Ring found on Anniversary, Gulf Shores, AL

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

Dustin texted me yesterday while I was wrapping up in Gulf Shores. Unfortunately, we kept missing each other until I was almost back to Pensacola and already committed to a family dinner.

When we finally connected, he was so kind on the phone that I walked him through a few tricks he could try to find his wife’s ring without a detector. I also told him that even though they were heading back to Indiana the next day, I’d get up at the crack of dawn and come back over if needed.

Dustin gave it a solid effort, but by the end of the night it was clear he still needed some help—so we made a plan to meet early Saturday morning.

When I arrived, Dustin mentioned it was also their anniversary. At that point, there was no question—we had to find that ring.

As soon as I stepped onto the beach, I could see where they had been digging and moving sand the night before. A stick was still in place marking where their umbrella had been. I started there and only made it a few feet before I got a strong, deep gold signal. It was clear the ring had been pushed even deeper during the search.

Two careful scoops later, I had her ring in my hand.

Congratulations, Dustin—this one should make for a much better anniversary trip back to Indiana. 👍💍

Lost ring Glen Ridge NJ…. Found!!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
After the snow settled, this husband and wife decided to enjoy a peaceful walk outside… but what started as a quiet stroll quickly turned into an epic snowball fight. ❄️
Somewhere between the laughter, dodging, and a perfect snowball packing technique… a ring went missing. It wasn’t until they got back home that the husband realized his wedding band had slipped off while making snowballs and was now somewhere buried beneath fresh snow.
Cue the panic.
Enter Kati from Greenwood Detecting.
With a focused search around the “battle zone,” careful grid work, and a bit of patience, the ring was located, right where the snowballs were packed. Hidden beneath the snow, but not gone for good.
Another ring recovered. Another story with a happy ending.
Another marriage saved. 💍

Lost ring West Orange, NJ… Found!!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
Not every recovery happens in a park or on a beach… sometimes, it takes us straight to the curb. 🗑️💍
We recently got a call about a missing wedding ring that was accidentally tossed out with the trash. By the time we arrived, we were met with a full lineup of garbage and recycling bags stacked, sealed, and ready for pickup. Let’s just say… there were quite a few potential “targets” to work through. 😅
With a methodical approach (and a bit of optimism), we started scanning and working bag by bag. Fortunately, luck was on our side. The ring turned up in about the 5th or 6th bag. 🎯
And here’s where Mother Nature gave us an unexpected assist: New Jersey was in the middle of a polar vortex ❄️ The freezing temperatures kept everything, well… nicely preserved. No odors, no mess, about as ideal as a garbage recovery can get!
Another ring safely back where it belongs 💍
Another relieved client 🙌
Another reminder to always double-check before tossing things out! 😉

5 of 7 LOST GOLD RINGS in HIGH POINT, NC…..FOUND!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

 


This has been a crazy one!

So I get a text from this young lady saying she had lost some rings while playing with her kids in their wooded area of their back yard. She had placed all the rings in her pocket but she didn’t know there was a hole! Little did I know there were a total of 7!

I get there Wednesday night and found 4 of the 7 before I had to go out of town. I tried again last night and the 5th of the 7 was found. There are still 2 more that are soldered together left to be found.

Plan is for me to try again soon. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a text from a gentleman stating his wife had lost a gold ring with a large topaz stone while doing some gardening/planting in there backyard a few days ago.

We agree on a date and time. I make the drive, get to the area and 15 mins later found her ring!

Only it wasn’t in the flowerbed, it was in a pot that she planted a plant in! I scanned the plastic pot and got a signal. The first signal was a wine twist top. I put everything back and there was still a signal!

Last signal was her 14k gold ring with large topaz stone!

Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Wayne, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Rich was enjoying the spring weather with his wife and young son at a park in Wayne, PA. After some action on the playground he took a break at a picnic table. While sitting he felt his gold wedding band slip off and drop straight down into the grass under the picnic table. After a frustrating hour of searching he gave up and called me after finding me online in The Ring Finder directory. I was 30 minutes away and told him I would see him at 6:30 pm that same day. When I got there the first thing we did was move the heavy picnic table out of the way…then I set my machine for “gold only”. Less than 5 minutes later…his ring was back on his finger! He couldn’t believe he couldn’t find with his eyes but in his defense the ring did blend in with the yellow grass!!!

 

LOST 24k WEDDING RING IN MORRISVILLE, NC…..FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a call that a young man had lost his 24k wedding ring while playing volleyball. They thought he lost it in the sand. I jumped in the truck and made the almost 2 hour drive.

I get there, get the story and begin my search. I searched the entire volleyball sand pit area 3-4 times and wasn’t coming up with the ring. One of the ladies had a 24k gold and it rang up a 91. I couldn’t believe it rang up that high until I found his ring.

I expanded my search area. After about an hour to hour and a half I went near the grass edge to the higher grass area in the direction of the water and I get a 94 signal! I look down and I can see a gold ring! Apprenatly the ring had bounced off the ball and went to his right about 10-15 feet!!

Another recovery in the books! This one was my 100th ring recovery since joining “The Ring Finders!”

Lost wedding ring – Dauphin Island, AL

 

It was Wednesday evening and I was enjoying dinner with my BFF and detecting partner in Gulf Shores when I got a call from Justin who was vacationing at the beach from St Louis, MO. In spite of my phone displaying an unknown number, something told me to answer it. He explained that he had lost his wedding band over on Dauphin Island and sounded quite desperate to find it. Since I was visiting my friend for a week, I suggested I could probably look for it on Friday when I was planning to pass through on my way back home to Mobile. Hearing the disappointment in his voice, I decided my friend and I could go ahead and hop on the ferry first thing Thursday morning instead and try to help him out.

Justin anxiously met us upon our arrival at his rental and explained that he had thrown a football and felt the ring come off as he did so. They had been looking in the sand for it but, being platinum, it blended right in with the sand. He showed us where he had been standing and had even staked out an area where he believed the ring to be. By the time I was getting my machine set up, Cheryl had already completed her first pass of the area we were going to grid. I took about three steps toward the area to start when I heard Cheryl right behind me say, “I found it”….. pretty much right where I had been standing when I turned on my detector lol. There’s a good reason she is becoming known in the area by her well deserved nickname – “Beach Angel”. For the second time this week, I was thankful to have her with me as she seems to have an uncanny ability to go right to the exact area when we are doing a search. And Justin was very thankful to put his ring back on his finger where it belonged ! And please check out his awesome ministry channel on YouTube – Trial by Faith ……
