Bindiya called me in desperation after she lost her 14 karat white gold, 2.5 carat diamond engagement / wedding ring with .35 carat accent diamonds on both sides of the band’s bridge.

The client found me on the THE RING FINDERS website, an elite international directory of specialized metal detectorists.

Bindiya shared that she lost her precious ring sometime in the past couple of days prior to calling me. She remembered coming home with it but then at some point she looked down and the ring was not on her finger any longer. The desperate woman searched everywhere in the house but all of her efforts led to no avail.

Eventually, she looked online for help to find her irreplaceable keepsake. As soon as I started talking with the young lady, I began asking every question possible. I asked her where the garbage was and if it was already picked up by the county. Bindiya explained that she had already looked through the garbage and then placed the bags back in the can and wheeled it out to the end of her driveway for pickup that day.

I immediately told my client to take the trash can back up to the garage and wait for my arrival. She didn’t think there was any way that the ring could have ended up in the trash because she had already thoroughly looked through the garbage bags just in case she had discarded the precious piece of jewelry in the throwaways.

When I arrived at the Asburn, Virginia residence, Arjun (Bindiya’s husband), took me through their house and showed me all of the places that his wife had been around during the time of the ring’s disappearance. I immediately started to probe the furniture and metal detected clothes and other important objects in multiple rooms throughout the large beautiful home. After a couple of hours, I was pretty convinced that the ring was not in the house.

At some point, Bindiya returned home with the children and I gave her a summary of all of the places that I had searched but with no positive results. I even asked the children what they remembered on the evening when the ring was identified as missing. One of the kids thought that her mother opened the trash can under the sink to discard some food from the evening dinner. It was at that moment that I insisted that I should inspect and metal detect the bags of garbage that I requested Bindiya to remove from the curb earlier in the day. The garbage was the last place that needed to be searched before I would have to call it quits.

I went out to the garage, retrieved all of my necessary equipment to do the search and then began metal detecting every piece of trash that was in the suspected bags. Once I finished the first white trash bag, I began metal detecting all of the contents in the second plastic receptacle. Bindiya, Arjun and his brother restlessly watched over my investigation in the cold garage, hoping that my hunch in finding the beautiful piece of jewelry would be correct. As it turned out, my suspicions turned out to be 100% accurate! When I reached the bottom of the trash bag, I metal detected all of the contents that were mixed in a pile of coffee grounds. It was there that my handheld metal detector began to beep and there it was! My eyes beheld the most amazing looking diamond ring just « swimming » in the mixture of all of the black grounds and miscellaneous pieces of rubbish!

The family went crazy the moment I revealed my incredible recovery! This irreplaceable sentimental ring (which also had a tremendous monetary value attached to it) would have been lost forever at the central city dump had it not been for my strong advice to my client to bring that trash back to the house! That was the advice of an experienced RING HERO and I am so proud to share that this amazing ring was yet another sentimental keepsake rescued from the snares of the county’s trash incinerator and horrific dump site!
