Lost Platinum Wedding Band at Queen’s Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:


This ring find began yesterday when I got the following message on Metal Detecting Oahu face book page. “Hello,
I’m here on my honeymoon and lost my wedding ring on my one week anniversary (yes I’m they guy… very upset about it). it’s a 7mm platinum ring with a brushed middle portion and shiny edges on a step-down. it was lost about 100 yards to the east of the pier at the end of Kapahulu Ave.” I immediately called Anders whose from Washington DC and we decided to hunt right away because it was a low tide and I feared the Night Detectorist’s would find this Treasure. We met on the beach 20 minutes later and Anders placed me in the area he thought the ring fell off which was straight down from the volleyball nets. After a thorough search with no find, Anders started questioning his location and thought we should look more towards the pier. Funny how we can lose our perspective when the sun goes down. It was dark and I was hunting with my head mounted spot light. Anders also thought the ring would be close to shore near the low tide mark. Still no ring found. I told Anders since the tide was coming up and it was getting pretty rough no one would want to detect there over night. I told him I’d return at the early morning low tide and try again. As I was leaving I ran into another detectorist who was working his way towards the area and he said he was only doing dry & wet sand that night. I told him if he found a Platinum Ring to give me a call. I arrived at the crack of dawn and the tide was down and surf minimal from the night before. I decided to start close to the pier and work East. Since there were two rows of volleyball nets I decided to cover them both and beyond. I also decided to go out to the reef’s edge just in case. First target was a Men’s Tungsten Ring which had been in the water a long time. Then a few coins. After about 45 minutes I was on what I figured would be the last leg and well out of the zone Ander’s had provided the night before when the Nox screamed on a “17” tone near the reef and after one scoop to my surprise there was Ander’s shiny platinum ring in the scoop. I looked skyward and said, “Thank you Jesus”. I cleaned up my gear and when I was able to take a pic I texted it to Anders. I tried calling but his phone went to voicemail. Then I saw an OMG on my phone and Anders called. Him and his lovely wife Rebecca were on scooters and would be there in a few minutes. Smiles all around and Honeymoon saved. Aloha to Rebecca & Anders!

Ernie sent me an email requesting my services. Sometime this morning while doing yard work he lost his tungsten wedding ring. I had some time this evening to search.

I met Ernie at his house and he showed me what he was doing earlier. He spread a lot of mulch and rinsed his hands a few times with a hose. The yard has a lot of thick zoysia grass. 

I started my search and found a few small pieces of aluminum siding. After about 10 minutes Erie went into the house. 5 minutes later his wife pulled up as I was getting a signal. It was Ernie’s ring. I put my finger over my mouth to give the signal to be quiet. I went over to the front door and asked Ernie to come out because I had some more questions. 

I pointed to behind some bushes asking if he was back there, his ring was on my finger. It took a while for him to realize that it was there. Another awesome look on his face. We took a few pictures and he said he would chat up my services on social media. 

2nd successful recovery of the day!

I was sound asleep when my phone began to ring early in the morning. When I answered, it was Kyle on the other end asking if I could help him find his IPhone he had lost at the beach the night before. Well knowing that this beach is cleaned daily by the City, I asked Kyle if he would be able to meet me there as soon as possible to show me where the loss occurred which he agreed to. So I got dressed, got in my truck, and was on my way.

When I got to the beach, Kyle and I found each other. He then went on to explain that he was with friends jumping to the music that they were playing, when everything came out of his pockets including his phone. The jumping by everyone caused his phone to disappear under the sand, and made it impossible to locate. He showed me the area he believed the loss occurred and I began my search. The sand was infested with multiple types of trash metal which slowed down my search considerably, but I kept my grid tight, and made sure to dig every good signal. I searched all of the area he showed me, but with no phone, but remembered him saying he had been standing in another area also, so I began a search over in the new search zone, and after about 4 passes got an overpowering signal in the headphones, dug, and had Kyle’s phone. He was certainly excited to have it back and I was happy to have been able to help.

Lost Rings In Deptford NJ, Found By Dave Milsted

Miranda was referred to me after posting on Facebook that she lost her rings. She contacted me 2 days ago and our calendars synced up for an early Saturday morning search. Miranda explained that she had placed her engagement ring & wedding band in her back pocket. She forgot that they were there, and started playing with her 3-year-old son in the backyard. 

The yard is a good size. She was in many spots, around the shed, sitting on the deck, and around the fort. The fort was the last stop on our tour, so that is where I began my search. 

Miranda went to move her car as I got started because she was also around her SUV in the driveway. I started to search and 3 swings in, I found both rings. They were buried deep in the grass. Less than 1 minute of searching. They couldn’t be seen without separating the blades of grass. I really thought this was going to be a very long search. I took a few pictures before she returned. 

When she came back like 3 minutes later I asked a few more questions. She was looking around the yard, as I was holding up her rings. It took a minute for her to notice them. The look on her face was priceless! She went from being depressed to being ecstatic. She couldn’t believe I had found them so fast!

I love my hobby!

Ring lost, found and returned in Newton, MA

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)
Contact:

My wife and I were just home from a mini getaway. When I received a call from Leighton, another Ring Finder asking me if I could help in a ring search as he was unable to do a search the next day. Definitely I can. Besides, it would be another day away from home with my wife, going places we had never been before.

I called Neil and was told the specifics and that he had also contacted Kent, another Ring Finder and friend of mine. A time for the search was set for the next morning. As a courtesy I called Kent, who also had work commitments on Saturday and would not be able to meet up for the morning search. It was on me with moral support from my wife on this search.

After a walk over the area and explanation that Neil also did some lake weed cutting to clear a launch area for his kayaks. By this time my wife had made friends with Ruby, Neil’s race track rescue Dalmatian. I put on my water gear, did a quick scan over the track between the house and dock area, Nothing, it was then into the water and just a few minutes later I heard a perfect signal, took a shallow scoop and there it was. Neil’s ring was in my scoop. I walked a few steps back to Neil so he could remove the ring from the scoop and put it back on his finger while repeatedly expressing his gratitude. Picture time followed.

I always try to put interest into the “ring shot” and this time was no different. Ruby showed interest in my gear and held still while posing with the ring on her forehead for a perfect photo.

Neil insisted in buying breakfast for my wife and me. We had watched the Phantom Gourmet the day before and had planned to stop at the pick of the show, which was Ronnie Waffles, on our way home. That was a sweet, happy ending to an anguishing day Neil had experienced. A perfect ending to an outstanding week.

Lost Gold & Diamonds Sentimental Earring at Ulua Lagoon…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:


This Earring hunt began yesterday when I was rinsing off from a ring hunt in Ulua Lagoon. A young lady named Rosie from Mililani approached me and said a lady told her I was the resort detectorist and would help her find her lost Gold & Diamonds Earring her father had given to her. She explained the day before while swimming and playing along the shoreline with her children at some point her earring went missing. She had swum out to the buoy line in deep water but figured the earring probably came off while playing along the shore. Rosie helped me draw a grid line in the sand and I went hunting. After clearing that grid without finding the earring Rosie thought maybe a bit more to the North might give us some luck. Low and behold on the third pass I got a screaming “8” target on the Nox and in one scoop there was the beautiful sentimental earring in my scoop. Right on the shoreline where Rosie imagined. Needless to say Rosie was very relieved and extremely thankful I was able to find it. Earrings can be tough sometimes but the Nox is excellent in the water! Aloha to Rosie!

Received a call from Christy explaining that both of her rings flew off her fingers while she was brushing sand from her children’s face and disappeared into the sand. Christy and her family had just arrived in town for vacation and proceeded right to the beach once they arrived. Took the short ride over and met up with Christy and her husband. After gathering some details, I had both rings in the scoop in a matter of about 10 minutes. Relieved, Christy and her family can now enjoy the rest of their vacation!!

Beach Sand Almost Claims Another Ring in Seaside Park NJ, Found by Dave Milsted the Metal Detecting Man

Charlotte called me yesterday asking if I could find her ring. She was on the beach playing a tossing game. When she tossed she lost her ring. I had plans today but told her I could be there this morning, bright & early. She agreed.

I got to the beach at 7:30 am. It was empty & I got an excellent free parking spot! She told me she was to the right of the trash cans, so I texted her saying I was there and started to search before she got there. Within 5 minutes I had an awesome shallow tone on the detector. I scooped up the sand and had a big silver ring in my hands. 

I was very surprised that I found it before she arrived. As I was taking pictures of the ring, Charlotte arrived. I asked her what her ring looked like, as I was going to surprise her when she described it to me. She said it was a yellow gold ring with a pearl in the center. Oh, that is not the ring I found, bonus!

She showed me the area she was in when she lost her ring. The ring was her grandmother’s ring, which has a lot of sentimental value attached to it. She said she spent several hours sifting through the sand with family looking for it. She is in the area for a family reunion. She explained to me that just last week she lost another ring on a beach in Virginia, that a family friend found with a metal detector. She didn’t learn a lesson with that loss. 

I started to grid the area she sent me to. Within 5 minutes I had that special gold tone on my detector, scooped and there was her ring. She was so happy & relieved. I asked her if she learned any lessons. She said YES, I’m never wearing rings to the beach again. She had to go back & pack as they are returning home today, to Virginia. 

I stuck around to search a little more and found another silver ring. Not bad, it was a beautiful morning on the beach!!

*** Jeremy called me asking for help to find his wedding ring. He reminded me that I had helped him find this same ring a couple years ago. 

This time he had been at Churches Surfing Beach near San Onofre State Beach. These beaches are located in San Clemente, CA. which is about a half hour drive for me. 

He was sure that he had put the ring in the pocket of his shorts before going out to surf. He believe that the ring may have fallen out of the pocket into the sand, even though he didn’t discover it missing till he returned home. I asked Jeremy if he couple meet me at the location.

It took about an hour to get into San Onofre State Beach parking then walk maybe a third of a mile to the isolated surfing beach. Jeremy had riden his electric bike to meet me. Many times people can meet me but it does help for a successful recovery.

I began a grid search about 10’ outside the 30’x 30’ Jeremy laid out for me. Half way through the second grid line my detector gave me a solid signal which turned out to be his tungsten wedding ring. He was over joyed. I could tell that this ring meant a lot to him. 

This search was fun for me because it started with a simple phone call, it was over 20 miles away, we met on a remote part of the beach and Jeremy had his ring back where it belongs, we both went on to enjoy the ready of our day..

High School Class Ring Lost in Chattanooga TN for 16 Years…Found

High School Ring Lost for 16 Years, Found!

I had a guy to contact me several months ago about a high school class ring he had lost in 2005.  He had since moved out of state up to Pennsylvania.  This weekend being Mother’s day he was in town visiting family and had obtained permission from the current homeowners to do a search in the yard.  So this has been several months in the making.  He thought it was white gold, but wasn’t certain.  I wasn’t sure what kind of signal I would get on my CTX, and I knew it would be several inches deep, so I was doomed to dig just about everything.  I started up towards the house and worked my way down to the street, drawing my grid lines.  I had been there about three hours and had dug a bag full of trash and modern coins.  It’s slow going when you have to dig nearly everything.  We had only about five feet of yard left before we got to the street when I got a signal that at first looked like trash.  The CTX didn’t give me a VDI number, (I think there was trash very nearby), but I did have a consistent tone and a small tight target identification picture on the screen.  Since it was consistent I dug it and out popped a ring that had been in the ground for 16 years.  It was 3-4 inches deep, a little deeper than I thought it might be.  Another happy ring owner!
