Platinum Wedding Band Lost While Cutting Yard-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

Kevin had contacted me and said he had lost his wedding band in the yard while cutting the grass. They had looked for it for a couple of days but the weeds in that area were quite tall and finding a ring visually was out of the question. I found the ring in an area where the weeds were around eight inches tall. Total search time was around an hour.

 

 

 

Gold Wedding Band Lost Right After Wedding-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

Linsey called me and said they had held a wedding venue in their yard for their daughter and son-in-law. Her yard was quite large and her son-in-law had lost his ring right after the wedding. She had purchased a metal detector but struck out.  Because of the size of the yard I set up a grid search and it took me all of two hours before I found it. Her daughter and son-in-law were out of town at the time.

 

 

 

Lost diamond bracelet found at Chicago Beach

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

Received a call this morning from a guy who lost his diamond bracelet, which was a gift, at North Ave Beach in Chicago playing volleyball. I was very concerned when we got there because the tractors already raked the sand, thought it may have been snagged. Gridded out the area and found it in about an hour.

First time to the beach this season but sure it’s no the last. Always enjoy the beach recoveries.

Happy Ending!!

Lost ring in Salt Lake City: Found

Natasha arrived in the US from the Ukraine a few months ago with her husband and son because of the Russian invasion of her home country. They settled in Salt Lake City. One of the few things they were able to bring with them was her beautiful yellow and white diamond wedding band. Unfortunately, while she was in their new front yard, the ring slipped from her finger and disappeared. She called me after a week of looking for the ring unsuccessfully. I brought my metal detectors to her home and quickly determined that the ring was not in the grass or in the nearby flower beds, so we knew we needed to look elsewhere. I started by moving a ceramic planter, and the ring suddenly popped into view. It had been pinned, out-of-sight, behind the planter. Now, as Natasha settles into her new home, although she still has the heartache of leaving her original home, at least she doesn’t have to deal with the heartache of losing her wedding ring, too.

Lost wedding ring found in Zanesville.

  • from Marietta (Ohio, United States)

 I received a text from a young lady needing help finding her husband wedding band he lost while playing kickball with his 2 boys 3 days ago!! Here is her story

On the evening of April 24th, my husband lost his wedding ring while playing kickball with our two young sons. He mentioned feeling it slide off his finger; however, given the activity, it was possible it had been lost earlier while throwing the ball. After an unsuccessful search Thursday night, I purchased a basic metal detector from Harbor Freight, quickly realizing that metal detecting is far more challenging than it appears.

Despite searching throughout Friday, we were unable to locate the ring. By Saturday, feeling disheartened, I reached out to several metal detecting groups on Facebook seeking assistance and advice. A kind individual directed me to https://theringfinders.com/Steve.Wagner/ website, where two local searchers were listed. I sent messages to both, and within minutes, Steve responded and offered to call. During our conversation, he explained that he was approximately an hour away but was willing to travel to assist us that very same day. True to his word, within two hours, Steve arrived at our home ready to help.

While I remained inside with the children, Steve conducted a thorough search of the yard. A short time later, he knocked on our door to update me. He explained the areas he had covered and noted that the length of the grass made the search more difficult, suggesting that mowing could improve future searches. He then casually mentioned finding a “quarter.” I laughed and held out my hand—only for Steve to drop my husband’s wedding ring into my palm.

The flood of emotion I felt in that moment is difficult to put into words: overwhelming relief, profound joy, and immense gratitude. This ring is not merely a piece of jewelry; it is a symbol of deep love, commitment, and countless memories.

We cannot adequately express how thankful we are for Steve’s kindness, professionalism, and dedication. His willingness to travel, his prompt response, and his genuine passion for helping others brought our family an indescribable sense of relief and happiness. It is clear that Steve finds true fulfillment in reuniting people with their most treasured possessions.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Steve. We will be forever grateful.

Sincerely,
The Hastings Family

Amanda was pulling weeds around her backyard and later realized that her very special ring was not on her finger. This ring was her grandmothers ring and was then passed down to her mother and later to Amanda. She was heart broken and for a month she thought about it often and it was a continuous ache in her heart. A friend who lives up north heard about Amanda’s situation and found theringfinders.com web site and sent her my number. We made arrangements and it took a good 25 minutes to search the area and as I was finishing up the back yard I got a sharp, clear signal along the wooden fence and as I pushed my Garrett AT pin pointer down into the grass I could see just a small glimmer of gold and sure enough, there was Amanda’s lost gold heirloom ring, tucked down in the grass where no one could have ever possible spotted it just by looking. Amanda was overjoyed and all smiles as she slipped her ring back on her finger. How I thank God for allowing me to find Amanda’s lost gold heirloom ring and for being a part of her joy and happiness!

Have you lost something and need help? Call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk.

Lost ring in Kirksville Mo…. Found with a metal detector

Contact:

A very nice young man named Kyle called me about trying to recover his 14K wedding band.

He was walking a friend’s dog on a leash in a park when the dog bolted for some reason twisting his fingers and his ring flew off.

He borrowed a metal detector but being unfamiliar with it couldn’t find the ring. This was his father’s ring so he really wanted to find it.

We were there a little over two hours, gridding different sections where the ring was lost when I found it. He was very happy to have it back.

Chris and Hollie were savoring a perfect day at the beach in Ocean City, NJ. They had spent the day soaking up the warm sun, cooling off with a refreshing swim. But when Chris dove into a wave, his wedding band slipped off his finger and vanished into the churning water.
The next morning, Chris called me. Could I help him find his lost ring? I got the details and made my way to the beach, arriving just as the tide was going out. Chris and Hollie were waiting anxiously, but trying to stay positive as they got ice cream and settled in to watch me search.
The water was waist-deep and murky, with a strong current that made it hard to walk. I moved slowly and methodically, scanning the ocean floor as I went. About 25 minutes later my metal detector buzzed. I scooped down and saw the ring in the scoop!
I emerged from the water, walking back to where they were sitting. Chris and Hollie were overjoyed, their faces lighting up with relief and happiness. Finding the ring was the perfect way to end their day at the beach in Ocean City, NJ.

200th Return by Richard Browne Member of TheRingFinders.com Centerville, MA

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

February 24, 2025

It was the second warmest day since January 1st and a grate day to clean up some of the winter’s wrath on tree limbs. Dan was in the wooded area next to an old cranberry bog behind his house doing just that. He was carrying a fallen limb to the rear edges of his property when a low hanging branch snagged one of his hearing aids from his ear. After hours of searching, without finding the hearing aid, Dan reached out for help.

A call to Eleanor, at J&E Enterprises, got Dan two useful bits of suggestions. First he was encouraged to call one of TheRingFinders and in the meantime he could try dragging a magnet. Dan called me first. I answered the call and I was on my way. While waiting for me to arrive the search with a magnet was on. Something I had never thought of while searching for any of the 6 hearing aids that I have returned.

As I had done the day before, I adjusted my detector to the specific model hearing aid I was searching for. The area was again less than a 20 foot diameter around the branch. A standard cross hatch search pattern because of the foliage and terrain was about impossible. About 20 minutes passed with many bogus iron alerts from my detector, right tone but wrong numeric reading. A slower, shorter swing of the detector started on the outer  edge of the most probable area that the hearing aid would be in. Low and behold right under the branch that had caused the loss and again, as in yesterday’s find, the hearing aid could not be seen while standing above it. I had to get on my knees and carefully move the foliage that was covering the hearing aid before retrieving it for Dan.

This was my 200th return since I joined TheRingFinders and as I did on the 100th return I wanted to give something special to the owner of the lost item. Unfortunately I did not have the Carpe Diem token with me and I had to return to Dan’s home the next day. The token was designed by a metal detecting friend, Jim Wirth. Sentimental Memories are something that cannot be replaced and I am so fortunate to have so many. Thanks to all that have reached out to TheRingFinders for help and in making Unforgettable Memories.
