Lost Wedding Ring Found with Metal Detector in Haitaitai, Wellington, New Zealand

  • from Wellington (New Zealand)

Nathan and Joanna have only been married for 3 weeks and Nathan’s ring was a little bit big for his finger. Although meaning to get it resized it was one of those things he hadn’t got around to doing.

Last night he was at a small park in Hataitai shooting some hoops with a basketball. He felt the ring come off his finger but in the failing light he was unable to find it in the grass.
Returning the next morning he could still not find it and a short time later I met him at the park.
The basketball hoop was mounted on very short grass but backed on to a bank covered in longer grass and weeds. There was a lot of metal trash in the ground and I wasn’t having any success. I got Nathan to show me, again, where he had been and to demonstrate the shot. I could see that there was a possibility that the ring could have flung off behind him.
It was only a few minutes later that I got a good signal in the longer grass. I used my handheld pinpointer and finally found the ring right down on the roots of the grass. Very satisfying as it would have been impossible to find this without a metal detector.

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Wooster, Ohio!

  • from Wooster (Ohio, United States)

On Tuesday, October 10th I received a text from Rick in Wooster, Ohio who said he found my name on The Ring Finders. He said he believed he lost his wedding ring while planting garlic in his garden on Sunday and asked me to give him a call, if I thought I could help. I called him that afternoon, he gave me all the details and we set up a time the next day for me to come find his ring. On Wednesday, when we pulled into Rick’s driveway, he was ready for us! We exchanged introductions as we pulled out our gear and within a few minutes we were heading across the lawn to his garden. He showed us exactly which rows of his garden he had been working on when he believed he lost the ring and we got to work! Rick stood off to the side of the garden as we worked our way down the rows. The first few hits were bits of scrap metal, which I held up for Rick to see before dropping in my pouch and then, as I turned around to start down the third row, BAM! There it was, that perfect signal! I bent down and plucked Rick’s ring from the soil and held it out to him exclaiming, « and here it is! » Rick was so excited and couldn’t believe how quickly we found it. (The entire hunt took less than five minutes!) As I handed him his ring, he asked if he could give me hug. « Absolutely! », I said. We chatted for a few minutes, snapped a few pictures and he told us we’d gotten him out of the doghouse! As metal detectorists, these are the moments we live for!

The ring back on Rick’s finger!

 

Wedding Ring Lost On Emerald Isle Beach Saved Just In Time Before Trip Home

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Bill was taking one last swim in the Atlantic Ocean before heading back to Colorado.  Before swimming, he took off his gold & platinum wedding band and rolled it up in his shirt and placed a towel over it on the path to the beach house.  Upon returning, he noticed it was missing and his wife contacted me to help.  I headed there as soon as possible.  They were in the process of checking out of the rented beach house and needed to catch a flight back home.  Bill lead me to the area that was hand searched and I switched on my machine and made my 1st pass.  When I turned to begin a second trail, I received a very loud tone beneath the sand.  The pinpointer did it’s job and Bill’s ring was lifted up from the dry sand.  I hope they were able to make their flight back in time as it was a stressing day already.

Lost Gold Man’s Wedding Ring in Pataskala, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

I received an email in January 2023 about a lost gold man’s wedding ring that was lost on his property in November 2021. He was simply playing with his dog and bouncing a tennis ball off the driveway and the next moment the ring flew off into the weeds. He search and search with no luck. Since living in Ohio and having cold weather in January, we opted to wait until warmer weather to perform a good thorough search. I started the search on one side of the driveway, searching through the leaves, sticks, ivy vine, and small plants with no luck with all awhile getting many hits of normal household yard trash. I continued to the other side of the driveway searching and searching. Then got a hit, I pulled back the leaves, ivy vines and there was the ring. He was very happy to have the ring returned to him after 22 months of being gone.

Lost White Gold Engagement Ring-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I received a text from Leslie on Monday afternoon concerning a lost engagement ring.  She had found me with an internet search.  As it was late in the day I told her I could come the next day, becase it was about a two hour drive from where I’m located.  I got to the site at around 11:00 AM Central Time.   The couple had been pulling a boat and pulled off into the parking lot of an old convience store that had been converted into another use.  As they got out to adjust the boat straps, (the ring had been placed in the shallow tray under the door handle), the ring somehow went flying.  They looked on the pavement and didn’t see it, but there was a grass strip between the pavement and a shallow ditch, then more grass just beyond the ditch.  I started my search in the grass strip, then the ditch, then just beyond the ditch.  Being this had been a convience store at one time I expected a lot of metal trash in the ground, and I was right.  She did have a metal detector that had been her grandfather’s, but was overwhelmed by the abundance of metal trash.  I searched slowly and methodically while listening for the white gold tone and looking for the target ID I typically get for white gold rings.  After searching the entire area, no ring.  Of course I found several pieces of foil.  I turned off my CTX detector, and was explaing the process, where I search the most likely area first, then expand the search area if the ring is not found, (a visual scan of the pavement was next).  At that time someone from the building, I’ll call him « Tom », came out and we explained what we were doing, and that a visual scan of the pavement was next.  He struck out towards the highway, and in around ten seconds I heard him call out, « is this it? »  He had found it around 10-12 feet from the edge of a busy highway!  The ring was intact, but had some minor damage where it looked as though it had been run over and stuck in the tire treads before dropping off just before the highway.  In a visual search, the more eyes the better.  All in all, another successful search!

 

 

LOST GOLD RING OFF DOCK IN LITTLETON, NC………. FOUND!!!!!!!

  • from Jacksonville (North Carolina, United States)

After my last (silver) ring recovery in Mooresville, NC. I had a call that a man had lost his gold wedding ring in about 8-9 feet of water off the dock on Lake Gaston. He said he was trying to reach for a pool noodle when the ring just slid off into the water. I drove 3 hours to Lake Gaston and wasn’t able to retrieve it that night due to the dark and the storms that had just come through.

The next morning, I get up and make my way to their lake house again. This time the conditions were much better. I was able to get on the bottom and make my way towards where he had lost the ring. 3-5 targets later and I had his GOLD ring in hand. It took me about 15 mins to find the right spot he had lost it in.

I love this hobby that allows me to meet and help so many people out!
