I received a text message in regards to a lost ring at third beach in Stanley Park. I was on my way to another church where I have to spend the night until the water level was down low enough where I could do the search correctly and that was until 5 AM, I called the people heard the story and told him I’d be there as soon as I found this ring in White rock in the morning as it made no sense to drive all the way back to Vancouver to search for the ring then come back to White rock is my vehicle cost over $200 to fill the tank, they said perfect.

I found a bringing white rock by 8 AM and I was on my way to Vancouver to search for their ring. When I got halfway there I got a text message saying someone was there with him Metal Detector helping them look for it, I was just waiting for them to text back and say it was found, but the person did not find it. I arrived, met the young man, and he showed me the area where his wife lost this beautiful, sentimental ring.

I started my search and after an hour and no luck I continued my grid as it was very trashy area. I knew I had to dig out most of everything and by doing so I found her beautiful ring!

 

The story of this ring was told the centre diamond, and two other diamonds were from each great grandmother, and also one grandmothers gold that went into making this beautiful engagement ring. The generations connected to. This is beautiful, and I was so happy to be able to continue the story for one day to be passed down to their son or daughter

Lost Diamond Ring Found in Rehoboth, Delaware.

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I am here in Ocean City meeting my member Mr. Brian Rudolph to interview and do my doc-u series… »Found It »

I asked him if he had any searches he had not recovered the rings, he said yes, one in Rehoboth Delaware, so we met there to give it a shot.

This was a tough search because it was lost at low tide in waist deep water, if you’ve never detected in the Atlantic ocean you wouldn’t know how difficult it is, being pounded by 2 to 3 foot waves.

This man is relentless, he goes to any length to help someone. Low tide was late afternoon and as he was getting pounded by the surf, I was working the wet sand in amongst people and got very very lucky..I found the ring! Brian was just as happy as I was to see that ring and know that it was going back to its owner. We figured out the surf must’ve pushed it in land more because this was not the area she described it being lost in. I’ve had a lot of fun on my travels meeting amazing members and lucky to have returned 3 rings back to the happy owners on my travels.

Lost Sapphire Ring, Virginia Beach…Found!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I’m in Virginia Beach with the Gigmaster, Mr. Steven Andrews. Steven gets a call from frantic lady who lost her beautiful emerald ring at the beach, we race out to look at the location and unfortunately they had fenced off the area, getting ready for the BeachIt country music festival. Unfortunately, we had to call and tell her that the search area was out of bounds for the next 7-10 days.

There was another factor in this story… they had pushed up the sand from the area she’d lost the ring and made one long 4 feet mound about 100 yards long to separate the ocean from the concert area and the ring would’ve been buried most likely. Flash back seven days later at night around 12:30 AM. I went there just to search the concert grounds and was asked to leave due to liability reasons, as I was walking off the beach I noticed this with the area the lady had mentioned she lost her ring and within minutes, I found it.

This was truly a miracle, so much going against us and so lucky to be in that area and sweep my coil over it. I reached out to the local news station wavy 10 and they came out and did a story on the return… I of course set it up for the surprise factor!

It was such a fun time in Virginia Beach, I’m sad to go. I met a great member and friend Steven Andrews, who has helped me a lot on how to work my YouTube channels and get more content out there for people to watch. This whole trip has been amazing meeting great members and I appreciate everyone for what they do and also for being so kind to me along my journey.

Found & Returned 24 karat Gold Ring/Virginia Beach

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I’ve been driving across America for the last two months shooting my doc-u series on my members and people they have helped. I’m in Virginia Beach now with the gig master Steven Andrews. We get up early one morning to go search the beach after the  »BeachIt » Country music festival but we were asked to leave the area for safety reasons. So we started down the beach a little bit and I found a beautiful 24 karat gold ring with a heart on it. Someone came up and told me the guy over there who was detecting was looking for a ring. I caught up to him and he told me an East Indian lady had lost a gold ring, and he was looking for it.

I asked, did you know where she lived? He said no I think she was staying in a hotel here and she may be coming back to the beach later. I asked if he saw her to please tell her to call TheRingFinders, I may have found her ring.

My friend Steven Andrews and I headed up the beach and two hours later Steven got the call we were hoping for… It was the lady who had lost the ring, she described it perfectly, we met up with her and we’re happy to give her ring back.

This is my first recovery for someone on my trip and it felt so good to hand back that beautiful ring and see her smile… A big THANK YOU!! to the Detectorist who saw her and told her to call TheRingFinders.

How to find a lost ring in the river…

I received a call from a stressed out young man who lost a very special ring that was gifted to him by his girlfriend, he asked if I could come right away to help, but after asking a few questions and learning it was lost in the Fraser River and the tide was coming up, I knew I wouldn’t be there in time to help him as I was over 2 1/2 hours away.

After I checked the low tide table, we planned on meeting the next day at 4:30 PM, we met on a nice sunny day. The tide was out and he showed me where he was on the beach. Luckily, he had made a visual reference an exact spot where he was skipping stones when he felt his ring come off. This makes a huge difference as it puts me in an area I can focus on, some people do not do this, and it could take hours for us to come in and guess where they were standing in order to locate the item.

I had him pick up a rock and show me the way he skipped it, I was able to determine the direction his ring would’ve come off and it was pretty close to the area, it only took 10 minutes to find his beautiful ring. That was a gift from his girlfriend, this ring was her late grandfathers ring, and you can imagine how both of them felt when it was lost. He was very surprised, and very relieved when I held up the ring to show him.

 

 

 

 

Every Ring has an amazing story attached to it and I’m so honoured to be able to help continue these stories!

Metal Detector Rental North Vancouver

Why rent a metal detector when you can hire a metal detecting specialist, this will save you lots of time and ensure success in the end. This story is about a young man by the name of Andrew who lost his wedding band while doing yard work. I wonder how many people have done this in the past and have given up the search, thinking they will never find it. This search was interesting. It wasn’t too labour-intensive two locations and it was found in one of the likely locations in the front yard under a bush that he lifted up and shook a bit.

The thing was it was out of sight and it required me getting down under the bush with my handheld pin pointer to do the search as I couldn’t reach it with the metal detector. As I was on the ground, searching the leaves and dirt I spotted it under some roots and leaves in a position where I would never have found it with my metal detector. I love this job, it’s like being a detective. You have to think out-of-the-box and go to places that you’re pretty sure you won’t find it, and then you do. It’s a Murphy’s Law kind of thing, it’s going to be in one of the toughest places to find and that’s where you have to check.

 

 

 

Andrews anniversary was coming up in April so it was an honour to be able to find it and reconnect him with his beautiful ring.

Why rent a metal detector when you can hire a metal detecting specialist…

I recieved a call from a young man who told me he had lost his wedding ring on the side of the street possibly in the snow. He was inquiring about my services, he told me he had rented a metal detector and was going back to look for it,  I just said when you’re done and if you can’t find it, call me and I’ll be happy to come out and find it for you. He said he looked for close to four hours the day before, and he would put it away and wait for me to come out as he was pretty much done with the rental detector.

I adjusted my day switched a search over and headed to his location as it was more important because it was in a public area where somebody may be able to find it before I got there, even though there’s snow, it could’ve landed on the sidewalk or road for anyone to see. When I got there, I met William and he told me his feelings on where the ring should’ve been and I could see his spent a lot of time searching in the area as the snow was almost completely melted where he had been looking.

He had to go back to his place so I started to search and just before I got going a young lady stopped with her kids and asked me if that was a metal detector. I said yes and I was out there looking for someone who had lost their wedding. She said do you make house calls and I said absolutely, she told me that her husband had just lost his wedding band the night before making a snowman for his kids in the backyard. I told her that once I was done finding this ring I would head on over to her place to find her husband’s ring.

Back to Williams lost ring…After 20 minutes of grid searching I found the ring in an area where he did not look, it few backwards quite a distance into a hedge where it wedged into the leaves and dirt hidden from view. It was so nice to surprise him with his ring when he came back, and it was a beautiful ring with mountains and a diamond for the sun or stars very unique… He was such a nice young man, and loved his wife so much. It was such an honour as they all are to be able to find and reconnect these people with these beautiful and sentimental items.

While I was on a search in Maple Ridge, looking for a young man’s wedding band a lady and her kids were walking by and asked me if that was a metal detector, I said yes and that I was here helping a young man who lost his ring in the snow. She asked if I do house calls, I said absolutely, she told me her husband lost his gold wedding band the other day in the backyard making a snowman for the kids. We exchange numbers and I told her I would call her as soon as I was done finding the ring I was looking for. The ring was found and I made contact and was off to meet her husband Matt and search for his ring.

When I got there, Matt was waiting outside to show me where he was making the snowman and where he believed his ring would be, it didn’t take very long and I found his beautiful gold ring while he was on the phone with his mechanic. This was my opportunity to fake him out and surprise him with his gold wedding band. I absolutely have so much fun and love my job more than anything I’ve ever done, just to see his smile and how much it meant to him to get it back. I wish I could’ve been doing this for 50 years.

Late last night I received a text message for help in regards to lost gold ring.  He said he was inside his vehicle, opened his window and was wiping the snow away when his ring came flying off his finger. I quickly phoned the young man and got more details and we decided to meet early next morning as it was snowing pretty hard that night.  When I woke up, I was surprised to see how much it did snow but I shovelled myself out and managed to get there on time. After close to an hour-plus of grid searching in the area that Colin believed his ring would be, I ended up finding it directly behind his truck and closer to the road where someone could’ve easily driven over it and it could’ve gotten caught in a tire and driven away.

This search was similar to a recent recovery where a young man was in his truck and the same thing happened,  I found that ring behind the truck as well and not beside it where he also thought it would be found. It’s all about the flick factor! It was nice find that beautiful ring and get it back where it belongs!

How to find my lost ring…

I received a phone call yesterday in regards to a lost diamond ring, we talked for a little bit on the phone and I asked a few questions and the young lady was honest enough to tell me she got mad and threw the rings out the front door. These are never moments you’re proud of, but they happen more than you know and the most important thing is finding that ring and getting it back to them. We met up this morning and she showed me the areas where the rings were thrown. She told me husband found the other rings and earrings, but could not find the engagement ring, there was snow on the driveway at the time that was shovelled off to the side, that was a possibility, also a hedge in front of their front door that she threw them in the first time, but he found all of them so he thought.

I searched all along the side of the driveway in case it got shovelled off to the side, but no luck. I then took it to the hot spot, the hedge in front of the door, and within 45 minutes of detecting and moving all the dirt from underneath the hedge onto a piece of plastic I was able to locate the Beautiful diamond engagement ring. I could tell how much it meant to her to get it back and how happy she was, I absolutely love my job.
