Lost Tantalum Wedding Ring Found in Metairie, Louisiana

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

I received a text message from a man in Metairie, Louisiana who had lost his tantalum wedding band while playing fetch with his dog in the backyard. He’d searched everywhere in the vicinity and even tried using a cheap metal detector he had at home, but with no luck. I headed over after work, took a quick look at the yard, and within about five minutes my Nokta Makro Simplex Ultra locked onto a clean target. The ring was hiding just under the grass about 20 feet in front of the spot he thought it had fallen off. Another successful recovery and a very relieved owner! Always glad to bring these sentimental items back to the owner.

Wedding ring found after front yard search in Holden, Louisiana

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

Taylor contacted me back in December asking if I could assist in finding her wedding ring that was lost in her front yard after a night with hanging out by the bonfire with friends and family. I was able to make it out to Holden a few weeks later, however, once I finally arrived at her house, the rain began pouring down and the cold weather didn’t make the situation any better. After searching for about 30 minutes, I decided it would be best to return another day when the conditions were better. Almost two months later I finally was able to return. This time the weather was perfect. I used orange marking flags to meticulously mark every couple foot that I searched so that I don’t keep searching the same area. After clearing the entire front yard, I worked my way across the driveway to the side. Within 5 feet I saw her massive rose gold wedding ring still sitting on top the soil. I was thrilled that through perseverance, we were able to reunite Taylor with her lost wedding ring.

Gold ring lost in garden, found by ringfinder in Laplace, Louisiana

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by Lance on July 27, 2023, asking me to help him find his gold wedding ring that he lost during Easter time when he working in his garden. I went to Laplace, Louisiana in hopes of recovering his ring and returning it to him. Lance has had his wedding ring for almost 27 years and he has felt lost without it for the past few months. He didn’t recall exactly when it fell off, he just remembered having the ring on when he started in the morning and then it no longer being on his finger in the afternoon. He said he went numerous places throughout the yard where it could have fallen off. I began my search on one side of the garden bed and worked my way to the other side, only scanning the top layer with the pinpointer. No luck! So I decided to take out the Simplex+ and attempt to search the yard. The yard was relatively empty and there were no serious targets. I decided to go back to the garden and search the 3-8 inch deep range. After clearing about 3 feet of garden and got a beep from the pinpointer. As I scooped with my hand, out popped a gold ring. The 95 degree heat was really taking a toll , so I was extremely relieved I was able to find this within the hour. I went up to Lance and asked he « what type of material was the ring again? ». He responded with « yellow gold » and I said « like this type of yellow gold » as I showed him the ring. He was extremely excited and appreciative.

Ring lost in a 4-wheeler accident a few hours after getting married in Franklinton, Louisiana

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by a women who said her friend got into a 4-wheeler accident in Franklinton, Louisiana at Riverbend Campground, which resulted in him losing his tungsten wedding ring. The man had just got married a few hours earlier at Riverbend Campground and was celebrating with friends and family when he lost it. Now, the couple were on their honeymoon in another state and had tasked their friend with finding the ring at all costs. After searching all day the next day, she gave up looking. She managed to place a chair over the location where she thought the ring likely was.

She went home, did some research and learned about the Ringfinders. When she contacted me, I knew we didn’t have much time to waste considering it was on a beach at a public campground. I was able to make it over there a few hours later. I found the chair she had placed over the target and I immediately searched around the chair. My first target was a solid signal but ended up being a 9mm shell casing. My second target was another great signal, I figured it would be another shell casing but as I stuck the pinpointer into the sand and pushed the sand aside I saw the ring pop out. It was located about 2 feet behind the chair. It took less than 1 minute to make this recovery.
