Fast find on lost Oregon ring

So, late on Sunday evening I received a message from Kirill saying he was “quite desperately looking for a ring finder.” They had hosted a wedding event at their home the day before, and somehow during the event, his wife’s wedding ring went missing. The festivities occurred mainly on the outdoor deck, so he requested I come out and search below the the deck and in the grassy areas around it. He also suggested it could have ended up in the trash bags from the event, so maybe searching the trash bags was a possibility.

I was able to meet them the next afternoon. Preparing for an excursion under a deck, I loaded my detectors, gloves and knee pads, flashlights, and an endoscope camera.

When I arrived, the rental company was there loading up the tables and chairs from the event. I met up with Kirill, and he walked me up to the deck where they had the post wedding festivities. He pointed out where the tables and dance floor had been. He said he had reviewed the photos from the event, and the last time the ring was seen was in the area we were standing.

I asked him to describe the ring again, and he said it was white gold with a blue sapphire stone. I pointed down at the deck between us and said, “Like that?”
There, shining in the sunlight was a gleaming blue stone. The ring was caught in the gap between two of the deck boards.
Kiriill’s wife joined us and the ring was happily reunited with her finger.
He was certain he had checked the area of the deck. Perhaps it had been stuck on one of the tables or chairs the rental company had been removing that afternoon, or maybe a set of fresh eyes spotted it… regardless, a beautiful ring back where it belongs.

Probably my quickest recovery yet, and thanks to you both for the generous reward!

Wedding ring lost in November found in Damascus, Oregon

  • from Oregon City (Oregon, United States)

On Friday evening, I found a voicemail from Ron saying he had lost his gold wedding ring in late November while putting up Christmas lights in his yard. After chatting on the phone, we set up to meet at his home the next morning.
I arrived and met Ron who told me what he had done that day.

He said he had used a ladder to put up Xmas lights in some trees in his yard. He had also pruned a few branches and dragged them to another location on his property. When he realized his ring was lost, he had raked and sorted through materials in the area he thought the ring might be, but hadn’t found it. He had also purchased a detector at Harbor Freight, but only found miscellaneous junk items.
As always, I brought a couple detector options, but started with the Equinox 700. As Ron had been asking about detector details, and what to look for when using it, I didn’t use the headphones, and turned the volume up. As I searched the area, I received a scratchy sound, and we discussed that. A bit later, there was a hit, and Ron said, “That sounds different “.
Using my pin-pointer, about 2” down in the loose soil was what we were looking for!
Another great adventure, meeting a great person.

Lost Gold Wedding Ring Found in Tigard, Oregon

  • from Oregon City (Oregon, United States)
Contact:

I received a text from Kyle saying he had lost his gold wedding ring in his front lawn several days ago. He and his wife had tried several different approaches to locate it, but had no luck. He said he had found me on Ring Finders, and asked if I would be willing to come help him out. I told him I could be there the next morning, and we were set.

I arrived and met Kyle, who showed me the area he suspected the ring had departed his finger. On the day in question, we had some heavy rains in our area. As he was moving the trash bin to the curb, he stopped to shake out a tree limb that was being weighed down by all the water. When he let go, the limb snapped-up and he felt it catch on his ring. The area had a nice, thick lawn, which about 3″ tall. Kyle went back in the house to work, telling me to give him a yell if I needed anything, and I pulled ot the AT Gold and started under the tree. I immediately got an interesting hit, but it seemed too deep and scratchy for a gold ring, so I moved on. I started an East-West grid across the lawn. After my second pass, I just had to go back to the signal under the tree. I had to cut a small plug and about an inch down, there it was…a AA battery. Back to the grid.

Right away I heard another good one just on the edge of the lawn. Scraping away dirt I didn’t see anything, but the pinpointer told me there was something there. I pealed back the sod and pulled out a  bent, copper bracelet that had been there a long time. Not being what I was after, I set it aside and moved on. Maybe two steps further and I heard that golden tone. Sweep from the other direction and knew. Pulled apart the grass and there it was. About a 25 min. search.

Us Ring Finders are always looking for interesting ways to return folks lost items, so I called Kyle thru the window, asking him how big the ring he had lost was. He came outside, saying he thought it was something like a size 12. I held up the braclet-thing and said, « So, it’s not this big then? » We had a chuckle and talked about the item, then I pointed to the ring in the grass, asking him « Or is it more like this? » He seemed genuinely suprised to see his ring again and said he ‘Could just hug’ me. We went with a hardy handshake.

Nothing better than these expressions!
