over everything she did that day, I determined that the flea market was the most likely place where the rings had fallen out and decided to start my search there. We agreed on a time to meet, as it’s always best to have someone familiar with the exact locations present.

Once at the park, Maria showed me where she had shaken out her shorts, and I started working slowly, covering a 10-foot-wide area. The park was filled with signals—probably around 50—but most were just trash. Then, out of nowhere, my metal detector let out a sweet, low tone that I instantly recognized as a promising signal. Sure enough, buried in the grass, both of Maria’s rings lay side-by-side.

Maria was in disbelief, especially since it had been three days since she lost them. Thankfully, she followed the advice of the Facebook group and reached out to me for help. Another successful recovery for 2024, and a very happy ending for Maria!

Lost White Gold Wedding Ring in Rathdrum Idaho…..Found !!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

If Cheryl knew that cleaning up the yard with her husband Don would cause her to lose her wedding ring, I think she would have stayed inside that day. However, hindsight is 20/20, and Cheryl had the best intentions while removing all the rocks from the yard while her husband mowed. Every little stone and big stone were thrown over the edge of a hill next to their house. Cheryl had no idea that the littlest of all of these stones was on her white gold wedding bands. After discovering the tragedy of her lost ring, the search was on. Metal detectors, flashlights, brother in-laws all came out to help. With the ring’s hiding spot not found, Don looked up metal detectors. I got a call in the afternoon on the 3rd of May. We made plans for me to come out the following day. After arriving to Cheryl’s house, I began recording my YouTube video. A few stops and starts of the tape and a redirection by Cheryl, pointed me in the right direction. I just so happened to walk straight to her ring. The happy ending is captured forever, in the last moments of the video. Cheryl told me off camera that she was very upset about her lost ring. As she was crying by the fire pit last night her husband Don told me he made a promise to her that he would find her ring. The Ring Finders…. helping a husband keep his promise since 2009.

 

 

LOST WEDDING RING IN GREENSBORO, NC POND……FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a text from a lady that said her husband of 51 years had lost his wedding ring at a small lake/pond while fishing with his grandkids.

As he was reaching to get a bobber he slipped and fell into the water. That’s when his ring slid off and he lost his cell phone in the process too. He found the cell but couldn’t find the ring. He also said a buddy of his tried to find it with his metal detector but since they didn’t come up with it, he thought it had to have gone deeper in the water/further out from the bank. Oh and the bank was made up of rip raft rock so that made it a bit more of a challenge.

I started scanning the rocks hoping they missed it and I wouldn’t need to get wet. I even scanned the waters edge before getting wet. I didn’t come up with a signal.

So I decided I had to get wet! I realized that I had forgot my weight belt, so fortunately they had two 10lbs weights that I was able to feed my belt through to hold me down, so i could scan the 3-5 feet water about 3-7 feet out.

After 4 hours of all that, I decided to scan the waters edge again (made like the 4th-5th time I had scanned this area between my two set ups)! I get a hit and I tell the gentleman, “I AM NOT SURE HOW I MISSED THIS SIGNAL LAST 3-5 TIMES!”

I grab my pinpointer, get near the waters edge and come up with a big GOLD RING!!! It had been less than a foot off the bank (where he lost his phone) and about 8 inches of water! UGH! Glad i found it but, well you know! Lol

We walk back to the house, his wife didn’t know I had found it yet. We go into the house and I say, “WELL WE GAVE IT A GOOD SHOT, BUT ALL FOUND WAS THIS GOLD THING!”

The transition from sadness/disappointment to literly tears of joy was priceless!! She comes up to me to take the ring and gave me a big hug, keep in mind im still soaking wet! She said I don’t care! Then she turned to her husband, they hugged and both cried a little more!

This is why I do this and what I live for/love to experience!

Engagement/Wedding rings lost in the bay, Island Beach State Park NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Heather and quite a few friends decided to spend the day on the Barnegat Bay. They had rented pontoon boats, three to be exact, and headed out onto the calm waters of Barnegat Bay. They decided to go down to a local boaters hangout called Tices Shoals. It’s a beautiful area on the eastern side of the bay with a beautiful white sand bottom. They were doing the normal things that you would do when you’re out on the water like throwing the football, jumping off the boat, swimming, floating around in tubes, etc. When Heather looked down on her hand with total shock, her beautiful engagement ring and wedding band were gone. She was positive they were there just a few seconds earlier, so it had to have come off when they were throwing the football. The three pontoon boats were anchored up very close to one another, and they knew exactly where they were when they were throwing the football. They looked for quite a while and had no luck. That’s when they decided to reach out to me to see if I was available. They told me they were in the same location, the boats hadn’t been moved, which was fantastic. I asked them to mark the location with the GPS and send it to me. I could be there in a half hour. I grabbed all my gear and my wetsuit and headed out. They were quite a ways from the beach, roughly a half a mile walk. When I arrived, they showed me where they thought the ring had come off, and that’s where I started my search. As with most party spots, many items are dropped in the water, which makes it hard to do recoveries, due to the amount of targets you will come across. I spent about 45 minutes in the one area and had no luck. I came up alongside of a different boat, and I recognized the person who was a very experienced boater. We talked for a while, and I asked him about the wind direction, what it was doing earlier in the day. He said the wind had come around about 180 degrees, which meant the boat was nowhere near the location where the rings came off. The water is a vast area, and as the breeze changes, the boats can swing all over the place. So I made a few adjustments. We pulled the boat around the other direction. They had said they didn’t let any anchor rope out. So that’s where I started my next search. I had Heather stand there as a marker, and I worked between her and the back of the boat. About 10 minutes later, after starting the search in the proper location, the ring was in my scoop, and Heather was in total disbelief. As a matter of fact, nobody in the party could believe we located the ring. Water hunting is extremely difficult, and gps locations are almost a must for success.

LOST PLATNIUM ENGAGEMENT RING IN CAMDEN, SC…..FOUND!!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a call Wednesday from a gentleman who’s wife had lost her engagement ring while they were out fishing.

They had rented a boat to enjoy spending some quality time fishing together. Just before they were to be putting things away to start heading back, She caought a big catfish and lost her engagement ring mins after the photo was taken. She actually had lost both wedding and engagement but the wedding ring fell in the boat while the engagement feel in about 3-4 feet of water. He tried jumping into the cold water to see if he could save his wife’s ring but sadly with no success. She was understandablly so upset and have been crying.

Thats where I come into the picture. I had to prepare my boat, get my gear ready as I had to plan for a 2.5 hour drive 1-way along with having to cross from the boat ramp side to the other side of the lake to the spot where she lost the ring.

I arrived at 10:00 am, he arrived at about 10:40 and we made the boat ride to the other side. We started where he was pretty confident where she lost it. After a few pulltabs, can pieces, and 2 hours later, I get a good signal that sounds right on top as it should be! After a few scoops I see a platinum diamond ring in the basket!!! By 12:30 ish the ring had been returned. Had to wait for him to get home before he could take a picture of his wife and her happiness!

He told me, “This was so worth it to help my wife stop crying!”

I love helping people find their lost priceless items!!
