Lost Hearing Aid Found – Raleigh

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a call from Don, a nice gentleman who had lost a hearing aid while working outside on his property. I said I’d be happy to come out and see if I could find it for him — I then checked the property on Google Maps. Holy Cow! Don’s property was about 8 1/2 acres! (I could search for days and not cover it all.) Don met me when I arrived and explained that he knew exactly where the hearing aid had gotten lost. He’d been pruning a bush and when he turned his body, a branch snagged the little wire that connects the « in-your-ear » part of the hearing aid with the « behind-your-ear » part. He felt it come off and after checking his ear, was positive he had the location nailed down. He put a little landscaping flag in the ground so I could search in the correct spot. The most likely scenario was that the hearing aid had been « launched » by the branch into the bush he’d been trimming, so that’s where I started my search. Using two different detectors, I spent probably 20 minutes covering that bush top to bottom and side to side — no luck. I turned to back out a little bit and widen my search, when I saw the hearing aid caught on a branch, most probably the branch that plucked it out of his ear in the first place.

I took the hearing aid over to Don who was extremely happy that he didn’t have to buy a replacement (if you don’t wear hearing aids, you may not know – these things are not cheap!). It’s usually about putting a ring back on a finger, a necklace back around a neck, or a bracelet back on a wrist, so putting a hearing aid back in an ear was a first for me! Another happy ending!

 

Wedding Ring Found – Cary!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I got a text from Vinit, who explained that he had been playing volleyball on a sand court and lost his platinum engagement ring. He had posted signs around the court in case someone else playing on that court found it, but when he texted me, no one had called him. This was one of those rare occasions when the person knew exactly where they were when the jewelry was lost, the item was lost in sand (which is great to detect in), and it was in a place with almost no trash to complicate things. It took me only about 10 minutes to find Vinit’s ring and get it back on his finger where it belonged. Quick recovery, happy ending!

 

LOST RING IN IOWA, LOUISIANA – FOUND

  • from Lafayette (Louisiana, United States)
Contact:

Emerson called me on Memorial Day weekend to help find a ring he lost while cutting the grass. We agreed that I would travel to the site on Tuesday. The area was a 3-acre grassed site behind his office.  He cut it with a zero-turn lawnmower. The area was level and the grass was short.  Trash had jammed the blade at one point. He thought the ring may have come off his finger as he was clearing the blade. I set up a 30’ x 40’ box around the area and began searching from one corner. Fifteen seconds later the detector sounded, and the ring was recovered.

Thank you, Emerson, for your very generous reward!

Lost Heirloom Gold Necklace Found By Crystal Coast Ring Finders Metal Detector Service – Emerald Isle, NC

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Morgan was spending time with his family in Emerald Isle.  While on the beach, Morgan decided to go surfing with his brother and removed his necklace before heading out into the surf.  Upon returning, he had forgot about the necklace and packed up quickly and left the beach.  Morgan stated he and 12 other people searched for 3 hours that same evening and he came back the following morning to search for 2 additional hours and could not find his lost heirloom necklace.  Morgan reached out to me later that morning and I arrived shortly afterwards to meet Morgan’s father.  Morgan needed to get back home (out of town) and his father showed me the search area on the beach.  It took me less than 30 minutes to pull Morgan’s lost necklace from the high tide line of the beach.  This was a very memorable recovery and everyone involved was so thankful.  (Morgan’s father in the recovery photo)

Ring lost at Coronado found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Aaron called me saying that his fiancee Katie lost her engagement ring in the dry sand. She had removed it to apply some lotion, set it in her hat, and in the process of them setting up the umbrella and blanket, the ring ended up missing. Later, they had also moved to another location in the wet sand 80 feet away, so, it could be there also. I started in the dry sand which was the most likely. Aaron pointed out the original spot where they had the umbrella planted, so, I started just to the side of that. First pass, nothing, but, two thirds of the way back on the second pass, I got the sweet sound that rang up a solid 25 on my Equinox 900. Poked the pin pointer into the sand and pulled out a beautiful gold ring. A tearful Katie was so happy to have her precious love token back again. A pleasure to meet you both and thank you for the reward.

LOST WEDDING RING IN GREENSBORO, NC POND……FOUND!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a text from a lady that said her husband of 51 years had lost his wedding ring at a small lake/pond while fishing with his grandkids.

As he was reaching to get a bobber he slipped and fell into the water. That’s when his ring slid off and he lost his cell phone in the process too. He found the cell but couldn’t find the ring. He also said a buddy of his tried to find it with his metal detector but since they didn’t come up with it, he thought it had to have gone deeper in the water/further out from the bank. Oh and the bank was made up of rip raft rock so that made it a bit more of a challenge.

I started scanning the rocks hoping they missed it and I wouldn’t need to get wet. I even scanned the waters edge before getting wet. I didn’t come up with a signal.

So I decided I had to get wet! I realized that I had forgot my weight belt, so fortunately they had two 10lbs weights that I was able to feed my belt through to hold me down, so i could scan the 3-5 feet water about 3-7 feet out.

After 4 hours of all that, I decided to scan the waters edge again (made like the 4th-5th time I had scanned this area between my two set ups)! I get a hit and I tell the gentleman, “I AM NOT SURE HOW I MISSED THIS SIGNAL LAST 3-5 TIMES!”

I grab my pinpointer, get near the waters edge and come up with a big GOLD RING!!! It had been less than a foot off the bank (where he lost his phone) and about 8 inches of water! UGH! Glad i found it but, well you know! Lol

We walk back to the house, his wife didn’t know I had found it yet. We go into the house and I say, “WELL WE GAVE IT A GOOD SHOT, BUT ALL FOUND WAS THIS GOLD THING!”

The transition from sadness/disappointment to literly tears of joy was priceless!! She comes up to me to take the ring and gave me a big hug, keep in mind im still soaking wet! She said I don’t care! Then she turned to her husband, they hugged and both cried a little more!

This is why I do this and what I live for/love to experience!

Lost Gold Pendent Found in Surrey with Metal Detector…

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

 

Vancouver/Lower Mainland Metal Detecting Service Call 24/7  Chris-778-838-3463

I received a call yesterday afternoon in regards to a young man who lost a gold pendant that was a gift for his first wedding anniversary. He bought a Metal Detector and searched for 2 1/2 days with no luck. That’s when he went online and found me on TheRingFinders website.

He called me late afternoon yesterday we discussed the search and I decided to go out immediately and start looking as this was lost in a public area where someone else could find it. When we met, it was a pretty big area so I pulled out my grid search tapes and started my process.

At about 9 PM four hours into it, I decided to pull the plug grab a bite to eat and just stay there overnight in that location cause I knew I had to come back and research the area after talking to him and finding out a little bit more about extending the location.

I woke up there at 6 AM and started my search, because it was early enough in the morning there was a lot to due on the field making it extremely easy for me to grid search and create grid lines in order to see were I was searching. This saved me a lot of time and within the hour I was able to eyeball his beautiful gold pendent in an area kids were playing soccer and well outside the search area I did the night before. A text message, the young man, the picture of the recovery and instantly responded with gratitude… I love my job!
