I received a call from Chris. Chris explained that he had just gotten married, here in Cape May, three days ago and he lost his ring in the sand. Chris said that he had taken his ring off to apply sunscreen placing it on his beach chair, the chair tipped and the ring slipped off the chair and disappeared into the sand. After the newly wed couple searched on their own they came up empty handed, thats when they were recommended to Ring Finders Cape May. I met the couple on the beach in front of Congress Hall about 5 minutes after they called. After a brief search I recovered Chris’s ring in about 2 minutes! Now the happy couple can get back to celebrating their newly formed union as one! Another happy “newly wed” couple!

Lost family heirloom engagement ring recovered in Wildwood Crest, New Jersey

A beautiful beach day on Pittsburgh Ave in Wildwood Crest almost turned heartbreaking. I received a call from Alexis. Alexis explained that she had been on the beach earlier in the day with her family. While at the beach, she had removed all her rings and placed them in the velcro pouch on the side of her beach chair. After packing up and walking back home she checked the pouch and found that her multi generational heirloom engagement ring was gone, however, her other 3 rings were still in the pouch. Alexis immediately returned to the beach and began frantically searching the sand for her ring. Her activity drew the attention of other beach goers whom also joined the search. A few folks recommended to Alexis to call Ring Finders Cape May as “that guy finds everything”! After speaking with Alexis, I met up with her about 10 minutes later on the beach in Wildwood Crest. Alexis directed me to the area she had been set up and I began carefully searching the area. After about 45 minutes I had not received the tone I was searching for so I greatly expanded the search area as we both believed it may have fallen out when she began walking home from the beach. About another 30-45 minutes later I got the signal I had been searching for about 15-20 yards from the original search area. Sure enough, Alexis ring emerged from the sand in my scoop. Tears of joy began flowing instantly. Alexis explained that this ring had been passed down thru three generations of her family and was truly irreplaceable! Another happy couple, another beach day saved! If you find yourself in a similar situation, don’t give up hope!

Tungsten Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Bucks County, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mark was enjoying a beautiful summer afternoon in his backyard in Perkasie, PA (Bucks County) when he discovered his large, beautiful wedding band missing from his finger. He was sure it must have come off when he was shaking out and hanging some wet towels on a clothesline. He searched for hours with his eyes and an old metal detector in hopes of finding it before he reached out to a professional. After finding me in the Ring Finder Directory we agreed to meet in his backyard Monday afternoon. After a quick tour and detailed description of how he thought he lost his ring  I went to work. After 10 minutes of scanning the area I received the signal on my metal detector I was looking for…looked down…and there it was!!! I was very happy to be able to return Mark’s ring to him!!!

Mom’s Gold Ring Found in Garner!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a text from Asia about her lost ring. She’d been at an outdoor event with friends the day before and had lost a ring that her late mother had given her. We made arrangements to get together that afternoon to search. We met at the apartment complex (where the get-together had been) and she showed me where she had been. They had played kickball, had a cookout, and even had a water balloon fight, so the possibilities were large. Also, the open area where she had been was accessible to anyone, so there was a possibility that the ring had been picked up by someone. Lastly, she explained that she had taken off all of her rings and put them on a chain around her neck, but the design of this particular ring had an open spot that was probably how it fell off the chain. I searched for about an hour the first day and came back the next day to cover the area again. After about 45 min of searching, I was able to locate the ring and get it back to her. Because of the connection to her mom, she was ecstatic to get it back. Another happy ending!

Gold Wedding Ring Recovered in Holly Springs

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a text from a gentleman in Holly Springs who had been gardening and lost his wedding ring in the process. We made plans to get together the next morning and when I arrived, he showed me where he’d been putting in his new plants. Where we live, the native soil is clay-y and rocky. For that reason, he dug out a hole for the new plant, but only good (store-bought) soil went into the hole with the plant. The old, crummy soil was carried to a dirt pile in the back yard. I started in the front yard where he had been planting and absolutely scoured the area – no ring. I scanned the path from the front yard to the dirt pile, thinking it might have come off on the trip – no ring. I then started scanning the dirt pile and found the ring about 2″ down under some rocks. His 40th anniversary is right around the corner, so this was a particularly special recovery. Another happy ending!

Received a call from Patrick’s sister. She explained that her brother believed he “might” have lost his ring at Poverty Beach here in Cape May at some point today. Patrick was currently returning to his home to check around the house but he believed it may have slipped of at some point while he and his family were enjoying the day on the beach. Patrick wanted to thoroughly check at home and preferred to meet in the morning if his search at home didn’t produce any results. Later in the evening Patrick confirmed that he couldn’t locate the ring at home. Patrick did mark his location with a gps pin and forwarded it to me. We agreed to meet at the beach ahead of the crowds at 7:30am the next morning. I arrived around 7am and decided to start a little early. I proceed to the coordinates Patrick provided and began carefully searching the area. After a brief search, I swung my coil over his ring and managed to recover Patrick’s ring in about 10 minutes! I called Patrick, whom was just leaving his home to come meet me, and told him the good news, we met at our local firehouse offshore and he was reunited with his ring. Another happy client!

Gold Ring Recovered from Geneva Lake in Fontana, WI

Wedding Ring Recovered from Geneva Lake in Fontana, WI

Raul and his family were enjoying a day at the beach in Fontana, WI when his 14K gold wedding band was lost.  His family spent time in the grass, on the sand, and in the water.  Fontana beach is quite large, so narrowing down the search area was key.

On my way out I texted two fellow detectorists who may have been detecting this beach letting them know I was on a search and “Did they find any gold rings at Fontana’s beach in the last two days?”  “No,” was the reply.  When I arrived, another detectorist was in the water.  I waded out to Tony and asked the same question.  “No, only a quarter so far.”

       Raul patiently answered all of my questions as we worked to pinpoint the most likely spot he would have lost it.  I marked off the edges of my search area in the sand and waded into the shallow water to make my first pass.  Dragging my search coil slowly over the sand, overlapping, so as not to miss anything, I had a strong repeating signal around the third or fourth pass.  I knelt down in the water and waved away the topmost layer of sand in the spot where my detector indicated a target.  Half of the ring appeared like a golden smile.  I picked it up and held it up to Raul who was standing on the shoreline.  

It was the first and only target I dug that morning.  Raul carefully thought through all of my questions and that led to our success in finding the ring.

After a few photos, it was back on his hand and his smile said it all.

        Later, Raul made a kind post on the Lake Geneva Lake Life Facebook group.  He writes: “A huge thank you to Seth for helping recover something that means so much to me and my family.  We are incredibly grateful!”           

Wedding Ring Recovery from Snow in East Troy, WI

Wedding Band in the Snow

Caleb called me around 8:00 pm.  Could I meet him in a salvage lot in East Troy, WI?  He had lost his wedding band in the snow.  

By December 1st, Wisconsin was covered in a thick blanket of snow.  The cars in the lot were white domes of snow caged in by a chain-link fence.  The ground, most likely crushed gravel was topped with hard-packed tire lines running throughout.  

         I thought about all the metal that would be competing with Caleb’s small gold ring, and I hoped I would be able to keep the search area relatively small.  It was late and cold, and the roads were not getting any better the longer the night went on.

I assessed the area at 9:12 pm.  I asked Caleb lots of questions in order to decide the best place to start searching.  Thankfully, about ten minutes later I was handing the ring back to Caleb, a grateful smile stretched across his face.    

Caleb’s final text read:

“Thank you so much, Seth!  You have no idea how much it means to me that you were able to find my ring!”
