Fun Family Day at the Beach also Has Lost Wedding Band. Found the Next Morning

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Anthony and his family spent a fun-filled day on Emerald Isle beach, where he tucked his gold wedding band into the pocket of a beach chair. After enjoying the sun and sand, they packed up their belongings and returned to their lodging. Later, when they discovered the ring was missing, Anthony reached out to Crystal Coast Ring Finders. The next morning, I set out to search for it. With his clear description of where the kids had played and the chairs had been set up, I powered on my gear and began scanning the area. Luckily, I headed straight to the spot where the ring was buried just beneath the sandy surface.

14K RING RIVER RECOVERY – Cacapon River, WV.

  • from Leesburg (Virginia, United States)
The Cacapon River is one of West Virginia’s highest quality rivers. Protected by woodlands and peaceful fields, its waters are not polluted by industry, development or mining.
I received a call from a customer who was kayaking with his son on the Cacapon River. While going through an area with some mild rapids, the kayak flipped over, and everything went overboard. Obviously focusing on his son to ensure everyone was safe, he then realized his ring had come off his finger. He searched in the current for several hours but was unable to locate the ring.
We agreed on a date/time and after an hour-and-a-half excursion, I arrived deep back in the woods of WV. At first I was slightly concerned about the rapids, but after a little bit of foot dancing in the river to ensure I didn’t get washed away, I was able to get into the area I wanted to search. I had to hold the detector with both hands due to the current but was able to get a high 80s on my XP Deus II. I set the detector on a boulder to my left, put my snorkel mask on, then dunked my face into the cold water rapids. Like a gleaming beacon, I saw the  14 karat yellow gold ring, staring up at me through the water, in between two large rocks.
Happy customer. 😊 Happy Hunting

Ring lost in Serra Mesa found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Shelly found my number asking for help finding her lost ring. She was in the back yard on a deck overlooking a canyon when her ring took a high dive over the fence and into the abyss below.  She and her husband had even bought a detector and pin pointer to search with on their own, but, without any luck. This was no ordinary back yard. It was a steep jungle of jade plant, scrub trees, and native brush, along with the typical debris a canyon seems to accumulate……aluminum cans, foil, metal junk of all sorts, and some broken up concrete. Oh, and in the middle of all this is a metal chain link fence separating their yard with a SDG&E access road area. Not going to be an easy one….and it wasn’t. First hot and humid day, with hope and a prayer, but, with limited areas to swing a search coil, it wasn’t found. Serious ground clearing was in order, and that’s what they did the second day. Shelly and her husband bought a chainsaw and some loppers to try and clear the search area. Third day, I came back to see if the ring could now be found. A quick sweep of the area again and still nothing. Ok, time to get serious. All three of us now decided to completely clear everything from in and around the fence and cut down a tree that was in supposedly ground zero. Hit the fence line with detector and pin pointer now that I had some access. Still nothing. Well actually something….We had had Shelly toss some coins where she thought the ring went, and We found all of those. Before expanding the search area even more, we cleaned all the debris we had created and moved it all downhill so I could make one last sweep over the dirt access road along the fence that we both had swept 2-3 times already. Two thirds of the way through, I got THE signal! Just under the dirt was this gorgeous ring. Not sure if it had been hung up in the tree, the brush, the jade plants next to the fence or what, but, we now had a happy couple, and a sweaty, tired detectorist eager to get out of that canyon and into some A/C with a cold drink. A pleasure to meet you both, your folks, your puppy, and thank you for the reward.

 

Lost Wedding Ring Ballwin, Missouri

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

I was cleaning landscaping rock in my backyard, so digging it up, sifting out loose dirt, then washing it, and then placing it and spreading it. I took off my gloves to wash the rock. The next day, I noticed my ring was missing, and immediately knew it had to be somewhere in the rock. I tried to sift through the rock. One of my kids took a shot at it too. No luck. My wife had the ring inscribed so I really wanted to find it. While searching for ways to find it, I stumbled upon Ringfinders.com. I reached out to Jeremy and he responded quickly. We scheduled a time for him to come and hunt for the ring. It took him<5 minutes! Thanks a ton Jeremy!

Harwich, MA Lost Found and Returned Wedding Band Within An hour

Tommy had lost his ring and several helpful friends were sifting thru the sand except for one, the real heroine here, Jen, was searching for a Ring Finder. When she found my information on TheRingFinders.com, she knew her search was done. She then made the call.

When I received the call I was ready to go and Tommy was heading to his mother’s home to check there for the “lost” ring. In a little over a half an hour I was getting my gear together at the beach and Tommy had just returned and was pulling in to park without his ring. I guessed it was up to me to go and find the wedding band that had left Tommy’s had while shaking off ice water from his cooler.

On the beach two circles had been drawn in the sand and a few pull tabs had been scattered to confuse me. Neither circle had defined the rings location. I never heard a beep from a pull tab as on the second swing I knew I had located the ring. I stopped detecting and took my phone out of my pocket so I could capture a picture of Tommy retrieving his ring from the scoop. My success surprised everyone except for one as I had found her son’s ring several years ago.

Tommy’s ring has now been lost and returned FIVE times. Once it was lost for over a year then found by Tommy’s mother while she was cleaning under her dryer with a coat hanger. Another time it was left in a restaurant’s men’s room. Thru all the losses Tommy’s wife, Amanda, has stayed with him and now is just wondering where and when the next time will be and if I will be able to help. Of course I would!

Lost Black Titanium Wedding Ring at the Little Manitou Lake, Watrous, Saskatchewan found by Ben Griswold (The Ring Finders)

Lost your ring/cell phone/keys Don’t wait until it’s too late… Call ASAP- 24/7 service Ben – 306-630-3016

I was contact by Marrissa on Friday who indicated she was looking for someone to help her find a lost wedding ring at the Little Manitou Lake. Marrissa reported that they were swimming in the lake when her husband Eric felt his titanium wedding ring slip from his fingers. this was on Wednesday evening the lake was very choppy at the time of the loss. They were also traveling from Ontario to Alberta and had left the area. She had sent me a hand drawing picture as reference as to the location of the loss. This did help in the recovery.

So, I head to the lake with the map for reference. Little Manitou Lake AKA (Canada’s Dead Sea) is about half as salty as the Dead Sea and Eight times saltier than the ocean. This creates a unique experience to detecting in.  As Most metal detector wont work in the salt water. You do need a specialized detector for this. I was there for 3 hours in water detecting till it got dark with no ring found.

The vey next morning we headed back to the lake this being a Saturday the beach and swimming area was very busy. I geared up and 20 minutes in the water I had found the ring.

I sent them a picture and they confirmed the ring was indeed the lost Black Titanium Ring. We made armaments to meet in Moose Jaw the next day as they were drive through on their way home to Ontario.

We truly have the best job in the world, and we absolutely love what we do.

1959 class ring lost and returned in Federal Heights

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)


Another sentimental story for the books. Matthew was raised by his grandfather. He passed away 3 WEEKS ago and he left Matthew his beloved 1959 10k gold class ring. He was cleaning out his grandfather’s shed when a spider jumped on his hand. He jumped out flinging his hands and heard the ring ricochet off the neighbors house. He and the neighbor searched for days even renting a metal detector. He came upon Ringfinders and found Jeff. I decided to detect on the way to the spot of Spider incident. I had a feeling it flung opposite of what he thought and in the tall grassy area I found it. I held it up and interrupted Jeff and Matthew’s conversation and said “hey guys”.
Matthew was teary eyed and so appreciative to have such a precious item from his grandfather back on his hand.

Timing is Everything. Lost Wedding Ring Recovered at Old Silver Beach, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from West Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)

5 September 2026.

Andy and his wife were on the interstate headed back to Pennsylvania when he called me.  Their vacation on Cape Cod had ended, and tomorrow they would be celebrating their 29th wedding anniversary at home.  Sadly, Andy’s wedding ring would not be part of the celebration.  It had been left behind somewhere in the sand of Old Silver Beach about 24 hours ago.

As Andy described the situation, he had placed his ring in a small side pocket of his chair at the beach,  He’d forgotten about it when they packed up and left in mid-afternoon, only later to discover that the ring was gone.  So the ring most likely was left in the dry sand where they’d been sitting, or possibly in sand along the route they’d taken back to the parking lot.  He described the ring as white and yellow gold with 4 small pavé diamonds.

I asked Andy to text me a map indicating his best guess of where they’d been sitting and told him I’d leave for the beach right away.  Old Silver Beach is popular with detectorists and I was concerned that his ring was a ‘sitting duck’ that might already have been found or could soon be found, so time was of the essence.

When I arrived at the beach I grabbed my gear and headed for the spot marked on Andy’s map.  On the way I passed a man and his son who had a detector.  I stopped and told him that if they found a white and yellow gold ring with 4 small pavé diamonds, I had the name and contact information for the man who lost it.  Dan, the father, said ‘we found it’!  I outlined the situation to the point that Dan seemed satisfied that I was not ‘scamming’ him (unfortunately you can’t be too careful these days!).  He provided his phone number which I sent on with a message to Andy so that they could talk directly with one another.

While Dan and Andy were conversing and arranging a return, I learned from Dan’s wife that their daughter had found the ring using their son Ben’s detector, so there was some sibling rivalry as to who deserved the credit.  In any case, she had some cute pictures that had been taken of a gleeful Ben with the ring.

Dan and his family left shortly after his conversation with Andy ended, so the serendipitous timing of my arriving at the beach and meeting Dan was a real stroke of luck.  There now of course was disappointment, especially on the part of Ben, but there was also an honorable ending with the ring in the process of being returned to its rightful owner.

And a 29th wedding anniversary will be celebrated with joy and not with a modicum of regret!

UPDATE, 9/11: Andy received his ring a week to the day from when it was lost.  A big thank you to Dan and his son Ben!

Andy’s wedding ring.

Andy, very happy to have his ring back!

Dan’s son Ben, thrilled by a ring find with his new detector!

Lost gold ring, FOUND! Cape May, NJ By Jeffrey Laag

I received a call from Phil yesterday just ahead of an incoming storm. Phil explained that he was exiting the ocean and shook off his hands when his wedding ring slipped off and was immediately swallowed up by a passing wave. Phil and his wife searched the shallow with no success. Given the time of day, current tide schedule and approaching storm I decided it would be best to attempt recovery during this morning low tide. Phil did an excellent job of marking the area with a pin and taking reference photos. This morning I arrived on the beach at Phils pinned location and began searching. After about an hours time I swung my coil over Phils ring and recovered it from approx 14” down in the sand! Phil and his family finished breakfast and met me on Decatur St beach, here in Cape May and retrieved his ring. Another successful recovery, another saved vacation!

Phils Review:

“Jeff is the best! I lost my gold wedding ring on the southern tip of Cape May beach right as the tide was coming in. We called Jeff immediately, and he was able to head out to the exact spot at the next low tide—roughly 19 hours later. About an hour into searching, he found it! We were sure it was gone forever, especially after a pretty bad storm rolled through that night. Jeff came to the rescue. He is highly professional, and I cannot recommend him enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

53 yr. old ring lost in a Brainerd Minnesota lake Recovered using a metal detector

  • from Coon Rapids (Minnesota, United States)

This gracious gentleman spent the day tending to his lakeside shoreline, raking weeds and debris. Late that evening, he realized his 53-year-old wedding ring was missing.

He thought back over his day, and the only thing he could recall was removing a protective glove while standing in the water. He suspected the ring may have slipped off his finger at that moment.

He contacted me, and we agreed on a date to search the area. Using my Manticore metal detector, I thoroughly searched the shoreline and water.

Several items were recovered along the way, including a shotgun shell, two cans, a can top, and several soft-drink pull tabs. Once the area was cleaned up, the search continued.

Finally, the signal we were hoping for appeared—the wedding ring!

The ring was found in approximately three feet of water and about ten inches down in the sand.

What makes this recovery even more special is that this ring has been on his finger for 53 years! It is only removed twice a year when he takes it to the jeweler for polishing. After all those years, it certainly wasn’t ready to be lost!

I am so glad your ring was found and returned to you. Thank you for choosing me to be your ring finder. It was truly an honor to help bring such a meaningful piece of your history back home! ?
