Lost Platinum Wedding Band In Los Angeles, CA Back Yard…Found.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

I got a call this evening from Shannon wondering if I would be available to find a ring for her boss Dave. I said I could leave as soon as possible. She would get back to me to arrange a time to meet him at his house. When she called back I knew I had to leave right away because of traffic, if I was to get there in a reasonable amount of time.

Dave was getting some professional yard renewal done which caused there to be mulch scattered into his swimming pool. He was going to swim a few laps, but wanted to clear out some of the floating debris, so he started scooping the mulch into his hands and throwing it back into the garden. It was then when he felt his ring come off in the direction he was throwing. The area didn’t seem too big so he began searching, but there had been a very generous amount of fine mulch placed in the garden that seemed to swallow the ring. Dave searched and was astonished that his ring was so hard to find, as the area of the loss was not that large. He then began an Internet search to try to find a way he could find his ring, and found me through The Ring Finders.

I realized that I needed to change my coil from the 11 inch to the 6 inch in order to maneuver in and around the plants, also to discriminate the different metals that were in the flower bed. There were speaker wires, and steel clips that held the sprinkler system that I had to deal with, so I needed the small footprint on my coil to be able to find the ring without it getting masked out by the other metals. In about 10 minutes using the detector and pin pointer, I was able to locate Dave’s ring, a ring he has had for 15 years now, found a little outside the area he had originally thought it should be. It was certainly great to see his joy returned, and the ring’s story continued.

If you lose your ring or other metal item of value, call as soon as possible. I will work hard 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, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Santa Monica, Seal Beach, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Torrance, Venice Beach, and all parks, yards, gardens, and ponds (to 5 foot depths) in all of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County, and Ventura County.

Comments from client: Susan Blake-Platon Thank you again so much for finding my Husband’s wedding ring yesterday! My husband Eric and I went to Cape May for the day to celebrate my birthday with the beach and an evening dolphin watching cruise. We decided to go in the ocean and Eric’s custom made wedding band fell off, we looked but it was hopeless. Eric and I were heart broken, being we just got married a month ago today. Many people at the beach were giving us suggestions then, a guy named Jamie was so kind to offer to take down our information because he said there is a guy that he always sees searching for lost item, Jamie waited to see Jeff and asked for his help and now we have the ring back! Amazing!! When we got the call we were in complete shock! The ring is found and the kind act of a random guy! So very grateful there are good people in this world

White / Yellow gold men’s wedding band recovered! (Ring #1) 7/20/2015

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)

This gentleman lost his wedding band (yellow/white gold) and glasses yesterday after a wave took him out. I took a spin down yesterday to see the general area and decided that it would be best to try for it during this afternoons low tide. After about an hr and a half I managed to snag it for him, another happy client! After picking this ring up I went for a walk along the beach since the tide was at a good spot and was flagged down by a gentleman who said that a couple had lost their wedding band in an area I was about to go into, got that one in about 5 minutes, luckily he had the couples information, I’ll post some pics after its reunited with its owners tonight! 2 birds one stone kinda day

Lost Silver Ring at Haleiwa Beach……FOUND

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

I was at our Summer family picnic on the North Shore of Oahu and brought my detector for a spin in the shallow water. I found two bling rings and a silver bracelet and was heading back to the picnic for some refreshments when I ran into Katherine and her husband sitting in the shallow water. As I approached I commented jokingly that they didn’t need to move out of my way unless they lost some gold. Katherine said, « Actually I lost my two leaf silver ring a little while ago ». She wasn’t sure when or where exactly it came off but I figured I’d see if the Excalibur could sniff it out. A few yards down the wave curl and I got a screaming silver tone and my scoop had to chase that tone about four times as the waves were crashing and throwing it about. I finally snagged the target and in my scoop was the two leaf ring. I yelled over to Katherine describe that ring again…Is this it? She gave me a huge smile and a warm Thank you. Aloha to Katherine.

Spent three weeks in the drink! 9/5/2014

The beach this ring was recovered from has a very steep slope and it is VERY rough during low tide. At high tide it is difficult to the sudden shallow water that causes the waves to come in like bombs. I have worked this beach at least 18 hrs total over the past few weeks trying to find this ring. So today I decided to take the family there with the hopes of searching during the « Mid tide » change and it paid off. The owner has been notified and was overjoyed as this particular 14k diamond ring was a gift from his mother for his 60th birthday. Persistance paid off in this particular situation!

Clients review of service:  A message from my Uncle Danny, » Jeff exceeded my expectations. i def thought the ring was lost forever.Thanks to Janet Westcott for being adamant to my wife to contact Cmp life guards and Jeff’s never quit attitude my prized possession was found.Thanks again Jeff for your persistence!!! »

I received a call last fall regarding a ring which had fallen into the Millwood’s pond. I was shown the approximate area and was told it would probably be about ten feet from the railing.

As I descended down into the lake I noticed it was full of garbage, pop cans, bottles and bricks, etc.etc. The water was a foot deep, and very mucky. I searched the immediate area and picked up lots of pop cans and pull tabs. AT pro was constantly beeping, however I had no luck finding the ring. I decided to leave and continue my search the following day. I returned and continued the search for another 3 hrs expanding my search to about a 30’x 30’ area. Again no luck.

I asked to be shown the area once more. I was told that they had been bike riding and with the force of the sudden stop the ring had flown off and that he had seen the ring fly. I searched again but did not find it.

This spring I resumed my search, but decided to wait until the water level in the pond dropped. I searched for another 4 hours. Throughout my searches I was constantly picking up garbage. People would stop and thank me for cleaning up their pond, not realizing that I was searching for a ring. After 16 hours of searching I finally found the ring.

Thank you for entrusting me and The Ringfinders to search for your ring.

How to a Find Lost Ring in Cape Cod Waters – Call a Ring Finder

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

Family members, water and rings have been not mixing well this month. My third call to search for a ring lost while playing with a family member was the most difficult due to so many targets in a small area. Confounding the problem was that I chose to use my largest coil for a quick recovery. A combination not wanted in an area filled with targets. After the previous two finds I was confident it would not take long…not to be. A little over an hour and on my third pass over the gridded area I found and returned the ring to Sean. Time for smile and ring photos to be taken.

Received a call for a lost wedding band yesterday. The ring was lost in the dry sand but close to the high tide line. Luckily, it was dead low tide when the call came in. I headed over and met Lindsay, the caller, and recovered the ring in less than 10 minutes.

How to a Find Lost Ring on Cape Cod – Call a Ring Finder

Fourth of July ended with the sky rockets bright glare and a bang, as I returned Alex’s lost and found wedding band. The band had been lost the day before and no amount of searching had found it. I was called and was quick to start a search. Not wanting to get my socks wet I started the grid on the ocean side, working toward the beach which had some drainage and the tide was coming in. The search went to the second possible area as detailed by Alex who had left for a birthday party. Not finding the ring, I had no other option but to hit the drainage run-off areas. Yep, there it was about an inch deep in the center of the run-off. My feet were wet, the ring came up, the sun went down and everyone left the beach and I headed for the party. I was greeted by a houseful of wonderful family members. Entertaining stories were exchanged and pictures taken as we watched a fireworks display beyond the back yard. A fitting end for a memorable day.

Diamond Earring Found on the 8th Floor Jasper Ave, Edmonton Alberta

I received a call from Charlotte as her diamond earring had fallen in the thick shag carpet of her apartment. Charlotte had spent several hours looking between the fibers of the carpet and had no luck. The earring had been given to her by her late father and therefore had much sentimental value, and so it was very important for her to find it.

I met her this morning, and explained to her that due to interference from wires, nails, and screws, the earring would be very hard to detect. I used my pro-pointer but could not detect it. I then got down on my hands and knees to see if I could feel it, but had no luck. Finely with Charlotte’s help, we managed to pick up the carpet, turn it over and shake it. I saw the earring land on the floor.

Another very happy client! Thank you, Charlotte for entrusting me and The Ring Finders to find your diamond earring.
