My neighbor saw me in the yard and called me over. He knew I did a lot of metal detecting and began to tell me about his daughter loosing a ring 3 weeks ago that he had given her. I went back and got my detector and the search was on! I saw a sterling ring in about my third hole and it ended up not being the one she lost! After about another 15 minutes of looking BAM I found her ring she had lost. She ended up with 2 rings!
Got a call from a farmer, that lets me metal detect on his property, and he tells me he lost his ring in the field after cleaning his hands. He looked for it for a while with no luck so he gave me a call. The ring was recovered in a short time! He was one happy farmer!
Jeff took his ring off to put on suntan lotion and put it in his hat and forgot. It was not until he was in the water before he remembered. After he got home he found my information on theringfinders.com website and texted me. On my first trip I could not find it after searching 2 hours. Before I returned Jeff sent me a pic he took on the beach which helped me locate the area. It only took about 20 minutes the second time.
I got a call that Jena that she had put her ring in her pants pocket and when she took her pants off the ring was gone. She did all the right things by marking off the area it was lost and staying right there. It took about 4 swings and there it was! Another smile to make my day.
We get a joy out of returning lost items. Sometimes we just find lost items on the beach and hunt the owners down. This was the case with this cell phone. When I found it it was dead but after charging it opened up and was not locked. I was able to retrieve the number and call and I shipped it back to the owner. Another win!
Got a text through the ring finder website about a lost gold band. The couple was on vacation from Ohio and were out in the water yesterday and lost it. After I arrived I was told it was her deceased mother’s gold wedding band which is irreplaceable! I had to find it. The water was very rough and the waves were not being friendly. After recovering a moving can I got a good signal and it was in the right number range. It took about 8 minutes on that one target but persistence paid off! Her mother is smiling tonight too!
Got a call from a fellow Ring Finder that could not respond to this lost necklace request and I contacted the owner and set up a meeting. The owner (Rodney) decided to do a flip at the beach in 4 foot of water! The necklace was lost. Sometimes chains can be difficult to find but not one this BIG! After about 15 minutes I knew I had a good hit. I showed it to Rodney in the Xtreme scoop and he was ecstatic! I found out that the medallion and necklace was given to him by his friend the basketball star Allen Iverson and it was appraised 14 years ago for over $13,000! My most expensive gold find! Over 107 grams of white gold with over 4 carats of diamonds! Video will be on Gigmaster on youtube in about a week.
I was messaged by Caroline about a lost ring in Va Beach. Her friend found me from my channel on youtube (Gigmaster). She actually sent me pictures where if was lost and a general location. On day one I searched but did not have any luck and the stinging nettles were coming after me! On day 2 Caroline was going to meet me but was delayed so I ventured back out in the water and found it before she arrived. I was able to surprise here with the find.
We may not always get a call and we don’t limit our search to rings. On this occasion I found a pair of prescription glasses and started asking people in the area if anyone lost their glasses. I found a guy that said his dad had lost his not long ago. They were his! He was very grateful and was wondering how he was going to drive back home without his glasses!
