White Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Front Yard-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by a husband, (Ben), saying his wife lost her wedding ring in the front yard and that they had tried finding it with a metal detector, but had not located it. They had a very large front yard, but had marked off an area they thought it would be, because he had to run the mower. The area he thought it would be had not been cut. The temperatures those days were at the 95 degree range and I was in the full sun with no relief from any shade. The first day I spent around 4-5 hours finding nothing but surface items that sounded like a ring, small pieces of foil. I had completely covered the entire area he thought it would be. I was spent from the heat, so I came back the next day and expanded the search area. After around 4 hours I was well outside of the original search area by around 60 feet or so and I got a consistent 17 on my Manticore and it seemed to be on the surface because of the double beep. I had found it, but there was a problem. It was in the area that had been mowed and had been damaged from being run over with the mower tire. The band had been bent, had a small stone missing, and the main setting stone was loose. So as soon as I could I put it in a small zip lock bag so if anything else came loose it would not get lost.

Losing a treasured piece of jewelry—especially an engagement ring—can be a heart-wrenching experience. That’s exactly what happened to Heather during a visit to Ocean City, NJ. One moment she was soaking up the sun, and the next, she noticed her engagement ring was gone.

Heather wasn’t exactly sure where she lost it. It could’ve been at home, in the car, or somewhere along the beach. Still, her instincts told her the sandy shoreline of Ocean City was the most likely spot.

In a moment of panic but holding onto hope, Heather reached out to Ring Finders South Jersey, having heard about our metal detecting recovery service. I got to the beach as quickly as I could, and Heather pointed out the general area where she had spent time earlier that day.

With the tide still low, I began a careful grid search using professional-grade metal detecting gear. After a few passes, a strong signal caught my attention.

I stopped, knelt down, and gently began to dig beneath the surface. Just a few scoops in, there it was—Heather’s sparkling engagement ring, buried just inches under the sand.

The look on Heather’s face when I returned the ring was unforgettable—pure relief and joy. It had slipped off without her even realizing, but thankfully, we were able to recover it before the tide or foot traffic swept it away for good.

These moments never get old. Every successful recovery is a reminder of how meaningful these items truly are.

Margate NJ Lost Wedding Band Found by Ring Finders South Jersey

  • from North Wildwood (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

I recently got a call from Sami and Mitch about a lost wedding band in Margate, NJ.
They had been enjoying a sunny day on the beach when disaster struck—Mitch’s wedding band disappeared.
The ring had only been on his finger for one month.
They searched the sand by hand but couldn’t find anything.
That’s when they reached out to me for help.

As a professional ring finder with a metal detector, I’ve recovered many lost rings across the Jersey Shore.
I met Sami and Mitch at the location where the ring was lost.
They explained exactly how and where it may have fallen off.
Details like that are essential when starting a metal detector search.

We narrowed the area down quickly and began scanning.
My metal detector can locate rings buried deep in the sand.
After a few careful sweeps, I heard the unmistakable sound.
I dug down gently—and there it was: Mitch’s lost wedding band.
It had settled several inches beneath the soft beach sand.

They were thrilled.
Big smiles, huge relief, and heartfelt thanks followed.
Returning that wedding band meant everything to them—and to me.

Helping couples recover lost wedding bands in Margate NJ is something I truly enjoy.
Every recovery is unique, and each one tells a story.
In this case, quick action helped us get the ring back fast.

Lost jewelry can sink quickly in soft sand, especially near the shoreline.
Time and tides don’t wait, so acting fast is key.
If you lose a ring, mark the area and call a professional.
The sooner you act, the better the chance of success.

Many beachgoers don’t realize how useful a metal detector can be.
It’s not about treasure hunting—it’s about helping people.
The look on someone’s face when their ring is found? Priceless.

If you’ve lost a ring in Margate NJ or anywhere on the Jersey Shore, don’t panic.
You don’t have to search alone or rent a metal detector.
Experienced ring finders know how to scan efficiently and spot buried rings quickly.

I’m always ready to help reunite people with their lost items.
From wedding bands to engagement rings, I’ve recovered them all.
And every time, it’s just as meaningful as the first.

Thanks again to Sami and Mitch for trusting me with their search.
I’m so glad I was able to return their lost wedding band.

Enjoy the rest of your summer—and keep that ring safe!

Engagement ring lost in lake and safely returned

  • from Ashland (Kentucky, United States)
Contact:

Another successful recovery. Engagement ring lost in the bottom of the lake located in Peebles, OH. Customer contacted me to recover his wife’s engagement ring. The owner did a very good job of putting me within a 12′ circle of where ring was lost. Recovery took about 1 hour in about 10′ of water. The lake had 5′ tall lakeweed making recovery extremely difficult with no visibility at that depth, however with a Deus 2 metal detector I was able to recover it. In the first picture is the moment of the return Overall very happy customer

Ring recovery I won’t forget- Pensacola Beach

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Yesterday afternoon, as I was heading home from work, I got a call from Devon. The week before, I had been away for the holiday and had to turn down several people needing help, so it felt especially good to be available — and to have my gear in the car — when Devon called.

Devon had lost something incredibly meaningful over the weekend: his grandfather’s ring. It had been passed down to him to wear on his wedding day and had been in the family for 55 years. He lost it while throwing a football in the Gulf late at night, and he said one of the hardest things he’s ever done was call his grandfather to tell him it was gone.

Thankfully, a coworker who heard him talking about it at work knew what I do and suggested he give me a call.

We met at the beach, and Devon was clearly anxious as he explained where he’d been in the water. I started making passes with my detector, pulling out some trash at first — each time hoping it might be the ring. I reminded myself that God’s will would be done either way, and I settled in for the hunt.

Eventually, I pushed out deeper into the June Grass — and that’s when I heard it. The unmistakable tone of gold.

I scooped up a mix of shells and sand — and there it was: Devon’s heirloom ring.

He hadn’t seen me find it, so I walked over and joked that I was taking a break because there was just so much random metal out there. I held out the scoop casually and said, “Take a look at the stuff I’m finding.”

Devon leaned in… and then saw it. His expression shifted from worry to absolute joy. He grabbed my hand and pulled me in for a hug.

He called his wife right away with the good news — but the best moment came when he FaceTimed his grandfather. The shock and joy on his face said it all. He said, “I can’t believe it,”!

I was thrilled myself. Moments like this are exactly why I do what I do. I’m incredibly grateful I could help continue the story of this special ring.

Congratulations, Devon — and thank you, and your colleague, for trusting me.
