White Gold Wedding Band recovered in Trippe Creek in Easton, Maryland!

  • from Baltimore (Maryland, United States)

Success once again! This time my buddy and I found ourselves back in the water looking for this target. I have to be honest, after 20 minutes or so of searching this creek bed I really thought we would be skunked for the first time since joining The Ring Finders. The bottom of the creek was not only muddy, but it was extremely SOFT! So much so that every step we took put us 6-9 inches deep in the clay-like bottom. What was worse, when we went to scoop a potential target, we sunk another 6-12 inches! It was like searching in quicksand. One slightly off scoop attempt could push the ring down into no man’s land making recovery impossible at that point. We decided a few minutes later that we would give it another 20-30 minutes and admit defeat if we were unsuccessful at that point. Luckily, a few more minutes of searching I got a good audible signal and made a very careful scoop attempt and……..well, I’ll let Denise tell you her story!

Up the creek!

 

My son was kayaking with my nephew in Trippe Creek near our house in Easton, Maryland.  Men will be boys, and they started cutting up and tipped over the kayak. His wedding ring (which should have been sized better) slipped off his finger in 4 or so feet of water.  He could not find it.  He was in serious trouble with his wife and was quite upset with himself.

 

The next day I searched online to find someone who had equipment for us to buy or rent or perform the search for us.  I found The Ring Finders website and called the person with the address closest to our home and it was Jim.  He agreed to come out on Sunday with his friend.

 

He asked us to try to narrow the search area as much as possible.  So, when they arrived on Sunday we had lined up my mom who had witnessed the incident and with my son on phone (he had already returned to his home out of state) we outlined a search area. The guys were patient, polite, and friendly. They were thorough in the search, and after almost 45 minutes in the water, Jim found the ring. Even they were amazed to find it, as it was in the muddy floor of the creek in almost 4 feet of water.  I would highly recommend to anyone as Jim says, they have 100% success rate.

A happy Denise!

Lost Wedding Ring in the Ocean at Jericho Beach, Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

 I got a call last week from a young man who I learned is from Peru and he told me that he had lost his wedding ring in the ocean at Jericho Beach in Vancouver. He felt pretty sick about the whole thing but he did something not many people do and that is make a note of the location where he lost the ring …This is a great thing to do as it gives me a chance to narrow down the search area and concentrate in a smaller area. As you can only imagine how hard it is to find something so small in such a big ocean makes it a bit of a challenge.   Floyd met me at the beach the second day and showed me the approximent area and that helped tremendously as I was in the wrong area the first time out.This morning I was determine to get out there at low tide and find that ring for the young man. After 3 hours and hardly a signal I got what I was looking for…a great signal… As I scooped up my target I saw that beautiful yellow colour that I was visualizing the whole time I was out there.I have the greatest job and my office is always amazing. It was nice meeting you Floyd and I was thrilled to be able to help you find what you thought was lost forever. I love my job!Lost Something?Call me ASAP! Watch the video of the search on the link below…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V_u_P2wjcc

Lost Gold Ring at Simco Park in New Westminister, BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Over two weeks ago I was in touch via email in regards to doing a search at a park not to far from me,  for a lost gold band. Because of both of our schedules we didn’t meet up until this evening.

When I met with David he told me the story of where he thought the ring might be, but he wasn’t sure if it was there or not, as he felt someone could have found it or maybe it was lost some where else.

 

 

We discussed the search and I started to do my grid with the hope of finding his ring. This Ring was given to David by his father and he was going to wear it when he gets married this December.

I was into my grid search for 30 when I got a good hit on my V3I, I bent down with my pinpointer and after I moved the grass I could see the outline of his gold ring…

 

 

I was so happy that it was found and I called David and his girlfriend over and I have to say I have the best job in the world! I get to make people smile and I love it.

I Love My Job!

Lost Something?

 

Call me ASAP!

Lost Palladium Wedding Band at a Baseball Field in Vancouver, BC…Found!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I was driving home from two earlier searches when I received a call in regards to a young man’s lost wedding band that was made out of palladium.

The young man told me that he lost it the night before and searched with some friends but didn’t find it. When I showed up at the park there were kids everywhere…Summer soccer camps and other events but that didn’t stop us for asking if we could search the area,  the coaches were kind enough to let us search…

 

 

After 30 minutes of searching in a high potential area that John felt the ring could be in, I moved to the fence where it made sense to John and I that the ring could be in that area due to taking off his glove after the innings…

 

 

 

There it was in the long grass not far from a dirt patch and I was delighted to see it looking back up at me! You see John was just about to leave to go back to work, so the timing was perfect to surprise him! That I did…

 

I love my Job!

Thanks for the kind reward John!

15% of all money I make from my rewards goes to Children’s Hospital

Tungsten Carbine Wedding Band Lost at Spanish Banks Beach, Vancouver…Found!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Well it started with a very late night at work and I didn’t get to bed till 5 ish and around 7:15 am I awoke to my phone ringing…I picked up the phone and heard a young man’s voice ask if I was The Ring Finders guy, I said yes but I think I thought I was dreaming still. After a few seconds I realized this was a call for help. I jumped out of bed and gathered my equipment and was on my way to the beach to help find a young mans wedding ring that was made out of Tungsten Carbine.          It took me close to an hour to get there and when I met the young man he told me the story about how he lost his ring and I was sure that I’d find it for him. There was two couples that were at the beach parking lot and hanging out (8am) and helping him look for his ring. One couple made me a nice cup of coffee and told the young man to come back in the morning as he did (5am) to search for the ring. When he couldn’t find it he got online and found  »The Ring Finders » and made the call.   After he showed me the area where he’d searched for his wedding band I could see where he’d been looking in the sand as you could see his finger prints all over the sand. He told me that he was married for 4 years and that the ring was very special to him…It only took me a few minutes to find it for him and the smile was priceless! I love my job! Lost something and need it found?Call me ASAP You can watch the video of the search on the link below… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-TsVdqNFJE

Lost Mens Palladium Wedding Band at Dewey Beach, Del. Found……….

  • from Lewes (Delaware, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from a gentleman regarding a mens palladium wedding band that had been lost on the beach. The ring was lost in an area of the beach that still had a large puddle of water from the high tide cycle and had fallen off the clients finger while he was running around the beach playing with his nephews. I was directed to the area of the lost ring and after starting a grid search, I recovered the ring on my second pass. I learned that the ring was very special to the owner as he and his wife had designed the ring themselves.  Another happy client!!   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Lost Silver Pendent at the Equestrian Centre in Vancouver BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

I received a call yesterday from a young lady that lost her silver pendent at her Equestrian Centre and was hoping that I could help. Of course I would! I met her today and she showed me where she thought it might be,  it was a large area and after a few hours I started to think maybe someone found it before me.

 

Another hour of doing a grid search and I got a nice loud signal that I was looking for and my detector showed me it was silver…And there it was just inches under the gravel…

 

 

I was very happy to see her silver hand pendent because I could tell she was pretty upset that it was lost and the fact that it was taking me that long to find it made her nervous I’m sure…I couldn’t find the silver chain as it was very thing and dainty but that could have stayed on her clothes for a while longer before it made it to the ground.

 

Thanks for reading my blog!

 

I Love my job! Lost something? Call me ASAP!

Best in Treasure,

Wedding Band Found at Woonsocket, RI, Home

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

I received a call today from a friend who knew I was a member of The Ring Finders.  He asked me to look for a ring for his stepdad’s mom, Cecile.  Cecile lost her husband about a year ago and has worn his wedding ring on her thumb ever since.  That is until yesterday when the ring was lost while she was doing yard work.  She was so upset that she looked for the ring until late last night with a flashlight and prayed to Saint Anthony.  After searching the grass in her front yard for about 45 minutes this evening, I found her husband’s wedding band.  Cecile was so happy to get the ring back that she cried and hugged me when she saw it.  She said she felt blessed, but not as blessed as I felt to have been able to return it to her!

 

 

Gold Signet Ring for 8yr Old found after 3 weeks

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

 

Hello from Don & Ellen Wilson in Dallas, Texas.  We got a call today from Mrs Bundy, her 8yr old daughter, Briar, had lost her Gold Signet Ring at the playground of the local Country Club.  We met at the Country Club and began searching the area where the daughter said she saw the ring fly off her hand.  She was playing Queen of the World by standing on top of a picnic table and threw her arm out like she was Queen. The ring came off of her hand and was lost.

After 3 weeks of searching by Briar, her parents, other family members and the Country Club grounds & Management staff everyone had given the ring up for lost.  Mrs Bundy’s sister in New York read an article about  « The Ring Finders » and told Mrs. Bundy she should check the website and see if there was a « Ring Finder in the Dallas area »  She did and found my wife and I.

After about an hour of searching we were about to call it quits when I asked the little girl to get back up on the picnic table and re-inact the event.  She did, then my wife said « no wait, do it again and close your eyes and do it the exact same way ».  Briar did as we requested and did it completely different than she had previously showed us.  This time I saw that it was possible the ring may have  flown in a different area of grass.  We began to detect this area and in 5 minutes the ring showed itself.  I called the little girl and her mother over and asked, ‘is this your ring’?  They were so excited and so grateful.

Another great day in the life of « The Ring Finders in Dallas,Tx »

God I love this hobby!

Don & Ellen
