Lost Rings…Found Cedar Rapids, Iowa
I was contacted by a woman who lost her engagement ring and wedding band while cooling off in about four feet of water at a city park.
She met me there today and stood in about the same area and I was able to recover both rings. It was gratifying to return her rings. I think she said the engagement ring was 50 years old and was handed down in the family.

Lost Car Key… Found In Williamsburg, Iowa
I got a call today to search for a single lost car key. It was lost several days ago in a snowy yard. The lady had rented a detector but couldn’t find it. So she found my number today and gave me a call.
Luckily I wasn’t busy so I got my equipment together and drove over. I can see why she had trouble with a rental, there were all kinds of junk targets and interference even after turning my sensitivity down. After awhile I did come across a nice shallow target that was her key. She was very happy to have it back.
Lost Ring Found… Williamsburg, Iowa
I found a ring today for the mother of a friend of mine. She was pulling weeds in her strawberry patch and garden and tossing them, the ring must have gone too.
It’s a different kind of ring because there is a latch on it. She hurt one of her fingers and this was a way she could slip the ring on her finger without more pain. Unfortunately the latch would catch on things and open.
It is a gold ring with three diamonds and she was very happy to have it back.
Lost Ring Found…In Cedar Rapids, Iowa
The other day a man named Bryce contacted me about finding his Grandmother’s baby ring. He thought it was around 80 years old. It was handed down to him for his young daughter. She was wearing it while playing outside and lost it.
I had to make two trips to find it, the first time I was rained out. The second trip I found it in their backyard under the swing set. It was a small 10k with a green stone. They were relieved to have it back.
Here is a short video of the find.
Lost Wedding Ring… Found Cedar Rapids, Iowa
I received an email from Lynnetia about her husband Aarons lost wedding ring. He had been trimming a tree in their front yard about two weeks ago and realized his ring was missing.
They then purchased a cheaper metal detector and found some things but not his ring. They then found me on the ringfinder site. I went to look for it yesterday and was happy to find it right by the tree.
They were overjoyed that it was found. It was a pleasure to help this nice young couple.
Lost Ring Found in Iowa City on St. Patricks Day
I got a call on St. Patrick Day morning about a lost ring from the night before. Charles was at a friends house in the backyard. He went to throw something towards the trees and his ring flew off.
So I arrived at 10:00 at his friend Brie’s house, unfortunately Charles couldn’t be there due to work. We had got a dusting of snow overnight so the ground was covered. She showed me the location where he was standing the night before.
I got my equipment together and was adjusting my detector as I was walking toward the area I was going to grid, when I got a very good shallow signal. Sure enough it was the ring. I was surprised when I pulled it out of the snow because I didn’t know it had so many stones on it or that it was so big.
Everybody involved was very happy that it was found. We all had a little Irish luck on this St. Patrick’s Day!
Lost Cell Phone… Found in Iowa City, Iowa
We’ve been getting some snow here almost every day for a week and people are starting to lose things in it. I received a call from Zac about his lost cell phone. His friend Amy posted on her face book page about me finding her keys and so he thought he would give me a try to help find his phone.
We met on Jan. 25th in the afternoon at the park where he lost it. He had been sledding and playing in the snow when it was lost. He said he did an online search and the phone showed up in the park until the battery died.
We walked out in the snow to an area he thought we should start at. The second signal was his phone buried in the snow. He was very happy to have his phone back.
Lost Keys… Found in Iowa City, Iowa
A woman named Amy contacted me about her lost keys. They were lost in her alley area after she helped a neighbor get his car unstuck from the snow. She thought they may have fallen out of her coat pocket when they were shoveling snow or pushing the car.
I arranged to meet her on Jan. 25th in the morning. When I arrived she showed me the area where she thought they could be. I started the search on one corner of the area and almost immediately got a decent signal.
After moving five inches of snow there they were! Thanks Amy for posting on your face book page because I was able to help a friend of yours recover his cell phone that same day.
