Lost Diamond Ring Found in Cumberland RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

On February 25th, I received a somewhat frantic call from Lisa.  Her custom-made diamond wedding ring-band had been missing for two weeks.  It was last seen in a bathroom drawer in their house, and Lisa and her husband had been combing the house since that time.  They assumed that their two-year old son had hidden the ring somewhere in the house or that he may have thrown it out of an open second-story window in his room.  Lisa had learned of The Ring Finders from a friend and asked for my help with the search.  I covered the area in the backyard directly under the window without any success.  I also suggested that the ring may have landed on an eave or its gutter just below the second floor windows but would have needed a ladder of over twenty-feet to reach the area.  We moved our search into the house, trying to imagine where a toddler would hide a ring.  After searching through closets, drawers, under furniture, etc., I saw her son trying to stuff something through a small space in his parents’ bedroom window and suggested that he may have done the same with her ring.  We opened the bedroom window, and Lisa hung out the window to check the eave and gutter, while I made sure that she didn’t fall out.  She was shocked and ecstatic to find her ring on the eave right under the window.

Houston Police Department’s Dive Team and Metal Detecting by John Volek TRF-Houston

Houston Police Department’s Dive Team and Metal Detecting (Land and Sea) by John Volek TRF-Houston

Houston’s Dive Team had just received four new Garrett Sea Hunter Metal Detectors and were looking for some in-service training on their operation. We scheduled a two day training plan that would cover both land and water operations.

Training Day 1:
Our training focus for this course was the Garrett Sea Hunter Metal Detector, and it’s operational use both on land and water. The primary focus for the new Sea Hunters was to assist the dive team in the recovery of criminal evidence.

The break down was as follows…
Day 1 spend a couple of hours in the classroom discussing the Sea Hunter and then move immediately into with hands on training with the detectors.

 

 

 

 

Day 2

One day later, these guys are pulling evidentiary items out a lake in near zero visibility…it was simply extraordinary and speaks volumes of the character of the officers on this team. The Garrett Sea Hunter manual states 100 hours are needed to become proficient in the detector’s operation. These guy’s crushed it after just a few hours of hands on training.

 

 

 

The Houston Police Department’s Dive team’s cohesiveness was very impressive and their Scuba Diving capabilities and knowledge were extraordinary to say the least. 

 

Metal Detector Training at its finest…

These guys are a solid blue line…make no mistake.

Texas A&M Class Ring Lost in the Grass of a home in Houston, Texas (found) by John Volek TRF-Houston, Texas.

I was contacted by Trevor regarding his lost Texas A&M Class ring in the front yard of his residence in Houston. Trevor reported while participating in some activities in his front yard he took off his ring and put it in the pocket of his gym shorts. Trevor said at the conclusion of the event he realized the ring was missing from his pocket. He reported he and his friends spent several hours searching for the ring, which eventually led him to renting a metal detector. With no success, Trevor searched the internet and found The Ring Finders and placed the call.

Lost anniversary ring recovered in Redmond after Washington snowstorm!

  • from Seattle (Washington, United States)

Hello everyone, my name is Jason Anderson and I just wanted to use my first post to introduce myself and my services. I am a very determined detectorist and am looking forward to helping reunite you with your lost items in the greater Seattle/Bellevue/Eastside areas.

I am available to hunt for all kinds of lost items, not just rings… and I can travel further for searches on a case-by-case basis. I can even do shallow water hunts if need be.

My first case as a Ringfinder occurred this week after Washington got a bit of a snow storm. A woman had lost her rings in the snow after taking her wet gloves off. She was understandably upset and very hopeful I could help find her rings. I was able to travel to her city the next morning and it proved to be a difficult hunt in the snow… but I found her gold & diamond anniversary band! The other ring was still out there but it was getting dark so I scheduled a return trip to continue searching.

Before I could return, the snow quickly melted in the rain and luckily a neighbor found the remaining ring! All’s well that ends well! She was ecstatic and so am I!

Just remember, if you lost your ring or any other metal items that are important to you: Don’t give up hope, and time is of the essence! Give me a call or email me please! I want to help you find your rings, and your smiles! 🙂

Lost Keys found in East Providence, RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

Today, I received a call from Nick asking for my help in finding his keys.  They were lost in the snow after a storm that dropped a foot of snow. Nick had the keys in his pocket when he started snow blowing. After he finished, the keys were missing, and Nick had no idea where to begin. He decided to search the internet for help and found me through The Ring Finders website.  I searched his yard and found the keys in about ten minutes. As you can tell,  Nick was very happy to have his keys back!

Texas Aggie Ring Lost Found Returned!

  • from Kerrville (Texas, United States)

         

Wednesday evening I received a call from Karen who said she found me by looking for Fredericksburg, TX. Metal Detector on Google. Karen told me that after removing brush and leaves from their yard to a burn pile her husband, Royce, noticed his Texas Aggie Ring was missing.  She asked if I could possibly help locate it. Being a Texan I asked her how big the yard was and if she had a good idea where it could have been lost. She answered “the yard is large but the area it might be in was only about a half an acre or so”. I said to her “If it’s in the yard then I will find it!” Knowing how important an Aggie ring is to a graduate of Texas A&M I made an appointment to meet with them today.

I decided to take my 9 year old grandson, Jake, with me on this recovery. After picking him up from school we headed over to their place east of Fredericksburg. Upon arrival at the house and after introductions were made we walked the different areas of the property that they had worked in. Well, the area was much larger than ½ acre and was spread out to about 100 yards from the house. I asked the investigative questions determining what, how, when, where. I came to the conclusion that the Aggie Ring could be anywhere in about a two acre area. Unfortunately Royce could not recall exactly where he happened to take off his gloves that day. With that in mind, Jake (he has his own detector and knows how to use it) and I “suited” up. I instructed him to start around the burn pile and I started  the yard area around the house. Knowing the lost gold ring was going to be big and on the surface I concentrated high tones. After about 25 minutes of swinging my Garrett AT Pro I received the unmistakable “BIG gold tone” in my headphones. Luck was with us! Reaching down and parting the grass was Royce’s huge Aggie ring. I waved to Jake to come over to where I was,  Royce must have sensed our excitement as he headed over to where we were. He gave out a big Aggie WHOOP and danced around for a while! Royce got Karen and we all did some dancing and hugging (Jake too)!

It sure was great to meet Royce and Karen and it was an honor to recover Royce’s lost ring for him. It was just as exciting to have Jake involved in the return. He and I had high fives and smiles all the way home. He sure has a story to tell his classmates in school tomorrow. Thanks goes to Royce and Karen for contacting TheRingFinders.com and for the handsome reward. Jake will get his share and the rest will go towards more metal detecting equipment for both of us.

Remember, if you lose your ring, jewelry, keys or other valuables just call a member of TheRingFinders.com. Each member is a highly skilled metal detectorists and will do their very best to get your item back to you!

Lost Platinum Wedding Ring Recovered in Raleigh N.C. on 1/30/17

  • from Hillsborough (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

This morning on 1/30/17 , I was contacted by a gentleman about his wedding ring he had lost while at a local soccer park yesterday with his son. We discussed the lost ring and all the details of where he had lost it and how.. After speaking to him I agreed to meet him at the park today to do the search and find his ring.. I assured him it would be a easy search and I would be able to find his ring since he was sure of the area he lost it in.. That’s also assuming nobody already found it and picked it up which happens a lot.

When I got there it was around 1:00 pm and I gave him a call to let him know i was there like we had agreed. While I was waiting for him to get there to walk me through everything that happened when he lost the ring I decided to start my investigation and search early to see if I could locate it. I got my long range electroscope called the fieldscope out of my truck and my detector. I started scanning the area with my fieldscope to see if I could get a lock on it. Right away I started picking up the hits. I followed the line in on the hits and used my detector for conformation to locate the ring. I was able to locate the ring in about 5 minutes of searching with the help of my fieldscope / electroscope. The ring was recovered in the center of the soccer field before he even arrived. I was happy to be able to help him out.
