After Frank had bought a metal detector and had exhausted all his efforts trying to find his wedding ring that he lost while playing with the dogs, he turned to the internet and we met. We talked about what happened. I started the search. You know, simple grid of the area where he threw the ball and felt his ring come off. Well no ring target for 60’out. Wow…..So he got on his camera and we pulled up him playing with his dogs. Found the part where he felt the ring come off. Then searched again. We then doubted if that is when he actually lost it. We searched the trash and other things he did right before playing with the dogs. All negative. Well my rule of expanding the area was going to have to be enforced. Boom in the other direction, on the other side of the fence I got the signal. I then let Frank use his new metal detector to find the signal and recover his wedding ring of 5 years. He was very thrilled and we were both astonished at where it was finally located. I believe a new treasure hunter was born that day. It was my honor to help Frank. Every search and recovery is a learning experience. Video shows the story.

 

 

Lost Yellow Gold Wedding Band at Four Seasons Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began when I got a call from Aloha Security for a guest named Alex at the Four Seasons Hotel.  Alex was on vacation with his family and not wanting to lose his Yellow Gold Wedding Ring had his daughter hold it while he swam in the lagoon.  When he came back his daughter in the next lounge chair over gently tossed his ring back to her father but it dropped into the soft dry sand and disappeared.  No matter how hard they tried sifting the sand the ring could not be found.  I told Alex I had to finish up a chore then would head out to the resort.  When I arrived Alex met me on the walkway to Four Seasons and took me to the area in the chairs the ring was lost.  We moved some metal chairs and tables out of the way and I started the hunt with the Excalibur 2.  This area of the resort has tremendous EMI and the Excal works really well in that environment.  There was an umbrella pole going into the ground and I was getting a loud low tone very close to it.  I took one scoop and the tone was still there.  Second scoop, “BINGO”  Yellow Gold Wedding Ring in the scoop.  Alex was obviously relieved and very thankful.  He even invited me to the outdoor bar for a cold beer which I thoroughly enjoyed along with his conversation and hospitality.  Aloha to Alex!

Eileen called me and asked if I could help her find a lost Mercedes Benz vehicle fob/key and she was quite sure it was somewhere in one of two cars. Apparently she had unloaded some things from one car to another and in the process she misplaced the only fob/key that she had for her older Mercedes. She looked numerous times through the car, her purse, the trunk, under the seats and everywhere she could possibly imagine…but she could not find her lost key. When she called me I could hear the stress and discouragement in her voice and I assured her I would come out and conduct a thorough search of both vehicles. I arrived Saturday morning and got right to work going through both cars with a fine tooth comb and my extra strong flashlight. After 40 minutes…NOTHING! Eileen thought that maybe someone walked by while she was moving things back and forth and possibly picked her key up off of the ground. Or maybe a crow picked it up and flew off with it! As a final effort was made to locate her lost key I sat in her older vehicles driver seat and reached up and moved the double sun visors that covered the front window and I noticed something moved…right where the two visors overlap…and sure enough there was her fob…nestled down between the two visors. The fob/key was hidden in the perfect hiding place…not visible from either side! Eileen was over joyed and how I thank God for helping me to be able to find her lost key!

Found Heirloom Gold Ring on Carport Roof

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

I had a text message when I woke up today that came through at 2am. Ananya asked me to help look for her ring by the carport at her apartment complex. She flung her arm up in the air and her ring went flying and was nowhere to be found. I searched the area but couldn’t find it and that’s when she mentioned it could be on the carport roof. The landlord had a ladder I used to access the roof and sure enough I spotted Ananya’s gold ring which was passed down from her grandmother.

Lost Tantalum Wedding Ring Found in Metairie, Louisiana

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)

I received a text message from a man in Metairie, Louisiana who had lost his tantalum wedding band while playing fetch with his dog in the backyard. He’d searched everywhere in the vicinity and even tried using a cheap metal detector he had at home, but with no luck. I headed over after work, took a quick look at the yard, and within about five minutes my Nokta Makro Simplex Ultra locked onto a clean target. The ring was hiding just under the grass about 20 feet in front of the spot he thought it had fallen off. Another successful recovery and a very relieved owner! Always glad to bring these sentimental items back to the owner.

Found Ring of Iron? Not all Gold is jewelry!

  • from Orange (California, United States)

I received a call from Richard today at lunchtime, while I was at work. He needed my help finding a …..Pipe!  Hmmm I thought, okay, I can do that!
He had purchased an old house with a Guest house in the back, as well, and he and his wife are restoring it. This past week we had three days of heavy rain here in California, and he noticed water in his back house basement coming from an electrical box!  Upon investigation he found that there was a pipe leading from the main house, to the back house under the concrete patio, across the lawn and under a concrete walkway into the corner of the basement!

Over 3 days, he captured 10 Gallons of water into buckets, and needed to find where this pipe was so he could repair it.
His contractor told him it would be about $3,000 to break up the concrete to find it and remove/replace it as it was likely metal pipe being such an old home.
Richard had a pretty good idea where he thought it came under the patio, but after probing down several inches witout finding it, he had a friend tell him about TheRingFinders.com so he called me.

I told him I could come out after work, and he was delighted. Grabbing my warm clothes, headlamp (because it is dark out now at 6:30PM), my Equinox 800 with large coil, and a handfull of White Golf Tee’s, I headed out to Whittier, about a 45 minute drive.
I started searching and listening for the Iron Grunt low sounds, I found a good repeatable spot and placed a Golf Tee in the grass. I continued across the yard, and kept placing Golf Tee’s and as you can guess, a straight line emerged pretty fast. All the way to the Concrete walkway just about where he expected it!
He grabbed a small shovel and began to dig, but could not get deep enough. I used my pinpointer, and there was tone for sure. I dug around deeper and soon hit rusty dirt, then paydirt! There was the pipe, and old 1″ Iron pipe, but we also uncovered a PVC Sprinkler pipe shallower so it was good to not have hit that!

The pipe was about a foot deep, not several inches like he had expected.
He was so happy, and while not a Book of Smiles Ring, a big smile for a ring of Iron pipe and thousands saved!
Thanks Richard for using TheRingFinders.com

Lost Wedding Band Recovered in New Orleans Backyard

  • from New Orleans (Louisiana, United States)

I was contacted by a man named James in New Orleans who lost his wedding band while pulling weeds in his backyard and had no idea where it could be, since he’d been all over the yard working in different garden beds. I started the search using my Garrett AT Pro-Pointer inside all of the garden beds but had no luck, so as daylight began to fade I switched to my Nokta Makro Simplex Ultra and began systematically searching the yard. After about 45 minutes of searching total and just before it got dark, I got a clean signal and found his ring laying just outside one of the garden beds. He was incredibly relieved, and it was another great reminder of how rewarding it is to help someone recover something so meaningful.

 

Car Keys Found In Snow Bank

Lost — 14 kt gold engagement ring with diamond – Samsula, Fl, — FOUND!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)

Just as my wife and I pulled into our favorite taco place on Friday, my phone buzzed. It was Diago. His voice was somewhat desperate—he’d lost his girlfriend’s engagement ring, and he needed help.  He and some friends tried to locate it but it was hopeless.

We’d barely parked, the restaurant still minutes from reopening at 5, but I knew the sun was slipping fast thanks to the time change.  So, we left.  As we did, I prayed for God’s favor.

I met Diago at a roadside bar & grille. He pointed out exact the spot where the ring had flown from his hand. It vanished into a patch of tangled grass—short blades, long tufts, and a gloomy drainage ditch. His fiancée, he said, had been in tears.

I fired up my Minelab Manticore, and instantly the machine chattered incessantly – bottle caps, pull tabs, scraps of who-knows-what.  I adjusted my settings, grabbed my pinpointer, and pushed into the grass as daylight drained away.

As darkness enveloped us, I swept every inch of the suspected area, the detector humming, my hopes slipping with the sun. Eventually, I had to turn to Diago and tell him the last thing he wanted to hear: I’d be back at sunrise.

Praying again, I arrived before dawn the next morning. The grass heavy with dew. I started scanning in a slow grid, determined not to miss a thing.  Then—a clean, bright tone!

I dropped to my knees, brushed aside a patch of grass, and there it was: a beautiful gold ring nestled so perfectly in the blades that anyone without a detector would’ve walked past it a hundred times.  God is good!

Later that day I placed the ring back into the hands of an overjoyed couple.
