LOST DIAMOND RING IN SAINT MARTINVILLE, LA – FOUND

  • from Lafayette (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

Charissa was trying to get her cat out of a tree in her back yard. Shaking a branch did not work so she climbed in the tree and finally was successful. After getting back on the ground, she realized her diamond ring was not on her finger. She looked for it around the tree without luck. We then got the call for help. We had her describe where she had walked in the yard and climbed in the tree before she noticed the ring was gone. We hunted the area for about a half hour before Carrie found it. The odd thing was, we both had searched that area before Carrie located it. The area was where she had held onto a small branch and shook it in an attempt to scare the cat. As hard as it is to imagine, did the ring get stuck on that branch and fall after we had both made a first pass through that area? Either that or we’re really not that good.

Bracelet Lost in Lagoon, Point Pleasant Beach NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Margaret reached out to me about recovering her bangle bracelet, which had slipped off her wrist while she was cleaning the windows on her boat. I told her I’d be able to help but needed a few details, including the water depth and photos of the dock area, the boat, and the exact spot where the bracelet had fallen. Once she sent the information, we set a day and time for the recovery.

Margaret couldn’t make it due to work, but her husband, John, met me at the boat. I searched the area thoroughly for about an hour and a half. There was one promising signal, but it turned out to be part of a crab trap. Since I was leaving for vacation the next day, I assured John I’d be back afterward to continue the search. I suggested we dive for the bracelet, which would make things simpler, and they agreed.

After my return, I met John at the boat with diving gear, ready to continue the search. In about 25 minutes, Margaret’s bracelet was recovered and brought safely out of the water. John couldn’t believe it and mentioned how thrilled Margaret would be to have her bracelet back.

Lost Ring Scotch Plains NJ… Found!!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
💍 Another Successful Recovery by Greenwood Detecting! 🎯
Greenwood Detecting recently had the privilege of helping a gentleman recover his missing wedding ring — a piece with deep personal meaning. The ring went missing after a day spent doing yard work and playing baseball with his grandson ⚾🌱.
Our team carefully scanned the areas where the yard work and baseball activities took place, but initially came up empty. Just as we were wrapping up, the gentleman mentioned one key detail: he had been wearing gloves while working and pointed out the spot where he had taken them off and put them back on several times 🧤.
That final clue made all the difference.
 Lo and behold — the ring was right there! ✨
Moments like these remind us why attention to detail matters and why we do what we do. Another meaningful item reunited with its owner and another happy ending for Greenwood Detecting.

Lost Diamond/Gold Tennis Bracelet Found In Bethany Beach, Delaware

  • from Lewes (Delaware, United States)
Contact:

On 12/29/25, I received a call from Amy regarding her lost diamond/gold tennis bracelet. Amy said that on 10/11/25, she had walked out the front door of her residence at about 1:30 am when her tennis bracelet got caught on the storm door handle. The tennis bracelet broke and came off of her wrist. Amy believed that the bracelet had flung off her wrist in the dark and had landed in the leaf litter on the ground in the front of her deck. Amy asked if I would search the leaf litter in front of her deck with my metal detector for her bracelet. I agreed to meet Amy on 12/30/25 to conduct the search. Upon my arrival at Amys home I searched the leaf litter with my metal detector and I did not find the bracelet. The search was continued as Amy used a rake to pulled leaf litter out from under her deck and I used a pin pointer to conduct a search of it. The bracelet was still nowhere to be found. I then used a flashlight to look through some of the small spaces in between the deck boards. After looking through a second space to the ground under the deck I saw the shimmer of the diamond and gold bracelet. I called to Amy who was in the house to let her know that her cherished bracelet had been found. It appears that when the bracelet came off of Amys wrist it fell straight down to the deck and slid in between a space between two deck boards and then fell to the ground underneath.  The deck was to low to the ground for me to be able to crawl under it so Amy crawled under the deck and retrieved her lost bracelet. The bracelet was located under the deck about 10′ from the front of the deck.

Diamond and Gold Wedding Ring Recovered in Fuquay-Varina

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I received a call from a nice couple in Fuquay-Varina (about 15 miles from the house) asking me to help find the wife’s wedding ring. The husband said it was in the back yard, which should have been an easy recovery. When I got there, he showed me where the ring had gone:  down a briar-covered hill, behind the back yard. Although they were certain about the direction the ring had gone, they didn’t have a guess on how far it might have traveled. Given that, I started at the top of the hill, working my way down, fighting the briars. After maybe an hour of “briar fighting”, I had reached the bottom of the hill, but still no ring. I decided to walk even further out and start to work my way back towards the house, hoping I wouldn’t have to re-search the hill. As soon as I reached what I had chosen as my furthest point, I found the ring easily.

When I climbed back up the hill and returned the ring to the wife, she burst into tears. It’s always good to be able to recover and return a ring, but this one was extra special – another happy ending!

Lake St.Louis Lost Wedding Band

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

I was cleaning the gutters, not wearing gloves (lesson learned) and as I threw the debris, my wedding ring slid off my finger and went with the debris into an area of Ivey. In that environment, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Jeremy Roth of Ringfinders to the rescue. He found the ring along with a few other items overgrown by the ivey. Just in time to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary!

Beautiful gold heirloom ring lost, recovered and returned in Newark, DE!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Zack and Yasmine contacted me via the Ring Finders directory after losing a beautiful gold ring several weeks earlier. They were enjoying the first snowfall of the year on the campus of the University of Delaware in Newark, DE when her ring came up missing. The ring, which was originally her mothers, flew off her finger during a snowball fight. Yasmine distinctly felt the ring come off during a throw and despite searching several times she and Zack could not find it. I met them on campus and they had the good sense to remember the precise area where the snowball fight occurred. I started the search with my Minelab Manticore metal detector(15 inch coil) in the area she was standing when she made the throw and used a grid pattern to cover the 25 square yard area. When i didn’t find on my first scan of the area I expanded my search area and started to cover a wider area. A gold ring on the surface has a very distinct and unique signature on a metal detector and I was hyper focused on just that signal when BOOM!  I got the signal I was hoping for…I looked down…I didn’t even have to bend down…there on the surface was her beautiful gold ring!!! I called Zack and Yasmine over and pointed down…the happiness on their faces made my day!

 

Lost Office Keys in Back Alley, Glennridding Ravine Neighbourhood, Edmonton Alberta.

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

Yesterday afternoon, while driving home from my last search, I received a call from Jonathan. He requested my assistance in locating his lost keys in his back alley. Jonathan informed me that he had become stuck in a snowbank while shoveling his vehicle out. Upon noticing his key missing, he had searched the area unsuccessfully for some time.

Upon my arrival, Jonathan demonstrated the area where he had become stuck and the approximate location where the keys could be. However, he had inadvertently shoveled the snow towards the fence, which is where I subsequently discovered his keys. Jonathan was overjoyed to have his keys returned.

LOST 18K GOLD ENGAGEMENT RING IN SALISBURY, NC…..FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

This young man called me up saying he lost his wife’s 18k gold engagement ring! I’m thinking to myself, “HOW DID YOU LOSE IT?!?” I said ok tell me what happend..

Story goes, It was getting dark, they were on a walk enjoying spending time together. It was cold, they were horsing around and she was afraid of losing her ring so she takes it off and puts it on her thumb to slid it into her husband’s shirt pocket for “SAFE KEEPING”!! A few mins later he did something to cause her to chase him and he stumbles and falls down a slope. He didn’t think anything about it until he realized he lost his watch. Then he checked his shirt pocket, and his heart sank, the ring wasn’t there!!!!

He called me up and I shot over in the dark. He wasn’t 100% sure where he fell so I was scanning about 50 yards of possibilities. Lots if signales and sadly I didn’t find it that night. I advised him to try and find his watch during the day and to try and narrow the search area a little.

The next day he goes back to site and finds his watch. It was just about dark again and rain was coming in on Saturday. So I told him I’ll be there first thing Sunday morning!

I arrive, get my gear and we walk over to where he found his watch. I set my machine to 40-61 range, because the ring looked very thin. I didn’t find it, so I changed my range to VDI 40-72. BOOM! Got a 62 and there it was just under some dirt!!!

I love helping people find lost items! It makes my heart happy and to see the joy, happiness and relief on their face!
