ITS A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I got a call about a lost wedding ring from Kuuipo. She explained how the ring was lost and I asked her to draw me out a map to help narrow the search area. After gathering as much information as possible I was faced with a hunt that was either gonna be on a lawn close to the beach or on the sand. I gathered my family and headed down to the spot. After careful searching on the lawn to no avail I started my way  onto the beach. As I started my gridding pattern towards the ocean I picked up a few coins which made me very happy because I knew that no one else came to this beach and metal detected. after my first pass down the beach I started my second leg while overlapping and around midway through I hear a tone that would make anyone stop in their tracks. I dig in the sand gently being careful and inside the Xtreme scoop is what was lost and now found a beautiful diamond ring. I smile as I retrieve the ring while onlookers are in anticipation. I say loudly … she will be happy. The beach goers asked if I was looking for something and I replied not no more. I get to call her about the good news. I found her lost ring! Another successful find.

LOST 14k WHITE GOLD ENGAGEMENT RING IN HICKORY, NC…… FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

Received a text last night from a young man whose mom had lost her wedding rings while picking up leaves and tossing them over the fence. The son had found the wedding band by sifting through the leaves, but was unable to locate the engagement ring.

They had been on her finger for nearly 51 years!

I showed up at 8:00 am and the search began. After an hour we hadn’t found it yet, so we went inside to talk to his mom and get a better idea of where she was and what she had been doing prior to losing it. Turns out we were in the only area where she was tossing leaves. I suggested we go back and try again. After about another 30 mins, I decided to kick over the sifted leaves to move them more out of the way, away from the fence and I got a hit! The ring was under 2-3 feet of sifted leaves and I missed it the first 8 times because I didn’t move the leaves. It was found 3 feet from the wedding band near the fence line!

Needless to say it was a very Merry Christmas for the whole family as they both were back where they belong!

Gold Wedding Ring found in Machesney Park Illinois

  • from Rockford (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

I received a text message from Jeff asking if I could possibly help find his wife’s wedding ring that had been lost in their backyard about 4 months ago. Of course I agreed, we then set up a day and time that worked best for both of us to do a search. I met Jeff at his house a few days later after we both got off of work. He took me into the backyard and showed me the area that they believed that it was in. So I divided the yard in half, diagonally, and began a grid pattern from their backdoor to a large tree in the corner of the yard. On my 4th past I received a loud repeating 50 VDI signal that was « double tapping » on my DĒUS II. In my experiences, a ring on the surface or close to it will make this « double tapping » sound. I told Jeff, « This might be it right here. » I checked the snow covered grass with my pinpointer, which immediately sounded off! After a little digging with my fingers in the grass, roots, and dirt I could see a shiny circle peeking through! I said, « There it is! » And handed it to Jeff as he came walking over to me.

Another smile for the book!

Lost Ring in State College, PA… FOUND!

  • from Altoona (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Sam reached out to me after losing his 14k white gold ring while playing in the backyard with his dog, Lupo. It was the first snowfall of the year, and Lupo was having a blast catching snowballs. As Sam shook the snow from his hands before heading inside, he felt the ring fly off his finger and heard a faint clink as it struck something near the deck.

Sam and his wife, Moyra, scoured the backyard as the snow fell harder, covering any trace of the ring. After hours of searching in vain, they reluctantly gave up, thinking it might be lost until spring—or forever.

When I arrived that weekend, the snow had melted some but there was still no sign of the ring. Armed with my Minelab Equinox 800 metal detector, I scanned where Sam thought the ring had landed. The minutes ticked by, and just when hope began to waver, the detector gave a familiar low tone. There it was, under the snow, waiting to be found.

Sam was overjoyed to have his ring back. He rushed inside to share the good news with Moyra and brought out Lupo, who was just as excited to meet me. As a final thank-you, Moyra gave me a few of her homemade Christmas cookies—an unexpected and delicious reward that didn’t last long on my drive home.

Helping Sam and Moyra reminded me why I love what I do. It’s not just about finding lost items; it’s about bringing joy and relief to people in those little moments that matter.

Mom’s Wedding Ring Recovered – Greensboro!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by a woman who had initially lost two rings, but had found one before calling me. While we were speaking about the when and where, she told me the backstory. Both her parents had passed and she had a ring from each. She decided to wear the two rings around her neck, but had the rings together on a hoop earring, which was in turn, looped onto a gold chain. She was spreading straw onto newly seeded grass in her back yard, and in rearranging the straw with a rake, she saw her father’s ring on the ground, which is when she realized that the hoop earring had opened and dropped the rings. As you might imagine, the hoop wasn’t strong enough to hold the rings securely and it had opened up. Finding the first ring was a good indicator about the location of the second, but she had searched extensively and hadn’t been able to locate it. After having her show me the areas where she’d been working, I started the search. After finding the usual yard trash (small pieces of aluminum, iron nails, screws, and a few pennies), I was able to locate her ring. In her own search, she had unknowingly stepped on it and pushed it down into the mud. Although it wasn’t visible, my detector wasn’t bothered by the mud and I was able to recover the ring. Given how important the rings were to her, it was great to see the joy in her eyes when the missing ring was recovered and returned!

Lost Gold Wedding Band in the Flower Bed-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by Addison and she said her Grandfather had lost his wedding band in the yard while pulling weeds. It was a two and a half hour trip to Nashville from here, but well worth the trip. Peter said he was pulling weeds in the front flower bed for most of the afternoon and it was after dark, around ten oclock before he noticed his white gold band was gone. He went back out and looked for it but didn’t see it.  After pulling the weeds and putting them in a wheelbarrow he rolled it to the back end of the lot to dump it out, so I had several places to search. I started in the lawn area bordering the bed and frankly, that is where I expected to find it. Not finding it there I went into the bed and did find numerous peices of scrap aluminum and metal that was close to the surface.  About 3/4 of the way through the bed my Manticore locked onto a solid 15 in all directions and it was also close to the surface. The soil was soft so I just rubbed the surface area of the ground from over the signal and I saw the glint of white gold shining at me. That’s what I saw in the attached photo with my finger pointing at it. It was totally buried so he would not have seen it. The search time was around 30-40 minutes.

Parkway Groundcover Hides Lost Gold Wedding Band in Chino, CA- Found!

  • from Corona (California, United States)
Contact:

Don’t delay in calling me! Time is of the essence!

I received a text from Harvey, asking if I was available to help find his white gold wedding band that was lost in the parkway in front of his house. When I got to his house, he pointed out the area of the parkway that he believed it fell off at, which was about a fifteen by six foot section between a light pole and a tree. Harvey said he had reached into his pants pocket to retrieve his car keys and upon pulling out his hand, he felt the ring fall off. The parkway has thick groundcover plants that are about 4″ thick.

I began sweeping the area pointed out with my metal detector, but failed to get a good signal. After re-sweeping the area, I decided to go beyond the tree boundary. About 2 feet on the other side of the tree, I got a strong signal and pinpointed it. As I squatted down to check the area, I immediately saw it just under the top of the groundcover, entangled in the growth.
Harvey was extremely excited that I found it, as was I!

Lost Gold Wedding Band in the Fall Leaves of Moreno Valley, CA – Found!

Don’t Wear Your Rings Gardening!

I received a call from Andrea who was quite upset. Andrea said she had been clearing the Fall leaves and weeds from around a bush in her front yard when she said she felt like one of her rings fell off. She checked, and her gold band had fallen off, but her other wedding ring stayed on. So she stopped right away and tried finding the band, with no luck. Andrea said she went online and found me on The Ringfinders website.
I drove out to her house and she pointed out the area where she had been working. I checked that area with my metal detector and Pinpointer but only came up with trash signals. We went through all the leaves and branches that she had put in a large plastic trash can, which was filled to the top. Still nothing.
I went back to the area she pointed out and checked a different spot and immediately got a strong signal. After clearing about two inches of leaves away, there was her gold band.
Needless to say, Andrea was very excited that I had found her ring in less than a half hour, and gave me a big hug! Another great call-out and recovery!

Lost Gold Watch Bezel-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by a guy that does professional yard services and he had lost the bezel from his watch in a client’s yard while trimming the shrubs. The bezel was custom made gold with diamonds. He was working the day of the search and not able to be there with me. He had given me the address of his customer and they knew I was coming. This search to me nearly two hours of searching because the detector coil would not fit down in the shrubbery so I had to search a lot of it visually. I eventually found the bezel way up under a low growing Japanese maple tree. It was lying face down and very difficult to see in the mulch, but my detector saw it clearly.

Lost Ring in Backyard-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I was contacted by Jessica to find her husband’s ring he had lost in the backyard while throwing balls for his dog. Along the way they had borowwed a metal detector to look for it themselves, but they didn’t know how to use it, so they hid her ring in the grass to test it out and see what it sounded like, and that’s where it got more complicated. The detector and their ears were overloaded with all the metal in the ground they didn’t know was there. Then they couldn’t find her ring either. That’s when she contacted me.  They had marked out a spot where she thought her ring would be, and it was a fairly small area, maybe six feet by four feet. I covered that area quickly and no ring, so I expanded the search area to beyond where she had marked out.  I had made one pass, turned around to parallel my path and I was facing the sun. After two steps I caught a relection in the grass of something silver colored before my coil passed over it. It was her ring. The entire search for her ring was less than ten minutes. While I was talking with her and taking a couple of photos the sun was directly in my eyes so I shifted position a little.  When she was looking at me I noticed she had fixed her attention to somewhere over my right shoulder. She said hold on a minute, and took off to the side of the yard and came back with his ring. If my memory serves me correctly it was dark colored, titanium maybe.  From the position we were standing she happened to see it laying on the ground in a clear area that was free of grass. So both rings were recovered in around fifteen minutes.
