Lost Wedding Ring Millburn NJ… Found!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
⚽💍 Tackled by love… and then by his son!
 
Got a text Sunday evening from a wife whose husband felt his wedding ring fly off the moment his son tackled him while watching a soccer match. 👀 One second it was on his hand, the next—it was somewhere on the field!
 
We met up about 30 minutes later, and after a short search (less than 10 minutes!), I had it back in his hand. 💪🧲 The same ring he was married with—gone and found before the sun even set.
 
Great way to wrap up the week: helping someone recover a piece of their story. 💛
 
Sometimes the biggest wins come from the smallest things we find.

Lost Ring Central Park NYC… Found!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
🌳💍 The Central Park Ring
Toss 💍🌳
Recently, a man in Central Park managed what we can
only describe as a one-in-a-million shot—and not in a
good way. 😅
While enjoying the day near the Conservatory Garden,
his ring was somehow launched (yes, launched) into
the bushes. But not just any bush—this ring stuck the
landing dead center in a shrub with a perfect circle of
shoots at its base. Think of it like a natural leafy
prison… and the ring was locked inside.
Enter Greenwood Detecting—and shoutout to Ed
Trapper for tipping us off about this mystery! 👏
Armed with a trusty detector and a pinpointer, we
carefully scanned, probed, and dodged some overly
enthusiastic squirrels. After a tense half hour and a
LOT of leafy rustling, there it was—the ring, perfectly
wedged in the center of its shoot-jail hideout.
🎯 Score one for the good guys.
✅ Ring recovered.
🌿 Shrub undisturbed.
🤯 Physics-defying ring toss? Still under investigation.
Whether it’s a backyard or the middle of Manhattan, if
your jewelry takes an unexpected detour, Greenwood
Detecting is here to bring it back.

🎯 Lost in the Lawn, Found by
Greenwood! 🌱💍
Over Mother’s Day weekend, one family was having the
perfect backyard bash—cornhole, playing catch with
the dog, and celebrating the amazing moms in their
lives. But in the middle of all the fun, one dad looked
down and realized his wedding ring had vanished into
the green abyss of his lawn. 😱
Enter Greenwood Detecting! 🕵️‍♂️🔍
Thanks to a heads-up from our friend Ed Trapper
(shoutout and high-five! 👏), we got the call and
headed to the scene. After some careful scanning and
a few suspenseful beeps, we struck gold! The ring was
right there, nestled in the grass exactly where the good
times had been rolling.
✅ Ring recovered.
✅ Crisis averted.
✅ Backyard memories saved.
Another happy ending thanks to the magic of metal
detecting—and a good referral. 😊

🔍 Lost in Translation but Found with Precision: A Wedding Ring Recovery Story 💍
We recently had one of those unforgettable metal detecting adventures that prove the power of determination and a bit of luck!
A man accidentally dropped his wedding ring out of a window, and it vanished into the grass below. To make things even more interesting, he spoke only Ukrainian, while our metal detectorist only spoke English. 🌐
Despite the language barrier, we were united by one clear goal: finding that precious ring. With a few pictures of where the ring might be, hand gestures, smiles, and nods, we set to work. The detector beeped, and after a bit of digging through the grass, there it was—the lost wedding ring, safely in hand once more! 🎉
This experience reminded us that sometimes, no words are needed when it comes to helping people. A shared mission, a bit of patience, and a lot of focus can overcome any obstacle. Whether it’s language differences or the challenge of finding a tiny ring in a big yard, we’re always up for the adventure! 🌟
If you’ve lost something important, don’t let anything stop you from getting it back. We’re here to help, no translation needed!

🌟 A Heartwarming Recovery: Lost Wedding Ring Found with a Metal Detector 🌟
We recently had the privilege of helping a gentleman recover something incredibly special: a lost wedding ring. 💍
After a lovely dinner, one of our clients was tossing his keys to his wife when, by accident, his wedding ring went flying along with them. Unfortunately, the ring was lost in the grass of their front yard. Despite the best efforts to locate it, the ring was nowhere to be found. That’s when he reached out to us.
Armed with our trusty metal detector, we carefully scanned the area, determined to reunite him with his cherished symbol of love. After around 20 minutes, the detector beeped—there it was, nestled beneath the grass! The look of relief and joy on his face when he saw that ring was priceless. 💍

Lost Gold Cross in Rutherford NJ…. Found!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)

⚾✝️😁I spoke to Dan about a gold cross his son lost at baseball practice. The cross belonged to his wife’s father and was passed down to his son. The cross was very sentimental and the whole family was eager to locate it. We made a plan to meet at the ballfield the next day. Good thing his son had a really good idea where he had lost it in the infield. He explained that he knew he had it running to first base and by the time he had walked back to the dugout it was gone. I started my search on the first base line and within 30 mins I got a 6-8 signal on my Nox. Sure enough, it was the cross!! Another happy ending, I love being able to help people located items that mean so much to them! 😁 ✝️⚾

Lost Earring Cedar Grove NJ…. FOUND!!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)
🍂🦃Shout out to John Favno, The South Jersey Ring Finder, for this lead!🦃🍂

John called me on Monday about a hunt that was just too far from his location. He gave me Dana’s number and I called her when I got off the phone with John. Dana had lost an earring while putting up her Christmas decorations. She checked to see if her earrings were still in place, as she often does, and only the back of her earring was still stuck to her ear. She had been going back and forth to the garage getting decorations for her back deck and had lost it somewhere along the way. She searched high and low and was only able to find the earring jacket. Her neighbors also came over to help hunt with a searchlight and still no luck. When I arrived on Thursday, she showed me the area she had been working in and also showed me where she found the jacket. It was a SUPER difficult hunt because there was tons of competing metal in the area, landscape lighting, paver barriers, and a ton of other stuff. So, I had to use my small 6-inch coil and go really, really slowly to rule out all sorts of other stuff. Thankfully after about 30 minutes of searching, I was able to locate the earring in a small pile of rocks and return it to Dana. It was probably one of the best starts to a Thanksgiving ever!! 🙂

Lost Ring Short Hills NJ… Found!!!

  • from Millburn (New Jersey, United States)

This hunt was a good reminder to always ask the right questions before I start my search! Amit called me Saturday night about a ring he lost while doing yard work. We made plans for the next morning to search the large leaf pile he made and also a few other areas of his yard. After searching the leaves and the yard with no luck, I thought to ask if he was wearing gloves or if he had checked in his jacket and pants pockets. And, sure enough, the ring was in his gloves!! So happy he was able to get his ring back! My detector skills were only able to rule out locations this time which was helpful in narrowing down the hunt area and ultimately helped point us in the right direction to find the ring.
