Lost silver bracelet in sand, Sanford, Fl….Found with metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:


Dev was enjoying a relaxing morning playing volleyball with his family and friends and when the time came to pack it up and head home he noticed that his large silver bracelet was not on his wrist. This bracelet was a special gift from his friends as a present for his birthday a couple of years ago. And he wears it all the time and could not believe that somehow it had come off. He and his family searched diligently through the sand hoping to find it and after a while they realized it had just disappeared. But Dev refused to give up and finally looked on line and entered “Bracelet Finder using a Metal Detector” and up came theringfinders.com. A quick search in the “Directory” showed I was located right here in Sanford, Fl. and he gave me a call.

I was just sitting down to lunch with my family so I assured Dev I could come out after we finished eating and if his lost silver bracelet was there in the sand I could find it for him and not to worry. Two hours later I met Dev and he showed me the sand volleyball court where they had spent the morning playing. He explained that they had switched sides after each game so the odds were even that it could be on either half. It took me about 10 minutes to cover the whole court and then I began searching around the outside along the out-of-bounds line. I found a few pieces of foil here and there and then the first strong promising signal turned out to be an old matchbox car and then not five feet away another strong signal. Slowly I brushed the sand away hoping to reveal what sounded like a large silver item and sure enough…there was Dev’s lost silver bracelet! Dev was so glad to have his special gift back in his possession. (The clasp had worked its way open and it was obvious what had caused it to fall off and into the sand!).

Lost something recently…or even years ago and need some help?

Give me a call, text or send me an email….ASAP!

Runaway Men’s wedding ring found-Lodi, New Jersey

  • from Mahwah (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

 

 

 

 

 

 

      

Anthony was sitting on the steps of his front porch when he heard the sound of his wedding ring falling off of his finger and hitting the step. He knew exactly where he was when the ring fell off. After numerous fruitless searches of the area he located me on the Ringfinder site. I arrived to see the search area was fairly small and began to scan the lawn on the side he was sitting. I moved to the other side of the sidewalk and located the ring about 15 feet away from where he dropped it. We were both suprised  how far it had traveled after just dropping off.

It was important we found the ring as the next day the landscapers were scheduled to mow the lawn and there was the chance it would be hit with the lawn mower. Another disaster averted!

LOST RING HONEYMOON ISLAND, DUNEDIN, FL….FOUND!!!

  • from Dunedin (Florida, United States)
Contact:

STEVE THOMAS  DUNEDIN RING FINDER

LOST A RING OR OTHER METAL VALUABLE IN A GRASSY OR SANDY AREA? JEWELRY SLIP OFF OF YOU WHILE SWIMMING? PLEASE CALL ME ASAP (843) 995-4719. I OFFER A FREE METAL DETECTING SERVICE, REWARD OPTIONAL BUT APPRECIATED.

I was scheduled to conduct a search for a lost wedding band on Honeymoon Island last Monday afternoon when I received a call from Derek and Rhiannon Sunday evening. Rhiannon’s beautiful wedding ring had slipped off her finger while the family was enjoying some beach time earlier in the day. Even though Rhiannon realized the loss almost immediately, the family was unable to locate the ring in the sand. As the family was leaving Honeymoon Island, they reported the lost ring to a park ranger and the ranger passed along my contact information.

Because Sunday was the end of a busy Easter holiday weekend, we set up a search time for early Monday morning, hopefully before the hobby detectorists began searching the beach. Derek and Rhiannon took me to the location where they were sitting (thankfully they had marked it well and it was beyond the high tide line) and after only about a 3 minute search, I uncovered the ring, pulled it from the sand, held it up to Rhiannon, and the tears of joy began to flow. I know you Ringfinders know this already, but there can not be anything more satisfying than returning a precious item to someone when they thought they might never see it again. I love my job!

Thank you to the rangers at Honeymoon Island for connecting me to Derek and Rhiannon and thanks for the generous reward!

Man’s wedding ring found in woods after being lost during tree work-Washington Township New Jersey

  • from Mahwah (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

         

Jide had been helping a friend cut some trees and dump the branches in a nearby woods. He realized his wedding band had fallen off in the process. they searched the wooded area and could not find the ring. After searching the internet, The Ringfinders site was found and I was contacted.

After arriving at the scene I realized this was not going to be an easy search and recovery. There was a massive tangle of cut tree limbs and branches and very little room to swing my detector. Well, team work paid off!  Jide would go ahead of me and move branches far enough for me to properly search the area. I eventually received a strong signal and glimpsed a bit of gold among the weeds and branches. I recovered the ring and it was smiles all around!

Found large man’s gold wedding ring-Suffern, New York

  • from Mahwah (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

         Karen was walking around her townhouse yard wearing her husband’s large gold wedding band on her thumb. Much to her dismay she realized she had dropped the ring. She was sure she had dropped  it across the street from her house, but after numerous frantic searches, they could not locate the ring.

A neighbor had heard of Ringfinders and soon she called me to locate the ring. Karen gave me an idea of where she thought she had lost the ring. After a search of the area, I found that someone had stepped on the ring and sunk it into the lawn. You could not see the ring, but my detector saw it and soon it was returned to the very happy and grateful owners.

Lost Gold Family Crest Ring at Nai’a Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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


This ring find began Sunday when I got a call at home from Susie who was on vacation with her family from Glendora, California. While preparing to board a flight home from the Honolulu Airport Susie told me her husband Justin had lost his Father’s Gold Family Crest Ring Thursday afternoon at Nai’a Lagoon at the Ko Olina Resort. Justin was playing on the shoreline with his son throwing a ball when the ring came off, fell into the water and disappeared into the sand. He immediately searched but the soft sand swallowed the ring and wasn’t about to reveal it’s whereabouts without some metal detecting assistance. I told Susie since the day was still early I’d head back to Ko Olina and see what I could do. Justin said the location should be ankle deep water in the center one third of the lagoon. The traffic was light and I arrived at Nai’a Lagoon around 3PM. Aloha Security opened the exit gate for me so I could enter the parking area as there was a line of cars waiting to go in. I started my search at the northern side of the center third and searched out to waist deep water and several feet up the shoreline in case Justin’s ring decided to travel. About 15 minutes into the hunt I found a Titanium Wedding Band. Keep going! A moment later I found a Tungsten Wedding Band. More to post on my website in hopes of returning. I found a few coins and then in the exact center of the lagoon in knee deep water I got a screaming 13 on the Nox and in one scoop there was Justin’s ring glistening in my scoop. Wow! That ring is very unique and if I hurry I can get a text off to the family before they land in California. Barely two hours later I got a text from Susie saying, “That is it!! Awesome! It’s my husband’s birthday and that is the best news.” I mailed the ring back Monday morning and Justin had it back on his finger Wednesday afternoon. Justin sent me a personal message about the ring and his Father that put a lump in my throat and justifies the pure enjoyment I get from this hobby. Aloha to Justin and Susie!

I was at work yesterday doing a long day when near the end night I got a text message asking for help, then shortly after a phone call. A young man had lost his white gold wedding band at Third Beach in Vancouver. He told me it was extremely important for me to find it, that is always the case and I totally understand that, so I set up a time to meet him after work.

After a 13 hour day I met the young man at the beach at approximately 10:15 pm, he showed me the area where he believed the ring fell off his finger, it didn’t take long to find his beautiful white gold ring and help continue that story. He and his friends spent 30 minutes in the dark searching for the ring with no success. Sometimes recovery of the ring can be very quick when others times it could take a very long time to find, fortunately he put me in the right area, so tonight it was a quick search and I was home shortly after midnight

Lost Platinum Wedding Band in Vancouver, BC Lost & Found!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Chris Turner- Ring Recovery Specialist…Lost your ring?… Call ASAP  Anytime- 778-838-3463

 

Well it was a Sunday last week and it was a day full of rain, sun & wind, I was enjoying the day working on my directory when I got a call from a young man who was from Vancouver and had lost his wedding ring. I stopped everything grabbed my equipment and headed out to help him.

Before I left I did ask him what I was looking for and it was his platinum wedding band that fell off the ninth floor of his apartment building. I got them to send me some photos and saw that it was pretty soft ground and I knew platinum falling from that high up would embed into the dirt quite easily.

He told me that his wife and two friends were helping him look for it most of the morning but cannot find it, that’s when they found me online and gave me a call. When I was driving to the location the sun was out and it felt like spring, shortly after I got there it started raining.

When I got there I asked my typical questions just to make sure I was in the right location, I looked up 9 floors and I asked him what side of the patio the ring fell from and then began my search.

It didn’t take too long to find his beautiful platinum wedding band, buried 1/2 inch into the ground. I’ve been doing this for so many years and found hundreds of rings for people and I got to tell you, I’m still as excited to see the glimmer of gold or platinum and knowing that  I’m going to surprise these people with a very sentimental item that they cherish and now can reconnect with…Makes me so happy inside! I’ll never get tired doing this!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have the best job in the world and I love doing this more than anything I’ve ever done in my lifetime. I get to make people smile, I get to hear their stories of what their ring means to them and how happy they are when I’m lucky enough to find it for them.

Wedding rings lost at Silver Strand State Beach Found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Yuliia took a walk south from The main Silver Strand State Beach, and with a simple hand movement, her wedding ring (a combination of 3 separate interlocking rings) flew off her finger and into the sand. She found my name on The Ring Finders site and gave me a call a couple of days later. We arranged to meet at the parking lot the following morning. My wife and I arrived at the prescribed time, met Yuliia, and we all took the mile walk south to the search area. Much to Yuliia’s credit, she took GPS coordinates and also remembered a particular log that was near where she lost the ring(s). She found the spot and I started my search. One short pass and a half and my first signal was a nice strong 10-11 on my Equinox. Out came the pin pointer and just and inch or two under the sand was her rings. A pleasure to meet you Yuliia and thank you for the reward.
