Lost Ring Found in Burlington VT

5/9/20
I got an email yesterday from a woman who lost a ring a week ago. She and her boyfriend looked for it all week with no luck, and were about to go buy a detector to find it. The ring hadn’t come from an expensive jewelry store, but was special to her because her boyfriend had made it for her, and it is a very cool ring!

I went over and she showed me the search area. It included the backyard where they had planted clover over a large area and flower bulbs along a fence. She had also possibly lost it on a 100 yard sidewalk.

I started where the bulbs were, got lots of nail and scrap signals. This property had been lived and worked on for probably the last 200 years! Then we went down the sidewalk with no luck. Lastly, I figured the best thing to do was a grid search of the back lawn where they had just tilled and planted clover. Lots of signals!! On the third pass, I got a signal with numbers all over the scale, but dug it anyway. There it was! I got cheers from her and her boyfriend who were with me and cheers came out if the house windows, too! I didn’t realize there was such a big audience!

Lost Gold Wedding Ring Re-recovered Vienna, VA

  • from Fairfax (Virginia, United States)
Contact:

March 30th, 2020. Matt again called to report he’s lost his ring. He was doing some habitual, unplanned weeding in the yard when he realized too late that he forgot to remove the ring. After searching for about 30 minutes I found the ring at the base of some liriope grass. It was barely visible in the dry mulch, but un-findable without a detector. Go ahead and enlarge the photo…you really can see it!

It’s Right There

2nd Time Recovered

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The whole time, Matt had a great sense of humor about the situation and vowed to put the ring on a necklace until he had it resized. No “smile” photo as requested.

Lost Wedding Ring Lost While Doing Yard-Work in Haddon Township NJ During the Coronavirus Outbreak (COVID-19)

I received an email early in the morning from Mischa. He reports that he lost his wedding ring the day before while adding new mulch to his flower beds. We made arrangements for me to search after work.

I met Mischa and asked him several questions. He showed me the search area. All of the flower beds are up against a chain-link fence. I started to search with the smallest coil I have.

I searched all of the beds with no luck. I moved to another detector to search his travel paths to see if it fell off out of the beds. No luck. Mischa was thanking me for looking. I told him I wasn’t done yet.

I went back to the beds, on my hands & knees, pulled all of the mulch away from the fence and searched with my pin-pointer. Next to the last bed, I found it. The chain-link fence was too big for my metal detector to find the smaller ring. He was so happy. We maintained social distancing, no hand shakes or bro hugs. The search took a little over an hour.

I love my hobby!!

Lost Wedding Ring in West Chester PA Found By Dave Milsted During Coronavirus Outbreak (COVID-19)

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

 

April 25th, 2020 was going to be the most beautiful day of the week. So I had made arrangements to meet Mark at his parent’s house. This is where his wife lost her wedding ring a week ago playing field hockey in the backyard.

The area was beautiful, foggy, and a nice wet lawn, easier to track where I have been detecting, so I don’t miss anywhere. Mark wasn’t there yet, so I met his dad, Dennis. We did the whole social distancing thing.

He showed me a vast backyard, where they played field hockey last weekend. I asked if they were in any particular area, and he pointed to more then half of the yard. Oh boy, this could take a while. I went back to my SUV and got my detector.

I just started to search, and I heard someone say hello, I had headphones on, so I began to look around. It was Mark. I asked him a few questions. He was able to narrow the search area down a little. I was going to start my search at the swing set.

I started to search, and I got a good signal. I couldn’t see anything because the grass was so thick. I used my pin-pointer and spread open the grass, and there was a beautiful white gold wedding ring with several small diamonds. Less than 2 minutes of searching, it was in my hand. I needed that. I took a few pictures.

Mark was up on the deck. I started walking towards him and asked is there any area that his wife was in the most. I said that I didn’t want to be here all day. I said I had another question that might help. Does her ring look like this? And I opened my hand. The look on his face was priceless. No hugs or handshakes. Just smiles.

I asked for his wife’s cell number and sent her a few pictures. Within 30 seconds she called Mark in total disbelief. She worried all night that I wasn’t going to find it. I had told Mark when he contacted me earlier in the week that if it were in the yard, I would find it. He believed me until his wife changed his mind overnight. I love my hobby!!

Joy,happiness and a returned diamond engagement ring during Covid chaos in Media, PA

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Kelsey found me in the online directory and contacted me to see if I could help her locate her beautiful white gold and diamond engagement ring. Her and her fiancee, Sasha’s, wedding plans are on hold due to this Covid chaos but they are so happy and looking forward to their future together. Understandably, Kelsey was quite upset about her lost ring. She had been beating a dirty mat over the edge of a 2nd story deck of her home when she felt her ring slip off and fall into a large flower bed underneath the deck. She spent several hours digging through the leaves and dirt before contacting me. When I arrived she walked through exactly what  happened by re-enacting the incident. The area where lost was a small area but overgrown with healthy rhododendron bushes and lots of leaves. As I always do…I demonstrated how my equipment works to both of them so they could have confidence in my competence and provide some optimism. I spent about 10-15 minutes working the area right below where she was standing on the deck as they stood behind me(social distance!) watching. After a few false signals due to trash and nails I got a good “gold” signal on my machine….my pinpointer zeroed right in on the lost ring. I live for the rush of watching the overwhelming joy and relief on the face of the people I am able to return rings to. Kelsey was no exception…I was so happy to reunite her with her ring and bring joy to her in this time of stress, anxiety and uncertainty.

Lost Diamond Engagement Ring in a Laguna Beach House.. Found in Sofa

Call… Stan The Metal Detector Man to help you find your sentimental keepsake… Available Now ..  949-500-2136

***  Darin’s fiancé lost her diamond engagement ring in their Laguna Beach house. She last remembered setting it on the table next to her laptop computer while she types.  Darin made the call asking for assistance. I said, I would need to be able to talk to his fiancé when I get to the home.

We met shortly after the phone call. Calle showed me the table where she uses her computer. She was sure that the ring was on the table the last she remembered. I asked if it was loose fitting and if she had left the house. Also, when did she realize the ring was missing. 

Often rings left on tables, counters, etc. get knocked off into drawers, shoes, anything that maybe on the floor. Sometimes that box, piece of clothing, etc. may get moved to another location or kicked under the stove / refrigerator. Calle did say the ring was loose needing to be resized. That could mean it could have fallen of when putting things in boxes, drawers or trash.

She was in the car when realizing that her ring was missing. We eliminated the car then went through the trash. Even taking a few seconds to passing my pinpointer over their dog’s stomach. Most the in house search was done using the handheld pinpointer detector. There were no places for the ring to hide near the computer table.  We finally located the beautiful diamond engagement ring in a fold of the sofa that drapes down the front of the sofa.

It had been torn loose by the dog and Calle often tucks it in place. She was embarrassed that she hadn’t remembered that action. 

I was glad for the ring was found because the next place to search was a two block area street search where Calle had walked the dog. Darin and Calle were very happy and surprised to have the original symbol of a special day in their lives back where it belongs. It was an honor and a pleasure to help them.

Lost Ring Perdido Beach – FOUND!!!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

Well this is a ring return I won’t ever forget. Even Covid-19 couldn’t stop this nice lady from getting her ring back on her finger. Two days ago, Tyler and her family were in Perdido Beach and on the way back to the car she had her engagement ring on her child’s stroller. As you can imagine, she hit a bumpy patch and by the time she got back to the car her ring was gone on the beach. Yesterday she posted all over social media in hopes that someone may have found it. This is usually a really bad idea because with that much info, someone that is not interested in returning it can find it and move along. Luckily a few people recommended my services (thank you!) and she sent me an email. She didn’t provide any information and didn’t even give me a phone number. Even though I sent her a few emails back she didn’t reply or call. This is totally normal because she was so shocked, I know she was probably trying to make sure she didn’t get scammed with promises of help and she was overwhelmed with the prospect of losing her ring forever. I felt bad for her and I knew that the longer all of the information stayed on the internet, the higher the chance she would never get it back. My friend Charlie and I had the chance to get out today and I talked him into heading to the area. Once there we were very lucky to find it pretty quickly based on our experience with where she may have lost it. I finally posted on Explore Pensacola and she called within the hour. I invited Tyler and her husband to my home and did my first ever social distancing ring return. 😃. I think they were both shocked that a total stranger would just go get her ring for her. I’m very glad to be able to do it. Thanks for the assist today Charlie!  God bless you all!!! 💍

Youngster Lost Pool Key after Falling into Ivy Landscaping .. Dana Point, CA. .. Found by a Lucky Dad

Metal Detector Man available to help you now ..

Call or Text Now    ….   Stan   949-500-2136

***  Justin had been walking on a sidewalk with his 5 year old son near their condo. His son had been holding the pool key that had a unique yellow plastic pineapple fob. His son tripped taking a pretty tough fall. The key went flying into the ivy.

Justin had to comfort his son as the little guy was quite shaken up. After the little guy calmed down they realized that the key was missing. They were already back home, so Justin spent two hours searching each side of the walkway. The next morning he spent another four hours with no luck. The key wasn’t hard to replace but it had a $250 deposit and it would take another $250 to get another key.

I met him at his home in Dana Point, CA. He guided me to a parking place very close to the walkway. I asked him to show me the general location before I took my equipment out of the car. As we walked to the zone, I mentioned to him that he might find it before I do. It has happened several times before.

Justin showed me an area approximately 40 feet long mostly covered with a large leaf ivy only about 8 inches thick. I felt it wouldn’t be a problem to find the key with my 15 inch coil on the Equinox 800. Before going to my car to get the detector, I asked him to describe the plastic yellow pineapple fob. He looked down at the ivy where there was a yellow ivy leaf, he pointed at the leaf then reached down picking up the missing key lying right next to the yellow leaf.

After Justin had spent 6 hours of searching. He found the key in 10 minutes while showing me where to search. The first time for him but not the first time for me. What is most important, is that the item gets found. I didn’t even have to fire up my detector. It’s all charged up ready for the next call out.

Gold Ring With Topaz Stone Lost in Sand at Manhattan Beach, CA…Found and Happily Returned.

Contact:

Steve’s Emergency Metal Detecting Service For You if you lost a ring or something precious to you. Don’t wait, time will work against you, please CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! 310-953-5268

I got a call from Liz’s boyfriend last night about 9:30 PM regarding a ring she lost at the beach earlier. She had been down on the sand enjoying the cool of the evening after a hot day, and also enjoying the bioluminesence show that we have been experiencing lately. After we talked, he had her call me to explain the loss and answer some questions she had regarding our service. After a few minutes of discussion we agreed to meet at the beach as soon as I could get there.

I got to the area at about 10:00 PM, and met Liz and her father, and they took me out to where they remembered being when they were out earlier. She showed me what had happened, that with a flip of the wrist the ring was gone. She had a good idea of where it landed, but was unable to find it, even though she diligently searched for it. I turned on the detector, and in two passes got a good clean signal, and dug. I seemed to move the item around, so I had to scoop a couple more times. In the bottom of the scoop was a real cool looking gold ring with a topaz stone. She was very excited to know that it was found, and it was nice to know that she was going to sleep well last night.

Newly-wed lost ring in De Luz (Recovered!)

  • from Arkansas City (Kansas, United States)
Contact:

Received a call from Andrew who had lost his wedding ring a week ago. He was weed whacking on the side of a hill and slipped on the steep slope. After awhile he realized his new ring was missing! He came back another day and brought his fathers metal detector. After searching for an hour with no luck, he eventually found the ringfinders and gave me a call. The area it could have been lost was about 100 yards and the slope was much steeper than expected. To make it more difficult, the ring was made of steel which has a very similar tone as iron. After searching for only 10 minutes digging a couple of nails and iron junk, out popped Andrews very nice wedding ring. I told Andrew to open his hand and dropped the ring into his palm. “No way you found it!!!” Thrilled to be a part of another successful ring return. Best wishes to Andrew and his new bride!
