Platinum Wedding Band Lost in Sunnyvale, CA…FOUND!!!

  • from Walnut Creek (California, United States)

The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

   

I have been requested for a string of esoteric recoveries involving planning, special equipment, and unusual conditions as of lately.  This was NOT one of them!

The most difficult part of this recovery would be the hour commute to the site.  I was requested to search for a lost platinum men’s wedding band on a sand volleyball court in Sunnyvale, CA.  This recovery was completed before the client could even complete the search contract.  Everyone was extremely surprised and happy to have located the ring so quickly!  The couple had only been married 6 months and it was the second time the ring had been lost.  I jokingly told them to keep my number on speed dial!  We made the recovery!

To the family… Thank you for trusting me with your ring recovery!

18K white gold ring found in Huntington Beach

CALL SURF CITY RING FINDER 714-944-0555

Kyle lost his ring while playing cornhole at the beach yesterday. Monette, a friend of Kyle’s wife posted on a Huntington Beach facebook page about the lost ring. I reached out to her and offered my services. Monette met me at the beach the next morning and gave me great info on where t  hey were sitting and playing cornhole.

I checked the area where the canopy was set up and the ring was not there, so I moved to the area where the cornhole game was and that’s where the ring was found.

Greg, a friend is showing Kyle’s ring and I am wearing the ring after I found it.

Lost White Gold & Diamonds Engagement Ring at 4 Seasons Beach Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call yesterday from Jaymie who lives on Oahu telling me her friend Precious from Nigeria had just lost her White Gold & Diamonds Engagement Ring along the shore of 4 Seasons Beach near the Sailing Catamaran.  Jaymie got my contact info from her Uncle Britton who has been a long time detectorist on Oahu.  I told her I would go first thing in the morning.  As I was checking the surf report and having been there earlier that day my fear was the ring of that size could wash up on shore and someone else find it.  I decided I would just have to go immediately and see what develops.  When I arrived,  it was a very high tide and water was coming up to the beach chairs.  I started at the Catamaran and worked towards Aulani as the location pic Jaymie sent me suggested.  On the fifth leg,  as I was going up onto the wet sand I got a loud #26 on the Manticore and in one scoop there was Precious’ amazing ring in the scoop.  I immediately went to my car to give Jaymie the great news.  Jaymie said she was about ten minutes away and asked if we could meet at the Lagoon 1A parking lot.  Of course we did and I was able to secure the ring to her for Precious.  Later that evening they sent me the heart warming photo of two friends with so much joy on their faces.  Much Aloha to Precious & Jaymie!

West Yarmouth, MA: Lost Pinky Ring Found and Returned

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

July 17, 2024

Zack was on vacation enjoying one of the many small beaches with friends. While frolicking in thigh deep water he felt his pinky ring slip off his finger. Others on the beach offered the information about TheRingFinders and another member’s phone number and called. Unfortunately, Luke was on his way off Cape Cod for the weekend and could not help except to pass my number onto Zack. A call to me and of course I was on my way to what was to be a quick return. Well, that was not to be.

Zack told me that he was very sure of he area he lost the ring at. With the information of the area and depth in the water he was when the ring fell off, I started searching parallel to the shore line with no success. Time to search perpendicular to the shore line, gridding the area. Nothing. Maybe as Zack next suggested he might have been a bit more the the right and so I opened up the search area. Again, nothing. Zack then said “No, I am very sure I was over here…again nothing. The tide was coming in and it was getting late. I called off the search for the evening and would be back the next day.

The morning came and I and detecting partner Leighton were on our way for another search. About forty minutes into the search in the original area, I found the ring. Hey, if you miss the ring by an inch, it might just as well had been a mile. I just did not pass my search coil over the ring the day before.

Zach had gone to another beach and it was not for another couple of hours and a cup of iced tea that we met up with Zack at his vacation rental for the returning of the ring. And as usual pictures, stories and many thanks with smiles all around, Leighton and I left for another beach to do some recreational detecting with no pressure to find a specific target.

 

Lost and found Samsung cell phone at Sandbanks Provincial park

Received a text from Alyssa yesterday about her having lost her new Samsung cell phone while swimming at Sandbanks Provincial park the day before. She had the phone within a protective water proof case and lanyard but it tore off when she got pounded by a big wave. The first issue is that both days have been very windy, with high waves, and sand bars at this location do travel quite quickly, possibly burying her phone deep in the sand. The other issue is that Alyssa could not be there to show me where she had lost it, being in the GTA area, which makes the task more difficult. However, with the magic of GPS and a quick video conference with her while at the beach, we were able to narrow down the search area considerably. Fast forward two hours of searching, I was able to recover her phone. Even better, the phone was still on and in perfect working order. I will be shipping the phone back to her first thing Monday morning. Another successful story. Life is good.

Geneva contacted me regarding a ring that was lost earlier in the day at the beach. It was now night time, and she was not going to be able to meet me at the beach, so I said I could help if I was given specific directions to the area of the loss. She sent a photo of where she had been earlier plus a satellite picture with the spot circled. I let her know that I would leave right away to do the search in order to have the best possibility of a successful recovery.

I got to the beach, and it did not take me long to find the area where she had been searching. I turned on my detector and began to grid. I got to about the middle of her search area when I received a good signal. I dug with my scoop, and had a real nice looking ring. I had to contact her because I noticed it had a crack in the band, and she told me that was the way it was. I wanted to get it to her right away, and she told me she was at a restaurant, so I let her know that I would drive it right over to her. She was very happy to know that what was thought lost for good, was back again.

Lost and found wedding band at Roblin Lake Ontario

While conducting a successful ring recovery at Roblin lake earlier this week, I happened to find a wedding band. I decided the next day to post pictures of it on our local Facebook page just in case it was lost by local folks. Well, within 5 minutes of post being active, I had found the rightful owner of the ring. How did I know? There was a special inscription inside the band and they knew what it was. Met them shortly after and returned the ring. Life is good.

 

Lost Ring Recovered in North Dakota.

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)

On Wednesday, July 17, I received a text wanting to know if I traveled to a very distant location. I told them that I didn’t know for sure, I would have to look on a map. This was a request from a fellow coworker of a family member. So, I told them that I would do it. I took off and made it to the location by 7:00 PM. my concern was to have enough daylight to make things a little easier.

They had told me that the caller’s husband had been concerned about losing his ring, so he took it off and put it in a compartment on his jet ski.  As you know that non-moving jet skis have a little stability issue and was pushing off from a dock and the jet ski rolled over. The compartment that held the ring popped open and the ring fell out. While it was a terrible incident, it was a blessing that it happened in a location that was only in 3 1/2 feet of water.

I went into the water at the location described and as you can imagine a boat launch that has been in operation for many, many years had debris from those years. A bottle cap or pull-tabs here and there, fishing weights, boat trailer parts and the many other items that you would think would be associated with well used boat launch. It was a much more difficult hunt then what I was thinking. The things that were going right were that the location was a small area, and the water was shallow in that location. There was small and medium size cobble or round rocks on the bottom that was making scooping a signal very difficult. What I was thinking was going to be a 30-40 minute turned into a 2-hour recovery.

I had brought 2 detectors with me, a Minelab Equinox 900 with a 10-inch coil, and a Garrett AT Pro with a small D coil. After hunting for an hour and a half, I decided to switch over to the AT Pro to help discriminate the different targets.  This move was my saving grace. It allowed me much more control over the targets and pinpointing those targets was key.   After about another 30 minutes I found the ring. What a beautiful sight it was to see it in my scoop.  A white gold men’s wedding band, just like described.

Another Happy ending.

Turns out – I guess I do go out that far after all, who knew….

Happy reunion

I had to sneak into one photo.

OK it was a 5  1/2 hour drive one way.

I also have a God daughter that lived along the route, and I could make nervous that I was checking on her.

Life is so good.

If you’ve lost your wedding ring or engagement ring or any sentimental item, ”Don’t wait until it’s too late” call ASAP 24/7  Chris- 778-838-3463

I received a text message from young lady who said her mother found me online and asked about my service. I quickly called and talk to the young lady who explained she had lost her engagement ring and wedding band at Centennial Beach for days ago… During the summer it is crucial to act fast due to the amount of people who are metal detecting the beaches these days.

She told me she bought a Metal Detector and her husband searched for four hours with no luck, they found bottle caps and  pull tabs, and that was about it. I told her I had over 50 years of experience metal detecting and explained to her it would be worth me going and checking just to make sure it wasn’t still there and they missed it.

She told me she had very little hope, but said let’s do it, I met the young lady. She showed me the area and within five minutes we had both of her beautiful rings.

Dale recently lost his precious wedding band when it fell into the sand as him & his wife were trying to enjoy the day at Del Mar Beach.  They were smart & stayed put until finding my contact info online. I didn’t waist anytime knowing this popular Ca beach is cleaned daily by droves of newbie metal detector enthusiasts. Being a local in North County San Diego I was able to get there promptly. It was a small search area & I recovered Dales ring quickly. He was relieved as you can see in the photo I saved the day!
