Lost Car Key… Found In Williamsburg, Iowa

Contact:

I got a call today to search for a single lost car key. It was lost several days ago in a snowy yard. The lady had rented a detector but couldn’t find it. So she found my number today and gave me a call.

Luckily I wasn’t busy so I got my equipment together and drove over. I can see why she had trouble with a rental, there were all kinds of junk targets and interference even after turning my sensitivity down. After awhile I did come across a nice shallow target that was her key. She was very happy to have it back.

This gold cross was lost in Bradley Beach during the tropical storm last week.

While swimming in the ocean recently off Bradley Beach, 15-year-old Nicky Schneider lost his grandmother’s chain and crucifix.

Nicky and his mother Terri were devastated. Terri’s father bought the chain while on a trip to Europe for Nicky’s grandmother, who died four years ago.

The next day, Tropical Storm Isaias hit.

“I decided to post the missing chain on the Bradley Beach Facebook page figuring it was a long shot, especially now that this crazy storm had come through,” said Terri’s friend AnnMarie Neary Bergwall of New York and Spring Lake.

Six days later, Bradley Beach resident Jane DeNoble was on the beach and spotted someone with a metal detector. DeNoble later learned it was Rich Hageney of Doylestown, Pa., a sales representative for Medtronic and a member of theringfinders.com, a group of independent metal detecting specialists.

“I have been metal detecting since I was 10 years old,” Hageney said. “Having returned countless treasures over the years, I have found returning these items as thrilling as finding them.”

“Jane went over to him and half jokingly asked if by chance he had found anything,” Bergwall said. “She then told him to go look on Fifth Avenue because someone lost a gold chain and crucifix six days ago.

Rich proceeded to go down two avenues to look. Within 10 minutes, he located a gold chain and crucifix under the wet sand.”

“I saw a man with a metal detector and mentioned it to him and to keep his eyes peeled,” DeNoble said. “And seriously, less than 10 minutes later, he’s back with it in his hand.”

DeNoble sent Bergwall a message through Facebook.

“I called Nicky’s mom, Terri, to tell her that there was a possibility that her mother’s chain was found,” Bergwall said. “I put Terri and Jane in touch with each other. They wanted to see a picture of the chain and crucifix before showing it to Terri to be sure it was hers. Terri could not find one, but swore if it was not the right one she would not say it was. Jane and Rich then sent a picture of the chain and crucifix for Terri to look at. She burst into tears because it was her mother’s crucifix.”

Bergwall drove to Bradley Beach with Terri and Nick from Spring Lake, where the Morristown residents had been staying.

“We jumped in the car to go meet these selfless and kind people to pick up the chain,” Bergwall said. “Our faith is restored. There are great people out there.”

“You can imagine how [Nick] felt when he lost it,” DeNoble said. “It’s amazing how the necklace survived the storm. People were watching us as she was overwhelmed with happiness. I’m just so happy to be a small part of the miracle that happened that day.”

Lost Platinum Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Chadds Ford, PA

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Steve found me in the Ringfinders online directory after losing his platinum wedding band while doing yard work at his home in Chadds Ford, PA. He told me he was familiar with the Ringfinders because he lost this same ring 3 years prior on a beach in California…the local ringfinder saved the day back then. I arrived at his home and he showed me the area where he was working in the yard… it wasn’t a large area and he was quite confident that the ring fell off exactly in area he was working. I scanned it the first time with my Minelab Equinox 800 detector quite quickly. After not finding it on first pass we decided to dump bucket of yard waste he had picked up that day and see if it was mixed in….but no luck there either. I decided to extend my search area beyond the area he had originally pointed out. Sure enough within a minute I received a solid « 13 » signal on my detector. There, after pushing aside the high grass, was his beautiful platinum wedding band. I was very happy the Ringfinders came through for him again with this same ring!

Lost and Found Engagement Ring on Rockville, Maryland Lawn

Katie’s Beautiful Engagement Ring Recovered from the Lawn!

Katie Smiling After Her Beloved Engagement Ring was Recovered by Brian Rudolph!

BRIAN RUDOLPH, LOST ITEM RECOVERY SPECIALIST (LAND, WATER, SAND, HOUSES & VEHICLES) WILL FIND YOUR LOST KEEPSAKE! CALL ASAP (301) 466-8644!

It was a wintry morning with just a hint of a dusting of surface snow that took place overnight. In fact, the people of the city of Rockville, Maryland did not anticipate that the little manifestation of winter that day would be the only snowfall for the entire season! In fact, there weren’t even enough ice crystals on the ground to truly consider it a « fall of snow » – it was more like a tease!

I received an email that cold morning from a young lady named Katie who shared that she had lost her beloved 14 karat white gold diamond engagement ring somewhere near or upon her front lawn. She had walked out of her house in the chilly weather that morning, made her way down the front steps, all the way to the curb where she deposited a few pieces of plastic into the recycling bin which had already been wheeled out to the street the night before. Just as the items were dropped into the receptacle, Katie reacted to some water that fell on her cold hand and immediately jerked her left arm back to shake off the excess droplets. During that motion, her loose fitting diamond ring flew off her finger and she believed it headed towards the « sugar coated » grass. Immediately, Katie searched everywhere for the jewel which included the lawn, sidewalk, street, and even the recycling bin just to make sure that she wasn’t imagining things when she thought it went towards the lawn. Unfortunately, nothing turned up. It was at that point that Katie requested the additional assistance of her husband to join her in this bizarre investigation to help her solve the mystery as to where this stubborn guy ended up! The two of them looked over the lawn again and again and then searched the street, the recycling bin, and the sidewalk all to still come away with nothing.

Katie was still pretty certain the white gold « betrothal band » was somewhere on the front lawn, well camouflaged by the snow cover. However, she just couldn’t imagine where it ended up after searching every inch of the frosty front yard. At some point, Katie’s husband left for work and she decided to stay home and continue to search the area throughout the day, as well as keep an eye on any pedestrians walking by who might end up spotting the ring, pulling it from the ground and walking off with it.

After the frustrated woman went outside a few more times to search and then sadly return inside her house empty handed, Katie realized that she needed to find a professional to recover her most precious keepsake. That’s when she found THE RING FINDERS directory online, read up on me, Brian Rudolph, who was listed as one who provides a metal detecting service in Rockville, Maryland, and then immediately called me requesting my help.

Once I got all the details about the ring and how it disappeared on the front lawn, I made arrangements with Katie for me to visit her home sometime in the early afternoon. By the time I arrived, there wasn’t much evidence of any previous snowfall. I introduced myself to the distressed young lady and she took me to the exact spot where she dumped her recycling items and where the ring flew off her finger.

Next, I returned to my vehicle where I got all of my gear out and quickly began metal detecting the street, all along the curb, the sidewalk and the front lawn. Due to the fact that I operate some of the finest equipment on the market and possess much experience with recovering white gold diamond engagement rings, I was able to find Katie’s gorgeous keepsake in less than 3 minutes or so. A very clear target signal appeared on my machine and the object I was focusing on fell into the VDI number range (visual discrimination indicator) of what I was anticipating to appear on my detector screen. I knelt down to investigate the target, and as I used my pinpointer (handheld metal detector) to identify the exact location of the item, there it was, hiding deep within the grass, I saw the most loveliest solitaire diamond ring! It was absolutely breathtaking!

I was so happy to complete another successful recovery! Moreover, I was so relieved that the ring had not fallen into the street or on the sidewalk where someone could have picked it up! Such excitement filled my entire being! I love what I do in helping people recover their lost property and I was elated to have been able to find such a sentimental object of love for Katie!

I couldn’t wait to share the happy news with the proud owner of the ring! It’s hard to express with words just how joyful Katie was when I presented her engagement ring back into the hands of the one who had missed the cherished keepsake so badly! Her countenance not only gave off an expression of pure surprise upon seeing the diamond ring being delivered to her, but also the word « relief » could easily be read within both of her eyes as she took in the moment that her treasured jewel of love was safely back in her care once again! I could not have been any happier for Katie that afternoon!

Lost cross at Pacific Beach found.

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Reuben called me saying that he had just lost a cross off his necklace while running on the beach in the wet sand, on the slope and in the shallow water.  It was right around high tide when he called, and I was just about to eat some dinner, so, I asked Reuben if he could hang around down there a while so I could gulp down some groceries and let the tide go out a bit. He agreed, and we met at a spot at the north end of the search area around 9:45pm. He explained to me that he headed south from there and was running in a zigzag pattern from the water’s edge to the top of the slope, kind of dodging the surf as it surged in and out. I then asked how far he ran until he noticed it was gone. Well, he had a selfie that he took, at the spot we were standing, showing that he had the cross at that point. He then said that he started running from there and headed south for a good 5 minutes! Whoa, that was going to be a HUGE search area. After more Q&A we decided the most likely area was toward the other end of his run when he discovered it gone after he had jumped over a pile of kelp, but, frankly, it could be anywhere along the way. Ok, let’s start walking to that spot. I figured I’d go ahead and turn on my detector and sweep a bit while we went. I just picked a straight line on the slope about half way between the water and the top of the slope. We walked, and we walked, and we walked some more. Found a few piles of kelp, search all around them, and continued on. I hadn’t gotten one signal thus far. I asked how much further he ran, and he pointed down the beach some more. I was about to say that this was going to be a waste of time as this search area was now almost 1/4 mile long and approaching the edge of Mission Beach (the next beach south), and that I was going to have to get a lot more help to cover all this sand, when we approached another pile of kelp. Searched all around it and continued on a little ways more, when I got my first signal of the entire way. A nice solid 11 on my Equinox. One scoop and Reuben spotted his gold cross (a family heirloom that he got from his father) in the pile of wet sand I just dumped. Talk about dumb luck! We both should have bought lottery tickets right then and there. I’m not sure who was more amazed, but, we both counted our blessings on this one! That potential search area was the largest one I had ever had and would have taken me over a week to completely cover it by myself. We found it in an incredible 20-25 minutes. A pleasure to meet you Reuben and thank you for the reward.

Lost engagement ring found

  • from Fernandina Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

I actually saw a post on Facebook and called the number.   I explained that I was with ringfinders and I would be happy to come look if they wanted me to.

They couldn’t believe I would drive 2 hours to search for the ring.

I was there for maybe 10 minutes and found a gold ring.   Then a hour later I found her engagement ring.  They did not tell me they had actually lost two rings.    The first ring was hers too.    If I had known that, I would have probably stayed in the water and found the second one close by.   They were shocked when they got the call that the ring had been found.   They were even more shocked when I told her I had found her other ring also.

They were very appreciative and I appreciate the reward.

Hopefully I can get the video of her getting her ring back up so everyone can see her reaction and hear her story.  Here is the link.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9Ey5Qc9hlM&feature=share

Adam gave me a call yesterday telling me that last winter while walking down the back alley by his work he slipped and fell and when brushing himself off he lost his wedding ring.

Lost ring at Ocean Beach dog beach found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Bryan just went down to the water to rinse sand off his hands. He returned to where has was camped in the dry sand and when he shook the remaining water off his hands his precious gold ring he got in Dubai flew off into the sand too. He sifted around with his fingers for a while without success. I got the call and told him I’d be right down. After battling the traffic to get there, I arrived just before sunset and walked out to  the search area where Bryan waved me over to where he was. He moved his blanket out of the way, 10 seconds and two swings later, I get a solid 17 signal on my Equinox just out of the area he had searched with his fingers. I asked if he would like to pick up his ring, or, would he like me to do it. I took one scoop and held it up for him to grab. He took a photo of it in the scoop, pulled it out, and put it back on his finger.  A happy Bryan can now head home. A pleasure to meet you and thank you for the reward.

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Friday, David was riding with his wife Brooke down a Jacksonville, NC backroad.  He went to point something out to Brooke and the motion of his left hand caused he wedding band to go flying onto the street at a high speed.  They searched day and night for the ring along the roadside grass and weeds.  Sunday, Brooke found out about my detecting service and sent me a message.  We agreed to meet during her lunch break.  A few sweeps along a very trashy road caused me to change my normal swing style and that was the ticket to locating surface and near surface targets.  Eventually, I made it up to where there ring was resting.  Brooke told me she was in tears thinking about the ring being lost forever.

Newlywed Carrie was spending the last part of a vacation with her in-laws in a Surf City beach house.  She had given her rings to her new mother-in-law before swimming.  The rings were placed in a rear pocket.  It is believed wedding band slipped out of the pocket when a phone was pulled out for pictures.  Emerald Isle Metal Detecting was called that same day.  When I arrived, I was very glad they called me quickly and knew the general area the ring most likely would have been lost.  My metal detector, a Minelab CTX-3030 locked in on a strong 12-12 signal display and I was able to gently raise her ring from the soft sand of the beach.  Her husbands first words were « That’s amazing! »
