Rob was cleaning out his gutters and slung his ring off into the back yard. He purchased a metal detector and tried to find the ring, without success. Locating TheRingFinders on line, he called us for help. We set up to hunt the next day. Carrie and I had a 20’ x 20’ area to hunt. Easy-peasy. Ten minutes and we reunited Rob with his wedding band. Thank you Rob for the generous reward.
Received a call to look for a group of keys that he thought he had lost shoveling the driveway. One of the keys was to his car, which he could not move. Also a series of house keys and others. I started to search with CTX 3030. Found a lot of metal interference. Took rake and searched my signals along with my pinpointer. Nothing! There was a large pile of snow near some steps with a metal railing. Decided to use the pinpointer and buried it into the pile. BINGO!!
Received a text message about a lost ring in Elgin, Illinois. Apparently on Christmas Eve, his wife was outside cleaning crumbs off a tablecloth . In doing so, her large diamond engagement ring slipped off in the snow. The husband rented a detector but was unable to find the ring. I came out today, 1/10/2018 and did a 30 minute search. I found the ring which had apparently been stepped on by people searching for the ring. Needless to say he was very happy about finding the ring. I’m sure his wife was equally happy!!
This Christmas, under a bridge, I battled a giant troll for a gold ring! When he was distracted by tourists taking selfies, I snatched a lost heirloom from under his gaze and returned it to its rightful owner!
A woman lost her mother’s wedding ring, inscribed with her father’s name, while throwing snowballs at the troll on Xmas eve. She was just visiting this state for the holiday, so it was crucial she find it before her flight out of Seattle. After renting a metal detector, searching and not having any luck, her friend found my name on Google. She called me Christmas morning and I was on the case in a couple hours.
Luckily after around half an hour of searching, I hit the target! Buried in the snow was her ring! I was super happy to help and I got out of there quick before the troll knew what had happened…
Gold ring snatched from the Troll!
Happy reunion!

This morning, a plea for help reached me through a colleague from the high school within our school district. Joe, a gentle giant known for his compassionate spirit, had lost his wedding ring during a beach outing with his wife at Ventura Harbor Beach. Despite being physically imposing, Joe’s heart is as soft as a teddy bear’s, and his impact on the community of Fillmore, through years of dedicated service at FUSD, is immeasurable.
It was a late-night revelation, almost homebound, when Joe realized his precious ring was missing. In a moment of faith, Joe and his wife turned to prayer, seeking guidance on how to find a lost ring at the beach. Their online search led them to stumble upon my website and the Ringfinders link, unbeknownst to Joe that I was a Ringfinder myself. Promptly, he reached out to me for assistance.
Upon receiving Joe’s briefing on the location—Ventura Harbor Beach—I set out after school to embark on the mission of recovering his beloved ring. Joe provided specific instructions, citing a distance of 232 steps from the end of a cement walkway. However, with three such walkways dotting the shoreline, pinpointing the exact spot posed a challenge.
Undeterred, I selected the walkway I deemed most likely and commenced the meticulous process of gridding out the area. There lingered a nagging concern that the ring might have been lost along the 232 steps to the designated location, complicating the search. Nevertheless, I persisted.
Amidst a few false alarms, a promising signal echoed through my Excalibur II—a beacon of hope amidst the uncertainty. With bated breath, I scooped up the treasure from the sandy depths, revealing Joe’s sizable wedding ring. Its distinct dimensions left no doubt as to its rightful owner’s identity. A video call to Joe ensued, culminating in a moment of sheer joy as he beheld the recovered ring.

Madi contacted me and said she lost her Texas Aggie ring at a Bachelorette party on the banks of the Guadalupe River (Kerrville, TX. area). She said she found my contact information on the TheRingFinders.com member directory. Madi was able provide a good description of where the ring might have been lost and even sent me a photograph of the area the ring should be located in. Due to the property being a vacation home I had to wait for the owners to return for the Thanksgiving weekend in order to gain permission for access.
I made contact with the property owners and set up a time on the Friday after Thanksgiving that I could conduct a search. They told me they had already purchased a metal detector to try to find the ring themselves but quickly found that without experience it was not fruitful. I assured them with my skills and the right equipment I would find the ring if is was there.
Friday turned out to be a gorgeous West Kerr County Chamber of Commerce type of day. A light breeze and the temperature nearing 80 degrees meant a short sleeve shirt. I arrived at the property and quickly did a reconnaissance of the area Madi had described. Lush green grass topped the ground meant the perfect place for a ring to hide!
After ground balancing my Garrett AT Pro I began sweeping the detector at the edge of the target area. It was quickly evident that there were many underground objects that made my machine sing. One pass in my grid line. Two passes in my grid line. In the middle of my third pass – Bingo! That unmistaken tone of gold in my earphones. I looked down at the detector screen and saw the target ID at 76 and the target depth of 2-4″. I parted the grass and viola! Hidden from the naked eye was a ladies Texas A&M Class ring.
Gold deep in the grass!
The return is worth a beautiful smile. Gig’em!
Sounds easy, right? Not quite! It takes: Buckets of pull tabs, pounds of shredded aluminum cans and many hours of swinging the detector while learning the sound tones of different metals. Like a detective, asking the right questions to narrow the search area. And of course, lots of dollars spent in equipment.
So, if you lose your ring, jewelry, keys or even your cell phone don’t waste your time and money buying or renting a metal detector. Follow these simple steps to recover you lost items:

I received an e-mail from Arash this morning asking for my help in finding his lost ring.
Arash explained that he was shoveling snow off his driveway on Saturday, and had not realized that his ring was missing until that evening. Arash spent all day Sunday looking for the ring with no luck.
I met Arash and he showed me where he had shoveled the snow. Within 3 minutes of turning my machine on, I found his ring buried in four inches of snow on the side of his driveway.
