Lost/Found Gold Wedding Band At Cape Henlopen State Park Lewes, Delaware

  • from Lewes (Delaware, United States)
Contact:

On 03/29/26, I received a call from Kyra requesting my help in recovering her lost gold wedding band that had been lost on the beach at Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes, Delaware. The wedding band had belonged to her deceased mother, she had lost the ring in the sand on 03/26/26 while throwing a football. I met Kyra at the beach at which time she showed me the area that she believed that the ring had come off her finger and had fallen in the sand. I began a grid search of the area and after about 20 minutes the lost ring was recovered and returned to Kyra.

Lost gold ring, FOUND! Sea Isle City, NJ By Jeffrey Laag of Ring Finders Cape May!

Received a call from Joes cousin Nicole. Nicole explained that her cousin Joe had just lost his ring in the surf while enjoying the ocean with the family. Joe was body surfing, and at some point, his gold wedding ring had slipped off and disappeared into the ocean. It was just about 5pm when they called and low tide was at 5:30pm. I immediately rushed up and met up with Joe and his family. Joe was fairly confident of where he was at when he noticed the ring was gone but wasnt positive of exactly when it happened. He was between chest deep water and ankle deep surf. I began working a search grid from where he believed was the most probable spot. After recovering many targets in the “wash zone” I began to work my way out to deeper water. Joe and his family had returned to their home for dinner and I assured them that I would continue searching the area to ensure it was thoroughly covered. After about 2hrs of searching I heard the signal I was waiting for. After two scoops in chest deep water out popped Joes ring! Another happy client!

Joes Review:

“Jeff Laag and Ring Finders Cape May are incredible! I lost my wedding ring in the ocean while on vacation last week. Jeff showed up in no time and immediately started his search! I had dropped some change where I thought I lost the ring to help with his search. Jeff found all $9 in change, searching diligently. After two hours I had all but given up and was going to have to tell my wife I lost my ring less than a year into our marriage! Just then, Jeff sent a message that he had concluded his search…and found the ring! Five feet deep in the ocean! If you’ve lost a ring/ valuable metals you need to give this man a call! Thanks Jeff!”

LOST Platinum wedding ring (for 5 months) at Air BnB on Lake Gaston, NC….. FOUND!!

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

So got a text from the wife of a guy that lost his platinum wedding ring at an AirBnB last November, just as the cold weather started coming in, I told her that sadly, I was done with water hunting for the season and that I could do it in late spring/early summer depending on the AirBnB schedule.

So a couple of weeks ago, I texted her and said I could do now that temperatures are rising. She responded and said she’d have to contact the owner of the house and get back with me.

We worked out a date and time for Sunday after 10:15 when the family checks out. I make the drive, review last years pictures and jump in the water to start my search. About an hour went by and I finally see a silvery/Platinum ring in my scoop!

I get out, take some pictures and send it to her, asking if this was “the ring!” She quickly replied back, “OMG, YES!” I said “send me your address and I’ll send you guys the ring!”

I sent this platinum ring to MD and the received it! It’s back where it belongs!!

Lost Wedding Band Found With Metal Detector – Atlantic Beach, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Matthew and his wife were enjoying a warm weekend at the beach. Since his fingers sometimes swell, Matthew took off his wedding band and put it in a pouch. Later, after packing up, he realized the ring was missing. His wife posted a plea for help, and a few responses suggested Crystal Coast Ring Finders. The couple had an appointment that afternoon they couldn’t miss, so we agreed to meet the next day. Although pinpointing the exact spot on the beach was tricky, their great detective work brought me within 10 feet of where the ring was lost. Matthew was starting to doubt it could be found, but after a few false signals, I got a loud hit near the new marked spot. Up from the sand came Matthew’s wedding band, back in his hands where it belonged!

Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Wilmington, DE!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Don’t wait…Call/Text Rich Hageney to find you lost valuables!!! He will deliver!!! (484)433-6990

Fellow Ring Finder, John Favano, referred Jamie to me. Time was of the essence on this one! Jamie was extremely stressed and upset over his lost gold wedding band…a wedding band he had been wearing for 38 years year straight and sadly, one in which he continued to wear in honor of his recently deceased wife. Oh…we were going to find this one…no matter what! Jamie was driving down his quiet community street with his left arm out the window….when he felt his ring slip off…and heard it bounce (once) on the street below. He immediately pulled to the side of road…thinking he would find after a quick search. But when he could not locate it he had a crowd of family and friends join in the search on hands and knees and they searched for hours. I showed up 60 minutes later with several metal detectors to assist in the search. Jamie described all the details involved when losing the ring…we even re-enacted the loss with him driving down the road and dropping a washer to simulate the ring. I firstly scanned the 3 small grassy front yards right where he said the ring slipped off…a gold ring on the surface has a very unique signature on my Minelab Manticare metal detector…and I knew for sure it was not in one of those areas. Time to expand the search…maybe the ring bounced and rolled farther away than anyone thought??? I walked 30 yards farther to another grassy area bordering the street…and boom…I got the gold ring signal I was hoping for. I looked down and saw his large gold ring sitting on top of the grass…I called at Jamie who was sitting looking dejected down the street and said I had another question  for him…he walked up to me and I said my question is “is that your ring”…pointing downward. Man…not sure I ever saw a guy look so relieved…he then become overpowered by emotion. It was very satisfying to be able come through for this kind and caring man.

LOST RING FOUND MONTICELLO, INDIANA

  • from Carmel (Indiana, United States)
Contact:

As summer arrives in Indiana, more people are heading to lakes and beaches, which also means an increase in lost jewelry and wedding rings. Many of the calls I receive begin after someone tries to rent a metal detector and quickly realizes how difficult underwater recoveries can be. My most recent hunt was no exception. I received a call from a couple who lost a ring in Monticello, Indiana, and despite the drive from my home base in Carmel, I was ready to take on the challenge.

Derick and his wife were visiting a friend’s lake house to enjoy a relaxing day on the water when she slipped while boarding the boat and fell into the frigid lake. Although shaken up but otherwise okay, she later realized her wedding ring was missing. After searching the cabin, they concluded the ring must have slipped off during the fall. Hoping to recover it quickly, Derick decided to rent a metal detector and search for the ring himself that same evening. After two exhausting hours searching underwater with goggles, flashlights, and the rented metal detector, they were left discouraged with no sign of the ring.

That’s when Derick found Lost and Found Ring and gave me a call. The next evening, I made the trip to the lake, suited up in a thick wetsuit, and began the search. The area was littered with junk, metal dock posts, and an aluminum jet ski lift that created heavy interference for my detector. After carefully scanning the area and isolating the best signal, I dug my first solid target, and there it was. Derick and his wife were overjoyed to have the ring safely back on her finger. Stories like this are exactly why I do what I do. If you lose a ring, save yourself the frustration and expense of renting a metal detector and call a professional first.

Large Platinum Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in West Chester, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Steve found me in The Ring Finder directory and was seeking help in locating his lost platinum wedding band. He was doing some yard work in the backyard of his home in West Chester, PA when his ring slipped off his finger. Prior to reaching out to me he attempted to find the ring himself with a cheap metal detector. I told him that I quite frequently get calls for help after folks buy or rent a detector. What I tell most people is the machine itself is important (and I have all top of the line machines!) but not as important as the experience of the operator! You have to know what to listen for! Anyway, I met Steve at his home a few days later and he showed me where he was working. I took a few minutes to demonstrate my machine…utilizing my own platinum wedding band to let him hear the signal I would be searching for. He thought maybe it flew off while he was tossing sticks into a pile…but the area where he was doing that wasn’t really an area that would obscure the ring. He would have found it with his eyes. He was also picking up brush, sticks and carrying them across the deep grass of his back yard….I thought that was more likely the area the ring would be found. Sure enough 10 minutes into searching the grass I got the beautiful signal I was searching for! I bent down and searched the deep grass…and there was his beautiful, large platinum band!!! The look of joy and relief on Steve’s face was epic!!!

Diamond and Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Philadelphia, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Will reached out to me after finding me in The Ring Finder directory. He was looking for help in locating his wife’s beautiful gold and diamond wedding band. Apparently they were spending the afternoon at a Philadelphia park when her ring came up missing. Will was quite certain he knew the area of the park where the ring was lost. I told him I would meet him at the park early the next morning. Upon my arrival on Sunday morning (Mother’s Day!) Will showed me the area where he felt the ring became lost. I spent some time manipulating the settings on my Minelab Manticore metal detector and also demonstrated for Will what the signal I would be looking for would sound like…I brought a small gold band with me to do so. I wanted him to feel confident that if I went over his wife’s ring with my machine I would not miss it! Well….10 minutes into the search we got that exact signal! I looked down and there was the ring! Will was standing nearby looking at me in disbelief! Will looked so relieved…and was crazy happy he could return his wife’s ring to her on Mother’s Day!!!

Man’s Wedding Band Launched from the 7th Floor Balcony Towards the Beach. Found and Returned Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

On Monday, May11, 2026, at 9:45 am, I got a call from Cory asking if I could help find his wedding band. I asked him when he lost it, whether in the water or soft sand, and if he was still in the area, He filled in the details for me, and I told him I could probably be there in an hour after I finished a couple of errands. I asked him to send me the address and that I’d text him when I was on my way. He text me the address of the hotel, I finished up my errands, and I text him that I was on my way.

When I arrived at about 10:40 am, I met Cory on the beach behind the hotel. I got a few more details on what happened and about where he lost his ring. Turns out, he lost it last night and there was a little alcohol involved, combined with a lover’s spat, and a heck of a throwing arm. He tossed the ring from the balcony on the 7th floor and said he thought it made it to the beach. He also said that he saw the beach cleaning truck go by about 5 am right over the area. The truck claws they drag in the sand usually don’t pick up rings but can pick up chains. I started an east west grid search from the hotel beach entrance and found nothing but bottle caps. I moved to inside the entrance and checked around the undergrowth and along the sand path. I finally hit a solid 10-11 on the VDI (visual display indicator). Cory said his ring was silver, so I was expecting a number in the low 20s. I was digging everything, so I dug the signal – Bingo!!! I picked the ring up, put it on just over my first knuckle and walked out to where Cory was. I held my finger up and asked, “Is this yours?” A huge smile appeared on his face, he said yes, I handed him his ring, and I got a big bear hug. Nothing beats returning someone’s treasure.

Cory and Nikki – I wish you all the best. Thanks for calling me!

Jim

Lost your Ring/Jewellery,Cell Phone/Keys… Don’t Wait until it’s too late call ASAP- Chris 778-838-3463

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.
