Necklace Found by Rob Ellis, Woodford, Virginia

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)

SMILES from Lawrence and Lexie

Lawrence called me, desperate to help him find his girlfriend’s necklace. He had it in his shirt pocket for safe keeping while driving before it went missing. The young man had been unloading the truck late at night when it fell from his pocket.

It was a very hot day, and I searched where he had parked the truck for hours. Three generations of the family were there watching from the porch. It was wonderful to have the support, and cool water to drink.

 

I was looking about 30 feet on the driveway from where Lawrence thought it was lost, when my wife walked over. She knew I was nearly exhausted from hours of searching and it was time to call off the search. Everyone was stunned when Mrs. Ellis quietly said “here it is” as she gingerly picked it up. She had spotted the delicate necklace which was ground into the gravel driveway. Everyone was stunned because we had all walked over that part of the driveway, and no one had noticed the necklace!

Gold Wedding Ring found in Long Beach Backyard

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

Paul was doing some gardening in his Long Beach backyard when his ring vanished into a large bush.

When I arrived he showed the rather large bush so I used my detector to sweep the periphery of the bush and didn’t get any signals, so I used my pin-pointer to get inside and underneath but still there was no signal.

I decided to check the succulents in the front border area and that is where I found Paul’s ring.

Heirloom wedding ring found with metal detector in Huntington Beach

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

Tom lost his ring while tossing a ball for his dog at dog beach in Huntington Beach, Ca. He said the ring used to be his father’s and I could tell it was really special to him. I met him down by the water where the loss occurred and started gridding the area. About 15 or 20 minutes without a single signal I got a high tone and right away I knew it was hitting on the silver and gold ring. Tom was very happy to get this special ring back.

North Wildwood NJ Lost Bracelet Found by Ring Finders South Jersey John Favano

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)

Lost Gold Bracelet Found in North Wildwood Garden!

Kate was gardening in North Wildwood, NJ when something unfortunate happened — she lost her beloved gold bracelet. She searched the area carefully but had no luck finding it. Feeling frustrated and disappointed, she remembered hearing about the Ring Finders South Jersey.

That’s when she contacted me — her local North Wildwood ring finder.

I answered her call right away and asked a few key questions about where she thought she lost it. Kate explained she had been moving plants and spreading mulch when she noticed the bracelet was gone.

Luckily, I was nearby and told her I’d be there in 10 minutes. I grabbed my metal detector and headed over.

When I arrived, we walked around the yard. Kate pointed out a grassy area and the garden where she had been working. I began searching the grass first. After a few passes, the detector stayed silent. No signals there.

Then I moved to the garden bed where Kate had spent some of her time that morning. Almost instantly, my metal detector gave off the sound I had been listening for!

I carefully dug into the soil, pushing aside the fresh mulch. About five inches down, I spotted a glimmer of gold — the bracelet was found!

Kate was so relieved. She said, “Thank you for finding the bracelet, it is very special to me!” Hearing that made my day.

She explained that it must have slipped off while she was moving soil and plants. The bracelet had great sentimental value, and she thought it was gone forever. But thanks to the Ring Finders South Jersey and a fast response, she had it back in no time.

It was an awesome day in North Wildwood, NJ — one that ended with a happy reunion between Kate and her lost jewelry.

Franklinville NJ Wedding Band Found by John Favano Ring Finders South Jersey

Lost a ring?

Nothing puts a damper on a fun weekend like losing something valuable—especially something that can’t be replaced.

John had been camping with family and friends on a quiet farm in Franklinville, NJ. It was the kind of weekend you remember—good food, great people, and time away from the noise. But at some point during the night, while playing around, John’s gold wedding band flew from his finger and disappeared into the grass.

He searched the area with help from his friends, but no luck. Later that night, around 4 a.m., I got a text about the lost ring. We spoke early the next morning, and I agreed to meet him at the site.

Using my metal detector, I mapped out a grid to begin the search. At first, nothing. Just scrap metal and typical ground junk. After about 25 minutes of expanding the grid and scanning deeper into the surrounding area—finally, the signal I was hoping for.

I dug carefully, and out came a beautiful gold ring.

John was thrilled—and deeply emotional. This ring wasn’t just a wedding band. It had once belonged to his father, who had recently passed. Getting it back meant the world to him.

Helping someone recover a part of their history and heart—that’s why I love doing this.

Lost diamond ring while hand feeding tarpons

  • from Miami (Florida, United States)

This was one of my most interesting recoveries to date.  I received a call from a woman who was down on vacation and went to Robbie’s in the Florida Keys.  It’s a tourist destination and marina.  They have a section where you can feed the tarpon.  You can actually see them in some of the photos circling around me.  She had lost her ring while feeding the fish. They jump out of the water and take the fish right out of your had.  The ring was there for a couple days. I knew it was gonna be a hard recovery because that marina has been there forever and I’m sure there was 50 years worth of garbage there. But after about two hours, I was able to find it.  It made for some great pictures.

So if you’ve lost any type of jewelry anywhere, give me a call and I’ll help you find it. Call/text louis at (305) 608-1870

Lost platinum ring lost in Franklin, TN found by RingFinder metal detectorist

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)

Kasey called me late on 09-05-2025 after losing a very sentimental platinum ring in her yard. A friend of hers saw TheRingFinder website and Kasey saw that I was only about an hour drive from her. We agreed that I would conduct the search the following day.

Kasey and her husband had been cutting down an old wrought iron fence around a swimming pool that was going to be removed. She had placed her ring in her pocket, thinking it was safe there. At some point during the day she took her phone out of her pocket, and the ring fell to the ground, which was covered in about 4” tall, thick grass.

She and her husband spent hours looking for the ring, even using her father-in-laws metal detector. She said all the machine did was make lots of noise over every square inch of the property.

After Kasey pointed out the areas that she suspected her ring might be I began a grid search with my metal detector. Right at the 42 minute mark, I got the signal in my headphones that more or less said, “you found me, so let’s go surprise Kasey.” I had Kasey come back outside to show me the areas where I should be looking again. As she was pointing them out to me I held the ring up. It took her a few seconds to see it, but when she did, the huge smile on her face made it obvious that I had made her day. Kasey shared with me that her husband had designed the ring and the large center diamond was from her grandmother, so the ring was not replaceable. What a wonderful day for all.

John The Ring Finder

I got a call from Annie, the sister of a man named Jim. She sounded worried and emotional.

Jim had lost his white gold wedding band while swimming in the ocean at Sea Isle City, New Jersey.

A powerful wave hit him, and the ring slipped off his finger into the rough water.

Annie explained everything over the phone. The family was upset and hoping I could help recover the ring.

As Ring Finder John, I’ve recovered many rings along the Jersey Shore. This wasn’t my first Sea Isle search.

I met Jim and the family at the next low tide. The ocean was still rough and churning.

Jim showed me the area where the ring had likely fallen off. We hoped to find it quickly.

After hours of searching, I came up empty. No sign of the wedding band that day.

I returned the next low tide. Conditions were still difficult. Waves and shifting sands made recovery harder.

Again, no luck. But I wasn’t giving up on this lost ring in Sea Isle City just yet.

For the next few days, I watched tide charts closely and waited for calmer water conditions.

On the seventh day, I returned during low tide. The ocean had finally calmed a little.

While scanning the area, I got a deep, solid signal in the wet sand.

I dug carefully—and there it was! A beautiful white gold wedding band, shining in the sunlight.

After seven days underwater, I finally held it in my hand.

I called the family right away. Jim was thrilled beyond words when he saw his lost wedding ring.

He slipped it back on his finger, smiling with relief and joy. The whole family was grateful.

Recovering a lost ring in the ocean takes patience and persistence—but it’s always worth it.

This is why I love what I do as Ring Finder John.

If you’ve lost a ring in Sea Isle City or the Jersey Shore, don’t give up hope.

She went back to the beach and the lifeguard’s set cones around the area where the loss occurred. When I arrived there was a neighbor of hers with a cheaper metal detector trying to help. I made about 4 or 5 passes and located her ring.
