Tantalum Wedding Band Lost During Camp Out in Centreville, Alabama… FOUND!

Contact:

On Thursday (March 19, 2026) I received a text from Dom stating he had lost his tantalum wedding band during a birthday camp out at a friend’s house in Centreville, Alabama that prior Saturday.  Dom, his wife, Rebecca, and friends had spent hours looking for it both visually and with metal detectors.  Centreville is near Tuscaloosa, which is about 2.5 hours from me.  To potentially save a 5-hour drive, I gave Dom some tips to look on Friday.  Dom contacted me back Friday evening and said they still couldn’t find it and asked for my assistance.  I was free Saturday and more than happy to help, so I agreed to drive down from Huntsville and meet them at 11am.

I met up with Dom and Rebecca Saturday morning.  Dom began walking me through all the areas he was at – unpacking the car, walking path, fire pit, and camping areas.  I started where he unpacked/packed the car and worked my way out, stopping anywhere Dom remembered.  We made it out to the round metal fire pit and Dom said he was tending the fire.  I asked if they had moved the pit to search and he said no.  I said let’s move it in case the ring rolled underneath.  We moved it and it wasn’t directly under, but as soon as I stepped back, I caught a glimpse of a circle laying in some ash on the ground.  I glanced up at Dom and said, “I think we got it, brother!”  He said, “no way!”  Dom came over and had trouble spotting it at first, because rings will easily hide in the grass/vegetation and play tricks with our eyes.  But once he saw it, Dom was so happy and relieved.  He called over to Rebecca and the homeowner, Hailey (thanks for letting us search!) to let them know the good news.  Smiles and high fives all around!  We all enjoyed some friendly conversation, and I told them about some of my prior searches.

This was my first time finding a tantalum ring.  For my Ring Finder friends, it was a 63 on the Equinox 900.  As always, thank you, God, for another successful recovery and safe trip!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless!

Lost wedding ring doing yard work, Brigantine NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

I got a call today from a fellow ring finder who covers the area further south of me. He had prior commitments and couldn’t make it to do search right away, so he asked if I could take the call for him. I agreed and reached out to the person in need, Robert.

On the phone, Robert explained that he had been doing yard work, digging in three different garden beds, when he noticed a hole in his glove and realized his wedding ring was missing. I told him I could be there in about an hour, and he said that would be perfect.

When I arrived, Robert showed me the first location where he had been doing some digging around , which was the same spot where he first noticed the ring was gone. I explained that rings are not always in the spot where people first realize they’re missing, but this is a good spot to start, as it’s the most likely. . After quickly searching the area, including the hole where the bush had been planted, I didn’t find anything.

Next, we moved to another small garden bed on the other side of the house. This area had a lot of metal interference. There was a four-inch metal border around the bed and a nearby gas meter causing all kinds of signals. Still, after carefully checking, I was fairly certain the ring wasn’t there either. We quickly move on to the last garden area, and had the same results there.

I explained to Robert that since his glove had a hole, the ring could have slipped off anywhere throughout his day. He had assumed it would be in the area where he was digging, but I told him that’s not always the case, and we needed to consider all locations where he had been making pulling, pushing, or tugging motions.

When I mentioned searching the whole yard, he looked a little overwhelmed. But I reassured him that my 15-inch coil would help speed up the process. Then I asked him where else he had been that involved movement that could have dislodged the ring. He mentioned being near the bird feeder but was convinced it wouldn’t be out there.

We walked to the backyard, and he showed me exactly what he had been doing. He had dumped water from the bird feeder in a specific area. I started scanning around the platform where the feeder sat with no luck. I then moved slightly to the left, swung my detector once or twice, and there it was, his wedding ring, just to the left of the bird feeder!

I suspect that when he dumped the water, his ring slipped off and fell into the garden bed. This is a great example of why it’s  so important to carefully retrace a persons steps and focus on motions that could have caused the ring to slip off. More often than not, lost rings aren’t where people expect them to be, they’re  hiding somewhere unexpected and just need to be tracked down.

I post every recovery story on Facebook — check them out!

Promise Ring Lost Throwing Dog Toy in Sylvan Springs, Alabama… FOUND!

Contact:

On Wednesday (March 11, 2026), I received a text from Kameriah stating her promise ring was lost while throwing a dog toy in her yard a few days prior.  She already bought a metal detector, but was unable to find it.  Kameriah lives in Sylvan Springs, Alabama which is about an hour and 45-minute drive from me in Huntsville.  I had to work at my full-time job on Thursday and Friday, so we setup a search for Saturday at 10am.

I met Kameriah on Saturday morning and had her show me exactly how and where she threw the dog toy.  She normally wears a size adjuster on her 10k white gold promise ring, but forgot to put the adjuster on that day.  I decided to use the 15-inch coil on my Equinox 900 metal detector to cover more ground in case the ring took a weird bounce.  Thankfully, on my first pass, I had a good sounding target in the lady’s gold range.  Just slightly hidden in the grass was Kameriah’s ring!  I looked up at Kameriah and gave her a big smile and thumbs up.  She was so happy to have her beautiful promise ring back.  Thank you, God for a quick and successful search!

We took some photos, said our farewells, and I was back on the road headed home.  I’m always happy to help and love that I get to go on these adventures!  Until the next one, please take care and God bless.

Ring Finder Metal detector Dockside Wedding Ring Recovery After 3 Weeks Under Ice

While enjoying a vacation in Mexico, I noticed a Facebook post from a gentleman named Tom who was desperately searching for help recovering his wedding ring. The ring had bounced off the end of his dock while he was feeding the seagulls and disappeared into the river below.

I reached out and let him know I would gladly help once I returned home. Tom said that would be fine and planned to contact me in about a week.

Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans.

Shortly after the loss, we went into a deep freeze and both the river and bay froze solid for nearly three weeks. The ring sat beneath the ice the entire time.

Once conditions improved, Tom contacted me and we carefully went over all the details — water depth, bottom composition, current conditions, and any obstacles near the dock. He mentioned there were a few rocks at the end of the pier where the ring had fallen. I didn’t anticipate that being much of an issue.

But when I arrived and suited up, I quickly realized there were far more than “a few rocks.”

For quite some time, the family had been tossing softball-sized rocks off the end of the dock, unknowingly creating what looked like an artificial reef directly below where the ring had fallen. The rocks were piled high at the exact drop zone.

Thankfully, I received a strong signal almost immediately — and it was the only signal in the area. The target was located right at the edge of the rock pile.

Working carefully, I had to move several rocks by hand in frigid water to isolate the signal. After six to eight precise scoops — making sure no rocks interfered — I finally lifted the scoop and saw gold.

Tom stood there in disbelief as his wedding ring emerged from the water.

We were extremely fortunate the ring had landed on the outer edge of the rock pile. Had it fallen deeper into the center of the stones, this recovery would have been far more complicated.

A successful recovery after three weeks under ice — and a great way to start the new year.

Hoboken NJ, Wedding Ring Lost In The Snow, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Nicole sent me a text early in the morning explaining that she had lost a cherished family heirloom ring and hadn’t been able to find it. Understanding how important it was to her, I asked her to call me in about five minutes so we could discuss the details more easily over the phone.

She explained that a few days earlier, they’d had an early season snowstorm, and once the snow stopped, she and her family decided to take their dog for a walk at the local park. During the outing, somewhere along the way, the ring slipped off her finger. Nicole was heartbroken and desperate to find it, as it held significant sentimental value.

Nicole explained that the night the ring was lost, her family had been playing in the snow at the park. The dog was running around, and they were throwing snowballs. At one point, a snowball landed in her pocket, where her cell phone was. She reached in to grab the phone, pulling out a handful of snow in the process. Everything was wet, so she removed her glove to shake her hand dry, and that’s likely when the ring slipped.

When I arrived at the park, Nicole came down to meet me and walked me to the exact spot where she thought the ring had come off. She showed me her movements that night, explaining how she shook her hand, leading me to suspect the ring might have fallen to her right. I began searching a large area—10 feet in front, 10 feet behind, and about 25 to 30 feet to the sides of where she had stood—but I found nothing.

As time went on, I began to wonder if someone might have picked up the ring and not reported it. Nicole’s expression revealed her growing worry, and it was clear she was starting to lose hope. I asked her to go over the details one more time and show me the exact spot once again. This time, I caught onto something new: the possibility that the ring may have stayed inside her glove.

With this in mind, I focused on the opposite side of where we’d been searching and made two additional paths in the snow, similar to my earlier search area. And there it was—her beautiful family heirloom ring, just an inch beneath the snow.

Nicole was overwhelmed with relief and joy. She had nearly given up hope, but this moment proved that persistence and attention to detail make all the difference. Every small clue matters when it comes to recovering something so precious.

Wedding Ring Lost In the Snow, Monroe NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

Jersey Shore Ring Finder

Kinjal reached out to see if I could help locate her husband’s lost ring. We had just experienced an early season snowstorm that ended around 11 AM and her husband decided to shovel the driveway and clear off their cars before the temperatures dropped into the single digits, which would freeze everything solid. Unfortunately, he wasn’t wearing gloves, and with the ice-cold snow on his hands, the ring easily slipped off.

She explained that a neighbor had loaned them a pinpointer, but despite hours of searching, they had no luck. They had even ordered a metal detector, but it wasn’t going to arrive until the next day. After hearing the situation, I told her I could come right away and asked her to send over the address. I gave her my ETA after I loaded up my gear and was on the road.

I started searching along one side of the driveway, picking up several signals, but none turned out to be the ring. I then moved to the area by the mailbox but still had no luck. Finally, I focused on the other side of the driveway. Just a few feet in, I got a strong signal that seemed promising. Using my pinpointer, I cleared a bit of snow, and the device started beeping like crazy. I reached down, scooped up a handful of snow, and there it was—the ring right in the middle!

Kinjal and her husband were incredibly grateful. As always, it felt great to help them recover something with great sentimental meaning.

Lost Wedding Ring on the Beach, Beach Haven NJ, LBI, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

Maureen called to see if I could help find her husband’s wedding ring, which she had accidentally dropped in the sand earlier that day. They were visiting her mother and had decided to enjoy a warm afternoon at the beach and do a little fishing. Her husband had given her the ring to hold for safekeeping while he fished, but somehow it slipped from her hand into the soft, powdery sand. They had tried using their children’s sand toys to sift through the area, but with no luck.

Realizing they needed some extra help, they did a quick Google search, found my page, and called right away. I packed up my gear and headed over. When I arrived, they showed me the area where the ring had likely fallen and shared the details. With just a few swings of my metal detector, I picked up a promising signal, and sure enough—there was the ring in my scoop. They couldn’t believe how quickly it was recovered after spending hours searching. Sometimes, calling a professional right away is the best way to save time and make the most of the day!
