Wedding gold band recovered at end of dock

Contact:

Received a call from Clint this morning about how he lost his gold wedding band in Verona area (North of Kingston). He explained that while climbing down a metal ladder at the end of his dock, his wedding band got caught on a steel bolt, nearly taking the skin off his finger. This is when the ring got ripped off his finger and fell into the lake.

Having Google mapped the location, I grabbed my trusted Excalibur II water metal detector, and all of my Scuba gear and headed his way. within a couple hours I met with Clint, discussed and assessed the situation and dove to find his ring. Being in only about 8’ of water, the bottom was your typical mix of silt and sand, with zero visibility once you start stirring the bottom up. However, after having a few false hits due to metal chains holding the dock in place, I heard that unmistakable sweet gold tone and was able to narrow my search using my Garrett pin pointer. From there, you just go by feel, until you feel the gold band between your fingers.

Needless to say, Clint was extremely happy and surprised that I was able to find it for him. Glad I was able to reunite him with his wedding band. Another happy camper.

Gold pendant lost for 11 months, found in Richmond Virginia!

June 18th, 2021: Recovered a gold pendant missing for 11 months in Richmond, VA.

Ashley lost a delicate 10k pendant almost a year ago while having a family celebration in her yard. She had given up on finding it, until she came upon my contact information on TheRingFinders.com. The pendant has a great sentimental value for Ashley as it was a gift from her mother, and could not be replaced.

After arranging a date and time, my son Matthew and I arrived at Ashley’s and she provided us a detailed account of the activities from the party.

There were two areas where Ashley’s chain may have broken. One area was around a portable pool. The other possible search area was where she and her guests had played human bumper ball. Both areas are on the side of the house. Matthew and I set up search grids and combed the area. We found several targets which sounded like 10k gold, but no luck.

After a couple of hours, we expanded the search area toward the back of the house. A few minutes later, I heard Matthew say those wonderful words, “Dad, we found it”!

Uncovered!

As you might imagine, Ashley was elated and we all celebrated a joyful outcome to the search.

Surprise!

Reunited

*** Donnie called me while he was driving to a local sporting goods store to buy a metal detector. His son Cameron had lost his cell phone at Newport Beach the night before. The phone was important because it had a special photo of Cameron’s mother who had past away recently. The photo was inserted into a custom phone case and there were no duplicates.

I was just finishing a search less than a mile away from the location he told me the phone was lost. It was an Iphone that was still transmitting its location on the lost my phone app. I told him,  I could find the phone and could meet him within twenty minutes. 

I finished up what I was doing and we both drove up to the site at the same time. We walked out on the beach and the phone showed up soon after I turned on my detector swinging for about twenty feet. They had spent almost two hours trying to find the Iphone by hand searching before calling for help. I saved Donnie the cost of buying a detector and probably a lot of frustration. The phone was actually in wet saltwater sand that most inexpensive hobby detectors can not handle. It was a pleasure to be available to help them.. They were so thankful, and I could tell this photo meant the world to the both of them.

Tiffany & Co. Gold La Pousette Stud Earring Back Lost in Backyard.. Tarzana, CA. .. Recovered

*** Laura lost her Tiffany & Co. 18k Gold  La Pousette earring back in the grass. The loss occurred when she decided to remove her diamond stud earrings so her new playful Labrador puppy wouldn’t accidentally pull the earring loose. She knew exactly where the loss happened but she could not visually see the small backing.

I got a call from her because she believed her only chance to find it would be a metal detector. I had a short discussion with her, explaining the complications of finding small gold items with hobby metal detectors. We agreed that I could meet her at her home that afternoon with my detectors that are set up for small gold items. We still wouldn’t know what the search conditions would be like till I arrived at the location. She would have a matching piece of the gold backing, so I could test my equipment for a signal in the soil conditions of her backyard.

Two of my detectors and two different pinpointers had decent signals. I did get a weak signal in the grass with both detectors, but couldn’t get either pinpointers to give me a signal. The small backing must have been on edge or possibly there was something making the signal from the pinpointer? After some frustration, I decided to carefully scratch through the grass catching a small glimmer of the white gold. Boom! Successful recovery.

I’ve never heard of a La Pousette earring backing so after I returned home researched them on line. They are the the most secure backings for expensive diamond stud earrings. As I understand, some of the most expensive are sold as set ( post and backing). Over the past years of finding jewelry for people, I’m learning a lot about jewelry.

I was looking forward to helping Laura find this small piece of gold. Also, knowing it was going to be a challenge. Laura was appreciative to see how difficult the search was. She was glad that she didn’t buy or rent a metal detector for a Do It Yourself Search.

Lost Gold Ring Found In Flint Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Return To Sender……

…..Got a call from Terry, a postman who said his ring fell off somewhere on his route. I told him I was certified, insured and offered special handling along with same day deliver of the lost item. Sensing the priority, I airmailed myself to the ZIP code in question. Arriving at the curbside I turned on my MXT metal detector and began tracking the lost item. Scanning his mail bag and cart revealed nothing. Developing a sort plan, we decided to begin at an address block and start the clock. Scanning the curb strips and grass areas covered quite a few homes. Nearing the end of the route the tracking number came in on the call window of my tracker and revealed a match. Reaching down in the grass revealed Terry’s lost ring! With delivery confirmation confirmed, Terry was thrilled with the handback service and that a change of address wasn’t needed. A picture for the post card followed.

Lost Ring in Gainesville VA – Found! (June 2021)

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)
Contact:

Two days ago, Lee contacted me after finding the RingFinders on the internet while researching ways to find his lost ring. It all began earlier that day (on his anniversary actually), while he was tending to some plants on his back deck, Lee tossed a handful of debris over the railing and into the woods… an his wedding ring flew off his hand during the process. He, his wife, and his neighbors spent hours searching the yard and woods but couldn’t find it; that’s when he turned to the internet.  He was hoping to find a quick tutorial on which metal detector to buy and how to quickly learn to use it; he discovered it was not that simple as there are various machines and it takes a while to learn what the tones and numbers are actually saying. But he did learn how easy it was to contact a RingFinder, so he sent me a text with some details and we set an appointment for the next day. Once I arrived, Lee walked me through where he was standing, how he threw, and where the plant debris landed. It wasn’t long until I heard the magical tone, pushed some grass to the side, and saw the shine of his ring.

Happy Anniversary Lee, glad to see your ring back on your finger!

Diamond and Gold Solitaire Engagement Ring Lost in the Sand at Santa Monica Beach…Found and Joyfully Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Steve’s Emergency Metal Detecting Service For You if you lost a ring or something precious to you. Please don’t wait until tomorrow, time will work against you, please CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, CALL NOW! 310-953-5268

I received a call from Molly while on my way home from picking up dinner for my wife and I. Molly had lost her gold solitaire engagement ring in the sand, and was hoping I could find it for her. I asked if she could wait at the spot a little while so I could eat my meal, and I would leave immediately after, and she agreed that would be fine. I then proceeded to wolf down my meal in order to get on the road, because I know how disheartening it is for someone to lose something very precious to them, and think it might be lost forever. When lost, the story of the ring stops, and we help to continue the story. I also know that we as Ring Finders offer hope to people. I let Molly know when I was on my way.

When I got to the beach Molly and I found each other. She proceeded to show me what had happened. She also had wisely marked the spot because the tide was coming in, and washing over the area making it all look the same. I began, and received a good signal believing I found the ring, but only brought up a piece of aluminum. I continued the search, and then received another good signal, dug, and had Molly’s ring in the scoop. I pulled it out, and gave it to her, and which point she became very emotional. I could see how much that token of love meant to her. I was so happy to restore her joy!

 

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible! I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again. I search, Beverly Hills, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Malibu, Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Northridge, Pasadena, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Seal Beach, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Torrance, Venice Beach, Zuma Beach, and all parks, yards, gardens, and ponds (to 5 foot depths) in all of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County, Southern California, and Ventura County.
