Elaine called me to ask for help finding her husbands wedding ring that was lost “somewhere” either in their home or outside of their house! (That sort of information usually indicates that a thorough search could take hours!) So we met Elaine and her husband Bill and asked lots of questions about the day his ring went missing. Bill had done a bunch of work in one of their rooms…like tearing up old carpeting and hauling it outside along with a big mattress and other items. One thing he did remember was when he was showering he recalled scrubbing his hands with a small scrub brush and while drying off he noticed that his ring was not on his finger. This is his wedding ring that he has worn for 46 years and he rarely takes it off. So we took up the drain cover in the shower thinking that just maybe it fell down the drain while scrubbing his hands and showering. But after running my endoscope down as far as possible and not seeing it we determined it must be somewhere else. We looked outside everywhere that Bill remembered going on that day and then we searched inside as much as possible. It is a large home…10,000 square feet to be exact so there was allot of area and after a few hours we called it quits.

I tried to encourage Bill and Elaine that there is always hope of finding it and not to give up hope. Reminding them to be sure to call me if and when they do find it! And….8 days later I get a call from Elaine saying they found it under a pile of old sheets and curtains that came out of the room that they are remodeling! It is always a pleasure to help folks find and locate their lost item whether I am able to find it myself or help them find it on their own.

Maybe you have lost something and need help….do not delay, call ASAP! 321-363-6029

Carlos and his dear fiancee were taking an evening stroll around their neighborhood and at one point they began tickling each other and in the process lost their stunning diamond engagement ring in the thick St Augustine grass. They knew within feet of where they were standing when she felt her ring come off and began immediately looking to see if they could find it. The grass was so so thick that they began to actually pull the grass up in places to be able to see down to the soil level below. After a few frustrating hours they thought of renting a metal detector but being New Years Day…nothing was open and they continued their Google search. They finally came across Theringfinders.com web site and found one of my stories…that I post after every successful search and recovery! They gave me a call and we met up later that afternoon. It only took a minute or two to actually find their lost engagement ring in the thick grass and the main reason is that they knew almost the exact spot they were standing in when the ring was dropped. That was a tremendous help in making it a quick and successful recovery!

I thank God for allowing me the privilege and opportunity to help Carlos and his beautiful fiancee and to be able to reunite them with their lost ring!

Lost Keys Found in Snow – Pell Lake, WI

  • from Lake Geneva (Wisconsin, United States)
Contact:

On January 12, 2024, a severe winter storm was sweeping its way across southern Wisconsin.  It dumped around 13 inches of heavy, wet snow and shut down schools and businesses.  Bill, like most Wisconsinites, was clearing his driveway and unfortunately lost his set of keys in the process.  This was not a usual set of keys.  It included two key fobs, shop keys, house keys, and a post office box key.  His emergency text went out at 10:00pm to Ringfinder Seth Tost of Lake Geneva, WI.

Ordinarily this might have been a simple search, but Bill did not realize his keys were missing until after he had cleared the snow and pushed it into compacted piles around the perimeter of his driveway, across the road, and 50+ feet down a side road.  The keys could have been anywhere.

Seth got the text the next morning and met up with Bill around 10 am.

Some searches that seem easy, can take a looooong time.  Others that appear to be a losing game from the beginning, end with that miracle find.  Today was that miracle find.  After a little over an hour, giving all areas a cursory scan, and digging through a few piles that seemed most logical, the keys were found about 30 feet down the road from Bill’s driveway.  The next city snowplow may have pushed them miles from this point.  What a joy to return this set of important keys!

Lost Gold Ring Found in the Snow in Ferndale Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

PUSH IT…..

…He pushed it real good and after the car was rockin’ a bit, it finally was unstuck from the snowbank. After Peter climbed back in and shook off the snow he and the wife continued with their errands. Upon arriving home with a sore shoulder, he settled in for the evening and enjoyed a warm meal. Shortly into that meal he noticed his wedding ring missing. Learning that they went to their storage unit during the snowstorm in Detroit area, I told him to chill out, if you catch my drift and I’d be out shortly. After checking their storage unit and where he carried in the groceries with no luck, the only spot left was where the car got stuck. Noticing that a plow had beat me to the location I used my MXT metal detector to search a few hundred feet along the gutter then I searched the curb strip area between the sidewalk and curb.  A few feet in I got a great signal and a meter reading that made sense with his ring type and size. Pinpointing down a few inches and brushing the show and ice chunks aside revealed his thick gold wedding band! I pointed down to the ring and he said, what!? I said this is snow joke man it’s your ring! After picking it from the snow we both agreed that it was a thaw-some recovery as he started to sing fr-eeze a jolly good fellow!

When Carol contacted me, she told of losing her ring in the bushes in her front yard. It had happened the day before, but knowing it was in her yard the chances of someone coming across it was very slim, so we arranged a search for the next day.

I got to Carol’s house at the appointed time and she came out to show me what had happened. She had been standing on her porch while some friends were leaving, and then waved. With a flick of the wrist, her ring flew off of her finger, and into the plants adjacent to the porch. There were some thick plants, and some ground cover, but well groomed, and not a lot of leaves under them. She showed me how the ring came off, so I began the search in the most obvious area. I looked all the way out to the neighbor’s fence, not really knowing how hard the wrist flick was, but wasn’t having any luck. Having exhausted all the far away possibilities, I began moving closer to the porch until I was at the last plant nearest the porch. This plant was very dense with vertical leaves, so I used my pin pointer to poke into the deep chambers of the stalks. I got one good signal, and ended up with a construction screw. I continued on, receiving another signal. It was deep down inside the plant. I couldn’t see what it was, but my pin pointer was not letting me down. I kept probing, and moving the stalks around, and then there it was; I had found Carol’s ring. I let her know right away, and she was very happy to have it back. Another great recovery!

Ring found under the snow in the Kansas City Metro Area

  • from Saint Joseph (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

I got a text from David and Kaylee about his wedding ring that was lost in the snow. Their mailbox is down at the bottom of a snow covered 45 deg. incline that’s about 20 long. He slipped coming up the snow covered hill after getting the mail and  put his hand in the snow to catch himself, the ring vanished.

After a few minutes of finding metallic trash (nails, pull tabs, etc.), I scanned a snow covered area with my Minelab 900 and a 75 popped up on the display. After moving some snow out of the way, I spotted the tantalum wedding band.

Ringing In The New Year 2024, By Dave Milsted

  • from South Jersey (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

 

I am not using the real names of this couple. I will call them Betty & Barney Rubble. Barney called me to see if I could help find some lost jewelry. He was referred to me by Fellow Ring Finder/Treasure Hunter Ed Cropski (he was out of town for the weekend). I work with a core group of excellent detectorists with much experience. If one of us gets a call and can’t make it, we give it to someone in our group.
Barney said his wife got very angry and walked out the back door to their deck, and Bam-Bam threw 2 silver bracelets, a gold wedding ring, and a gold engagement ring. Doing his own reconnaissance, he found 1 of the bracelets. I was near the neighbor’s fence beside a pile of wood rubble, reminding me of a gravel pit. The other 3 items are still missing.
Betty was out on their deck in the area where she was when she threw her jewelry. She looked very sad. After reviewing the angle of where Barney found the first bracelet and the scene, I told Barney that gold rings would travel farther than the lighter bracelet. I asked if his neighbors were okay with me searching their backyard. He said yes that he contacted them after our phone call. Betty went inside.
I started searching the neighbor’s yard. There were a lot of signals. There is a newer deck, and I was finding a ton of wood screws that are used in deck building. After about 12 minutes of searching, I started to look under the deck. I almost immediately found the engagement ring. It was under the deck. From where Betty threw the jewelry and the angle of where the ring was, it had to go through the open-backed stairs from the ground to the deck; if I threw it, it would have bounced off one of the steps. Lucky throw.
I intensified my search under the deck. It took another minute or two to find the missing bracelet. At this point, Barney had no idea I found either item. I asked him if he could hold my pinponter. He came over, and I held out my hand and dropped the engagement ring & bracelet into his hand. The look in his eyes was priceless.
I asked Barney if he would search on the deck for the other ring while I searched on the ground. I didn’t feel right searching up there with all of the windows. The neighbors know Barney, not me.
About 5 minutes went by, and Barney was standing next to me. He held out his hand that held the missing ring. My hunch paid off; it was laying on some covered furniture on the deck. He enjoyed the thrill of making the discovery.
Betty came out on their deck as I talked to Barney in the driveway. I told her to come down & get her jewelry. She was grinning from ear to ear. Barney and Betty are happy once again in Bedrock.
I love my hobby!!

WHIPPANY, N.J. — During yesterday’s snowstorm in NJ, a couple contacted me late in the evening after they lost their keys in the snow. Early this morning, I headed out to the field where they last saw them and began gridding out the field.  Despite the snow and wind, 45 minutes into the search, the keys were located.  Happy to deliver this service to my neighbors and ecstatic that I was able to get this couple back on their way.

Eva called saying she had lost two rings. She called immediately after realizing they were gone, and I let her know that I would come as soon as possible knowing that time is the enemy of a successful search.

When I got to the beach Eva said that she had not moved from the area where she believed the rings were lost, and I could see the search grid that she had already been made looking for them. I donned my equipment, and began my search, and it wasn’t long before I had one of her rings in the scoop. I knew the other wasn’t far away. A couple more swings of the detector, one more scoop of sand, and Eva’s second ring was found. She was very happy to have them back again. Her smile tells it all.
