Contact:

Received a call from Elgin, Illinois to look for a diamond ring in the backyard.They were no sure thats where it was lost, but it was worth a try. A newly engaged person was visiting to attend a graduation party. Among other things, a balloon throwing battle ensued. The guests had scoured the backyard to no avail.I laid out a gridline to insure that I covered the area. It worked! The guest was so distraught, she went out so she would not hear from me that I couldn’t find it. Guess what….I found it!

Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery Expert in Ventura & Santa Barbara Counties
This afternoon, Dave texted me in a panic: he’d lost his daughter’s gold pendant and chain at Silverstrand Beach in Ventura County. Tasked with safekeeping it during her boogie boarding, he’d tucked it into his shorts pocket—only to find a hole and the pendant gone when he got home. The loss spanned 100 yards of dry sand to the high tide mark. As Dave MacDonald, your expert at davetheringfinder.com, I’m the go-to for lost ring recovery and how to find a lost ring in the sand across Santa Barbara County and Ventura County.
At Silverstrand Beach, shifting sands and crowds made it urgent. I’ve tackled lost ring recovery in cities like Oxnard, Ventura, Santa Barbara, and Carpinteria, so I dove in. Initial scans in dry sand turned up nothing, but my gut said wet sand held the key—a trick I’ve used from Goleta to Port Hueneme. On my final pass, my metal detector chimed at the grid’s edge. There it was: the pendant and chain, intact.
Pretending to shift focus, I surprised Dave with the find—cue cheers from the crowd! His call to davetheringfinder.com proves professional help beats DIY for how to find a lost ring in the sand.

Expert Recovery: Lost Wedding Ring Found on Hillside in Canyon Country Santa Clarita

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
How to Find a Lost Ring: Dave MacDonald’s Recovery in Santa Clarita
The other day, Steven texted me about a crisis: his wife’s wedding ring was lost on their backyard hillside in Santa Clarita. As Dave MacDonald, the expert behind davetheringfinder.com, I scheduled a lost ring recovery search for today, March 2, 2025. Arriving in Valencia, I saw the challenge: a steep, brush-covered hill where the ring could be anywhere—perfect for showing how to find a lost ring in tough spots across Newhall, Canyon Country, and beyond.
The dense foliage in Saugus-like terrain demanded creativity. I crafted an extension rod for my pinpointer to probe the bushes, starting low where Steven thought the ring fell. Sweeping with my Deus II metal detector, I got nothing—until intuition nudged me higher. I’ve learned this trick works from Agua Dulce to Palmdale. After a quick prayer for guidance, I hit the hill’s top. On my second pass, a tone rang out. Peering through the brush, I spotted the ring and called Steven over. With a grateful prayer, we retrieved it—a win for lost ring recovery!

Lost Medallion in Lake swimming

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

Having a awesome day playing with Kids in the lake, then Our client decided to swim some laps from pier to pier.  Just as he was getting out of the lake he realized his Gold Chain and Gold Maedallion which he always wore was gone.  This was a generational family gift passed down from great grandfather to grandfather to father to him.  He screamed and everyone got in the water dragging feet in the 4-6ft deep waters.  They spent hours looking for it until darkness set in.  In desperation he got on the internet thinking maybe he could rent a Underwater Metal Detector, in the process of the search he found us , Don & Ellen Wilson with Dallas Ring Finders.  Professional Metal Detectorists who also did underwater detecting.  Contacting me a 9:45pm on Mothers Day, we answered the call.  Set up a time to drive 3 hours to Jewett, Tx to search the lake 2 days later.  After nearly 2 hours of searching the area he thought it would be in we widen out our search grid and as I was bringing up my water scoop with a target I saw something gold in color flutter away back down into the lake.  I knew I had it, instantly I detected again and found the object, carefully scooping the item, I slowly raised the scoop to the Surface and there it was shinning like only gold can even in the middle of the muck and mud. After lots of yelling and whoops of happiness we got some great video and photos of another happy client.  Another Great Find for the Dallas Ring Finders.

Went out for another ring recovery today after work. I didn’t find this ladies deceased mom’s gold ring, (they weren’t 100% sure it was lost in the yard) lost for about 15 years. The yard wasn’t that big. I dug EVERYTHING from VDI 40-90.

I got a sold 90 and decided to dig it. It sounded too good to pass up. I saw shinny and round! It was a thick silver ring! I immediately took it up to her and showed her. She thinks it might be her daughters ring.

This is #11 ring recovery this year!

“DIG IT ALL, SAVE SOME RINGS & BURY THE DRAMA”

 

DIAMOND WEDDING RING LOST IN HAMMOND, LA-FOUND

  • from Lafayette (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

We were packed and ready to head to one ring hunt when the client called and said it had been raining. Since the ring had been lost over a year ago and it was in a grassy field, we decided to delay the hunt. After unloading the equipment, we received a call from Nicole. She had lost her ring in the concrete parking lot in front of her apartment and yes it had rained but was clear now. Carrie and I reloaded the equipment (knowing we probably would not be able to use them) and left for Hammond, a 2 hour drive. Arriving we found a distraught Nicole walking over the parking lot, searching as she did the previous day. Having not felt the ring fall from her hand, the whole parking lot was the search area. With detectors useless we started a visual search. Two hours later Carrie let out a victory scream. Rejoining Nicole and her ring was a great end for our efforts.

Dave MacDonald Excels in Lost Ring Recovery at Hendry’s Beach, Santa Barbara
Last night, Alex called me en route to church, distraught over a lost ring. He’d been at Hendry’s Beach in Santa Barbara with his family, enjoying the calm before a swim in the Pacific. As he dipped his hands in, his ring—a sentimental replica of his father’s wedding band—slipped off and vanished into the ocean floor. Knowing the odds without pro gear, Alex turned to Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, the expert for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara.
I acted fast—time’s critical for lost ring recovery. Tides favored a 5:30 am low at Hendry’s Beach, so I arrived by 4:30 am with my top-tier metal detector. I’ve mastered searches from East Beach to Hammonds Beach, and I gridded the area meticulously. Ten minutes in, a strong signal blared near Bates Beach-like depths. With precision, I scooped Alex’s ring from the sand—safe and sound. His gratitude echoed across Loon Point Beach to Leadbetter Beach.

Lost Engagement Ring Recovered and Returned in Kennett Square, PA!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Got a call from Dan from Kennett Square, PA after he found me in the Ring Finders Directory. He and his fiancee, Sarah, are engaged to be married in October of this year. Dan was seeking help in locating Sarah’s lost emerald and diamond engagement ring. Apparently the day before Sarah spent the afternoon planting flowers in a bed in their side and back yard…later that day when back in house she noticed her beautiful ring was not on her finger. After searching the dirt around the newly planted flowers without success they considered renting or buying a metal detector to look for the ring. But to quote Dan…”decided the job best left to a pro” and they reached out to me. I met them late afternoon on a Tuesday and they quickly gave me a detailed run down on where they think the ring must have come off. Of note is the fact that they both told me the ring was too big for her finger and had a tendency to slip off. Anyway, it wasn’t a large search area… basically 2 mulched flower beds somewhat crowded with flowers. I brought 3 machines with me…since the area was tight with plants I went with my Minelab Equinox 800 with a 6 inch coil…which would allow me to get in tight around the pants and close to the house. As always I first demonstrated my equipment on my own wedding ring to convey to Dan and Sarah that if I’m over the ring I’m not going to miss it! I searched the small back bed first with out success…Dan/Sarah anxiously watching nearby. I moved to the front bed and during my 1st pass my machine blasted out a beautiful 11 gold tone in my headphones. I’ve been detecting for 40 years…I knew  before even bending down and digging that this was the ring! I called Dan and Sarah over and smiled and said….I like this signal! I grabbed my pinpointer and jabbed it 2 inches down into mulch and it announced  a target. Grabbed a fistful of mulch and turned to Dan and Sarah….opened my hand…and there it was!!! Dan was crazy happy and Sarah’s face flooded with relief! Another successful recovery!
