Lost Mens 10kt Gold Wedding Band Found At Dewey Beach Delaware

  • from Lewes (Delaware, United States)
Contact:

On 06/02/2022, I received a call from Holly regarding the loss of a 10kt Gold Wedding Band belonging to her husband Timmothy. Holly said that Timmothy had lost his ring on 05/30/2022 on the beach at Dewey Beach, Delaware while he was shaking the sand off of a towel. Holly said that she and Timmothy had just gotten married and that his ring was a little loose on his finger. Holly said that they had rented a metal detector to try to find the lost ring and that they were not able to locate it. Holly also said that they had help from a local resident who volunteered to help look for the ring with his metal detector and that the ring was still not able to be found. Holly requested that I make an attempt to find the missing wedding band, she also said that they were leaving to go back home. I told Holly that I would try to find the ring later in the day and that I would let her know the outcome of the search. Holly was able to provide me with a photograph of her standing on the beach in the area that the ring was lost in. The picture also included a fence that gave me a reference as to where she was on the beach. Upon arriving at the beach later in the day I began a search of the area that was in the picture that Holly had sent to me, the search ended with the ring not being located. I then decided to expand the search area and began a search of the area to the north of the original search area. After just a few swings of my detector I was able to locate the missing ring on the wet sand slope about two inches down in the sand. I then sent Holly a picture of the recovered ring to let her know that it had been found. Two days later I mailed the ring back to Holly as she had requested.

Cedar Creek Lake – Platinum and Diamond Ring Missing

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

Well, this was our 2nd attempt to find this $5,400 Platinum Ring with Diamonds. The owner had called and explained that the motor on his small 12-foot boat quit on him just 2 docks from his home.  His boat was still slowly moving in the water while he attempted to restart the engine and after several hard pulls on the start cord (with no luck) his anger increased. He jerked the starting cord one last time and as he did he felt his ring fly off into the water. He felt he knew exactly where the ring went down but after an exhaustive water search with both our Garrett ATPro and our Excalibur II in the deeper water area(s) we cleared every signal with no luck.  We scanned every area 4 to 5 times.

The only thing we can say is that possibly we were in the wrong location(?). With the boat moving and the anger seeping in along with the strength of the last jerk on the cord, that ring could be anywhere in a 50ft by 300ft area in black water.

I believe when we go back, and we will go back, we will extensively widen out our search area… it’s got to be there…we will find it.

We do not always win but we will give our all to every search.

Prepper Father-n- Law Dies leaving hundreds of Buried Silver Coins

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

We got a call early this morning from a gentleman who said that his father-in-law passed away recently.  His father-in-law was a serious Prepper, he was heavily fortified and heavily stocked in every area of life.  He said 6 or 7 years ago he had shown he and his wife a Google Earth photo showing where he had buried Multiple Boxes of 500 coins each and many packages of 100 silver coins in plastic ammo containers.

He and his family had spent 8-10 hours digging in the known places and discovered many boxes of silver everything from 6 inches to 36 inches in depth.  They were exhausted and needed help.  They rented a metal detector but it did not work well for them so they went searching and found the Dallas Ring Finders.

Ellen and I drove out as soon as we got the call. It was 161 miles one way to reach the location.  We reached the home, met the family and were shown around the property and shown the 4 potential locations of the Silver coins.  Just want to say it was 103 degrees today.  We went to work with our Garrett ATPro metal detectors and Pinpointers.

The ground was really just pure sand, very easy to dig.  We were able to scan the boxes of Silver that they had found the day before to get our search signals and searched for 3 hours, digging dozens of holes.  The challenge was there was so much metal debris all over the search areas…   (NOTE:  history tells us that people who buried things sometimes scatter scrap metal all over their buried items to discourage metal detectorists from digging).

I am not going to disclose what we found but we may be returning for further digging and possibly bring a small backhoe to take off the top 2-3 feet of soil to make it a little easier to detect.

Suggestion, if you or someone in your family buries things on their property, please, please, please make a map or show someone where your items are so that everything can be recovered when you’re gone.

Awesome day helping a family who was completely overwhelmed.

Lost ring in Coronado Found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Brandon was enjoying the beach with his young son. He dutifully applied sunscreen after taking his wedding ring off and placing it in his lap. His son started heading for the water, so, Brandon got up to chase after him. Off went the ring somewhere in the fluffy dry sand where it disappeared. An online search brought Brandon to TheRingFinders.com where he found me. After getting the particulars, I agreed to fight the traffic and parking on a holiday weekend to meet up with him at the site. As expected, traffic and parking were troublesome. Add a HUGE, miles long, bicycle cruise in town, and I had a real fun time getting there, and especially leaving! I think at the time I got the last paid parking spot at the Hotel Del Coronado. After that, it was pretty much a breeze. I met Brandon out on the beach, he showed me the search area, and a few minutes later, the ring was in the scoop. A pleasure to meet you Brandon, and thank you for the reward.

Tungsten Carbide Wedding Band Lost on Sykesville, Maryland Estate…Found

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)

Thad’s handsome tungsten carbide wedding band found by member of THE RING FINDER’S, Brian Rudolph.

Thad shows off his most sentimental keepsake after professional metal detectorist Brian Rudolph recovered the wedding band in his client’s front yard.

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses & Vehicles) Will Find Your Lost Keepsake! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

Thad called me up in the early evening hours hoping that I would be able to help him find his lost tungsten carbide wedding band. The young man found my information on the elite international metal detectorist directory called THE RING FINDERS. He had already tried searching for it for three hours with a metal detector but he still couldn’t recover the special keepsake.

My client had been married for 8 years and this ring meant the world to both he and his wife Jessica. When Thad first talked to me on the phone, he sounded like he was about to cry. Tears were welling up inside and the desperate man was literally crying out for help.

The ring was lost while Thad was hanging out in his front yard with his dog. At some point while making a certain « flicking » motion with his hand, the band presumably flew off and the rest of the story became a mystery for Thad and « Jess ».

Though I was exhausted after conducting a huge search on a soccer field in Urbana, Maryland and still knowing that I would have to pack my things and wake up early the next morning to drive to Washington DC to take a train bound for New York City, I promised Thad that I would do the search for him that night. He was so very grateful. I declared to the fellow, « I will find your ring, and you’ll be wearing it tonight ». Thad was beyond hopeful at that moment.

I arrived at Thad’s beautiful property sometime around 10:30pm at night. After gathering up my gear, Thad immediately took me over to the front yard where he showed me where he thought he lost his precious sentimental keepsake.

Once I acquired all of the necessary information about the ring and the approximate area where the wedding band most likely had been lost, I set up my grid lanes and began to detect. With my high lumens headlamp on, it took me no more than 2 minutes or so to pick up a decent target signal coming from around the third grid lane, I believe.

I knew that this had to be my client’s ring with what my detector was registering on its screen. Immediately, I knelt down, took out my pinpointer (a handheld detector) and narrowed in on the object that was hidden in the grass. Just as I used my fingers to track and identify the surface target, my eyes locked in on Thad’s tungsten carbide wedding band! It had been resting just beside a very small tree that had recently been planted by the couple. The rim of my detector’s coil barely made contact with the handsome jewel, but I was still able to successfully identify its whereabouts!

I could not have been happier for Thad and Jess! He couldn’t believe how fast I was able to recover the lost wedding ring and my client was extremely emotional filled with words of gratitude and praise!

Thad’s three hours of no success verses my successful results in ten to fifteen minutes was no competition indeed! Thad’s choice to call a professional metal detectorist to finally garner the results he was desperately looking for was certainly a no brainer!

Gold Signet Ring Lost for Four Years-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I received a call from Mike on Tuesday 28th and he said he had lost his gold signet ring in his backyard several years ago.  He said they were moving and the ring was a gift from his wife and he really wanted to find it before they moved.  We made arrangements for Wednesday afternoon.  Around four years ago he had been clearing brush in the backyard and towards the end of the day he noticed his ring was gone.  They had been piling the brush next to the street on the side yard, so that’s where I started my search.  I really didn’t think the ring would be there, but I had to eliminate that area of possibility.  The huge problem I had to deal with was underground power lines next to the street, (around 14 KV), and it was really messing with my detector.  I had to go very slow in that area until I got far enough away that my detector started to settle down a little.  After a little over an hour I finally eliminated the side yard.  The back of the house had a pretty steep slope that was covered in pine straw mulch.  I know from experience that pine straw on a slope can be very slippery.  He had mentioned that he had slipped a couple of times on that slope, but didn’t remember exactly where that happened.  That’s where I focused my attention next, and after I looked at it more carefully, towards the corner of the house the slope wasn’t quite as steep, so I figured anybody coming through that area would would pick that spot.  As I got halfway down the slope I got a consistent 12:20 on my CTX, and it was shallow, (showing one inch).  If you’re looking for a gold ring that’s a very good signal.  I brushed the straw away and didn’t see anything visible, but my pinpointer said there was something there just under the surface.  I brushed the soil a little with my fingers and saw the corner of a gold rim showing through!  I called Mike over, as he was just about to go back in the house.  His wife came out and she was elated!  She said she figured it was gone and never to be found again.  I think I was as excited as they were, because that was a tough search having to deal with the underground power lines.  Knowing your machine, and asking the right questions makes all the difference.  The entire search took around two hours.

Ring Lost in Coronado Found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)

Zari spent the day at the beach in Coronado, and when she was ready to go home, noticed her wedding ring/engagement ring combo was missing off her finger. She wasn’t sure if it came off in the dry sand building sand castles, or, out in the water where she was tumbled by a wave after introducing her daughter to her first experience in the surf. After an online search and finding TheRingFinders.com and my info, she contacted me Tuesday evening for help. Since there was a strong possibility that the ring could be in the water, I told Zari that it would be best if I conducted the search at the next low tide, which was at 4:38am the next morning. I had her send me some photos of her location on the beach along with a photo of the rings. Upon arrival the next morning at 2:30am, I triangulated the photos to get me on ground zero. Unfortunately, I discovered grid marks all over the sand in the area of where she had been camped the previous day and they lead down the slope toward the water. Not a good sign! Looks like someone has been there recently, but, that’s a very popular section of beach, so, not completely unexpected. I looked down the beach in both directions, and the grid marks are only 50 feet either way of ground zero. Nowhere else on the beach!  WTF? I’m thinking that someone somehow knew there must be a lost ring there. Well, I was already there, so, I may as well give it a try. I hit the dry sand first and didn’t get a single good target other than one zinc cent. Ok, off to the water. I made 4-5 passes into the surf without a single target. On the sixth pass just as I turned to head back up slope from shin deep water, I get a nice solid 10 on the Equinox, One scoop and I had the ring! I texted Zari with the good news, but, didn’t expect or get a response until later in the morning. After a bit of sleep, got up, and went off to another detecting adventure that morning, I arranged with Zari to meet later in the day and get the ring back on her finger. A pleasure to meet you and thank you for the reward.

Lost Range Rover Key Fob…Found in Baltimore, Maryland

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)

Moe’s Very Expense 2020 Range Rover Key Fob Missing for 2 Months was Found by Item Recovery Specialist Brian Rudolph!

Moe’s Wife, Pamela, Smiling from Ear to Ear After Item Recovery Specialist Brian Rudolph, Member of THE RING FINDERS, Finds Range Rover Key Fob!

Call Item Recovery Specialist Brian Rudolph at (301) 466-8644! He Will Find Your Lost Vehicle’s Key Fob along with Rings, Smartphones and Other Jewelry in All Kinds of Environments: Land, Water, Sand, Cliffs, Snow, Leaves, Houses & Vehicles!

I received a call from a young lady named Pamela who lived in in Baltimore, Maryland. She was contacting me on behalf of her husband Moe who lost his 2020 Range Rover key fob after coming home from a March Madness party nearby. After getting out of his vehicle, he made his way to the house, opened the front door with his house key and then proceeded to go into the family room where he greeted his wife and then watched TV until he fell asleep on the couch. The next morning, Moe looked everywhere for his key fob and was not able to find it anywhere. The first place he looked was his jean’s pockets, but they were completely empty. Hours upon hours went by and the poor guy could not find the fob anywhere in the house or outside on the lawn. His wife Pamela helped in the search and even she could not pull the rabbit out of its hat! The nearly brand-new Range Rover would end up sitting in the driveway for another two months before their cry for help came my way.

Pamela had contacted me because she was interested in renting a metal detector. Instead, I convinced the woman to hire me to come out to their property and help the couple find the missing key fob instead of wasting her money and time with a rental. The next day, I drove to Baltimore, Maryland where I met up with Pamela at their house. As soon as I arrived, my client greeted me and took me over to the Range Rover in the driveway. It was unlocked so I was able to search the vehicle to make sure that the remote had not been dropped somewhere under or around the front seats. I used my endoscope to search all of the corners and spaces where the naked eye would not be able to see within. Though I did not find the missing fob at that point, I did recover a gold chain that was buried under the driver side seat.

When I was certain that the electronic device was not in the vehicle, I metal detected the front lawn just in case Moe had dropped the fob as he walked across the grass leading to the front porch. Unfortunately, there was no “clicker” hidden or buried on that section of the property.

As soon as I concluded that the yard was clear of the key fob, I did a quick search of the front porch (which contained a number of things placed on top of its concrete slab). It didn’t take long for me to once again conclude that the fob was not in that location of the house. It was at that point that Pamela authorized me to search the couple’s family room where Moe had retired for the night on that dreadful March evening.

The only place that I could search in the family room was the couch and the recliner. Moe had fallen asleep on one part of the sectional couch but I didn’t find anything with my endoscope in that piece of furniture. I continued to analyze all of the other sections of the sofa, as well as the recliner, but I ended up being convinced that the very expensive Range Rover remote was not hidden anywhere in the family room furniture.

Pamela insisted that there were no other places in the home that the fob could have ended up since Moe had not gone anywhere else on the first floor upon him coming home from the party that night. We both concluded that this missing item would end up as an unsolved mystery since there were no other places for me to search.

I packed up my things in the family room and headed out of the front door towards my vehicle to retrieve my credit card payment device. Just as I opened the front door, I looked straight down towards the very left corner of the porch and immediately I could not believe what my eyes were staring at! Behind a broom, there rested on the concrete slab…the missing Range Rover key fob! I was in complete utter shock! Though I had checked the slab, I did not look behind the broomstick that was leaning up against that corner of the porch! For the past two months, that missing fob had just been sitting there in the corner right next to the front door! I couldn’t wait at that moment to share the amazing news with the bewildered wife who was not particularly happy with her husband’s absentmindedness!

After I returned back to the house once I retrieved my credit card reader, I gave Pamela the surprise of her life! She nearly fainted in her house when I revealed the amazing news that I have found the long sought after electronic item! She could not believe where I had found it! She was beyond shocked that it had been resting there on the floor of the porch just inches from the front door that the couple had been walking in and out of for the past 60 days! All that time, It had been laying there literally underneath their noses!

I made my client the happiest woman that evening and she couldn’t stop thanking me and acknowledging how wise she was to hire an item recovery specialist rather than to rent a metal detector that would have been completely useless! It turned out to be yet another fantastic finish written in the annals of my metal detecting journal pages! How sweet that evening was!

Successful Recovery Mission: Lost Promise Ring Found at Oxnard Beach

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)

Late Monday evening, I received a distressing text from Kaitlyn, seeking assistance in locating a lost promise ring submerged in the surf and wet sand at Oxnard Beach. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, I agreed to undertake the recovery operation early Tuesday morning, capitalizing on the favorable low tide conditions. Armed with their recollection of the approximate location, I embarked on a meticulous three-hour grid search of the designated area. However, despite my efforts, the ring remained elusive.

Undeterred, Kaitlyn and her boyfriend Flavio decided to join forces with me, hoping to improve our chances of success. Early Wednesday morning, Flavio and I returned to the beach, revisiting the same area while taking into account the subtle changes in the landscape caused by shifting sands. Despite expanding our search parameters and meticulously combing the vicinity, our efforts initially proved fruitless. Determined not to concede defeat, I explored alternative areas, including the slope and high tide line.

It was during the painstaking search along the high tide line that my metal detector signaled a potential discovery. With bated breath, I excavated the sand, and to our collective relief, the lost promise ring emerged from its sandy concealment. Flavio, unaware of the successful retrieval, was pleasantly surprised when I presented him with the recovered ring.

This experience underscores the importance of perseverance and the value of seeking professional assistance in recovering lost jewelry. Just as Kaitlyn did, don’t hesitate to reach out immediately at 805-290-5009, and let us initiate the process of reclaiming your cherished possessions.
