Lost Wedding Ring Caladesi Island, Dunedin, Fl….Found!!!

Dunedin Ring Finder

Lost a ring or other metal valuable at the beach or in a grassy or sandy area? Jewelry slip off of you while working outside, playing with the dog or swimming? Please call me ASAP at (843) 995-4719. I offer a free metal detecting service, reward optional but appreciated upon recovery!

Jessica and her husband Javier were enjoying the day riding jet skis around Honeymoon and Caladesi Islands. They beached on the north end of Caladesi and while Javier was opening a compartment at the rear of his jet ski his beautiful 14k hammered gold wedding band slipped off of his finger into the Gulf of Mexico.

Jessica found me through a Google search and texted me the story including a photo of the ring and a general map of the loss area. Fortunately the ring was lost in only waist deep water an hour or two before low tide so I wanted to plan a search for the same tide time the next day. Initially, Jessica and Javier weren’t sure if they could return the next day but it was important that they be there to narrow down the search area so they were able to work it out.

To get to the loss location, I had to ride twenty minutes on a ferry from Honeymoon to Caladesi, walk about ten minutes from the ferry to the beach, and then walk about 1 1/2 miles to the north end of the island with my equipment. Jessica and Javier had arrived on a jet ski before I arrived but left to pick up an anchor at a nearby marina. They texted me to let me know to look for a green tracker boat and a green jet ski as markers for where the ring was lost if I wanted to begin the search before their return so I began my search in the water. After only about fifteen minutes of searching with my Nox 600 detector, I came across a strong signal with a 21 on the VDI. After several scoops into the mud I was able to bring up Javier’s ring! Jessica and Javier arrived about ten minutes later and I walked up to Javier and asked him if he was ready to begin the search. Before he could answer, I held up his ring and said “is this what I’m looking for?” I thought he was going to fall off the jet ski! Jessica said to him “ I told you we ought to try this before you bought a new one!” After talking for a few minutes and taking a few photos with Javier texting family and friends about the ring find, Jessica and Javier sped happily away.

Jessica and Javier, thank you for trusting me to find and return Javier’s wedding ring and thank you for the generous reward!

Surf City, NC: Lost Wedding Ring Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders

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

Justin was spending time in the ocean along the Surf City beach and told me he noticed something in the sand.  The waves were rough that day and as he tried to grab the item, he felt his wedding ring slide off to be lost in the surf.  I attempted a recovery that same day against the rising tide and stronger waves but it wasn’t safe and my attempts were not productive.  I told Justin, I’d return the next day and try again.

The waves were rough and the wind was strong but not as bad as the previous day.  I completed many passes both in and out of the water with my CTX-3030 with only shreds of aluminum and 1 can pull-tab for my efforts.  I then started to go over the areas I missed in the water using my GPS map and in ankle deep water at low tide I received a faint signal.  After about 4 scoops into the surf, the signal was gone and I still didn’t know what I had removed.  I dumped the pile of sand and shells on the beach and used a pinpointed to find Justin’s ring hiding under the pile.  This beach was recently replenished with sand from a quarry and heavier items sink quickly in the surf.  I think after another high tide, I would not have been able to find his deeply buried ring.

LOST GOLD RING IN CARY, NC………… FOUND!!!!

  • from Fayetteville (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:
Met a guy that came to my house to inspect our Crawlspace and we got to talking about metal detecting after he saw my office.
He said an elderly lady had lost a ring in her yard while doing yard work (2 years prior) and wanted to reach out to her to see if she’d allow me to come and try and find it.
Well today was the day. I got off work and shot straight to her house and met Brian there too.
I walked back to the back yard with them, and it was very overgrown with ivy. She had a small area cleaned out and that was the area she had lost the ring.
I go to get my machine, turn it on and walk back to the area. I swing 4 swings LEFT RIGHT LEFT, RIGHT!!! Wait what was that to my RIGHT? VDI 64 first single BOOM found her ring! It wasn’t that deep at all!
She was beyond overjoyed and crying after I found it!

2-Year Miracle – Men’s Gold Wedding Ring Returned to Owner, Falmouth, MA

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

Sometimes miracles do happen!  I was alerted by my daughter about a lost-ring post on the Fabulous Falmouth Facebook page.  Allie posted a picture of a wedding ring that her husband Michael lost 2 years ago on Woodneck Beach in Falmouth, in hopes that someone would find and return it.  The ring had been lost only a week after they were married.  Allie’s picture showed a fairly unique ring style that seemed familiar, so I looked through rings I’d recovered while metal detecting in the past and sure enough, the style, the place, and the date of loss all matched up with a ring I’d found.

Allie and I made contact and we agreed to meet at the beach in the evening so I could return the ring to Michael.  We met and enjoyed a great conversation and celebration – what a nice couple!  I learned that they had never replaced Michael’s ring, though they’d tried, because it just didn’t feel right.  So it was a real delight to be able to return the ring and see it on Michael’s finger where it belonged.  Michael said he will get the ring re-sized to assure that this saga will not be repeated.  Another success story for the Ring Finders, even though with a 2-year delay!

Allie & Michael. The ring is home after two years.

 

Michael’s wedding ring.

Sea Isle City NJ Lost Wedding Band Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Nikki’s husband lost his wedding band shortly after he arrived at the beach in Sea Isle City, NJ. He started the day by sitting down to eat some lunch. After he was finished his sandwich, he stood up to dust off some crumbs. Unfortunately, his wedding band came off while he was cleaning his hands. What started as a relaxing day at the beach turned into an unexpected search for the lost ring. The family tried looking for the ring with no success, so his daughter searched for other options. She found Ring Finders South Jersey online and gave me a call. I met them and found out some more details. It wasn’t long after I started the search that I heard the tone of the platinum ring and dug it out of the sand. The family was excited to get back to their vacation in Sea Isle!
Read some of the testimonials here on my website where lost rings have been found!

Ring goes up in fireworks, Orlando, Florida….lost in the water and found with metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Here is the story in Nikolai’s own words. “It was the fourth of July and my wife and I were visiting her parents in Orlando, Florida after our honeymoon in Mexico. We were out tubing on Lake Conway and I had put my wedding band and Julianne’s wedding band and engagement ring on my necklace for safe keeping to not lose them in the water. Upon returning to Julianne’s parents lake house I took off my necklace and removed the rings and kept them in my hand while Julianne went up to the house to change. At the same time Julianne’s father was attempting to light the first firework of the night on the beach, which was a fountain with 7 individual small mortar shots. He couldn’t get the wick to light due to some minor wind so naturally I came over to help. I cupped my hands around the lighter to shield it from the wind. I noticed something shiny drop into one of the mortar holes but didn’t think much of it, thinking it was just some left over reflective paper from the firework. The wick lit and the firework went off. At that moment I realized I was only holding two rings (mine and Julianne’s wedding bands) and not 3 rings! Julianne’s engagement ring was missing! I frantically looked around in the sand and everywhere else I stood from the point I had taken the necklace off to when I noticed the ring was gone. Then I remembered the shiny thing that dropped into the firework and was mortified that I might’ve dropped my wife’s engagement ring into the firework and launched it somewhere! We did not find the ring that night. The next day I searched on the internet for ways to find lost rings. The search came up with mostly metal detector sales but also yielded a site called “theringfinders.com” that facilitated a group of individuals all over the United States that help with finding lost items of value. I was able to type in the zip code and a profile appeared of someone local that could help find my wife’s lost engagement ring. His name was Mike McInroe. I was able to call him and set up a time for him to come by that same day. Upon arrival he explained the purpose of the ring finders and the organizations history. He brought along his metal detector and flags and proceeded with his investigation by placing them in the areas I remembered being prior to losing the ring. He then spent the next 3 hours with his metal detector meticulously searching the entire beach area for the ring, including 10 feet into the shallow waters of Lake Conway. He did not find the lost engagement ring: but unfortunately had to halt the search for the day due to bad weather conditions. That evening Mike called me and we continued to brainstorm on what else we could do to help with the search. I told him of my fear of having possibly dropped the ring into the firework and that the ring could be anywhere. We then came up with the idea of recreating the scene. I was able to find the exact same firework used that night and was able to purchase two the next morning. Mike came back and brought along some fake dummy rings which he attached red ribbons to. We then placed the firework in the same spot that it had fired off from and added multiple of the dummy rings into it so that we would be able to follow the possible trajectory of where they landed in order to give us a clue of where Julianne’s ring could have landed. We launched 3 rings and all landed around 4 feet apart from each other about 10 to 15 feet out into the water. We then repeated the same test with the second firework and those 3 rings also landed in the same general area. Mike threw on his wet suit and went out to that area in search of our missing engagement ring. 15 minutes went by and after about the 4th scoop from the lake floor, he looked over and gave us a thumbs up with a big smile. He found our lost ring! We are so thankful that we were able to recover our ring with Mike’s help as it had meant so much to both Julianne and myself. We highly recommend utilizing the service of The Ring Finders, it is an amazing organization and they do great work! Nikolai and Julianne”

Gold/Ruby pendant lost in the sand, Bradley Beach NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Samit called about a beautiful pendant his daughter had lost, just minutes before, when when she noticed her chain had broken. He was very concerned, there were storms all around, the tide was rising, and they were getting ready to head home after a nice day at the beach. I was at a family party, but arranged to meet him in 45 minutes. Once I arrived he showed me the exact area she was in when she noticed her broken chain, and missing pendant. I searched that area pretty quickly with no luck. Samit then showed me the small area in the water where it could have possibly fallen, and I started in the deepest area, working small tight sweeps. About 5 paths up the hill I got a real nice faint signal, and it sounded pretty promising. I dug one DEEP hole hoping to have it in the first scoop. Sure enough, I dumped it out, kicked away some sand, and the bright red ruby was poking out. The entire family was shocked I was able to find it. Luckily it stayed very close to the spot it fell. Another happy ending.

Lost Cross and Locket in the sand, Lavallette NJ, recovered by, Edward Trapper, NJ Ring finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Paul called about a very sentimental cross and pendant that was lost on the beach the night before. He explained that this was the first thing his son had given to his girlfriend, and it would be fantastic if I would be able to find it for them. They lost it the night before after taking it off and placing it on the blanket. I was up there the next morning, made one path along the high tide line where the blanket was laying, and sure enough, I had it in my scoop. I sent some pics to Paul, but he was busy and didn’t see them till later. He was absolutely amazed I was able to find them, and said his son isn’t going to believe it, they figured it was gone into the ocean forever. I made arrangements to meet him a few days later. Paul and his wife are going to figure out a way to totally surprise them, I believe next weekend.
