Lost Platinum Wedding Band Recovered in Laurel, Maryland!

December 15th, 2011 by

People say things like, “three is the charm” and “things come in threes”. If you are a hockey fan like myself you are familiar with the term “Hat Trick”. Any way you put it, it rang true today! I was able to help my third person this year by recovering his lost ring. Speaking of threes, all were platinum wedding rings!

I was contacted by Adam earlier in the week through thefingfinders.com. We made arrangements to……..actually, let Adam tell you in his own words!

In December of 2011, I lost my platinum wedding ring while rough-housing with our 2 dogs in our back yard. I felt my ring slide off of my finger and thought I heard it fall into leaves a few feet away. My wife and  I searched the area on our hands and knees for the next several hours without any luck. We even bought a cheap metal detector to aid our search but couldn’t find it.

I decided to search the internet to see if platinum could actually be detected and came across Jim’s blog.  My wife was skeptical, but I figured it was worth a shot and sent Jim an email to see if he could help. From this point forward I do not have enough positive things to say about Jim. He responded to my email within 20 minutes and was very responsive in all of our exchanges afterwards.

Unfortunately I cannot say the same thing about myself. We had agreed to meet up at 5:00pm. I had trouble leaving work and showed up 10 minutes late. It was dark and slightly rainy but by the time I arrived Jim had already found my ring !

Thanks so much !

-Adam

Ringfinders in the Snow

November 18th, 2011 by

The first day of snow in Kelowna had Shawn Harrison and his wife Karen cleaning his car windshield of snow, once clean he shook his hands and drove away. When he arrived home he realized he had lost his wedding ring, he returned to the location with a metal detector to attempt to find his ring. It was hopeless too many signals to identify his ring, so he called myself at Ringfinders to assist him. On my arrival I found five people with propane torches and rakes searching the area, I joined the group with my detector and began searching, there were many signals but easy  for me to discriminate, after twenty minutes finding three coins and other deep good signals, I located the ring.

Another happy Ringfinders customer who says I saved his marriage.

LOST RING FOUND in Beaverton, Oregon!!

November 7th, 2011 by

Found ring in owner's hand

11/7/11

I was called last night by a man who lost his white gold ring.  He lost it by dropping it off of his apartment deck three days ago.  Fortunately, I had the time to search for it this morning.   He met me at the location where he dropped the ring.  His own searching, including rental of a metal detector, had turned up nothing.  We discussed the possible locations the ring might have gone, although I was almost certain that the ring has settled on the pavement and a passerby undoubtedly scooped it up.

Fortunately, the possible search area of dirt and shrubs was quite small.  Two shallow coins were uncovered immediately.  After 15 minutes of searching, next to a downspout, my Excalibur belted out a strong mid-tone.  Success!  The ring was hidden underneath a leaf.  He was delighted and I was happy as well.

Ali's smile says it all!!

On thursday (the 25th), I received a call from Bill, who wanted to know how the Ring Finders work. After speaking on the phone I arranged to meet Bill at his cottage at Round Lake located near Renfrew. This morning I got up early to feed my little baby boy (1 month old) it was 4h30 in the morning after the feeding i could’nt sleep I was tossing and turning knowing I had the ring search to do and could’nt wait to be there, so I got up at 06h00 and got my gear ready and left at around 7h00. approximately 2 hours later I pulled in to the driveway at the cottage. I met Bill and his lovely wife Ann. After speaking and showing me where the ring was lost, I grabbed my waterproof detector and headed out into the lake. The area was about a meter deep. Bill had put a marker where the ring was lost. I swept the area and decided to move about a meter further to where the marker was, and that familiar sound rang through my earphones, I grabbed my sand scoop plunged into the bottom of the lake, and there at the bottom of my scoop sat a beautiful mens platinum wedding band. Total time to find the ring ??? About 3 minutes. Bill and his wife were happy that the ring was found, he could’nt wait to call his son in Vancouver and announce the great news. If you know anyone who has lost a ring, bracelet chain or any other metallic item that is sentimental..give me a call Stephane of the Ring Finders @ 819-332-3116 Have a great day everyone !

Found Wedding Ring Gatineau Trouvé Bague Gatineau

August 26th, 2011 by

Good Day everyone,
His has been a while since I’ve written for the blog, the ring searches have been really slow. I received 2 phone calls yesterday to do ring searches. The first search was done in Gatineau. Anick had hired me in the past to search for a ring in the thousand island about a year and half ago, to search for her husbands wedding band in the lake. Now it was her turn to search for a wedding rings in the front yard. While playing with her kids, she threw a toy and the rings came flying off the finger into the tall grass. She managed to find the band but no engagement ring. while searching for her rings someone accidently stepped on it and pushed it further into the ground. Anick called me at home and we made an arrangement to search for the ring after supper. Searching the spot she had lost her rings I warmed up my favorite machine my trusty White’s XLT that works like a pro. I swung the coil and within 2 minutes I found the ring. I pinpointed it and moving the grass to its side there was the ring. Anick was extremely happy to have the ring back. Anick lives in a area where there’s alot of trafic, anyone could have spotted the ring and picked it up ! If you know anyone who has lost a ring, bracelet, a chain or any sentimental jewelry please don’t hesitate to call me Stephane the Ring Finder @ 819-332-3116 or email me at stephane.philippe@theringfinders.com Have a great weekend everyone !  I use a White’s XLT for my ring searches please visit www.whiteselectronics.com for great detectors and accessories.

Ottawa Ring Found Trouvé Ottawa Bague

June 9th, 2011 by

Good Evening,
On a beautiful June 5th afternoon, Robin decided to pull the weeds from her front bed of flowers and plants. She was cautious, she removed the rings from her fingers and put them in her pant pocket. Later, her son Chris, stepped out to speak with her, and still being careful not to lose the rings she handed them to her son. While putting the rings in his pant pocket he felt a ring slip out and fall in the grass. The ring bumped from his knee. Robin and Chris searched frantically in the grass but to no avail. She thought about renting a metal detector, but the rental detector out there don’t seem to do a good job on finding lost jewelry. While googling she came across the web site The Ring Finders, and then found my blog page. On the 8th of June before the afternoon, she called me at home and needed my services. By hiring a professional ring searcher, she was in good hands. An appointment was given for the next morning (the 9th), This morning I drove to her home and met her son Chris, the area was shown where the ring was lost. Approximately 20 minutes later the ring was found, outside the grid I had worked. A beautiful family heirloom ring was lost but now found. A story is attached to jewelry, and that story ends when that piece of jewelry is lost…The Ring Finders make that story continue when we are there to search and find the ring. Robin was at work when I found the ring, I will call her later and get her reaction. Here are the pics. I love my job, and seeing the reaction of the people when their rings or other piece of jewelry are found is priceless. Have a great evening everyone !

Sur un beau 5 juin d’après-midi, Robin a décidé de tirer les mauvaises herbes de son parterre en avant e sa maison et des plantes. Prudente, elle a enlevé les anneaux de ses doigts et les a mis dans sa poche de pantalon. Plus tard, son fils Chris, est sorti pour parler avec elle et toujours prudent de ne pas perdre les anneaux elle donne a sont fils. En mettant les anneaux dans sa poche du pantalon il a eu l’impression qu’un anneau est sorti furtivement et est tombé dans l’herbe. L’anneau a buté son genou. Robin et Chris ont cherché frénétiquement dans l’herbe, mais vainement. Elle a pensé en louant un détecteur en métal, mais le détecteur en location ne semble pas faire un bon travail comparer a un detecteur de haute gamme. Elle decide de faire une recherche sur Google et par hasard elle tombe sur le site Internet les Chercheurs d’Anneau et par la suite elle trouve ma page blogue. Le 8 juin en avant midi, elle m’a appelé à la maison et c’est renseigné sur mes services. En engageant un Chercheur d’Anneau professionnel, elle est entre bonnes mains. Un rendez-vous a été donné pour le matin suivant (le 9 Juin), ce matin j’ai conduit ou j’ai rencontré son fils Chris, Il ma montrée l’endroit ou l’anneau a été perdu. Environ 20 minutes plus tard l’anneau a été trouvé, à l’extérieur de la grille de recherche que j’avais travaillé. Une bel bague passez de génération a un autre qui a été perdu a été retrouvé. Une histoire est attachée a un bijoux et cette d’histoire prends fin quand ce bijoux est perdu et avec mes service et mon detecteur de metal de haute gamme je retrouve le bijoux et le remet au propriotaire pour permettre cette histoire de continuer. Robin etait au travail quand j’ai trouvé l’anneau, je l’appellerai plus tard ce soir pour ecouter sa reaction ! Voici les photos. J’aime mon boulot et voir la réaction des gens quand leurs anneaux ou d’autre morceau de bijouterie sont trouvés et remis a eux leur reaction est inestimable. Passez une bel soirée tout le monde et merci pour lire mes blogue !Ayez un soir grand chacun!
