Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Radnor, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

James got in touch with me via the Ring Finders directory after losing his white gold wedding band while at a football practice at Radnor High School in Radnor, PA. I met James the next day at the field and he told me he is the coach of his young son’s football team…he was in the middle of the practice and tossing the football back and forth when he felt his ring come off. He didn’t see it fly through the air but felt it come off for sure. He borrowed a friend’s metal detector to try to find it himself but no luck, He decided he needed the help of a pro…hence the call to me! James was pretty sure of the area of the field where it came off….probably a 30 square yard grassy area. In my experience with these kinds of recoveries where it comes off when throwing something….its quite unpredictable where the ring could’ve flown to. I proceeded to cover the area in a grid like fashion….almost like mowing a lawn…and thoroughly covering every square inch of the search area. A gold ring on the surface has a unique signal on my detector so while I was getting a lot of signals none suggested his ring. About 20 minutes into my search…BOOM… I finally got the signal I was looking for. The grass was quite deep so I had to push the deep grass aside…but after doing so there it was!!!! Don’t think James believed me when I first said I found it….he was so happy and relieved when I handed it to him! I was very happy to be able to get his ring back to him!!!

Platinum Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Penn Valley, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Leonard found me in the Ring Finders directory after he lost his platinum wedding band in an elementary school playground in Penn Valley, PA. He spent hours searching for it before reaching out to me for help. I met him the next day at the playground and he explained that due to some recent weight loss the band had become quite loose on his finger. He was with his son and wife at the school’s playground and had his hands full with all kinds of kids stuff when he figured the band must have slid off his finger. He spent the majority of time and was quite convinced the ring fell off in the mulched area of the playground but he also thought maybe it fell off during his walk back and forth to car. I started with a quick scan of entire mulched area of playground….then took 20 minutes and scanned the entire walking path to where his car was parked. Leonard was hanging with me and looking with his eyes as well….we were both convinced it must be there somewhere. After about 60 minutes I was ready to suggest to him we should wrap it up when he told me he dropped a pretzel very near/under a long aluminum bench along the border of the playground. I obviously didn’t check there since a huge metal bench would interfere with my metal detector…we grabbed both ends of bench and moved it 5 feet away…and I proceeded to detect that area. BOOM! I got the beautiful surface ring signal on my detector I had been hoping for! I looked down and there was his beautiful ring! I think I whooped and hollered and scared Leonard! I told him I found it….and his smile said it all! I was very happy to find Leonard’s ring for him!!!

Strawberry-Patch Ring – Fond du Lac, WI

  • from Menomonee Falls (Wisconsin, United States)
Contact:

With winter approaching, Matt was spreading a protective layer of straw over his strawberry patch near Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. That’s when his 14k white gold wedding ring slipped off his hand in the cold. Despite renting a metal detector and searching through the straw, the ring could not be found. It was like the proverbial needle in a haystack.

Like many people in Matt’s situation, the rental of a metal detector can end up being a frustrating experience. The ground was full of metallic debris, leftovers from nearly a century of farming. Matt’s experience with the rented machine was similar to that of others. His ring remained in hiding and he wondered if he would ever see it again. That’s when Matt found me on The Ring Finder’s directory of metal-detecting specialists.

I met up with Matt late in the afternoon, just before sunset. He led me to the wire-mesh and net enclosure where the plants were protected from deer and birds. Setting up my XP-Deus ll equipment, it wasn’t long before my earphones were telling me the story of long-discarded metal objects in the ground. Little wonder Matt’s rented machine proved futile. Newer, state-of-the-art technology, however, triumphed over the obstacles. It only took about 5 minutes before a conductivity signal in the range of mid-grade gold flashed on my controller. A pin-pointer quickly located the target beneath the thick layer of straw. I let Matt pull away the straw to reveal and retrieve his precious ring. The smile on Matt’s face tells the rest of the story and shows as I’ve said so many times, “It’s more than a ring!”

Ring Recovery in the Dark at Newport Beach by Stan the Metal Detector Man

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

 

 

Call now for prompt Metal Detecting service .. I can answer any questions you have about how this service works. We can determine if we have a chance to find your lost metallic item. Call or text … Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

*** We found it! I say that because, Cheyenne and the internet were responsible for the successful recovery of her gold class ring. She had been at Newport Beach late that afternoon  staying long enough to watch the sunset. Her ring slipped off her finger into the dry soft sand. She only spent a few minutes trying to find it before realizing she needed help.

She did an internet search for ideas to get help. After finding my contact information, she called me. I was able to make the short drive that evening, meeting her at the location. Another thing that helped find her ring in a timely  manner was, she was able to stay at the location. Many people leave the location of the loss making it difficult to get back to the general area.

Minutes after meeting Cheyenne a quick grid search with my high end metal detector, I was able to find her very sentimental class ring. Unlike others that spend hours and sometimes days searching for their lost item in the sand without help, Cheyenne did the right thing, find a experienced metal detector expert. The right tool for the job with a person experienced with search techniques to find small metallic keepsakes.

 

Call now don’t waste your time and don’t worry about possibly losing your cherished sentimental keepsake forever.. I WILL TRY ANYWHERE.. Searching for a lost item is a process of elimination.. We can do it!!!   Stan ..949-500-2236

20 Day Old Diamond Engagement Ring Lost, Recovered and Returned in West Chester, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Every woman’s nightmare???….3 weeks post engagement and your ring is missing!!! Maddie is the 3rd future bride that while engaged contacted me looking for help locating a lost engagement ring. I’m proud to say I’m 3 for 3 in being able to recover those rings! Maddie found me in the Ring Finder directory after her ring came up missing after her daily horse ride at her stable in West Chester/Downingtown, PA. I met her the next day at the farm and she told me prior to riding she put her ring in a small side pocket of her riding pants…the same pocket she keeps her phone in. While riding she took her phone in and out of her pocket several times….suggesting the ring probable fell out then. Alternatively, she thought maybe the ring fell out in stable following the ride while cleaning/grooming her horse…and the ring got shoveled up and out with all the hay and horse poop. When I first arrived I first scanned with my metal detector the 10 foot x 10 foot manure pile by the stable….I didn’t want to spend the hours scanning the riding ring if it might be right there in the poop pile…but nope…not there. Maddie then walked me out to the riding ring…the circular area was probably around 50 yards accross and she told me she pretty much criss-crossed the entire area on her ride. I decided to just start in middle and work outwards walking an a circular pattern with my metal detector…scanning outward and outward. 30 minutes into the search I received the beautiful surface gold ring signal I was hoping for….I looked down and there was this gorgeous white gold diamond ring!!! Maddie was standing 10 yards away looking down and slightly sad…I made a noise to get her attention and held up her ring!!! The visceral joyful relief on her face is what I live for!!! I was so happy to be able to reunite Maddie with her beautiful ring….I wish her the best in her life and her marriage!!!!

Sentimental Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Philadelphia, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Clifford contacted me through the Ring Finder Directory after losing his tantalum wedding band at a school playground in Philadelphia, PA. He texted me and asked if we could discuss my services and the details surrounding his lost ring. In speaking with him he conveyed he was supervising the children on the playground while his ring was in his pocket…he believed the ring probably fell to the ground after he took his phone in and out of his pocket several times. He noticed the ring was missing while still there but the grass was quite deep and the area where lost was large. He figured his only hope was a metal detector…hence the call. I met him at the school the next day and he showed me the area where he was standing when the ring was lost. School was in session at the time so I had quite an audience looking on! Like most school yards trash was abundant so my machine was very noisy and I had to hyper focus on only stopping for a « surface ring » signal unique to my detector. Well after about 20 minute of searching I finally got the signal I was looking for….after bending down and pushing the high grass aside….there was Cliff’s beautiful band! Cliff had to go to work so he wasn’t present when I found…I immediately texted him a picture of his ring…and received « My guy! You are awesome » text back! I was happy to leave the ring with one of his coworkers to get back to the rightful owner!!!

Class ring missing 50 years returned Wauconda, IL

  • from Trevor (Wisconsin, United States)
Contact:

A few months ago, I got a call about looking for a ring in the water of Bangs Lake in Wauconda, IL.  The catch was that the ring has been lost since the 1970’s.  Long story short on that ring but I still have not found it yet.  What I did find was a class ring from the class of 1967 and luckily the ring had initials on the inside and all the details of the school were visible.  The school was contacted and the yearbook was found and the alumni program had contact info for the owner of the ring.

The story of the ring in a nutshell.  Guy gives ring to girlfriend in 1968 as a promise of a life together before he got drafted into the army where he served until his discharge in 1970.  Girl goes to beach for the day and loses ring in the water in 1968 and spent several hours trying to look through sand and mud in the water but was unable to locate it and had to give up.  Guy gets back from service, gets a stable job, they get married and are still married to this day.  I was able to meet up with them and get the ring back that they never thought they would see again after 55 years.

How to find a lost ring with a metal detector in Surrey, BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Vancouver Ring Finder Chris Turner- Ring Recovery Specialist…Lost your ring?… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP  Anytime   778-838-3463

I received a call from a young man who lost his white gold wedding band in the ocean at White Rock beach in Surrey, BC. After asking my typical questions it came up that he had rented a metal detector and search for two days but couldn’t find it.

I often wonder how many people rent or buy a metal detector and search but don’t find their ring and give up??? I’m sure this happens more than one can imagine.

He was determined to get his ring back so he went online to search for someone with experience using a metal detector, and that’s when he found TheRingFinders directory and called me. This search took a few hours because the young man was out of town and I was searching in the wrong area until I FaceTimed him and got the correct location. Within 30 minutes I found his beautiful white gold ring.

 

 

I have the best job in the world, I love helping people more than anything I’ve ever done in my lifetime. I get to make people smile, I get to hear their stories of what their ring/lost items mean to them and see how happy it makes them feel when I find it.
