Marco called me about the wedding ring he lost while cleaning up out back. We talked and it became pretty evident that the ring was there. I just needed to pass my metal detector coil above the ring. It wasn’t a question of “If” but instead a question of “How
long?” Watch the video to see what happens
Bogue Inlet Pier – Emerald Isle, NC
Lauren visited Bogue Inlet Pier on September 7th with her son as was wading in the surf when a larger wave knocked her over. She told me her hands went into the sand and she felt her chocolate diamond ring slide off of her finger. She was very upset but noticed a man out with his detector and went to him for help. Bogue Inlet Pier (BIP) gets a lot of beach traffic and also many detectorist come there to search for “treasures”. After being unable to find her ring, the gentleman suggested she contact Crystal Coast Ring Finders. I made plans to hunt the very next low tide early in the morning and only a few hours after the loss of the ring. The surf was still very strong and I too was unsuccessful. Lauren was very upset when I talked with her and I felt terrible I could not make the recovery that morning. I live near BIP and each time I went there to hunt the beach, I made it a point to search the area of Lauren’s lost ring. Recently, we had some sand movement that allowed the replenished beach sand to move. This created a low spot near the water’s edge. To my surprise, after so many days lost and I’m sure, many other metal detectors hunting the same area, her ring was rescued on the evening of October 7th. It was about 50 yards further West on the beach. I had not met Lauren yet and messaged her to tell her I needed her to fill out my standard search contract. We agreed to meet at her father’s business. After we met and she completed the search contract without knowing I had her lost ring,.. I gave her one of my business cards. When she turned the card over, her lost ring was taped to the back of the card. She burst into tears. I was very happy that something very good happened to Lauren this year as she explained it hadn’t been going well.

Bailee was spending the day with her parents along the White Oak river trying to catch shrimp using a cast net. They were throwing the net from a high wooden walkway. During one toss, Bailee’s gold college class ring slipped off of her finger into the rivers soft muddy bottom. Bailee’s father started an online search and found Crystal Coast Ring Finders. Just after the call, I was on my way. To my surprise, getting close to the ring was a challenge in itself as the bottom was very soft in places and water access was also a bit of a challenge. After pulling up various items of trash, I locked onto a strong 12 signal on the Minelab Equinox 800. The scoop was filled with the black mud but the signal was no longer on the bottom. After a few seconds of sifting out the mud and debris, Bailee’s ring was shining in the bottom of my scoop. I loved the reaction from her as her eyes lit up and she jumped with joy
Matt called me and explained that he was doing some landscaping in his back yard in July. He was laying landscape fabric before putting bark mulch on top and in the process took off his gloves several time that day! Late that evening while in the house he realized his ring was not on his finger, He Googled “how to find lost rings” and found me on the Ringfinders web site.
I agreed to meet up with Matt last night around 7:30. He showed me the area which he was working in and with all the nails and other metal object in the mulch it made for a tricky search. With persistence, I finally found his ring! Another happy Client.
Dayanne was walking her dog in her apartment complex, when a simple body turn to look behind her, made her gold ring fly off her finger and into some thick bushes that line the walkway (as you can see in the photo). She actually saw the spot where the ring went into the bushes, but, even after clipping away some of the leaves and branches to get access it still couldn’t be located. I initially started with a large coil to hopefully get the depth I needed to locate the ring deep inside, but, it became apparent immediately that another method was needed. I instead put on the 6″ coil and rechecked the area where I could get deeper down inside the bush. I got a nice 15 signal on my Equinox, smiled, and pulled out my pin pointer to poke down into the bowels of this sticker bush. Carefully reaching inside and locating the signal with the pin pointer, I zeroed in on the target. Even so, it was still invisible and took 3 tries to grab it in the dead leaves at the base of the bush. A happy Dayanne put the ring back on her finger. A pleasure to meet you, and thank you for the reward.
I received a call out from a gentleman that lost his ring while planting the garden in the spring. Four months later we begin a search. From what he told me on the phone, I suggested we start with his gut feeling. It was a good call. We had 5000 sq. feet to search and we found it in the first one we searched. Watch the video if you enjoy happy endings.
John found out about his friend’s lost ear ring being found by Ring-Finder Jim Wren in the North Myrtle Beach sand. It was that moment John discovered the great service The Ring Finders provide.
John had lost his gold wedding band two month prior. John was spending the day at a family member’s house playing with the kids all over the yard. This is when the ring fell off without John realizing it was gone. This ring had very special meaning as it belonged to his Grandfather. John messaged Crystal Coast Ring Finders and a day was planned to search the whole yard. Communication was very important to try to pinpoint the location of activity but the yard was full of various debris making this search difficult. Persistence paid off as the ring was found near a buried metallic item in the backyard. The sun was hot and the bugs were hungry. I was very happy the search was a success.
Lajuan texted Crystal Coast Ring Finders about his ring he recently lost while cutting grass. He believed it would be near the road ditch where his mower had gotten stuck that day. After an hour of searching he front yard scrupulously, a short search in the backyard near the back privacy fence produced his wonderful ring. The day was heating up quickly, so it was a perfect time to ring his doorbell and return his ring that had been lost for days.
Rick, Jim, & Myself we’re out searching for recent drops today in our local ponds. Rick’s wife Jayne called my phone and left an Urgent message for us to return a call that she had just received, saying that we were recommended, by a local Metal-Detecting shop on Cape Cod, to help find a Wedding Band that was lost about an hour earlier on a beach. I called back immediately and Jessica picked up the phone, she proceeded saying that they were all down on the beach earlier, and that a friend of hers named Louis, had dropped his wedding band in the dry sand, they were wondering if we could help find it. I said yes but no guarantees. They were not to familiar with the area, and wasn’t sure what parking lot they were in. I told them to meet us there in an hour. We all jumped in the truck and headed down 25 miles away an got there earlier than expected, we met Lewis and Anton after about a 15 wait. Glad we waited for them to show up, as we were walking down the path and got onto the beach, Louis had mentioned that he put a stick down into the sand, where he thought he had dropped it. I asked him to please stand exactly where he thought it fell and not to move, I then proceeded to turn on my machine and took less than five seconds to receive my first signal, that just happened to be his beautiful 14 karat Rose Gold Wedding Band. We were all very happy to see it back on his finger that quickly. That’s where it belongs. Louis actually said incredible, just incredible we were all looking for over an hour on our hands snd knees to no avail. We were glad that Jessica called the Ring Finders.
14k Rose Gold Band
Carrie and Sid got a call from Morgan on Labor Day. Her husband of less than one year had lost his wedding band while working in their yard. He had many tasks so the ring could be in any of the four flower beds, garden, yard around the driveway, two potted plants or the trash can where plants and shrimp shells had been tossed. We each headed in different directions and began the search. The metal flower bed borders were the biggest problem. Lots of hunting was by pin pointer. After an hour, Carrie got a good signal on the grass a foot from a flower bed. Found! Needless to say, Morgan was excited and their marriage is now safe.
Thank you for the very generous reward.
