Texas A&M Class Ring Lost during a little softball practice, found by John Volek TRF-Houston

I was contacted by Maddie a 2018 Texas A&M graduate, who was looking for someone to help her find her lost  2018 Texas A&M Class ring.

Maddie reported she was at mom’s house in Katy, Texas when she lost her ring while playing catch in the front yard. Maddie said the ring flew off her finger during one of her throws and felt very confident it was somewhere in the front yard.

Maddie said she and her friend spent several hours searching for her ring in the front yard with no success. It was at that point Maddie’s mother did an internet search and found The Ring Finders Metal Detecting Services and placed the call.

I met with Maddie at her mom’s residence in Katy where we walked through the events leading up to her losing her ring. After a short grid search of the front yard, Maddie was re-united with her class ring.

Always fun finding these Texas A&M Class Rings!

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in a Cypress, Texas back yard while playing toss with the dog, recovered by John Volek-TRF Houston

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in a Cypress, Texas back yard while playing toss with the dog, recovered by John Volek-TRF Houston

I was contacted by Nikos a resident of Cypress, Texas who was looking for help in finding his lost Gold wedding band in the backyard of his residence. Nikos reported he had been throwing his dog’s fetch toy in the backyard of his residence when the ring was lost. He stated during one of the throws his custom-made gold wedding ring flew off his finger and landed somewhere in his backyard.

Nikos said he spent several hours searching for his ring, and eventually procured a metal detector to aid him in his searching efforts.  After several attempts with the metal detector and many hours in the Texas heat, Nikos realized he needed some help and conducted a little internet research and came across The Ring Finders Metal Detecting Service. Nikos said, he placed the call without hesitation and asked how successful I felt about finding his lost wedding ring.

After setting up a time with Nikos, I arrived the following day and conducted the search for his lost ring.  Nikos walked me through his steps and re-enacted the throwing of the dog toy to demonstrate the pathway the ring may have taken.

The photographs show the outcome of this search and help to illustrate that just renting or borrowing a metal detector may not always be the solution.

Great day in Texas!

Lost Tungsten Ring w/ Wood Inlay Found In Royal Oak Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Are Woodies Making A Comeback?

Paul and his family were in town and decided to stop at a park to toss a football around. Around dusk they all piled back into the car and headed to the relatives place. Upon arriving Paul noticed his ring missing. Checking the area the following morning revealed nothing. 2 days had passed and today on site I noticed that the park grounds maintenance had cut the grass and used a blower in the area where Paul thought it came off. Turning on my MXT metal detector I started to grid search the area which was hardened mud and crispy russet colored leaves. As my feet crunched the leaves I got no metal signal in the area of interest. Deciding to fan out a bit was a better decision. Just 3 feet from the back of the parking bumper in the grass revealed this quite stunning tungsten ring inlayed with oak wood from a whisky barrel! As Paul and the family were busy on their phones he looked over and I waived for him to come take a look. He reached down, held it in the air and yelled to the family to come see. They all came running over and were elated but mystified how the ring ended up there. Watching them drive off to further explore the Detroit area with smiles was a great feeling. So whether or not the woodie automobile makes a comeback, the wood inlayed rings are becoming quite popular.

A Tale of Lost Love Rediscovered: The Recovery of Cielo’s Engagement Ring at East Beach Santa Barbara

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
Dave MacDonald: Lost Ring Recovery at East Beach, Santa Barbara
A distress call from Ian broke the calm of Sunday evening: his fiancée, Cielo, lost her engagement ring to the ocean tide at East Beach in Santa Barbara. Entrusted to Ian while she swam, the ring slipped away, swallowed by waves and sand. Ian turned to Dave MacDonald Ringfinder at davetheringfinder.com, the expert for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara, from East Beach to Hammonds Beach, to save the day.
Tuesday dawned with hope. I met Ian and Cielo at Hendry’s Beach, my metal detector ready to tackle Bates Beach-like tides and Loon Point Beach-style sands. Gridding the shoreline—a method I’ve perfected at Leadbetter Beach and Butterfly Beach—I hit a faint signal after initial misses. Digging into the damp sand near Summerland Beach’s edge, I found it: Cielo’s ring, shining in the sun. Their joy echoed from Miramar Beach to Thousand Steps Beach.

Lost White Gold w/Diamonds Engagement Ring Found In Royal Oak Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Fetch!

Is what Hailey yelled as she threw the ball for her dogs to chase late Saturday evening. Back in the house she discovered her engagement ring missing. Her and fiancee walked the property this morning thinking it was impaw-ssible to find, barking up the wrong tree. On the phone I said don’t terrier-self up over it, my metal sniffing detector will retrieve it. Early this evening I used one of the turn on and go modes on my MXT metal detector as darkness was upon us. I Mutt-iculously grid searched in the direction of the throws. After a few minutes I got a bark thru the headphones and a meter reading of paw-ssibly where white gold would be. Probing the grass with my pin pointer revealed her beautiful white gold ring with diamonds! I waived for her to come over and pointed to the ground, and she was full of excitement as she lifted it from the grass and said P’awww you found it! You’re pawsome! Amazed and thrilled it was found she isn’t considering an automatic dog ball launcher but rather will continue to form a strong bond with her dogs playing fetch in PAW-idise!

Sentimental Pocket Knife Found, Falmouth, Massachusetts

  • from Falmouth (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

You probably have a story of your own about how a relative gave you something special when you were a kid or a young man, something you’ve treasured over many decades.  Such was the case with Billy.  His father presented him with his Barlow pocket knife when Billy was 20 years old and Billy carried it for 60-some years.  It was an everyday tool, often used, and it always brought warm memories of his father.

Unfortunately, one of those everyday uses ended in the loss of the knife.  Billy remembered using it to cut open sacks of compost and potting soil when he was planting butterfly bushes, and he only later realized that the knife had disappeared.

My interest in metal detecting and finding lost objects for folks came up in a conversation we had many months later, and when Billy told me his story I said that I’d be very happy to look for the knife.  When I arrived with my detector, he pointed out that it likely was near the last bush he’d planted, and it turned out that he was spot on.  It took only a few minutes to find and recover the knife from beneath 6 or 7 inches of soil that had been used to fill the planting hole.

Unfortunately, nature had taken its toll on the knife.  Nonetheless, Billy was delighted to have this very sentimental item back in his hands.  I told him how to use electrolysis to remove the rust, and hopefully it will clean up reasonably well.  Although we are ‘ring finders’, it’s not always about rings…..

Lost and found gold diamond ring Buckhorn Lake.

Received a text from Dave and Lori yesterday evening from Buckhorn Lake, North of Peterborough. Dave was at the dock with his brother in law Marco, when he was wiping his hands and his diamond wedding ring fell off his finger, bounced once on the deck and then between two deck boards and into the water. The good part is that they both saw the ring fly off and go in between the boards into the water (under the deck). The bad part was that there was almost two feet of silt, branches and dead wood under the deck. Silt and weeds are the worst conditions to find any jewelry under water.

I met with them mid afternoon today and after getting all the facts, got into the water and dove under the deck. The worst part about silt bottoms is that as soon as you disturb any of it, visibility goes to 0%. From there, it’s all about your metal detector, pin pointer and feeling with your bare hands while laying on the bottom. First target up, an old pair of vise grips. Second target, an old pop can.  Then, I removed as much dead wood and debris as possible to hopefully hear the right target. After an hour or so, had to come out of the water to warm up and regroup. Lori fed me a nice hot cup of coffee and some Italian pastry and back in the water I went. This time I heard a very faint signal and again, with zero visibility, started digging into the silt with my fingers and pin pointer. About forty minutes later, I finally felt Dave’s ring, moved away from the deck until I had enough visibility to look and confirm that it was indeed his lost wedding ring. As I surfaced, I got Marco’s attention and signalled to him that I had found the ring and gestured for him to grab my IPhone and start recording as I wanted to get Dave’s reaction as I reunited him with his ring. Dave and Lori were ecstatic and it was great to witness the joy and happiness they felt as he slipped his ring back onto his finger. Another story that ends well. I even got treated to a glass of champagne, cold meat and cheese before heading back home. I love what I do.

Lost Gold Wedding Ring – Found! Baden, PA (Pittsburgh Area)

  • from Indiana (Pennsylvania, United States)

Brian Carpenter – Ring Recovery Specialist, Pittsburgh, PA and Indiana, PA. Lost your ring or other valuable jewelry? Metal Detecting Service. Call/Text 814-244-2300 as soon as possible for assistance.

I received a text from Mr. Lopez who stated that he had lost his ring while gardening at his residence and would like my assistance. Upon my arrival Mr. Lopez stated that he had been working in his garden in the front yard and had spent some time in the back yard as well. Mr. Lopez had a front yard that is one big impressive garden with several different species of flowers and plants. The challenge here would be to make it around all of the plants and flowers without disturbing all of his hard work and not missing any of the terrain where the ring could be hiding at the same time. I began my search and BAM! within the first few minutes (a personal best!) I found the ring hiding in a tuft of grass. When I knocked on the door Mr. Lopez was concerned that I was knocking so quickly after getting started that maybe his cat had escaped from the house, however much to his surprise it was because I had found his ring. I was relieved to have found Mr. Lopez’s ring and return it to him as he had mentioned about having to replace it and I believe that some things can just not truly be replaced.

Lost a ring?

Don’t wait to call!

I received a call from Brandon who lost his gold wedding band in a Philadelphia park while he and his friends were playing kickball.  He caught the ball and threw it, sending his ring flying. After he and his friends searched for around 2 hours with no luck, they reached out to fellow Ringfinder Rich Hageney who referred Brandon to me.

After getting the general location of where it flew off his finger and a thorough grid search, the ring was found!
