SILVER COIN COLLECTION AND GOLD POCKET WATCHES LOST IN THE PALISADES FIRE FOUND AND RETURNED

  • from Santa Monica (California, United States)

 

Mike called me last week and told me that his father lost his house in the palisades fire. He had a large bag of silver coins and several gold pocket watches that he was afraid were lost in the fire.  I assured him that there was still a chance that it could be recovered.  I met his father and his sister Wendy in the morning to follow them to the property.  It was a large property and there was a lot of debris  to remove. Wendy gave me some ideas of were her fathers desk was located and the bags of silver coins consisting of quarters dimes half dollars and silver dollars were supposed to be located under the desk. I raked shoveled and sifted for a couple of hours when finally a giant blob of silver emerged from the ashes.  most of the coins had melted together. the mass was over 10 pounds of silver but you could see the outline of some of the coins. I also found some loose silver coins that had not fused with the blob. I also recovered three gold pocket watches  two sterling silver antique cigarette cases and a very sentimental silver letter opener that wendy’s father had gotten as a gift when he went to Israel many years before with his parents. I must have returned over 200 silver coins to wendy and mikes father but he was just as excited about the letter opener from Jerusalem.  The whole family was nice,  grateful and a pleasure  to talk to and it was my privilege to  be able to help them.

Lost wedding ring found in Charlottesville, Virginia.

  • from Charlottesville (Virginia, United States)

Lost your ring, jewelry, cell phone, keys… Don’t wait until it’s too late. Text or email ASAP 24/7 Mark at 434-987-0568.

I received a text message from Peter last night asking for help finding his wedding ring. He lost it while clearing brush from a steep leaf covered hillside behind his home in Charlottesville, Virginia.

I met Peter this morning at 8 AM and listened as he described where he was and what he was doing when he noticed his ring had come off. He was pretty sure that he had noticed right away when the ring was missing, so this really helped narrow the search area.

Starting at the bottom of the hill, I did a careful grid search working my way to the top in the most likely area. There were many metal targets, but nothing that sounded like a ring. Then I selected a second search area, and within a couple minutes got that beautiful sound that I had been hoping for. At the base of a small tree a few inches down in the leaves was the wedding ring.

This was my first recovery with The Ring Finders, and I was so happy to be able to return this ring to Peter and his wife.

Cellphone Lost on the Beach Saved from Beach Cleaning Machine .. Newport Beach, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

If you have lost something on the beach, timing is important. “ Call or text Stan the Metal Detector Man for prompt response.. 1-949-500-2136


*** Phil called me early in the morning. He had lost his cellphone the night before in the sand. When he told me about the location of the loss my heart sank. The beaches in Newport are machine sifted almost daily. Especially the towel line where most the beach goers congregate.

I explained that our chances of finding it may be difficult because so much time had passed since the loss.  I was willing to give it a try if he could meet me at the location.

This time we were lucky. The beach king sifting machine had already passed through this section of the beach.  For some reason the tractor pulling the machine had swerved around a small section of the towel line  and it missed the cellphone. Amazing story that I could not believe.

Phil showed up a few minutes after I found the phone with my Minelab Manticore metal detector. The tractor and sifter tracks were still freshly visible in the sand. He was able to witness how close the sifting machine had missed his cellphone.

Another example that you can’t find it , if you don’t try.

Ring Finder in Ashburn, Virginia Recovers 2.5 Carat Diamond Ring from Garbage Bag Before Trash Pickup

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)

Bindiya’s 14 karat white gold, 2.5 carat diamond engagement / wedding ring with .35 carat accent diamonds on both sides of the band’s bridge – recovered by THE RING HERO, Brian Rudolph

Bindiya, Arjun and brother celebrate the fantastic ring recovery performed by ring finder, Brian Rudolph (also known as THE RING HERO)

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (also known as THE RING HERO) searches  Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses and Vehicles. He Will Find Your Lost Item! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

Bindiya called me in desperation after she lost her 14 karat white gold, 2.5 carat diamond engagement / wedding ring with .35 carat accent diamonds on both sides of the band’s bridge.

The client found me on the THE RING FINDERS website, an elite international directory of specialized metal detectorists.

Bindiya shared that she lost her precious ring sometime in the past couple of days prior to calling me. She remembered coming home with it but then at some point she looked down and the ring was not on her finger any longer. The desperate woman searched everywhere in the house but all of her efforts led to no avail.

Eventually, she looked online for help to find her irreplaceable keepsake. As soon as I started talking with the young lady, I began asking every question possible. I asked her where the garbage was and if it was already picked up by the county. Bindiya explained that she had already looked through the garbage and then placed the bags back in the can and wheeled it out to the end of her driveway for pickup that day.

I immediately told my client to take the trash can back up to the garage and wait for my arrival. She didn’t think there was any way that the ring could have ended up in the trash because she had already thoroughly looked through the garbage bags just in case she had discarded the precious piece of jewelry in the throwaways.

When I arrived at the Asburn, Virginia residence, Arjun (Bindiya’s husband), took me through their house and showed me all of the places that his wife had been around during the time of the ring’s disappearance. I immediately started to probe the furniture and metal detected clothes and other important objects in multiple rooms throughout the large beautiful home. After a couple of hours, I was pretty convinced that the ring was not in the house.

At some point, Bindiya returned home with the children and I gave her a summary of all of the places that I had searched but with no positive results. I even asked the children what they remembered on the evening when the ring was identified as missing. One of the kids thought that her mother opened the trash can under the sink to discard some food from the evening dinner. It was at that moment that I insisted that I should inspect and metal detect the bags of garbage that I requested Bindiya to remove from the curb earlier in the day. The garbage was the last place that needed to be searched before I would have to call it quits.

I went out to the garage, retrieved all of my necessary equipment to do the search and then began metal detecting every piece of trash that was in the suspected bags. Once I finished the first white trash bag, I began metal detecting all of the contents in the second plastic receptacle. Bindiya, Arjun and his brother restlessly watched over my investigation in the cold garage, hoping that my hunch in finding the beautiful piece of jewelry would be correct. As it turned out, my suspicions turned out to be 100% accurate! When I reached the bottom of the trash bag, I metal detected all of the contents that were mixed in a pile of coffee grounds. It was there that my handheld metal detector began to beep and there it was! My eyes beheld the most amazing looking diamond ring just “swimming” in the mixture of all of the black grounds and miscellaneous pieces of rubbish!

The family went crazy the moment I revealed my incredible recovery! This irreplaceable sentimental ring (which also had a tremendous monetary value attached to it) would have been lost forever at the central city dump had it not been for my strong advice to my client to bring that trash back to the house! That was the advice of an experienced RING HERO and I am so proud to share that this amazing ring was yet another sentimental keepsake rescued from the snares of the county’s trash incinerator and horrific dump site!

Lost wedding ring on Cocoa Beach

  • from Melbourne Beach (Florida, United States)

 

I got the call from Laurens husband that she had just lost her wedding rings at the beach. I was able to get there the next day to hunt for the rings.  The area where they thought the rings were lost was the size of a football field.  I thought to myself this is going to take awhile. The search went better than expected and the rings were found. Another great day for the Ringfinders.

Lost Wedding Ring, Point Pleasant Beach NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Valerie called, asking if I could come to the beach to help find her brother’s wedding ring. They had all been at the beach the day before, playing spike ball behind their towels, and it was only later that evening that her brother realized his ring was missing. They were sure it had to be where they had been playing. I told her I could head out that evening, after the beach cleared a bit, as it was a hot, busy day. I also mentioned that the beach they were at was heavily searched by metal detectorists after hours. Luckily, the area where they had been playing was farther back from the typical search zones.

I arrived at the beach about 30 minutes before Valerie and began searching based on the pictures and aerial map she had sent. I hadn’t had any luck when I noticed a text from Valerie and her friend, Dave, letting me know they had arrived. I showed them the area I had already covered, and they realized they were actually about 50 to 75 feet farther back than they initially thought. Fortunately, the area was still clear despite the warm evening.

After about 15 minutes of searching in the new area, I got a solid tone on my metal detector. Sure enough, it was what we believed to be her brother’s wedding ring. Valerie wasn’t certain at first, but after texting her brother, he confirmed it was his. We took a few pictures and did a video call with him to share the good news. He was so grateful to have his wedding band back. Another successful recovery!

Chris and Hollie were savoring a perfect day at the beach in Ocean City, NJ. They had spent the day soaking up the warm sun, cooling off with a refreshing swim. But when Chris dove into a wave, his wedding band slipped off his finger and vanished into the churning water.
The next morning, Chris called me. Could I help him find his lost ring? I got the details and made my way to the beach, arriving just as the tide was going out. Chris and Hollie were waiting anxiously, but trying to stay positive as they got ice cream and settled in to watch me search.
The water was waist-deep and murky, with a strong current that made it hard to walk. I moved slowly and methodically, scanning the ocean floor as I went. About 25 minutes later my metal detector buzzed. I scooped down and saw the ring in the scoop!
I emerged from the water, walking back to where they were sitting. Chris and Hollie were overjoyed, their faces lighting up with relief and happiness. Finding the ring was the perfect way to end their day at the beach in Ocean City, NJ.
