Special ring lost, found and returned in Aurora

It’s that time of year! ❄️🌨️Lynette was cleaning off her car the other day and felt her ring fall off. She said she tried so hard to find it. It was a ring given to her by her parents when she was 16 and has worn it every day since. So you can imagine how special this was to her. I bundled up drove 40 minutes and met her at her location. After she showed me what happened I grabbed my gear and told her she didn’t have to wait out here with me in the cold. She went inside, I swung my detector maybe 5 times and got a low faint signal. It was buried in the snow in the rocks next to her car. It was so helpful that she knew when it fell off, it aided in the 3 minute search! Seeing Tears of joy always warms my heart. Worth the nearly 1.5 drive time 😊

“I found you” 🥹
I woke up to a phone call from Jaime after working my night shift today. He explained he was practicng football drills in a park with his 15 year old son yesterday and realized he had lost his rose gold wedding ring. He was recenlty married and was worried his wife was going to be really upset so He bought a metal detector from Amazon for around $100. He didn’t really know what he was doing with it though and asked if I could help him. When I got there he had cones already set up where they were running the drills and he said he was 99% sure he lost it in that area. He stayed to help me for a little bit and I can tell he was getting the hang of the detector. He asked me what sensitivity I was using. 😆 so he must’ve of googled some info. After almost 2 hours I found the ring…not where he thought he lost it. Probably about another 8-10’ away off the grid.
I am finding that when they say 99% sure it really means only about 20-25% are right about that.
He has the sweetest inscription I think I’ve seen yet “I found you” ❤️

Lost wedding ring in Denver found and returned!

This gentleman lost his wedding band in a busy Denver park while playing with his dog. It was loose already and he was meaning to get it sized, unfortunately not before the day he lost it. After gridding the areas of possibilities with pin flags I went to work. After almost 2 hours and about half way through the grid, I got a perfect signal 73 on the Deus. I looked down and there it was camouflaged in dead grass. Exposed for anyone that would be looking for it. Need less to say he has made arrangements to make sure it fits properly.

Lost ring found, Littleton, Colorado

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)
Contact:

I got a call from a young lady in distress because her beautiful engagement ring flew off her hand in the dark. Thankfully it was in her backyard. The large yard was overgrown, some parts over a foot of grass. To recreate the scene I tied a ring of similar weight to her ring to a string and had her “throw” it a few times in the direction she thought it could have gone. I marked the “string ring” with pin flags. After a few tosses I gridded off an area that I thought would be best. After about 3 minutes at the furthest pin flag I got a beautiful signal with my Deus. Deep in the grass was her beautiful ring! We were both surprised on how quickly I found it. It really paid off taking time to do the “string ring” method.

Emma lost her class ring while paying with her sister and dog in their neighborhood park in Thornton, Colorado. She believed she was taking out a dog poop bag when she lost it. It was found in the middle of the park field. Emma’s mom picked up her ring for her but she sent me a pic of herself later wearing it!

Lost ring a month ago found and returned! Littleton, Colorado

Alex lost her late uncles ring a MONTH ago and nearly gave up. A walk with her sister and several dogs in the park is where she lost it. She had gone back several times to find it herself, hung signs with no answers. This morning after work I met her and she showed me the path she took and the stop to pick up dog poop. I found it just under the mud. It must’ve been pushed down with the rain and foot traffic. She hugged me several times and said I was an “angel” 😇

Cartier wedding band returned to new groom! Denver

Brady was married 3 weeks ago and lost his Cartier gold wedding band in a Denver park while running. I searched Friday night with no luck and no access to the soccer field due to games. I came back the next day and found it in the soccer field. Brady was so happy he was running across the field to me fist pumping, reminding me of John Bender in The Breakfast Club. And from that point on I couldn’t get Don’t you forget about me by the Simple Minds out of my head. Thanks Brady.

Erin was visiting friends here in Colorado from Chicago over the weekend. They decided to spend some time in the very popular “Wash park” in Denver. They laid out a blanket and Erin decided to take the rings off to put lotion on. She had set them on the blanket and forgot about them. They were a Norte Dame class ring and a Claddaugh ring. As they were leaving they shook the blanket off and packed up. She was already on her way back to Chicago when she realized th

Ring found and returned in Superior, Colorado!

Breanna lost her beautiful engagement ring in a large park while working out. Her workout spanned from the playground through the vast field and small hills while doing a band workout that included bear crawls. My partner Jeff and I spent a combined 27 hours searching before I ran across it. The couple even went out and bought their own detector to try to find it. On day 3 I decided to do a grid search since the area was so large. I had 2 steps left before I was going to call it a day when my detector screamed at me. I looked down I saw it shimmering through the thick grass. When I told Breanna she was in disbelief as was her fiancé. This was a very stressful long weekend for them that turned and hopefully someday be a great story. It really did take awhile for it to sink it that it was found. Happy tears, here’s to many happy years !

Recovered wedding set in Lochbuie, Colorado

  • from Lakewood (Colorado, United States)

I got a call from a young woman who lost her wedding set. She put her rings in her pant pocket, set her pants down to change to go into her pool. While she was in her pool her dog grabbed her pants and took them from the backyard around to the front of the house. She had a good idea of where they might be. When I arrived the entire yard was xeriscaped and under construction. There were roofing nails, screws and all kinds of building material everywhere. I started where she thought they could be which was in the front yard, with no success. On the side of the house there was a patch of hay and random trash, building material etc. After many signals from nails and screws I got a solid signal in the hay pile. One ring found….about 2 feet away in the hay was the other. She was so surprised I had found it so quickly, honestly so was I. Most of that time was trying to get the dog away from playing with the detector coil. 🙂 She was shy and did not want to show her face but was happy to model on her hand.
