Lost Tungsten Ring w/ Gold Accent Found in Oak Park Michigan

Scoop The Goop….

Was the last chore of the day for Preston at his new house. Climbing the ladder, he reached the leaves on the roof and gutters full of goop and began flinging it to the ground. His wife assisted by raking it out to the street. With darkness encroaching, he finally completed the task. Back on the ground he took off his gloves and went into the house for the night. Immediately upon sitting down he noticed his ring missing. Rushing out in the dark to search brought no luck. Feeling totally drained and down the gutter he wondered where it was…in the street? in a gutter?..and having changed gloves often, what side of the house was the ring on? The next morning, I started my search and checked the piles of leaves in the street with my MXT metal detector. No signals came from that, so I grid searched towards the house on the side Preston remembered having the ring on last. Again, nothing signaled thru on the detector, so I searched a bit further out in the area where Preston had laid the ladder down to retract it. Suddenly a huge signal rang in my headphones. Reaching down thru the neighbor’s leaves revealed Preston’s handsome hammered Tungsten ring! I waved him over and when he saw it, I saw all the tension drain away from the situation. Totally pleased he asked what made me check in the neighbor’s yard? I answered, I just go with the flow!

Lost — 14 kt gold engagement ring with diamond – Samsula, Fl, — FOUND!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Just as my wife and I pulled into our favorite taco place on Friday, my phone buzzed. It was Diago. His voice was somewhat desperate—he’d lost his girlfriend’s engagement ring, and he needed help.  He and some friends tried to locate it but it was hopeless.

We’d barely parked, the restaurant still minutes from reopening at 5, but I knew the sun was slipping fast thanks to the time change.  So, we left.  As we did, I prayed for God’s favor.

I met Diago at a roadside bar & grille. He pointed out exact the spot where the ring had flown from his hand. It vanished into a patch of tangled grass—short blades, long tufts, and a gloomy drainage ditch. His fiancée, he said, had been in tears.

I fired up my Minelab Manticore, and instantly the machine chattered incessantly – bottle caps, pull tabs, scraps of who-knows-what.  I adjusted my settings, grabbed my pinpointer, and pushed into the grass as daylight drained away.

As darkness enveloped us, I swept every inch of the suspected area, the detector humming, my hopes slipping with the sun. Eventually, I had to turn to Diago and tell him the last thing he wanted to hear: I’d be back at sunrise.

Praying again, I arrived before dawn the next morning. The grass heavy with dew. I started scanning in a slow grid, determined not to miss a thing.  Then—a clean, bright tone!

I dropped to my knees, brushed aside a patch of grass, and there it was: a beautiful gold ring nestled so perfectly in the blades that anyone without a detector would’ve walked past it a hundred times.  God is good!

Later that day I placed the ring back into the hands of an overjoyed couple.

If you’ve lost a ring, keys, or even your phone—whether at the beach or in your backyard—don’t give up hope. Call Detector Ed at 757-419-0299. I’m available day or night. Call or text me as soon as possible—and please, don’t post about it on social media!

Lost Gold Ring Found in Saint Clair Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

He Was There for the BOOS…

and the trick or treats but when Halloween was all said and done, Mark’s ring was missing. Pulling a graveyard shift into dead of the night he didn’t want to turn into a pumpkin, so he stopped searching. Did the ring come off while passing out candy? Did it fall into someone’s candy bag? Or did it fall off earlier that day doing yard chores? He was spellbound by the eerie disappearance and got a toy type metal detector hoping that would work but perhaps brought about bats in the belfry trying to use it after no luck with it. Playing the devil’s advocate, I said there’s more than a ghost of a chance I’ll find the ring if it’s there in your yard. I started a grid search after finding out the area Mark was during the day. A few sweeps of the metal detector coil off in a grass area revealed his ring! I held it up and said here’s your boo-tiful ring! He said thank you and that he was scared stiff that the ring would not be found. I ghoulishly smiled and said I had a scary good time!

Lost Rose Gold Engagement Ring w/ Moss Agate Stone Found in Davison Michigan

Courtney’s Nightmares…..

About her lost engagement ring have been haunting her for a while. Ever since last September at her sister’s Labor Day gathering reoccurring thoughts day and night overwhelm her as to its whereabouts. When will these dark thoughts stop troubling her? How long will its location be cloaked in mystery? Or will the spiritual power of the rose gold and agate stone help return it and reunite her with the new beginnings in her life? The night was dark as a velvet carpet and as she travelled to her sister’s place for Halloween, she began to have premonitions of finding her ring. Arriving to find a bonfire and trick or treaters lifted her spirits. Around the witching hour, as she sat next to the dwindling bonfire she drifted off into sleep. In a dream a man appeared with a machine that howled as he passed it along the ground. He reached down and exhumed an object and walked towards her. Placing it in her hand she was startled awake by her sister shouting BOO! trick or treat… while nudging her asking if she was ok. Courtney said yes and excitedly exclaimed that she found her ring. Where? How? the sister asked. It was here, next to the fire, I fell asleep and a man with a metal detector handed it to me! I didn’t see anyone out here the sister said and added, ok enough of the spine-tingling stories can’t you just creep things real??  Courtney said, believe whitcha want but the ring can finally rest in peace on my finger where it belongs, how’s that for a scarytale ending!

Lost — Wedding ring with diamonds, Deltona, FL — FOUND!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

This past Saturday, I got a call from a young man in distress. His wife had been out in the backyard, tossing a ball to their playful Weimaraner, when she suddenly realized both her rings were missing.

My wife decided to come along with me, and before we set out, we said a short prayer that we’d be able to find them. By the time we arrived, the couple had already been searching frantically. They had managed to locate the engagement ring on a backyard trampoline, but the wedding ring was still missing.

When I fired up my Minelab Manticore, I immediately realized the yard was full of targets—signals coming from all directions. I started by scanning the area where the first ring had landed, methodically expanding my search each time.

As daylight began to fade, I finally got a strong, promising signal. I looked down—and there it was: the beautiful wedding ring, nestled in the grass, far from where anyone expected it to be.

I called the young man over and pointed to the ring’s resting place. His face lit up with pure joy! My wife held the ring for a quick picture before we returned it to its rightful owner.

If you’ve lost a ring, keys, or even your phone—whether at the beach or in your backyard—don’t give up hope. Call Detector Ed at 757-419-0299. I’m available day or night. Call or text me as soon as possible—and please, don’t post about it on social media!

Lost Gold Pendant w/Sapphire & Diamonds Found in Huntington Woods Michigan

Third Time’s A Charm……

….Kate had just finished a 1-mile bike ride with the children and when she got home her pendant and chain were missing. Their destination was a community center building where they parked the bicycles and hung out in a small park area under some trees.

1st search with the family covered the route from home to community center building but yielded nothing.

2nd search included 2 teams of people working towards each other from the house to community center and yielded some results when the chain the pendant was on was found by a planter near where they stopped under the trees at the community center building. A week later Kate called me with what had transpired but had to go out of town on business and turned the case over to her husband Dan.

3rd search included me, Dan and the children. I thought it best to start metal detecting in the area under the trees at the community center building. Luckily no one had raked up the fallen leaves yet. Grid searching a tight pattern revealed no signals on the metal detector and searching the planters revealed nothing….so I thought…. where could this pendant be? I took a break and went to the restroom, when I came back out as I was opening the door I noticed what looked like a paper clip sticking up from the deep grooved, thick rubber floor mat. Taking a closer look, I reached down thru the deep grooves in the mat and there was Kate’s pendant! Dan had been just a few feet away when I held it up for him to see. He came running over and was as baffled as I was as to how the pendant got there. He called Kate who was totally thrilled and couldn’t believe it was found but said she didn’t go inside the building because it was closed when they were there. We both did another double take at the small 1/4″ long pendant and pondered in silence to take in all the events that transpired. The most important thing was that the pendant was found and being the third time trying was definitely a charm for Dan and Kate.

Blades of Glory…

As Larry was mowing the grass for the last time this year he was emptying the bag into some compost piles. Hours later he noticed his ring missing. Back at work the next day his wife Cindy texted me the information on the disappearance. Setting up my MXT metal detector I told her this detector will bring lawn and order back to the yard. Scanning the detector coil thru the compost piles I got a nice solid signal. Reaching thru the pile with my pin-pointer I got a location and pulled out Larry’s ring! Handing it to Cindy I held my detector coil up to the brim of my hat to say goodbye and she said thanks for the cutting-edge service…. I said, my pleasure, it’s been a lawn time coming.

Lost Wedding Ring – FOUND! near State College, PA by Metal Detector Specialist Brian Carpenter – Call 814-244-2300 ASAP for help with your lost item!

  • from Indiana (Pennsylvania, United States)

Lost your ring, other valuable jewelry, cellphone, keys, or other metal object…call or text Brian Carpenter at (814)244-2300 as soon as possible. I am a ring recovery/metal detecting specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…

I was contacted by Matt to see if I could help him locate his lost tungsten and gold wedding band. Matt said he had lost it in his yard cleaning up leaves. This is a common occurrence this time of year. I told Matt I would come out and we agreed on a day and time. Later I would find out that Matt lived three and a half hours away from the property to be search. It added a little bit of pressure as this was a significant time investment on his part.

I met Matt at the property and got the scoop on what happened. Matt was full of good news, the ring was mostly black, it could have been in a variety of places from in the yard to the wooded areas behind his house, he had cut the grass at some point and there was a large area in the woods where he had actually spread the leaves out by hand rather than dump them and leave them in big piles. He was really upset by the loss as he had only been married a short time before this happened. Matt also informed me he had bought a metal detector and invested significant time in trying to locate the ring using the detector. Unlike many people I have to give Matt credit, he invested in an Garrett AT Pro, the same detector I usually use. He had also spent some time doing research and had some knowledge in how to use it.

I looked around and taking all of the information into account was beginning to believe I was in for a VERY LONG day. I asked Matt where he thought it might be and he put me onto a few places he had dumped stuff in the woods behind the house. I started to look getting some directions from Matt – you are up too far, over this way some, yeah that is where I was. Then Matt went down the hill to look on his own. After about 10-15 minutes I was working my way down the path to search another patch of woods and I got a sweet sound. I did not see anything though. I got out my pin pointer and rooted around the side of a tree branch that was across the path. BAM! I moved some of the leave pieces and dust out of the way and there was the ring tight up against the branch. I felt a huge sense of relief. Matt had cleared a portion of this area from the leaves but the dust and pieces that he left behind were just enough to keep it hidden from sight.

I called Matt up from where he was searching. Without telling him that I found his ring I placed it on the ground and told him when you find your ring this is what it will sounds like. Matt started to run his detector over the spot…then it hit him…it was HIS ring. He picked it up and was overjoyed and in disbelief that I found it both where I did and so quickly. I was amazed as well, a little devine intervention if you ask me, St. Anthony strikes again.

It was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client and recover his lost ring.

I was contacted by Kai to inquire if I could find his ring after it was lost during an event at the university. He said he had lost it in a grassy area between some of the buildings the night before.

I arrived and looked at the area to be searched. Pretty standard grassy area and Kai was certain it was in a specific spot. I started to seach and within 10 minutes I was able to locate the ring in the grass. Kai was very happy to get his ring back and as always it was great to meeet another kind and generous client and recover his special keepsake!

He verbally told me where he had been and I was able to be at the location before he arrived at the beach. One of the things he told me, was he had wagon to haul the beach gear to the towel line.  When I arrived, I saw wagon tracks across the sand. I followed the tracks and could see finger drag marks in the sand.. A couple minutes later my detector gave me a great signal and I scooped up Nathan’s ring before he got to the beach. I wish all the searches could be that easy. Nathan called a couple minutes later and I gave him the good news.
