Parkway Groundcover Hides Lost Gold Wedding Band in Chino, CA- Found!

  • from Corona (California, United States)

Don’t delay in calling me! Time is of the essence!

I received a text from Harvey, asking if I was available to help find his white gold wedding band that was lost in the parkway in front of his house. When I got to his house, he pointed out the area of the parkway that he believed it fell off at, which was about a fifteen by six foot section between a light pole and a tree. Harvey said he had reached into his pants pocket to retrieve his car keys and upon pulling out his hand, he felt the ring fall off. The parkway has thick groundcover plants that are about 4″ thick.

I began sweeping the area pointed out with my metal detector, but failed to get a good signal. After re-sweeping the area, I decided to go beyond the tree boundary. About 2 feet on the other side of the tree, I got a strong signal and pinpointed it. As I squatted down to check the area, I immediately saw it just under the top of the groundcover, entangled in the growth.
Harvey was extremely excited that I found it, as was I!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lost Gold Wedding Band in the Fall Leaves of Moreno Valley, CA – Found!

  • from Corona (California, United States)

Don’t Wear Your Rings Gardening!

I received a call from Andrea who was quite upset. Andrea said she had been clearing the Fall leaves and weeds from around a bush in her front yard when she said she felt like one of her rings fell off. She checked, and her gold band had fallen off, but her other wedding ring stayed on. So she stopped right away and tried finding the band, with no luck. Andrea said she went online and found me on The Ringfinders website.
I drove out to her house and she pointed out the area where she had been working. I checked that area with my metal detector and Pinpointer but only came up with trash signals. We went through all the leaves and branches that she had put in a large plastic trash can, which was filled to the top. Still nothing.
I went back to the area she pointed out and checked a different spot and immediately got a strong signal. After clearing about two inches of leaves away, there was her gold band.
Needless to say, Andrea was very excited that I had found her ring in less than a half hour, and gave me a big hug! Another great call-out and recovery!

Yes a metal detector can find your lost gold ring in your yard, beach, park…That being said if you’ve never used one before you most likely won’t find your ring. Save you time and money and hire a metal detecting specialist with years of experience.

I have found over 500 lost items and I can’t count how many times someone had rented or bought a metal detector in hopes of finding their lost item. Experience pays off and that’s what we have on this directory, members like myself with many years of Metal Detecting experience.

I got a phone call from a young lady who said her husband had lost his ring somewhere in a garden area on the side of the road close to their house. After discussing the search, she mentioned his ring fit very well and they were confused on how it could’ve come off when they were looking for their Lost Keys. They went out and bought a metal detector and searched for hours, but could not find the ring. I showed up,  listen to the story and started my search. Within a couple minutes I found his lost gold wedding band. I love my job!  I might make it look easy but remember I have 53 years of metal detecting experience…It helps!

Missing Sprinkler Head Lost And Found In Wells, Maine, With A Metal Detector

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)

Not all recoveries are precious and sentimental jewelry. A surprise recovery of a sprinkler head that I wasn’t even aware was missing.

On Tuesday November 5th, I received a call from Linda. The previous Tuesday, Linda was doing yard work, specifically , using a leaf blower to blow the leaves, into a pile, towards the back of their property, in Wells, Maine. As she was taking the leaf blower off, of her back, she felt it hit her ear and snag something. She immediately thought of her Diamond Stud Earring and slowly walked into the house, to check the situation out. When she got into the house she heard something land on the floor and she then saw the backing, to the Diamond Earring. Linda then started checking her clothing and couldn’t find the earring, on any of her clothing. Linda searched the floor and surrounding area, where the backing had been found. Nothing. She also checked the leaf blower harness, still no luck. Linda continued searching, day and night, using a flashlight, outside, in the dark to see if she could catch a glimmer of the light, hitting the diamond. Nothing found. She then had a friend come over and search with his metal detector. Still nothing. This is when Linda called me. We agreed I would come to her home and search on Thursday, November 7th.
When I arrived! I was promptly met by Linda. She took me to the area, she thought the earring, may be at, in her backyard. Linda still had the other Diamond stud earring and I set the Minelab Manticore Metal Detector up, with the other earring. I was able to set the machine up and was receiving nice loud low tones, every single time. As I gridded the area, Linda and I would check out every non-ferrous target , in the low conductor range. After a couple hours and checking dozens of targets, I received a nice low tone, in the Gold Range. This one sounded different and seemed like a fairly big item. As we were investigating the target, we didn’t see anything, on top of the ground. All of a sudden, Linda says, the target may be a long lost sprinkler head, they had been searching for. As we dug deeper, we discovered the missing sprinkler head. Linda told me the sprinkler head had gone missing and her flowers weren’t getting the water they needed. Linda and her husband had been looking for it and they were going to have the Irrigation service person, search for it in the spring. Well, now he doesn’t have to, saving Linda and her husband a service call.
So, the earring has not been found and I am going back next week and search the remaining lawn, as I only covered approximately 40% of the lawn, today. Linda will continue to search inside the house and will be using a small swifter on the floors, in the area the backing came off. It is so tough because the earring may have been lost at any point while she was in the backyard. The earring may have been blown out of the area, Linda thought it should be in and into a totally different area. At least one more search will be needed, to cover the entire backyard. I will definitely update you all, if the earring is found.
As you see, it’s not always jewelry that is found. In the past, I have found Property Markers and Water Shut Off Valves, for clients. Now I can add a Sprinkler Head to the list.

Wedding Ring lost on the Beach, Lavallette NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

  Wolfie contacted me about locating his brand new wedding ring. He explained that after spending the day at the beach, he notice his ring went missing after they returned home for the day. Unfortunately, this happens quite often with newlyweds, as they are not used to having the ring on their hand, so it hasn’t become habit to notice it missing.  I wasn’t able to head right out as I usually do, but assured him I would be out later closer to low tide. I had him do all the essentials in the mean time, pin location in google maps, take pictures of the location, secure the area if possible, and make some kind of identifying mark of the spot just encase all other measures failed. It was very dark that night which limited my visibility, even with the bright headlamp. As I was still maneuvering to the pinned location, Wolfie showed up and put me right on the spot they were set up that day. Within about 5 minutes  my metal detector sounded off a sweet low tone, which was consistent with the ring he had described. Sure enough, Wolfe’s ring was now safely in my sand scoop, soon to be back on his finger, just after a few quick pics for my recovery story.

Texas Aggie Ring Recovered from Surf at a Los Angeles, South Bay Beach

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 


Rings lost in the surf can be found if you call a professional ringfinder. Call or text ASAP anytime 24/7 .. Stan The Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136 .. Your keepsake is not lost forever..

***Jason is here in Southern California with his family. His daughter is competing in a little league baseball competition. While waiting for the next game, they went to the beach. Jason went into the surf only waist deep when he got hit by a rouge wave. It happened so fast that he lost his  balance falling to his knees. When he stood up he knew right away his cherished  Texas A&M ring was not  on his finger.

He called me after somebody gave him my contact information. After discussing his situation, he told me he had a game to go join a couple hours. Even though it was high tide, I told him if he could stay in the location for an hour, I would not need him to complete a search. We met on the beach so he was able to show me the exact place the  loss happened. I knew it would probably be 3 to 4 hours for the tide to get low enough to find the ring. No problem, every search is different. I had the most important information for a successful search.

After 3 hours of grid searching the falling tide the ring was not showing.  it as getting dark and I had eliminated the whole lower low tide zone. i was preparing to tell myself it’s time to give up. I actually turned off my detector to begin the do the walk of shame. Then I saw an area where we had stood when Jason directed me to the spot he fell in the surf. BOOM ! the awesome gold  ring was there in the upper sand. when Jason got knocked down he arms swung around and his heavy gold ring (1 oz.)went 20 to 30 feet up toward  the top of the high tide mark. Another learning lesson for me. Jason does not know how close we came to calling thins “No Find”.

He met me the next evening  to pick up the awesome Aggie Gold Ring. we had  a  great reunion of Jason with his ring and he took the time to share a lot of the importance of the Aggie ring to it’s graduates. I consider it a privilege to recover and return these rings .” Gig Um “ That’s an Aggie ring greeting.

Lost wedding ring in the water, Astatula, Florida…Found with a metal detector by Florida ring finder!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Mike’s metal detecting service just for you!  Do not put it off or wait till tomorrow…time will work against you!  Especially if you have lost something in a public place!  We find lost rings, necklaces, pendants, cell phones, property stakes… anything metal!  Call or text…321-363-6029!

Erick wanted to help the folks at a local RV park in Astatula, Florida where a large tree had fallen across a narrow canal that was blocking access to Little Lake Harris.  The large oak tree had been dragged close to the shore which allowed Erick to use a rented chain say and after hours of intense labor, all that was left was the thick three foot section of the trunk in two and a half feet of water.  Erick’s daughter had been videoing the whole process and at the last few minutes of recording, Erick’s hands were very wet and sore and he went to shake the water off of his left hand and that action sent his beautiful wedding ring into the water just a few feet from where he was standing.

This is not the first call I have had from Erick to help him find his lost wedding ring!  On this occasion as soon as his ring hit the water he said, « I need to call Mike! »   It was late in the day and as I talked to Erick I could hear the panic and desperation in his voice.  So under an absolutely beautiful full moon I arrived at the location all geared up with wet suit, scuba boots and my trusty Garrett AT Max metal detector and waded into the cool dark water and began my search.  It took a few minutes and then I remembered Erick saying that his daughter had recorded the whole ordeal!  As soon as I saw the video and located the one lonely lily pad right next to where his ring hit the water….it look only seconds and my metal detector beeped loudly, indicating a shallow, strong, gold signal!

Erick was overcome with sentimental emotion and the bear hug that I received was evident how much his wedding ring meant to him and how much he loves his beautiful wife of 20 years!

Have you lost a ring..or phone..or keys..or chain..or something metal?  Call or text me ASAP at 321-363-6029 and lets talk about how we can help you!

Lost Gold Watch Bezel-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by a guy that does professional yard services and he had lost the bezel from his watch in a client’s yard while trimming the shrubs. The bezel was custom made gold with diamonds. He was working the day of the search and not able to be there with me. He had given me the address of his customer and they knew I was coming. This search to me nearly two hours of searching because the detector coil would not fit down in the shrubbery so I had to search a lot of it visually. I eventually found the bezel way up under a low growing Japanese maple tree. It was lying face down and very difficult to see in the mulch, but my detector saw it clearly.
