Heirloom Ring Lost in Nashville TN Found With a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

Over 200 years this silver Claddagh ring has been in Andrew’s family, passed down from generation to generation. So when Andrew lost the ring while giving his Saint Bernard a bath in the back yard of his Nashville, TN home, he was terrified to say the least. He searched the internet on how to find a lost ring, then realized that the best option was to find an experienced metal detectorist. He found my profile on TheRingFinders website and sent me a text message. I made the short 25 minute drive to his home for what would be my third ring search of the day. In no time at all I had located the ring deep in the lush green grass with my metal detector. The history of this family heirloom ring is awesome and I am honored to be trusted to find it so it can keep the story going.

Lost Wedding Ring Found With a Metal Detector in Portland, TN

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

 

Aaron found my contact information on TheRingFinders directory after his wife lost her wedding ring in their Portland, TN back yard about a week ago. She actually lost both her engagement and wedding rings at the same time as she was playing with their dogs, but they quickly found the larger engagement ring in the grass. The wedding ring disappeared in the thick grass, and played hard to get even when Aaron used a metal detector to look for the ring himself. This was the second search of the day for me, and was hopefully going to be successful like the first search.

After Aaron showed me where his wife was standing when she lost her rings and where they found the engagement ring, he said he’d leave me to do my thing and he went back in the house. Ten minutes into the search I got the signal I was hoping for. The ring was completely concealed in the thick grass, about twelve feet away from where the engagement ring had been found. Both Aaron and his wife were very happy to have the wedding ring back on her finger with the matching engagement ring. Aaron’s wife had all but given up hope that her ring would be found. It was a great feeling to recover the ring for her.

Lost Ring in Murfreesboro TN Found With Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from Mitchell on June 6th, 2026 a few hours after he lost a very special ring in his backyard. It was a warm day, so he and his kids had a water balloon fight in their Murfreesboro, TN back yard. He felt the ring fly off his finger. The lush green grass in his yard, or possibly even one of the adjoining neighbor’s yards swallowed up his ring. He spent hours walking barefoot in his yard, hoping he’d find it by stepping on it, to no avail. He then found my information on TheRingFinders directory and gave me a call.

Mitchell’s father had owned the ring for many years and gave it to Mitchell just last year. Mitchell cherishes the ring and had worn it daily, so finding it was a must. I made the 45 minute drive from Nashville and met with Mitchell. He eagerly showed me where the water balloon fight took place. He anxiously watched as I started a grid search with my metal detector, and luckily he didn’t have to wait long. At the five minute mark I got the signal I was hoping for, it was Mitchell’s gorgeous white gold and diamond ring. Needless to say, Mitchell was all smiles. What a great feeling to reunite people with their lost treasures.

Metal Detector Rental in Nashville

Why rent a metal detector in Nashville, TN, or anywhere for that matter when you can have an experienced metal detectorist look for your lost treasures. My name is Bryon Elness and I am the TN RingFinder, based in Nashville, TN, but with several successful recoveries in many of the states surrounding TN. Call or text to discuss your metal detecting needs.

On April 28th. 2026 I received a call from a very nice lady named Paula. She had lost her beloved 14K gold brooch on Sunday, April 26th, most likely at her church. The brooch was the most sentimental item that she had received from her late husband, so to her it was priceless. Paula had already alerted the church staff to be on the lookout for her brooch inside the church buildings.

I met with Paula at her church about one hour after receiving her call. She showed me the route that she walked from the entry doors of the church to where she had been parked. I found a gold earring along the path, concealed in the grass, but not Paula’s brooch. Paula turned the earring into the lost and found in the church reception area. Paula asked me help her look inside the church, just to get a fresh pair of eyes to visually search the floors. No luck inside the church.

Once outside, Paula asked if I’d follow her to her friend’s house a few minutes drive away so I could use my metal detector along the path to her friend’s front door. I agreed to the search at her friend’s house, but asked if I could search her vehicle first. She assured me that she had searched her vehicle thoroughly and did not find the brooch. Using my digital borescope I searched under and around the driver’s seat and located Paula’s brooch tucked away, completely hidden from the naked eye. I showed her the screen with the live image of her brooch and she cried tears of joy. When I handed Paula her beautiful brooch she gave me the biggest hug and said, “You made my day! No, I take that back. You made my whole year!” It’s a wonderful feeling to re-unite nice people like Paula with their treasures that they thought were gone forever.

TN Ring Finder Travels to Mississippi to Recover Sentimental Jewelry Lost in Devastating House Fire

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I received a text from Anita on April 4th. She explained that the home that she hand her late husband built 22 years ago in Holly Springs, MS burned down in December. Sadly, the home was a total loss, with the fire consuming almost everything imaginable. Anita, with the help of some family members scoured the burned out remains and were able to salvage several items of jewelry, sterling flatware and other items that didn’t burn or melt. There was one ring in particular that Anita couldn’t find, which was a gift from her father to her mother on her parent’s 25th wedding anniversary. Anita had very little hope that ring that her mother once wore daily, and she too wore every day since her mother passed away would be found in the scattered burned out rubble of what used to be her beautiful home. I was her last hope. We agreed that I would make the almost four hour drive on April 14th and search for up to three days. Anita put me up in a cottage at a beautiful golf course, which was awesome and greatly appreciated.

It was hard work, shoveling, sifting and lifting sections of charred structure to get to areas of the house where Anita believed her most-sentimental and valuable jewelry could be. In less than one hour I was finding rings, some gold and some platinum, but still not THE ring. About four hours into my search I found THE ring. I took a pic and sent it to Anita. She was beyond relieved and said she was content with the results of my search, but I couldn’t stop there. I knew I could find more. I worked another four hours that day and another five hours the following day. With so much work to be done, I stopped counting after thirty rings, along with some gold chains and bracelets, many of which had also been passed down from Anita’s mother and mother-in-law. Before I left, I met one of Anita’s daughters and she was hoping I could look for some of her jewelry that was lost in the fire. I was able to locate one of the jewelry boxes that was full of jewelry, with a few of the rings being ones passed down from her grandmother.

Anita cried tears of joy as we looked over all of the recovered items. I wish I could have found every piece of missing jewelry and sterling flatware, but I am comfortable knowing that the most important items to Anita were re-united with her, so she can one day pass them down to her daughters. I was blessed by being able to help such a wonderful lady in her time of need. Now Anita can start the long process of having the lot cleared and new house being

Rose Gold Wedding Ring Lost for Over One Year Found with a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

 

Ryan called me on April 16th and said he had lost his rose gold wedding band the back yard of his Antioch, TN home twelve to eighteen months ago. He was confident it was in a 10’x15’ area of his backyard. He had bought a metal detector and found it was a huge waste of his time. I was in Mississippi on another RingFinder detail, but I assured Ryan that I would help him out when I got back to TN.

I called Ryan on April 17th when I was back in TN and he was ready for me to look for his ring. I first detected the area where Ryan expected his ring to be, but only found a few pennies, a dime and some small foil pieces. I expanded the search area and sixteen minutes into the search I got another signal that I expected to be another penny. About 1/2” to 1” deep was Ryan’s ring. I dusted it off and it looked as good as new. Ryan appreciated my detailed grid search and forensic approach to locating his ring. He admitted that he was a little nervous when he saw that I had to expand the search area. Thank you Ryan for trusting me to find your lost ring.

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Clarksville, TN Found With Metal Detector

I received a call from Adam in Clarksville, TN after he lost his gold wedding band in his backyard earlier today. I was packing up my gear for a ring search in Mississippi, but told Adam that I would make the one hour trip to his house before I had to leave for Mississippi. Adam had been searching online for a metal detector to purchase when he saw TheRingFinders directory, prompting him to wisely contact me, since he had no experience using a metal detector. I found Adam’s ring nestled deep in the grass, completely hidden from the naked eye in no time at all. Today was a great day!

Heavy Gold Bracelet Lost on College Campus in Nashville TN Found With a Metal Detector

  • from Nashville (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

On March 22nd I received what I would consider a frantic phone call from a young college student named Zorawar regarding a lost gold bracelet. He explained that he was playing baseball in a grassy courtyard area on his college campus when he lost his solid gold bracelet. He had placed it in his shorts pocket so it wouldn’t fly off his wrist as he was throwing the baseball. At some point, the bracelet fell out of his pocket.

He did what many of my clients have done, went and bought a cheap metal detector and began searching on his own. While he was swinging the metal detector, he had several of his close friends walking all over the grassy area looking for his bracelet. As time passed without the bracelet being found, he did an internet search which lead him to me.

Zorawar sent me a pin with his location and I met with him about thirty minutes after his initial call. I knew time was against us since the college campus is flooded with students and non-students, and realistically there could be someone who would find it and keep it for themselves. I powered up my XP Deus 2 metal detector and began a systematic grid search of the area, even going beyond the boundaries that Zorawar suggested.

After about thirty minutes of searching with my metal detector, it was my eyes that located the gold bracelet.

Understandably, Zorawar was frantic after he lost the bracelet and his mind was going 100 miles per hour. There were very few patches of thick grass that could have concealed the bracelet. All that was needed was a slow, methodical and systematic grid search, and the end result is a very happy and thankful young man. The bracelet has religious significance and Zorawar has worn it every day for the last eight years. Now he gets to keep that routine going. It was truly a great day for both of us.

Gold and Diamond Wedding Ring Lost in Nashville, TN Found by the TN Ring Finder AGAIN

Contact:

Roy called me on Feb. 21st after losing his gold and diamond wedding ring while landscaping at one of his client’s property. I was metal detecting in Florida, but assured Roy that his ring would still be in the area where he lost it when I returned to Nashville. I met Roy at his client’s expansive property on Feb. 24th and was briefed by Roy where he believed the ring flew off his finger. Within about ten minutes of turning on my metal detector I got the signal I was hoping for. Roy’s ring was buried under several inches of wood chips, bark, pine needles and loose soil. In November of 2025 Roy lost the same ring on the same client’s property and yours truly found it for him. It was a pleasure to help out my very first repeat customer.
