Lost Gold & Jewels Wedding Rings at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:


This ring hunt began when I got a text from my wife. In the text it said to call Jeannie from Sausalito, California. When I called Jeannie she told me while she was snorkeling in the lagoon she was holding onto a buoy safety rope and as the current pulled on her both of her wedding rings came off and fell into 10-15 feet of water. When she got ashore and told Aloha Security they gave her my number. My truck was already loaded with scuba gear so I told her after eating my lunch I’d meet her at the resort. At the resort Jeannie showed and explained to me where the rings came off so I donned my scuba gear and proceeded to the buoy line. As I was snorkeling over a local couple were snorkeling in the area and when I approached them they said « Are you looking for something? » I responded a gold wedding ring and the young lady spotted one from the surface and dove down and retrieved it. I gave them a description and they handed over the ring to me. I still had to find the other one so I started my underwater search. Their were many coin and garbage targets and I even found a Silver Hawaiian style ring. About 30 minutes into the hunt I got a nice low gold tone and two hand scoops down was the other matching ring. This ring was under a small sand dune. When I got ashore I told Jeannie I found 3 rings and hopefully two of them were hers. When I pull them out of my catch jar a look of relief came over Jeannie’s face. Jeannie & her husband were in Hawaii for their anniversary and she felt so bad having to tell her husband she had lost both of her rings. Thankful for the honest couple and that I found the other one. Aloha to Jeannie!

Lost Hierloom Ring in the Snow .. Crestline, CA. .. Found four days later

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

Thais contacted me asking if I would be able to help her find an heirloom diamond ring that was passed down from her husbands late mother.
Discussing what happened on the phone she said, that the ring was on a necklace. They had made a trip to Crestline,CA. to see the first snow fall of the year with friends that have never seen snow.
Thais was certain that the necklace had broken at one of four stops they had made to install tire chains. It is now four days after the loss and is about 80 mile drive. The snow has already melted possibly the ring could have been pushed to the side of the road with snow plows? It’s a long shot but worth a try.
They sent me PDF maps of the 4 locations.  So I started my drive, just as I was leaving, Thais and Jesse texted me that they decided to drive up to meet me, which would definitely increase their odds of finding the ring.
They arrived 10 minutes before I got there.. Thais walked over to a place that she had been playing that day she lost the ring. Guess what? On the edge asphalt parking lot right in plain sight was the priceless heirloom ring. Thais found it just as I pulled into the parking lot. She said they had given up but after talking to me they had hope to try, which worked this time.
My take on this.. « Don’t give up, just before the miracle happens »

Lost Celphone in Sand .. Balboa Penensula, CA. .. Found

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

Mark and his family are vacationing here in Newport Beach from Northern California. They rented a four person bicycle surrey that they peddled down the boardwalk to an isolated area of the beach.
His son was showing how he could jump off the 5 foot embankment and after a few minutes realized he had lost his iPhone. The family went to the local merchant buying a couple plastic shovels. After two hours the Celphone was not to be found.
They returned to their hotel where Mark searched the internet finding my contact information on TheRingFinders.com. When he called me, I was excited because this sounded like an easy search. I checked the tides which were still low enough to attempt a search before salt water might damage the Celphone.
I was at the location within 30 minutes. It was about 8:15 when I spotted the plastic shovel that Mark had left in the sand. I got two large signals that could have been the phone. The third signal was the Celphone more than 14 inches in the sand. It’s not wise to use a sand scoop to retrieve phones, digging with my hands it still was hard to find after having heard a good metallic signal from my detector.
Mark and his family were staying 3 miles from where I live. It was no big deal to take the phone to them. Mark had the phone in his hands less that two hours after he contacted me.

Wedding Ring Lost doing Yard Work .. Van Nuys, CA. .. Found

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

I received an email from Rebecca..

Hi Stan
My name is Rebecca and you were recommended by Jeffrey of ring finders.
I’m in Van Nuys and my husband has lost his wedding ring. He had been doing lawn work and was also on the roof putting up Xmas lights and it’s obviously come off and we’re seriously frustrated because it’s no where to be found so we need some help!
Thank you for your time.
– Rebecca
…………….

I was able to get to their house a couple hours after talking to Rebecca and Chris called me from work explaining his activities on that Saturday.
After arriving I searched the front yard, backyard, tomato garden and three containers of leaves with no success. Chris was leaving work early to double check the roof while it was still light outside. Before leaving I offered suggestions as where they may search for the ring. Searching for a ring is a process of elimination. I felt confident when I left that the ring was not in the areas that I searched. As I was leaving, I asked Rebecca if she would let me know if they found the ring.

Sorry I don’t have any photos to show. I’m posting this because it feels good to get a text from Rebecca and Chris, thanking me for helping them.
…….
She text me a half hour later::
Chris found it! It was on the roof, hidden under a pile of dirt and leaves! Thank you so much for helping us today.

Julie called me last evening requesting my service to find her VW key fob and office keys! lost while she was snow blowing her driveway! I told her I would meet her at her home first thing this morning and of course the weather changed overnight with temperature -4 below and blowing snow which would make the search a little harsh.

Met Julie she showed me where she had been shoveling and blowing snow around her home within 10 minutes I found her keys in the back alley behind her garage in about 6” of snow, Julie was very happy to have them back in her possession once again.

Lost Gold & Diamond Engagement Ring at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:



This ring find began when I got a frantic call from Samantha from Sydney, Australia. While she was playing with her child on the beach her Engagement ring at some point fell off. She was in a rather confined area but she wasn’t exactly sure when or where it exactly came off. I was at work but told her I’d have my wife Wendy bring my Excalibur II metal detector to my work then I’d be right over but it would be at least 45 minutes because its just over 30 miles away. Samantha assured me she’d wait on the beach until I arrived. My wife delivered the Excal in record time and I got on my way to the resort. Samantha met me on the beach and explained it was her 6th Anniversary and her husband who was in the US Navy was deployed. She was totally devastated that she had lost the ring. I told her I was very confident we would find her ring. I asked her to hold my pin-pointer until I had a target. I wanted her to regain her composure and helping me would do just that. First target in the sand was a bent piece of aluminum. As I was getting towards the center of the grid I got a real nice tone. I asked Samantha to hand me the pin-pointer so I wouldn’t knock the diamond off her ring. Surprisingly it was her ring and it was at least four inches into the sand. She must have stepped on it while looking for it. Tears of joy started streaming down her face and Samantha was obviously so shocked her ring was found so quickly. These are the best hunts. Quick & painless. Aloha to Samantha!

Lost engagement ring in Orlando, Fl….Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Jason called Thursday morning to see if I could help him find his wife’s lost engagement ring in some bushes at their apartment complex in Orlando! I asked a few pertinent questions to help determine where the rings might be hiding and if there was a good chance they could be found. Jason briefly explained what happened and mentioned that Amber, his wife, had actually lost both her wedding and engagement rings. And after a frantic search they were able to find the wedding ring but not the lost engagement ring! He went on to say that they contemplated renting a metal detector but then found theringfinders.com web site and decided to give me a call.
I reassured them that I would get there ASAP and that the chances were very good of finding her lost ring.
The actual area where the rings landed was small but full of various types of bushes, shrubs and decorative grassy types of plants. One of the grounds crew had actually used a leaf blower to try and remove some of the loose mulch to expose the lost ring, but may have actually blown the ring deeper into one of the bushes. I began my search along the sidewalk and investigated every possible signal using my Garrett pro pointer. I uncovered a variety of items and only 10 minutes into my search I got a great pull tab signal and brushing the leaves aside–there was Amber’s lost ring. I called the young couple over to see what I had found and it was a thrill to see their reactions and the smiles on their faces as Amber bent over and picked up her precious ring! It is always a great pleasure helping reunite a lost ring with it’s rightful owner!
Lost your ring? Call ASAP!

Lost gold pendant in St. Augustine, Fl…..Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Bill was taking his little nephew for a ride on a small four wheeler and as he stood up to get off he noticed his heavy gold chain was unlatched and his special « Road Runner » pendant was gone. This pendant was given to him by his late father 30 some years ago as a very special gift. Bill immediately started looking for it and spent hours searching thru the long grass and sandy areas where they had unloaded and ridden the four wheeler. A few days later they used a metal detector and tried and still were not able to find Bill’s lost pendant.
Not wanting to give up, Bill searched the internet and found theringfinders.com web site and gave me a call. I arrived in St. Augustine three hours later and began my search. If the pendant was there I was determined to find it. Bill’s wife Kerri had shown me the large area where the pendant was thought to have been lost, so I set out a few markers, said a short prayer and began swinging my DFX. Bill came an hour and a half later, just as it was getting dark and we talked and searched by the light of his cell phone. Another hour passed and then I got a great signal and there just under the dead grass was Bill’s 14k gold Roadrunner pendant! You talk about one happy young man!! And thanks allot Bill for the reward and I am so glad you gave me a call and that I was able to find your lost pendant.
Lost something of value and want to see if it can be found? Call or e-mail me–ASAP!

Lost wedding ring New Smyrna Beach, Florida…..found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Last November 3rd I wrote a short story about Shawn loosing a ring at New Smyrna Beach and how I was able to find it for him. Come to find out that his good friend Zack, lost his wedding ring that very same day, at the very same beach! Shawn, Zack and another close friend had taken a day off to relax and as they finished their lunch at the Breakers Restaurant they decided to throw the football around in the shallow part of the surf. (Does this story sound familiar?) The third friend decided to remove his wedding ring and leave it in the car, despite the lighthearted objections of Shawn and Zack. And guess who ends up loosing their rings?
So after returning Shawn’s ring to him that evening, I find out that Zack had lost his ring as well! That next day I was able to return to the beach and after a one hour grid search–a little to the north of where Shawn’s ring was found–up pops Zack’s wedding ring. Three guys at the beach and two of them loose their rings! What are the chances? And the best part of the whole story is–they both got them back! And I am still waiting for Zack to send me his photo–so in the meantime–my smiley face will have to do!
Lost your bling? Give me a ring!
