Lost engagement ring found with metal detector

  • from Marietta (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from a good friend in Georgia back in March. He tells me about his wife losing her engagement and wedding ring along a highway. He had a rented metal detector and he said it was going crazy with all the trash along the road. I was able to hear thru the phone what the detector was doing so I was able to help him with his settings to aide in his search. He eventually found the wedding band but not able to locate the engagement ring. That really bothered me cause I knew it couldn’t be far but a 9 hour drive kept me from going. Anyways, here is the story from my friend Jason from Georgia.

“Your ring is still there,” said Steve, trying to reassure me over the phone. I had given up hope. On March 3 my wife lost both her wedding band and engagement ring on the grassy shoulder of a two-lane highway in rural Georgia. I rented a metal detector and contacted my friend Steve in Ohio for advice since I knew he had experience with this sort of thing. Thanks to his guidance, I located the wedding band, but after returning three times to search with my rented equipment, I finally despaired of ever again regaining my wife’s engagement ring.

Then Steve came down to Georgia for some turkey hunting with me. Six weeks had passed since my wife lost her ring, but one afternoon on our way back from the field, he suggested that we go have another look. Even though I had little expectation that we would find the ring, I agreed.

The rough grass along the road’s edge was now twice as tall. We found plenty of buried aluminum cans and other random garbage. I felt like we were wasting time, but Steve was not dissuaded from his task. After searching for about an hour, his equipment gave him the kind of strong reading that he was hoping for. “This could be it,” he said. Something small and round was sparkling in the sunlight as the detector’s coil swept the grass to and fro. We both knew what it was.

I had spent more than twelve hours searching that highway shoulder with speeding automobiles whizzing by just a few feet from my head, without finding that elusive engagement ring. Now Steve, with his experience and advanced equipment, had located the ring in barely an hour.

That evening I surprised my wife with the ring, and her relief and elation was a thrill to behold. Thanks Steve

Diamond Rings Found in the Naples Florida Sand by Metal Detector Mark Greul & why you need to hire a professional metal detector

  • from Marco Island (Florida, United States)
Contact:

[April 23, 2019 – Naples, Florida] Got a call from Brian’s wife who reported having lost two rings at the beach.  The rings she’s carefully guarded in her pocket were likely lost as she was tending her children and applying more sunscreen.  So, why hire a professional metal detector?  Well, several hours of searching, traffic, and sifting through the sand had only managed to broaden the search area and drive the rings deeper.  The wedding band was the first to be found.  It gave off a faint signal being buried in about 5-6 inches of sand and canted at a 45 decgree angle.  The diamond solitaire proved to be a bit more tricky.  It was found nearby, yielding only an occasional very very faint signal as it was 6-8 inches deep standing nearly straight up.  The rest is now history and another “story” added to a family’s memorable vacation in Naples, Florida.  What was once lost has been found – thank God!

If you’ve lost a ring or sentimental item, don’t hesitate calling.  Literally, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!  With years of metal detecting experience, the best and most sophisticated metal detecting equipment, and numerous recoveries and even more finds, the testimonials and results are why you need to hire a professional metal detector.  Call Mark (239)500-RING [7464] or Text (239)770-7873 – metal detector rental services – Naples, Marco Island, Ft. Myers, Bonita Beach, Estero, and greater South Florida.  It’s only lost until you call!

Boundary markers located in Zeeland, Michigan

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Got a call today from Dave E., requesting help in finding a couple of boundary markers for his yard.  He just bought this new house in January and now he has plans to add some shrubbery and a privacy screen for his hot tub and really needs to know the exact boundaries of his property.  I called my ringfinder fellow hunter, Gregg Larabel, and he and I drove out to Dave’s house today.  One side of Dave’s property was marked on the road pavement with the estimated boundary.  We measured in 33 feet from the center of the road and found the first marker with really no trouble.  The next step was to find the marker in the very back of his corner lot.  In the picture with Dave you can see the neighbors play area/slide for their kids and Dave’s boundary marker is just to the left of that play area.  We had a little trouble finding that marker, finding a sprinkler head first and then the play area had a steel edging around it.  Finally found the steel rod but the yellow cap was missing on this rod.  The third corner steel boundary marker was sticking out of the ground already, so now he knows the exact area of his corner lot.  After some good stories back and forth we  parted our ways with another good job done.

Wedding Ring Found In Vermont Country Town

  • from Barre (Vermont, United States)
Contact:

4/22/19
About a week ago I got an email from the wife of a gentleman who had lost his wedding ring on their rural Vermont farm. This young couple had bought a beautiful 50 acre farm a little over a year ago.

Last Spring, when the snows left, he headed outside to work. He had been working in the garden and chasing a runaway pig out in their hayfield. When he went back in the house, he noticed his ring was missing from his finger. He was very devastated because this ring had also been his father’s wedding ring. Every time he went to visit his dad he hoped he wouldn’t notice it was missing.

So, we had to wait until today to search, because of late melting snow and ice. When I got there he showed me the areas to search. I expected at least a 3 hour search, but I found it about 6” deep in his garden, and in the first 5 minutes! I yelled across the yard to him and he hooted and hollered back with a very happy sound. Very very happy man!!

Lost Ring Recovered from Forest Lake Minnesota Ballfield.

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)

Playing with the dog in the snow.

 

It was an early December evening and my client was playing with her dog in the snow on a baseball field when she slipped and fell. When she was wiping herself off she noticed her ring was missing.  She searched with friends for her ring and was unable to locate it.  They looked up Ringfinders.com in the area and came across Paul Nolan and gave him a call and Paul agreed to swing out and help them in there search.  We could not meet on site so I sent them an overhead photo that I had put a labeled grid over the photo and sent it to them. They identified the locations where they where at the time of the loss.  I went out and gave the baseball field a good search where most of the footprints were in the snow and came up empty. That search has around 2 hours. I hate leaving without finding what I went out for, but it was getting cold and late. So over the next couple days I repeated searching and put in another 4 hours or so searching.  I was getting a lot of hits but down 2″ so I was ruling them out but still had to confirm it was not the ring in the snow.  It was taking a lot of time being a ball park with a lot of pull tabs and bottle tops.

I called them and thought we would have to try after the snow had gone in the spring.

On a April 18, 2019 I went into work early and was on my way home earlier then normal so I decided to take a swing by the ball field and give it another look. I could tell by the foot prints in the softer ballfield infield that people had been out and the tracks were in the same areas of the lost ring. I knew no one had found the ring with all the foot prints so I continued my quest.  I spent about an hour and a half in the outfield looking in the grass and also put a grid over the infield. I was feeling like I had covered every inch of the place a couple of times with my cross grid.  I was working my way back to my car and when I was in the first base line I got a quick hit.  I had looked down and about 75% covered in the dirt was a small gold ring. What a feeling.  That’s got to be it.  I made it back to my car and started going through my phone looking for the number of the client. I had photos from when I was first out on site. I gave them a call and talked to her husband  and he said she was on her way home from work. I told him who I was and asked if they had found the ring yet? He confirmed that they had not, but had been out looking for it.  I asked him to identify it again and he gave the description to a tee.  I told him that I had it and if he want to meet me at the park I would get it back to him for a nice spring surprise.  We met and he was elated to have it back. It was a ring that he had given to his wife when they went on their fist vacation together in the Dakotas.  It was not a real big ring, but it had a big place in her heart.  Knowing that you had just made someone’s day never gets old.

 

Attached is the ring after it was removed from the ground and cleaned up a bit.  

Zoomed in

 

So you can see why it was so had to spot.  Congratulations on your ring back. You now have a little more of a story to go with it.

Raleigh Ring Recovery – Lost For 10 Years – Found!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

My wife thinks this is my best recovery ever — it’s certainly the most romantic.

I was contacted by a man who had lost his platinum wedding ring almost immediately after his wedding — about 10 years ago. At the time, they were living in an apartment complex and although they extensively searched the apartment grassy area where he believed he had lost it, they were unable to recover it.

Although the ring had long since been replaced, their 10-year wedding anniversary was coming up, and he thought recovering the original ring in celebration of that milestone would be a nice surprise for his wife. He contacted the apartment management and was able to get permission for me to detect the area at the complex where they had been living 10 years ago, and it took me a little less than an hour to find it. Reuniting a ring and its owner is always a great feeling! Happy Anniversary!

How To Find A Lost Ring – Raleigh

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)
Contact:

It happens. People lose things all the time, but this recovery was special.

I was contacted by a woman who had lost her late husband’s wedding ring. If that sounds odd, it’s because she was wearing it. After her husband passed, she started wearing his ring and her own, with her ring on the outside as a “stop” to keep her husband’s larger ring from falling off.

On this particular day, she had decided to garden in her yard and for whatever reason, had reversed the rings on her finger (so the husband’s was on the outside). Without her smaller ring to anchor it, her husband’s ring came off and she was unable to find it. Given her sentimental attachment to the lost ring, finding it was imperative!

She showed me where she had been gardening, pruning, trimming, and other yard tasks, which turned out to cover a rectangular area about 75 ft x 10 ft. I was able to find the ring buried down in the dirt and return it — a happy ending is always a good way to end the day!
