Lost Wedding Ring Found With a Metal Detector in Portland, TN

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

 

Aaron found my contact information on TheRingFinders directory after his wife lost her wedding ring in their Portland, TN back yard about a week ago. She actually lost both her engagement and wedding rings at the same time as she was playing with their dogs, but they quickly found the larger engagement ring in the grass. The wedding ring disappeared in the thick grass, and played hard to get even when Aaron used a metal detector to look for the ring himself. This was the second search of the day for me, and was hopefully going to be successful like the first search.

After Aaron showed me where his wife was standing when she lost her rings and where they found the engagement ring, he said he’d leave me to do my thing and he went back in the house. Ten minutes into the search I got the signal I was hoping for. The ring was completely concealed in the thick grass, about twelve feet away from where the engagement ring had been found. Both Aaron and his wife were very happy to have the wedding ring back on her finger with the matching engagement ring. Aaron’s wife had all but given up hope that her ring would be found. It was a great feeling to recover the ring for her.

Davis contacted me on 06-23-2026 after he lost his gold wedding band in his back yard. He had placed his ring in the side pocket of an ice chest, and later when he was dumping the ice chest in his back yard, the ring fell from the ice chest pocket. He used a rake to comb through the grass but could not find the ring. We agreed that I would search for the ring on 06-27-2026. Davis asked if he could watch me search and I said he was more than welcome to watch. I warned him that there will be other metal objects in his yard that I will be checking and not to get too excited when he sees me bend down to check a target. After showing me the area where he dumped the ice chest, I powered up the Deus 2 metal detector, started a timer and swung the coil next to the concrete patio and got a strong signal. I was happily surprised that this very first target was in fact Davis’ ring. TEN SECONDS is my new record for a ring recovery, beating my old record of 38 seconds. Sometimes luck is better than skill. Either way Davis was elated. He assured me that he checked the area where I found his ring, and was baffled that he didn’t see it. I spent a few minutes allowing Davis’s young daughter swing the detector over the ring, then use the pinpointer to locate her dad’s ring a second time. It put a smile on her face, so that was an added bonus.

Rose Gold Wedding Ring Lost for Over One Year Found with a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

 

Ryan called me on April 16th and said he had lost his rose gold wedding band the back yard of his Antioch, TN home twelve to eighteen months ago. He was confident it was in a 10’x15’ area of his backyard. He had bought a metal detector and found it was a huge waste of his time. I was in Mississippi on another RingFinder detail, but I assured Ryan that I would help him out when I got back to TN.

I called Ryan on April 17th when I was back in TN and he was ready for me to look for his ring. I first detected the area where Ryan expected his ring to be, but only found a few pennies, a dime and some small foil pieces. I expanded the search area and sixteen minutes into the search I got another signal that I expected to be another penny. About 1/2” to 1” deep was Ryan’s ring. I dusted it off and it looked as good as new. Ryan appreciated my detailed grid search and forensic approach to locating his ring. He admitted that he was a little nervous when he saw that I had to expand the search area. Thank you Ryan for trusting me to find your lost ring.

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Clarksville, TN Found With Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

I received a call from Adam in Clarksville, TN after he lost his gold wedding band in his backyard earlier today. I was packing up my gear for a ring search in Mississippi, but told Adam that I would make the one hour trip to his house before I had to leave for Mississippi. Adam had been searching online for a metal detector to purchase when he saw TheRingFinders directory, prompting him to wisely contact me, since he had no experience using a metal detector. I found Adam’s ring nestled deep in the grass, completely hidden from the naked eye in no time at all. Today was a great day!

Heavy Gold Bracelet Lost on College Campus in Nashville TN Found With a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

On March 22nd I received what I would consider a frantic phone call from a young college student named Zorawar regarding a lost gold bracelet. He explained that he was playing baseball in a grassy courtyard area on his college campus when he lost his solid gold bracelet. He had placed it in his shorts pocket so it wouldn’t fly off his wrist as he was throwing the baseball. At some point, the bracelet fell out of his pocket.

He did what many of my clients have done, went and bought a cheap metal detector and began searching on his own. While he was swinging the metal detector, he had several of his close friends walking all over the grassy area looking for his bracelet. As time passed without the bracelet being found, he did an internet search which lead him to me.

Zorawar sent me a pin with his location and I met with him about thirty minutes after his initial call. I knew time was against us since the college campus is flooded with students and non-students, and realistically there could be someone who would find it and keep it for themselves. I powered up my XP Deus 2 metal detector and began a systematic grid search of the area, even going beyond the boundaries that Zorawar suggested.

After about thirty minutes of searching with my metal detector, it was my eyes that located the gold bracelet.

Understandably, Zorawar was frantic after he lost the bracelet and his mind was going 100 miles per hour. There were very few patches of thick grass that could have concealed the bracelet. All that was needed was a slow, methodical and systematic grid search, and the end result is a very happy and thankful young man. The bracelet has religious significance and Zorawar has worn it every day for the last eight years. Now he gets to keep that routine going. It was truly a great day for both of us.

Yesterday Noel lost his gold wedding band in his yard while building a fence on his property in Springfield, TN. The ring was made from the gold sourced from his wife’s family, so it was very sentimental to him. I gathered my gear and arrived at his property within an hour. Noel briefed me how he thought he lost his ring, however he didn’t feel the ring come off his finger, so he pointed out all areas of the property where he’d been working. After about one hour and fifteen minutes into the search I got the signal that I had been working for. There was ring, hidden deep in the grass and fallen leaves. Noel explained that he had thought about buying a cheap metal detector after he lost the ring, but came to his senses and looked for help from an experienced detectorist. Bluebird clear skies, cool crisp air, meeting nice people and re-uniting them with their lost treasures, it doesn’t get much better than this.

Gold Wedding Band Lost in Murfreesboro, Found with a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)


Alvaro was digging in his front yard to find a leaking pipe when he lost his gold wedding band. He bought a metal detector at a hardware store and tried for hours how to use, but all it did was make a constant chattering noise. His wife, Katie, did an online search and located me on TheRingFinders directory. Due to weather we held off on the search for a few days. On today’s date, 01-11-2026, it was a clear day, although a bit cold and windy. I arrived at 9am as promised and was briefed by Alvaro where he thought the ring could be. Three minutes and fourteen seconds later, I got the signal on my XP Deus 2 metal detector that I was hoping for. It was a pleasure finding Alvaro’s wedding band and meeting the young couple. Finding lost treasures for people that have all but given up hope of ever seeing that treasure again is a great feeling.

Men’s White Gold Wedding Ring with Diamonds Found in Nashville with a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

I got a text from Nicole on Nov. 12th at about 4PM. She said her husband, Roy, was working at a home in Nashville today when he lost his white gold wedding band in the front yard. Nicole explained that the front yard was huge, however the area where Roy thought he lost his ring was confined to a much smaller area. She said Roy had already rented a metal detector and looked for his ring for several hours, along with his brother and the owner of the property. With sunset at 4:45PM tonight Nicole was worried about it being too dark for me to search for the ring. No worries I told her, telling her that I am well equipped for nighttime searches in the dark.

I arrived at the large estate in the Green Hills area of Nashville and met with Roy. After be showed me the areas of the front yard where he had been working, I fired up my metal detector, started a stopwatch and began a grid search. Just before the thirteen minute mark I located Roy’s ring in some wood chips adjacent to the concrete front porch to the residence. This was the first ring recovery for me where I actually saw the ring with my eyes before swinging the metal detector coil over it. It is Fall, so it’s quite possible that the ring had been concealed by fallen leaves and by the time I arrived they were blown away by the cool Fall breeze.

What’s important is that Roy was reunited with his wedding ring. He said he would have lost a lot of sleep if it wasn’t found. Roy thanked me and said now he will be able to pass his ring on to his son one day.

Cartier wedding band returned to new groom! Denver

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)

Brady was married 3 weeks ago and lost his Cartier gold wedding band in a Denver park while running. I searched Friday night with no luck and no access to the soccer field due to games. I came back the next day and found it in the soccer field. Brady was so happy he was running across the field to me fist pumping, reminding me of John Bender in The Breakfast Club. And from that point on I couldn’t get Don’t you forget about me by the Simple Minds out of my head. Thanks Brady.

 

Ring Found at Pensacola Beach

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

A local surf shop in Pensacola, Waterboyz, celebrated its 30 year anniversary since opening its doors. They celebrated by having a special ring make for the founders. Since the founders surfed, one of them lost his ring in the water at a break west of the Pensacola Pier. The ring was solid silver and my detector literally screamed when I passed the coil over it. The ring was found and returned to its happy owner who was amazed it was recovered from the surf. I was more than satisfied to have been of service, and had a long shot recovery success.
