Logan and his father were adding gravel to his rear driveway and spreading it with a front end loader and shovel during the work, Logan noticed that his wedding band was missing. Logan also mentioned that he recently lost some weight, and the ring was fitting very loose. So perfect scenario for a ring to slid off.
I started searching where Logan was laying the gravel in his driveway. I had a lot of junk signals. There were a couple of iffy signals in about 5 to 6 inches deep. I moved to the next location where Logan was reworking the right side of the driveway. On my fist pass here I got a solid signal 2 inches down using my pin pointer to find the target I brushed the gravel away and the silver ring appeared. He was so happy that it was found to say the least, I love mt hobby.
Thank you, Logan, on the opportunity to find your gold wedding ring.

I had just gotten home from a day hanging with family when I received a call from a worried gentleman attending University of Nevada Reno. He lost his wedding ring in tall grass while playing at a nearby park and they tried for over an hour looking for the ring but with no luck before finding me on TheRingFinders.Com site. I was able to drive to them within a short time and upon arrival I noticed they had marked out the boundaries for the search area with sandals and other items which helped a lo t. Within 10 minutes of detecting we found the ring and big smiles by All!
What a reward seeing the happiness and relief from the couple knowing their worries are over.

Today’s excursion took me to beautiful Madawaska area. Received a text from Emily yesterday afternoon about her loosing her custom made engagement ring, while vacationing with her whole family at a cottage near Madawaska. She was swimming in about 10’ of water when disaster struck. Her beautiful emerald/diamond platinum ring slipped right off her finger. Quick thinking, a couple of guys grabbed a buoy, a rope and a rock and marked the approximate location where she was when the ring fell off. After multiple attempts at snorkeling/diving, they could not locate ring. After arriving and getting situated, got suited up on my Scuba gear and with he help of my underwater metal detector, I started searching for her ring. Unfortunately, what was supposed to be a sandy bottom, turned out to be your typical Ontario lake condition with silt. Once the silt at the bottom gets stirred up, visibility went to zero. But, with patience and proper gridding, thirty minutes later, I was able to find her ring for her. Emily’s reaction was priceless. Another happy ending. Life is good!

Today’s travel took me to Lake Scugog. Received a text from Doug this morning about his son having lost his gold wedding band while vacationing at a cottage on Scugog lake. Carson was swimming with his dog and while trying to pick him up, he felt his ring slip off his finger in about 5’ of water. His ring was custom made, with gold from his grand father’s ring. The good news is that he had a good idea where the ring slipped off and the bottom had barely any weeds and not too much silt to contend with. Was a quick recovery, perhaps fifteen minutes, and Carson was extremely happy to get his ring back on his finger. Another happy ending. Life is good!

Bob’s Got His Smile Back……
While out doing yard chores Bob went into an allergic sneezing frenzy. Falling to the ground he eventually was able to stand up and went into the house to get a cool drink. While enjoying cooling down he noticed his dental post missing. He ran back out and looked around but couldn’t see it and wondered where it went. While on the phone I said it was me Vs. the tooth fairy. While laughing he said he’d rather have his dental post back instead of money under his pillow. On site I started a grid search in the area where he remembers falling down. The ground was very clean with no junk signals. About 10 minutes into the search, I got a good signal and detector meter read of a very small, shallow item. Moving the grass around revealed Bob’s dental post compressed into the ground, probably from him walking or falling onto it he said. Happy he was to get his smile back and happy that the tooth fairy won’t be visiting tonight!

Claire and her friend were enjoying a fourth of July party in a friends back yard. During a relay race Claire felt the ring slip from her fingers and fly somewhere into the grassy area. She and her friends searched the area on their hands and knees for hours and could not find the ring. Claire by chance saw the news broadcast about my helping people recover lost jewelry in Fairfield and asked if I could take a look. I arrived and found out there was one potentially major problem. The yard had an electric fence and the interference it caused made me reduce my sensitivity significantly. I asked Claire to reenact the event as best as she could remember to put me close tot he area. After balancing the frequency in my detector I got my first gold tone signal. Putting the pin pointer to the ground clearly told me we had a good target just below the surface. Putting my fingers into the soil under the grass a gold ring popped out of the grass and into my hand. I showed her what I had just found and she stared in disbelief that I was able to get it, especially after they had spent hours searching for it. we did a reenactment on video for her friends and family to see the moment she was surprised , that video was fun to make and capture the essence of what it feels like to return a sentimental item
I also learned better how to deal with the electric fences so if this happens again I would be ready. I did not see the two dogs until after the hunt was over but I’m glad I had returned to the car when they came out to protect their property.
