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

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Dan found me in the Ring Finders Directory after losing his wedding band Thanksgiving weekend. He was enjoying the holiday at his home in Wilmington, DE when his ring came up missing. After thoroughly searching the inside of his house he reached out to me Sunday and I made arrangements to meet him that same day. When I got there he shared that he thought the ring most likely flew off his finger while he was tossing around a football with the kids in the side yard of his home. The side yard is about 1/8 of an acre and he told me he was playing football mostly toward right/middle…so as I always do I started my search in the most likely area. A ring on the surface has a very unique signature….so while I was getting quite a few signals I was hyper focused on a very unique signal…It didn’t take long…3-5 minutes into the search…BOOM….there was the signal I was looking for. I looked down…and there was his beautiful gold ring! He had gone back inside so I think he was a little surprised to hear me knocking on his door 3 minutes later!!! He and his wife were quite joyous to have his ring back on his finger!  I was very happy to be able to come through and return his ring to him!!!

Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Warrington, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mike found me in the Ring Finders Directory after losing his wedding band Thanksgiving weekend. He was enjoying his holiday and playing football in the backyard of his in-laws house in Warrington, PA when his ring came up missing. After searching for hours and even purchasing a cheap metal detector at Harbor Freight he could not locate the lost ring. He reached out to me Saturday and I made arrangements to meet him the next day. He shared that the lost ring was made of tungsten so when I arrived at the house I brought along a matching tungsten ring so I could calibrate my metal detector and demonstrate the machine for Mike…I wanted him to have complete confidence that if I went over the ring…I wouldn’t miss it! The backyard was about 1/3 of an acre and he told me was playing football mostly toward right/middle…so as I always do I started my search in the most likely area. A ring on the surface has a very unique signature….so while I was getting quite a few signals I was hyper focused on  a very unique signal…It didn’t take long…5 minutes into the search…BOOM….there was the signal I was looking for. I looked down…and there was his beautiful ring! He had gone inside and was watching me with his family from inside a glass sliding door across patio…I triumphically held up the ring for all to see…and pretty sure I heard joyful screams from him and his family! He came out…lots of high fives…and amazement at the quick successful search! I was very happy to be able to come through and return his ring to him!!!

LOST 14k GOLD ENGAGEMENT RING IN RAEFORD, NC……FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a text saying this young lady had lost her engagement ring while throwing a ball for her dog. As soon as she threw it, she felt it fly off and heard a “DING” as it hit the metal fence. She wasn’t sure if it was in the yard or over the fence.

Her, her fiancé along with a friend spent all day looking for it and tried using a metal detector as they raked pine straw and putting them in bags.

I arrive, get the story and based on the details, I knew it had to be over the fence. I scanned the inside first, just to make sire, but quickly headed for the other side. After about 15-20 mins a get a good ring signal and there it was in the pine straw on the other side of the fence.

Now it is back where it belongs!!

Lost Ear Ring in yard during Party

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

We got a call from a young man in a panic.  He lost his “Diamond” Ear Ring in the front yard of his Aunt’s house at a Halloween Party.  They were taking photos of the really cool Grave Site display in the front yard.  He lifted his girlfriend on to his shoulders and they took some fun photos, then he sat her back down and they walked across the yard and he realized the Diamond Ear Ring was gone.  Their pictures showed he had it on when his girlfriend was on his shoulders,  but in a 2nd picture across the yard the Ear Ring was gone.  He said everyone ate the party was on their hands and knees trying to find it for over an hour.  He and his girlfriend had tried using 3 different metal detectors but with no luck.

So in a last ditch effort before the yard guys came out he turned to the Internet to see if anyone did this kind of searching and immediately the Dallas Ring Finders popped up.  We arrived the next afternoon.  Fortunately he had a matching Ear Ring we were able to get a signal to match too.  After searching the yard with our Garrett AT Pro’s running on their highest sensitivity we had no luck.   So we had to get out our secret weapon our “Garret Super Sniper Coil” that is designed for very tiny objects.  After getting a matching reading on the 2nd Ear Ring we were about to give up searching, I decided to check the prime target area one more time and I got a matching signal.  Using our Garrett Pinpointer I worked it into the very thick grass and I saw the glint and I knew I had it.  And the rest is happy history…..

Wedding Ring Lost in Front Yard-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

James contacted me and told me that his wife had lost her ring in the front yard. It was yellow gold with a solitaire. He said it had been lost for around two months and they had rented a metal detector with no luck. When I got there I asked all of the usual questions that I always do. She said they had been arguing and she threw the ring across the front yard, and where she had been standing. This is always a great help, because it gives me a better idea where to look. I started my grid search in the likely area, and had made two passes across the yard. About one forth of the way back across the yard on the third pass, I got a solid 19 on my Manticore. It was the ring, but after two months it was already completely covered and not visible. The actual search time was less that fifteen minutes.

 

 

 

 

Found Graduation Ring

  • from Baton Rouge (Louisiana, United States)

I was contacted by Khamren Friday afternoon, 26 September 2025 regarding his graduation ring that was lost some two weeks prior. I agreed to meet him at the location of the lost ring the following day at 2:00 PM.  Khamren explained he and his girlfriend were walking along the sidewalk and he was swinging his arm when his ring flew off his hand into a row of ground cover vines. He searched the area, but could not locate the ring. His girlfriend trimmed the area with some clippers and continued the search, but still to no avail.  Khamren also rented a Garrett Ace 400 detector and after searching the area was only able to find a metal spoon and a chime from a small wind chime that had fallen to the ground.

I arrived at the location of the lost ring at the agreed time.  Khamren met me at the site and pointed out the general location where he thought the ring might be. He told me he had to leave for work and if the ring was found, to let him know and to give the  ring to his girlfriend who was inside.

I set up my search areas and methodically searched each area.  I got a hit in my third search area. Based on the readings from my detector, I didn’t think it would be the ring, but because there was a strong signal near the surface, I decided to try.  It took awhile to sort through the roots and thatch and using my soft probe rather than shovel (to avoid damage to the ring) I was able to locate the target.  The target turned out to be a galvanized roofing tack.  The search continued.

I moved to the next search area, and got another strong surface hit.  This time with numbers more to my liking. Using my hands to work my way through the roots, I saw something shining through the roots.  I was able to isolate the object and at 2:45 PM, the ring was recovered.

I took a pic of the ring and sent it Khamren who excitedly texted back with a big “Thank Y0u!”  I then knocked on the door and presented his girlfriend with the ring who returned the gesture with a big smile and another “Thank You”.

It made my day!
