Terry, like all of us have, was feeling the frustrations of life. In a moment of lasps the ring was taken off and thrown. Thrown into one of the worst locations, filled with trash and landscaping debris.  She immediately regretted this……She tried to find it. Many times returning to the spot, sliding down the steep hill in desperation. She even bought a metal detector, grasping at anything she could do to find her ring. She finally ended up on the internet.  Theringfinders.com was her best hope. After hours of searching through the rough terrain her ring is back where it belongs.  Always an honor to help someone get back such an irreplaceable item.

 

 

 

 

Down and dirty


Well I’m 70 years old and out here gettin’ DOWN and DIRTY… and before y’all get to talkin’, it ain’t that kind of dirty 😏😂

It’s just me, my metal detector, and a whole lotta Alabama mud. While some folks my age are rockin’ in a chair, I’m out here diggin’ holes, chasin’ beeps, and lookin’ for a little silver like it’s still 1965 💁‍♀️

Who needs a gym membership when you’ve got squats, lunges, and a shovel? Baby, this IS my cardio.

And let me tell you—there ain’t nothin’ wrong with a little dirt under your nails if it means you’re still out here LIVIN’.

So if you see me out in a field lookin’ like I wrestled a gator in a swamp… mind your business. I might just be one beep away from somethin’ good 😉

Lost Sentimental Yellow Gold Earring at Kaiona Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This Earring find began last Wednesday night when I received a text from Kim who lives in the Aliamanu area of Oahu.  She thought it would be either at Kaiona Beach known locally as Obama’s Beach as he has a home nearby or Nuuanu Park.  I missed her follow-up  call as the phone was showing a name I didn’t recognize.  We finally spoke again this morning and decided to meet at the beach around noon.  Kim met me in the parking area along the road and took me to the area of the beach she thought the Earring may have been lost.  She drew a line in the sand and I started a grid search in the water from there.  After about an hour and several possible targets later I was surprised to see her sentimental yellow gold earring in my scoop.  I went to where Kim was sunning on the beach and she met me at the water’s edge.  “Yes that’s it!” she exclaimed excitedly.  She gave me a hug of thanks and relief.  She got the earring from her Mom when she was around five years old. I told her how happy I was to find it in the water as Oahu Parks are terrible to hunt, with all the years of metal party debris in the ground.  Aloha to Kim!

Cartier Love Bracelet Found and Returned from Newport North Private Park, Newport Beach, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)


If you need help finding jewelry or any other sentimental metalic item call or text Stan the Metal Detector Man.. 949-500-2136


*** Maria lost her Cartier Love Bracelet while she was attending an outdoor party at a gated community of Newport Coast, Newport Beach, CA. When she called me, she had already found one of the two piece 18 kt.  gold bracelet.

I was able to meet her just after we spoke on the phone.

I was confident that we had a very good chance of finding the missing half because it’s not a public park area and we could start where she found the other half of the bracelet.  About 15 minutes into the search we had success. This is much larger than a ring ( 18kt. approx. 17 grams) a big easy target for a metal detector. Actually it was in fairly deep grass but it was visible from one direction with the sun in a perfect position .. Maria was said she had walked over it se weak times when she was trying to find it.

A side note: this is the second Cartier Love bracelet recovery I’ve done in the same outdoor park venue., .

Lost Ring at a Construction Site in Woolwich NJ

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

 

Kevin called me after a friend of one of my successful recoveries referred me. He lost his 

titanium wedding band while at work. He was at a large construction project, working with moving sprinklers & hoses from different lots. It could be on 1 of 4 lots. We agreed on a 6:30 am time for the search.

I met Kevin at the construction site. It is a huge new housing development. He showed me the 4 properties that he was working on. The lots were not that large. I started on the 1st one, no luck. Moved to the second lot, strike 2. The third lot was the biggest, strike 3. But I was not out yet…

The fourth lot, about 5 minutes in, I finally got a good tone. Spread the grass from the newly laid sod, and there was Kevin’s ring. I took some pictures, then called Kevin to come to the 4th lot. He showed up about 5 minutes later. I asked him if there was any other place it might be, he went to the bed of his pickup and started looking there. I held up his ring while we continued to look. The look on his face when he realized that I was holding his ring was priceless. He explained that he was leaving the next day for vacation with his wife & kids to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary. 

I asked him what his wife would say when she found out he had his ring back. He decided to FaceTime her while I was there. She couldn’t believe it when he held up the ring for her to see. I hope they had a GREAT vacation!

Joe was walking along the outside of the golf course pickup up trash and stray balls. He had his phone in his shirt pocket.  When he got back home it wasn’t there. His wife and him walked the area four times looking for it with no success.  Later that day they were supposed to get upgraded phones with a trade in. Yep that meant that the lost phone now couldn’t be called and tracking it with an app was now impossible.  My son and I along with Joe set out to find it. The more eyes the better and 2 metal detectors also. Rest is history.  Always a pleasure to meet new people and put smiles back on people’s faces.

 

Lost Yellow Gold Wedding Band at Four Seasons Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call Friday 17 April from Four Seasons Security asking if I was available to recover a guests ring in the dry sand beach chair area.  They told me their guest would be departing soon, so I would have to mail it to them if found.  Security gave me the contact’s name, Jay,  from Denver, Colorado.  I told security I would hunt first light Saturday morning so that I could move the chairs from the search area and not bother the guests.  After moving the chairs, I started a grid search.  After about 5 minutes, I got a nice low tone under where a beach chair had been and in one scoop there was a yellow gold ring.  I went to my car to text the guest a pic for confirmation.  It certainly was! We verified by the brand name.  “That’s the one!  Thank you very much!”  The post office was still open, so I rushed and packed the ring and Jay received it today in Denver!  Another one for the Book of Smiles!  Aloha to Jay!

 

Lost Key Fob Recovered on Surf City Beach, LBI by Edward Trapper – NJ Ring by Finder”

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Edward Trapper NJ ring Finder recovering lost fob on LBI

I was contacted by Brian regarding a lost key fob somewhere on a local beach. His daughter had been out the previous night walking along the shoreline, enjoying the full moon, when the key fob unknowingly fell from her purse.

The search area was quite large since she had covered a significant distance during her walk. Upon arrival, I began in the most probable drop zone but didn’t receive any signals.

I expanded the search northbound for approximately one block, attempting to follow what appeared to be her footprints, but still no luck. I then returned to the original area and searched closer to the waterline—again with no success.

Re-evaluating the situation, I decided to follow another set of tracks heading south that seemed consistent with her path. Roughly 50 feet into that direction, I received a strong signal. One scoop later, the lost key fob was recovered.

As is often the case, the item was located in the last area searched—but persistence paid off.

The key fob was successfully returned, and another client was relieved to have their property back.
