#how to find a wedding ring with a metal detector Tag | The Ring Finders

Gold Platinum Ring lost Jensen Lake Neighbourhood St. Albert Alberta.

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

Last evening, Mike contacted me to inform me that he had just lost his gold platinum wedding band of 17 years. While disposing of garbage, he slipped on ice and, upon regaining his footing, inadvertently dislodged the ring from his finger, which subsequently fell into the snow. Despite an extensive one-hour search, he was unable to locate the ring.

I have agreed to meet with Mike this morning.

Upon meeting Mike at his residence, he demonstrated the area where he believed the ring might have landed. However, it is important to note that such assumptions may not always be accurate. I conducted a preliminary search of the area without success and subsequently explored the opposite side of his driveway. To our delight, I discovered the ring approximately 12 feet from the location where Mike had anticipated its presence. Another happy client thank you Mike.

Key Fob Lost On Old Orchard Beach Maine, Found With A Metal Detector And Returned To The Owner

Recovery and Return #40
On Thursday morning, June 20, 2024, I arrived at the beach, in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. I was searching for a lost necklace, but didn’t have a lot of time, to complete the search. I had a previous commitment, in Norway, Maine and I needed to leave the beach, no later than 7:00am, in order to make my appointment. It was now 5:00am and I got straight, to the search. It was a fairly large area to search and I knew, I would not be able to finish, until the next day.
As I searched the area, I was performing a vertical grid search,to the beach. That is, I would start my search, near the dune/seagrass and search towards the water, turn around and start the search, back up to the seagrass area. As I was searching, I found the usual suspects of trash, coins and to my surprise, a Key Fob. The Key Fob had no name of ownership on it, but it did have a # on it. Perhaps an apartment, condo or hotel room number. The search continued, until I had to leave and unfortunately, no necklace was found. I will return to continue the search, in the area I wasn’t able to complete.

I now had to find the owner, of the Key Fob. I called the Old Orchard Beach Police Department and they had no record, of someone making a report, for a lost Key Fob. The OOBPD, took my information and said if anyone calls, they would give them my contact information.
I decided to post the missing fob, on my Facebook Page, The Ring Finders of Maine, along with 5-6 other local Facebook pages. I did not show the number, on the fob, and asked for the number to be revealed and if correct, I would personally guarantee the return of the fob. Almost immediately, I started getting tips that it looked like a Key Fob, that belongs to Grand Victorian Hotel Condominium. The Grand Victorian is an oceanfront beach property, that is at the base, of the OOB PIER.

One of the messages was from Ryan and said “Hello, I am the Manager, of The Grand Victorian. Unit # *** recently lost keys, so I’m hoping, these are the ones”.

I replied, “Ryan, This is fantastic! The # is ***”. Ryan gave me the correct 3 digit number and I knew we had found the owner.

I told Ryan that I would swing by The Grand Victorian, once I returned, from Norway, around 4:00pm to 5:00pm and return the key fob. Ryan told me that if he wasn’t there, there would be staff available and I could return the fob to them. I arrived at The Grand Victorian and Ryan was not there. I was able to talk to and return the key fob, to Bill. Although I was not able to meet the owner of the key fob, Bill told me that they would be ecstatic to have the fob back in their possession.

So, what started out as a search for a necklace, turned into a very hectic day, with me being able to return someone’s key fob. A hectic but very satisfying day and another smile on my face.

Another Gold Wedding Ring Found And Returned in Old Orchard Beach Maine

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)
Contact:

Now that Joanne had her wedding ring back, her friend just told me that he also had lost his wedding ring in the sand. He told me his name was Gene and that just like Joanne, he had also placed his wedding ring on his beach towel and went swimming in the ocean. Just like Joanne, Gene had forgotten he had taken his ring off and placed it on his towel. Gene was drying off, using his towel when he remembered his ring. It was to late as the wedding ring had been swallowed up by the beach sand. Gene proceeds to show me the area his beach towel was, when the ring was lost. It was only 5-6 feet away from his friend, Joanne’s lost ring. I passed the coil over the area that Gene had pointed out and within 3 swings of my coil, I had found Gene’s wedding band. I still couldn’t believe that I had just recovered 2 gold wedding bands with in 5-6 feet of each other and that they knew each other.
As I walked away and resumed detecting down new the low tide mark, I decided to call my wife to come pick me up, as I was now 3 hours into my hunt and that is about my limit. When my wife arrived, I started putting my detector and gear in to the car, when my phone rang. Story to continue in my next blog.
