Property Pin located in West Kelowna BC

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

June moved into her West Kelowna home 1 year ago, now it is time to start renovations, starting with a fence. However it is not a new home and the Survey pins are hidden, June found me on « The Ringfinders » and gave me a call for assistance. I responded the next day with my Metal Detector. the lot is an odd shape so the backyard was difficult to locate, the front yard had a large tree on both fronts, the one on the left was overgrown, the one on the right was large but groomed back. I stated searching by the utilities and Water shut off. A few old targets, but no pin so I moved around the supposedly neighbours tree and there it was 12 inches away from the tree. Now June can get a lot blueprint and measure from that pin.

Hierloom Gold Diamond Pendant.. Lost in Grass .. Fountain Valley, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 


*** Finding a gold diamond pendant in the grass at a public park can be challenging, especially in the dark. Celine called for help to find her sentimental pendant that was a gift from her grandmother and she has worn it everyday for years.

It was dark when I received the call. Celine told me she was in a Fountain Valley neighborhood park with her dog. Her dog playfully jumped up with its paws braking her gold necklace. The pendant flew off into deep grass.

During our conversation she asked if she could meet me the next day after she got home from work.  I would rather meet her as soon as possible, so I could get the location pinpointed. If it didn’t show up in the dark. I could resume the search the next day while she was at work.

I met her with her neighbor  and his metal detector. He was unable to locate the pendant. My equipment was able to locate the pendant shortly after I started the grid search. I’m sure the neighbor could have found it, but she had him searching the wrong location. This is more common than most inexperienced ringfinders know. It always important to ask the important questions. Celine was more than happy to have her pendant back.

I also took time to show her neighbor  that his detector would have found it if he was in the right location.

Ring Lost Doing Yard Work: Recovered by Rob Ellis, Fairfax, VA.

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)

Kathy contacted me to help locate her one-of-a-kind wedding band. She lost it in her backyard over a month ago while doing yardwork. This work included covering her rose bushes for the winter. I gathered my rake, grid search lines, heavy gloves, detectors, and headed to her home.

The yard consisted of the area where Kathy cut the covering material for the rose bushes and a lower terrace containing the 10 rose bushes. Kathy showed me how she’d moved about the yard, trimming the bushes, cutting the covering material and pointing out other areas of the yard in which she worked. She took me to the place she transitioned from the lower terrace, climbing a 4-foot wall to the flat area where she cut the winter cover material. It took some time to gather the information, but it really paid off when I began to search.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I started at the spot where Kathy had climbed the wall. I turned on and calibrated my detector, swung it over the grass, and heard a clear gold tone. I found Kathy’s beautiful ring as I completed my first swing of the machine!! This isn’t the first time I’ve found a ring right away. I give credit to luck and Kathy’s excellent description of her movements throughout her yard.

 

For my fellow detectorists:

Target IDs of this 10-gram, 14k gold ring: Deus 2=85, Equinox 800=21, Equinox 900=62.

Webster Groves Wedding Band

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

My wife lost her ring in the yard a couple months ago and we had lost hope after another metal detector said it might be a lost cause since our yard had so many random bits of buried metal. We were impressed by Jeremy’s experience and efficiency. Highly recommend! »

A Lost Treasure Found: A Heartwarming Search for a Cherished Ring

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)

Sometimes, even the smallest objects can hold the deepest meaning. Recently, I was called upon to help locate a sentimental treasure—a wedding ring lost during a joyful moment in the yard.

It all started when I received a message from someone whose wife had accidentally lost her ring while playing with their dog. We coordinated a time for me to visit and assist in the search. Arriving a little earlier than planned, I noticed an area of the yard where the grass had been raked—a sure sign that others had already been combing through for clues.

With my equipment in hand, I began my search, methodically scanning the area. About twenty minutes in, something caught my eye before my detector even alerted me—it was the ring, glinting in the grass! Relief washed over me, knowing this cherished item was found.

As I worked, I couldn’t help but notice the watchful eyes of the neighbors. It became clear that this was no ordinary lost-and-found mission; it was a community effort. The neighbors shared in the anticipation, having spent the previous evening searching themselves.

After finding the ring, I walked back to my car and shared the good news with one of the neighbors, who was just as thrilled as I was. Moments later, my client arrived, greeted by smiles from all around. His joy was palpable as he approached me, asking, “You have something for me?” Handing him the ring, I could see the gratitude in his eyes. His heartfelt thankfulness was echoed by his daughter, who was overjoyed that her mother’s ring was back where it belonged.

This experience reminded me of the power of a community coming together and the significance of sentimental treasures. It wasn’t just about the ring; it was about the memories it represented and the love it symbolized. Helping to reunite this family with their precious memento was truly an honor.

 

   

Sentimental Silver Ring Lost in Sand .. Orange County Beach, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Mobile metal detecting at your location.. Stan 949-500-2136

** This was the second time that Erin had called me for help finding a lost item in the sand. The first time was unsuccessful as she had been many other places the day she lost a bracelet. I could only eliminate the beach sand area.

This time Erin was positive her sentimental silver ring was on the beach because she had taken it off to apply sunscreen. Our problem was to get back to the general location. Erin could not meet me till later that afternoon.

I went as soon as I finished talking to her. I had a cross street name and my best clue was she had been near a volleyball court.  It was worth my time , because her ring was recovered in less than an hour. It was my privilege to find and return Erin’s ring. She was so excited and grateful to have her ring returned.

If you need help or advice about how to find your lost ring ? Call or text Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136 .. “I WILL TRY ANYWHERE” with or without you.

LOST SILVER WEDDING RING in FAYETTEVILLE, NC….. FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

So on my way back home from my Goldsboro, NC recovery, I get a call from a guy in Fayetteville, NC that lost his silver wedding ring in his backyard while cleaning up trees and debris 2 weeks ago.

I make the deture and head his way. Get to his house, we head to the back and I start my search! The ring is not foubd where he thought he lost it and where he had already found his copper ring.

I advise we backtrack his steps. We start from the point of where he had taken them off and placed into his pocket along with his keys. 15-20 feet from there in the middle of the back grassy area just off his back porch, I get strong hit and look down to shiny silver roundness!

Man I really enjoy this hobby and helping people get their priceless treasures back!!

Bill contacted me about doing a search at his property where his home had succumbed to the fire in January. He was most interested in finding his wife’s wedding and engagement rings. We arranged a day and time to meet, and I was able to go.

When I got there Bill was already at the property. I introduced myself, and began asking questions, wanting to know where the rings had been, and where he thought I should look. His wife was on the way, but we got started right away. Bill showed me the area where he remembered last seeing the jewelry box, and we ran an estimated area of the search. I donned my safety gear, and began moving the big stuff out of the way in order to get to finer debris. When Bill’s wife Lourdes arrived, she came over to say that I was looking in the wrong area, and that I should be looking on the other side of the room. She showed me where she believed the rings should be. and that’s where I began. It wasn’t that Bill was wrong because there was a jewelry box where he remembered, but what he didn’t know was that his wife put her rings elsewhere. Knowing where to look is very important in these searches. I began working through the debris shovelful by shovelful, and noticed that Bill and Lourdes had left. Not long after, I found the wedding ring and placed in a container. When they returned Lourdes came up and asked how things were going, and I showed her the ring I found. She got very excited and hopeful that the other ring would be found. About 15 minutes later I was able to find the engagement ring, which pretty much made their day. They had lost everything, but I was able to help them find a precious memory, and bring a little joy back in their lives.

I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again.
