Lost Ring in Sand Dune .. Zuma Beach, CA. .. Recovered

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

I was actually just finishing up an unsuccessful search for a ring lost in Malibu when Dave called me. He had just lost a tungsten carbide ring in a dry sand berm ( mound ) 10 feet high.
After he described that he had been messing around on a sand dune, I asked him to be careful not to move too much sand as this could get the ring out of range of a metal detector.
I was only 7 miles away from Dave’s location and able to meet him within 30 minutes. Another 10 minutes with my XP Deus metal detector on the steep hill of sand I got a good signal almost on top of the mound. A quick dig with my scoop and there was Dave’s ring.
We were lucky that I was in the area. 4pm on a week day is peak traffic time on Los Angeles freeways. It would have taken a couple hours, maybe three hours to drive the 70 miles from the other side of town.

Lost Hearing Aid in Grass .. Mission Viejo, CA. .. Found

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Jim called me, inquiring if my metal detector could locate a small hearing aid. My answer was, it depends on the location and the type of hearing aid. It would be necessary to meet at the location and I would need the other hearing aid or a spare battery.
Jim was sure he lost the hearing aid when he pulled a doggy pop bag from his pocket, where he had put his one and only hearing aid. It was a grassy area at a park which was a couple blocks from his home.
We met at the park and I was able to tune my XP Deus metal detector to get a reading from the small battery. The area was 20′ x 120′ with 2″ thick grass. The hearing aid was about the size of a cashew nut which made me think this would possibly be an eyeball find. Even though Jim had searched the evening before calling me, I know the lighting angle of the sun may make it easier to see at a different time of day.
I asked Jim to start at the opposite end of our search zone and I worked toward him. Twenty minutes into the search, Jim yelled at me,  » I Found It! » He was a happy man because it had just been repaired and he was upset at himself for carelessly putting it in his pocket with the plastic bag.

Lost ring in lake, in Heathrow, Florida…returned to owner!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

The other day my good friend Chris texted me about a lost ring in a small lake in the Heathrow area. In casual conversation a neighbor mentioned to Chris that she had lost her precious silver ring while feeding bread to the fish. It happened just after Christmas and Tina could not get her mind off of loosing the very ring her brother had given her just a few years ago. After hearing her story Chris told her « I know just the guy to help you get your ring back! » So the following day—Valentines Day–I made arrangements to meet Tina and have her show me where she lost her ring. The original information I received was that the ring was lost only a few days ago so when I arrived and got set up–I concentrated my search efforts in the water from the shore out to about three feet deep. After a thorough search in the water and coming up empty handed I called Tina to come out and explain to me again what all happened the day she lost her ring. Come to find out she actually lost it a few days after Christmas, so that turned out to be 6 weeks ago and we have had very little rain and the water level had dropped a good two feet or so since then. I realized just where she would have been standing and the drop zone area would be up the bank further. And sure enough after a few sweeps of my coil over the dry ground–there was Tina’s lost ring just under a thin layer of dirt and mud! Tina could not believe I had found her lost ring and was thrilled to get it back on her finger!
So thanks Chris, for contacting me and helping bring joy and relief to Tina!
Lost something recently? Call or e-mail me ASAP!

Lost Diamond Ring Found in Cumberland RI

  • from Woonsocket (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

On February 25th, I received a somewhat frantic call from Lisa.  Her custom-made diamond wedding ring-band had been missing for two weeks.  It was last seen in a bathroom drawer in their house, and Lisa and her husband had been combing the house since that time.  They assumed that their two-year old son had hidden the ring somewhere in the house or that he may have thrown it out of an open second-story window in his room.  Lisa had learned of The Ring Finders from a friend and asked for my help with the search.  I covered the area in the backyard directly under the window without any success.  I also suggested that the ring may have landed on an eave or its gutter just below the second floor windows but would have needed a ladder of over twenty-feet to reach the area.  We moved our search into the house, trying to imagine where a toddler would hide a ring.  After searching through closets, drawers, under furniture, etc., I saw her son trying to stuff something through a small space in his parents’ bedroom window and suggested that he may have done the same with her ring.  We opened the bedroom window, and Lisa hung out the window to check the eave and gutter, while I made sure that she didn’t fall out.  She was shocked and ecstatic to find her ring on the eave right under the window.

Texas A&M Class Ring Lost in the Grass of a home in Houston, Texas (found) by John Volek TRF-Houston, Texas.

I was contacted by Trevor regarding his lost Texas A&M Class ring in the front yard of his residence in Houston. Trevor reported while participating in some activities in his front yard he took off his ring and put it in the pocket of his gym shorts. Trevor said at the conclusion of the event he realized the ring was missing from his pocket. He reported he and his friends spent several hours searching for the ring, which eventually led him to renting a metal detector. With no success, Trevor searched the internet and found The Ring Finders and placed the call.

Check out the video to see the recovery of Trevor’s Texas A&M Class Ring:

Ring Found- Fairfax Virginia, Feb 2017

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)
Contact:

February 2017

Monday, the 20th around 4PM I got a call from a lady stating that her husband has lost his wedding ring and wanted to know if I could help. She explained the situation: Her and her husband, Josh, had been clearing a wooded area behind their house.  Fearing he may lose his ring, Josh removed it and placed it in his pants pocket. After the days work was complete, Josh made his way to the laundry room to rid his dirty cloths… that’s when he realized that his wedding ring was no longer in his pocket. Both searched as best they could and then attempted to borrow a metal detector from a family member; but the family member had heard of The RingFinders and suggested they contact a local finder – ME! We agreed upon a meeting time – the next day at 5PM.

I arrived at exactly 5PM and met Josh, he retold the story and took me to the area where he spent the day before clearing brush.  The area was covered with about 8″ high ivy – prime hiding spot for a wedding ring. I marked off a search area and began my search… an hour later, I called Josh over to get his ring.

So glad to see a ring back on it owners finger.

My Son… not Josh who chose not to be photoed up close

Gold Ring Lost in Snow .. Big Bear, CA. .. Found and Returned

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Ridhima sent me an email asking me if I could search for a ring lost in the snow at Big Bear, CA. I sent her a reply asking her to call me so we could discuss the circumstances of the loss.
Ridhima and her husband, Shashank had taken their 4 year old daughter to see the snow for the first time. They had only spent about an hour playing in the snow. On their way home Ridhima noticed her ring missing. It was too late to return to search for the ring and she was not sure where the loss occurred. When they got home they reviewed Celphone videos the had taken. The ring was on when they were playing in the snow. She got on the Internet, locating TheRingFinders.com.
We had one problem, they were not able to meet me at the location. I asked them to send me photos, and a google satellite map marked with approximate location. After seeing the photos and the map, I agreed to make the 100 mile trip to search the snow for the gold ring.
The next morning I arrived at the location dressed for the cold weather. The snow was less than 8″ deep which would be within range of my metal detector. The only thing I learned was that gloves are nice to have when digging in the snow for metal signals.
It only took an hour of grid searching the area to find Ridhima’s special ring. I sent her a photo and we met on my way home to return the ring. They couldn’t believe that the ring they thought was lost forever was now back where it belongs. I have more respect for our fellow ringfinders that search the snow. Many of my searches are on beaches in the sand, much easier.

Platinum Wedding Ring Lost in Backyard .. Pasadena, CA. .. Found

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Thursday,  2-9-17

Peter called me early this morning from Pasadena, CA. He had lost his platinum wedding band in the back yard while gardening. He was sure that it was somewhere in the back yard. Although he had not felt the ring slip off his finger.
Peter’s plan was to rent a metal detector when he found TheRingFinders.com. He called me, asking if I was available. It was very important to have his ring for a formal wedding ceremony this next weekend.
Peter was at work but I was able to meet his wife, Nadia at noon. She showed me the area that Peter had done the most work. The ring did not show, so we expanded the area to where he had walked to get tools. As I was walking over to that location with Nadia, I got a short solid signal with my XP Deus metal detector. There, between the asphalt driveway and the grass was the platinum wedding band lying vertical. Nadia quickly bent down to retrieve the ring with a look of relief that they will now have this ring for their important wedding ceremony. Another happy successful recovery for me to remember. I love helping people find their precious sentimental keepsakes.

Lost anniversary ring recovered in Redmond after Washington snowstorm!

  • from Seattle (Washington, United States)
Contact:

Hello everyone, my name is Jason Anderson and I just wanted to use my first post to introduce myself and my services. I am a very determined detectorist and am looking forward to helping reunite you with your lost items in the greater Seattle/Bellevue/Eastside areas.

I am available to hunt for all kinds of lost items, not just rings… and I can travel further for searches on a case-by-case basis. I can even do shallow water hunts if need be.

My first case as a Ringfinder occurred this week after Washington got a bit of a snow storm. A woman had lost her rings in the snow after taking her wet gloves off. She was understandably upset and very hopeful I could help find her rings. I was able to travel to her city the next morning and it proved to be a difficult hunt in the snow… but I found her gold & diamond anniversary band! The other ring was still out there but it was getting dark so I scheduled a return trip to continue searching.

Before I could return, the snow quickly melted in the rain and luckily a neighbor found the remaining ring! All’s well that ends well! She was ecstatic and so am I!

Just remember, if you lost your ring or any other metal items that are important to you: Don’t give up hope, and time is of the essence! Give me a call or email me please! I want to help you find your rings, and your smiles! 🙂

Today, I received a call from Nick asking for my help in finding his keys.  They were lost in the snow after a storm that dropped a foot of snow. Nick had the keys in his pocket when he started snow blowing. After he finished, the keys were missing, and Nick had no idea where to begin. He decided to search the internet for help and found me through The Ring Finders website.  I searched his yard and found the keys in about ten minutes. As you can tell,  Nick was very happy to have his keys back!
