Found Ring – Ambler, Pa

  • from Ambler (Pennsylvania, United States)

We received a text from Ali Behr last Sunday evening to say that her husband Colin had lost his ring earlier that day and could we help.  But of course, and we met them the next morning at 9:30 behind their house.  Colin informed us that he was disposing of rotting pumpkins back in the woods for the deer to eat and showed us exactly where he thought the ring had fallen off.  He barely made it back to the house when we located said ring.  Another satisfied customer of the AMDC.

Ring Found in Loveland CO after 2 years

  • from Fort Collins (Colorado, United States)

I was contacted by Ric about his ring that was lost 2 year ago. He wondered if  it was still possible to locate the ring. He told me that it was lost on private property and I replied that it was very likely that it could be recovered.

Ric, along with his wife Mary and I met at the farm. They did not own the property any longer but had been granted permission to search by the new owner. They told me that they had matching rings and it would be wonderful if we could find Ric’s ring. The area was a garden when they owned the property but had not been used lately and was somewhat overgrown with weeds. Ric was cautiously optimistic but Mary didn’t think there was much of a chance of success.

I broke the old garden into quarters and began a grid search of each one. The day was warming up and we had been searching for well over an hour when I had started into the last quarter.  Ric’s optimism was beginning to wane but I assured them both that it wasn’t over yet. A short time later I got a strong hit from a target at 2 inches in depth. With my small spade I dug down and came up with Ric’s gold ring. It always amazes me how gold can be buried for years and still come out so shinny. Ric and Mary were overwhelmed with joy at the successful recovery.  We all smiled and hugged, took some pictures and walked back to the truck where we shared our success with the land owner.

We said our goodbyes and I left knowing  that I had helped to give them a good memory to share and had put a smile on their faces.

14k wedding Ring Lost and Found at UBCO

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

Got a phone call from Nanoose, Harry a professor at UBCO lost his 18k gold wedding band 3 days ago throwing a football at UBCO. I responded right away in Kelowna, and met his secretary who directed me to the area where he lost it. His football partner also came to show me, I worked that area with no luck, then started to grid the location. After 30 minutes of gridding, I found the ring that once again had been stepped on into the ground.   Another Happy Customer.

Gold Wedding Ring Found – Chapel Hill!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a call from a nice woman in Chapel Hill (about 45 minutes away). She had been walking in a wooded park near her house when she tripped over a tree root and fell. She wasn’t injured in the fall, but a little further down the path, she noticed that her wedding ring was missing. She explained that because she had lost weight, the ring was loose on her finger, and that was probably the reason it had come off. She and a friend had looked all over the area and hadn’t found the ring – probably because the area was covered with fallen leaves.

We met at her house and she walked me to the spot where she took the tumble. Fortunately (and this is a good tip for any potential ring losers out there), she took her hair clip off and clipped it to a bush to mark the spot. Because she had done this, she was able to show me the exact root she tripped over. I turned on my detector and not only was the ring my first target, it was under my coil on my first swing. She was ecstatic to get the ring back! In our conversation on the way back to her house, I suggested that she look into getting a ring guard to help keep it on her finger. She replied that she had ordered one that morning!

Anyway, very happy to be able to get the ring back where it belonged. Another Happy Ending!

10K Wedding Ring Overboard! Recovered in Port Barrington, Illinois.

  • from Rockford (Illinois, United States)

Recently I got a call from Brian. He said that he found me on theringfinders.com website and that he had lost his ring the day before. He and a friend were about to dock his boat and while they approached the peir Brian put his left hand on the edge of the boat to reach for the dock with his right hand. As he did that his wedding ring slide off of his finger and into about 4 1/2 feet of water. They spend about an hour wading around in the water with a pool skimmer in hopes of scooping it up without any luck. So we set up a time for the following day to meet up. We met up the next day and he showed me which pier he was at and about where he thought that it was. So I grabbed my gear and headed for that area. And right where he was pointing I got a rock solid 12 VDI on the Nox. For whatever reason it took me a while to scoop up the signal. Brian asked if I wanted to skip it and look more to my left. I told him I shouldn’t give up on this signal because it was the perfect gold numbers. Finally after what seemed like forever I got the signal in the scoop! When I picked the scoop up from the water I gave it a couple of shakes and sitting in the bottom of the basket was Brian’s white gold wedding band!! Success!!

Wedding Set Found and Returned. Gurnee, Illinois

  • from Rockford (Illinois, United States)

I received a call from Sharita asking if I was available to do a ring search for her. We agreed to meet after we both got off of work. Her rings had slipped off of her hand into some thick, viney ground cover and mulch while walk in the dark. When her and her husband tried finding it they covered it up with some mulch under the thick patch of vines. I couldn’t get a good signal from my big detector because of the density  of  the ground cover. So I slowly went through all of the mulch and ground cover with my handheld pinpointer,  until I found them both!
It took me about 20 mins to find them.

Success! Another smile for the book!
