Platinum Wedding Ring Lost during an afternoon of yard work in Houston, Texas recovered by John Volek-TRF Houston

I was contacted by Drew a resident of Houston, Texas who was looking for help in finding his lost Platinum wedding band in the backyard of his residence. Drew reported he had spent a day doing yard work, digging irrigation draining, laying pavers, and setting ornamental rocks throughout the backyard of his residence. Drew said, at the conclusion of the day he realized his wedding band was no longer on his finger.

Drew said he spend a few hours searching for his ring realizing he may have very well buried under a paver, decorative stones, or even some of the new sod. Drew said a short internet search led him to The Ring Finders, and he placed the call.

After setting a time with Drew, I arrived and commenced an in-depth search of the backyard, having to use the handheld ofter to work around large metallic components, pool equipment, air conditioners, and metal perimeter edging. After not have any success after the 3rd sweep of all the areas in question, Drew and I retraced his steps and he recalled having jumped into the pool at one point during the day. The bottom of the pool checked clear, but the creepy crawler and sucked up his ring and was found in the collection basket.

Not your traditional recovery, but it turned out to be a good day!

Gold wedding band found quickly in garden

  • from Reading (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Received a text that Logan had lost his wedding band while preparing his garden for the season. He lost it a few weeks before finding the The ringfinder service online. He told me he was delaying anymore work on the garden until I could search for his ring. We had to wait another week before our schedules aligned to search. He showed me the general area he lost it while throwing rocks from the garden. While he went to the house to get something, I began searching and found the ring in under five minutes. As he came back outside, I was approaching the house and handed him his ring. He was so excited that he found theringfinders.com and that I could return his ring. He is now completing his garden for the season.

Lost Gold Ring Found In Novi Michigan

He Was Just Served…….

….and as the ball crossed over the net, Karthik jumped into the air spiking the ball back across and into the ground.

As the teams went back and forth rhythmically rotating players in order, the game ended with disorder on the court when Karthik noticed his ring was missing. A few people helped to search in the dark but no luck. Upon arriving this morning Karthik and I discussed details as a light rain was coming down. Deciding to search the sand in the direction of the spike revealed nothing. Rethinking, I started to scan a grid pattern in the grass area. After a few minutes my MXT metal detector gave me a good signal and just below the grass and quite a distance from the volleyball court this very nice gold ring with a silver band revealed itself! Even tho his team lost, he now holds the record for the longest distance a ring has been spiked!

Lost Platinum Wedding Ring TIKI Island Galveston, Texas (recovered)

Massive Platinum Wedding Ring lost off the dock on TIKI Island-Galveston, Texas recovered by Houston Metal Detecting Services (Members of The Ring Finders)

I was contacted by Mike a resident of TIKI Island -Galveston, Texas who was looking for help in recovering his platinum wedding ring lost off the dock behind his home.  Mike reported following an unexpected water-related kayak incident, his ring slipped off his finger and landed in the water near the edge of the dock. Mike reported the water was about 4′ deep and the bottom had a somewhat muddy bottom.  Mike stated he attempted to recover the ring with a homemade sift but was unsuccessful at recovering his ring. Mike said later that day a short internet search led him to The Ring Finders website, and he placed the call!

Mike said his wife had the ring made for him and he was extremely motivated about trying to recover this one-of-a-kind platinum wedding ring.  Mike and I made arrangements to meet the following day to attempt a recovery of his lost ring.

Some days all things come together, this day was no exception, Mike’s ring was laying on the edge of the only hard pack material next to the dock, another foot out, and it would have possibly been unrecoverable due to the bottomless silt just off that ledge.

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

I received a call from Joe and his wife looking for help finding his wedding ring which he lost while fishing in the Saddle River.  After discussing the location and depth of the river where the ring was lost, we agreed to meet the next morning at the river.  Joe was awesome!  He knew almost exactly where he had lost the ring and was able to point me right to the location.  After a short search, I was able to find the ring under a small layer of silt.  I was incredibly happy to be able to return the ring!  I know the ring meant a lot to Joe, so it really meant a lot to me to be able to help!

Gold men’s wedding band lost in the grass at Boynton Beach, Florida Found and returned to owner.

  • from Fort Lauderdale (Florida, United States)
Contact:

I met my customer . he said that he was waving his hand to one of his friends and his ring flew off. he was saying that it flew about 20 feet. but after searching for a while there I asked more questions. I found that it must not have gone that far. so I reexamined the area closer. I   was only getting a target that sounded like a penny.  but guess what after checking the target out .. it was his ring. he was very happy. and left me this beautiful testimonial.

 

Testimonial……………………………………………..

Waving to a friend, my wedding band flew off my hand. First time ever in 60 years the ring left my hand. Looked in the grass unsuccessfully .
Sent text to Craig Marten explaining my issue at 10:15 PM. He was at my home ready to search at 10:00 AM the next day.
10:45 AM he found my ring.
Very grateful of his quick response and successful result.

Lost Brass Ganesha Medallion at Ala Moana Beach Park…FOUND!!!

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


This hunt began late last night when I received a call from Lance who resides in Arlington, Virginia and was visiting friends on Oahu. While playing volleyball on the beach, Lance noticed his Brass Ganesha Medallion had fallen off but he wasn’t exactly sure when during the volleyball game it happened. Luckily he played in the same general area so the search grid was only about 5 yards by 10 yards in size. I wasn’t quite sure what numbers brass would ring up on the Nox but I figured this area of the beach is fairly clean so we dig it all. First target was an 8 but it was so small the target kept going through the netting of my scoop. Oh well! Not what I’m looking for. Next target was a 20-21 which is usually a Zincoln Cent but to my surprise there was Lance’s Brass Ganesha Medallion in the scoop. Elapsed search time 2 minutes. Another quick successful hunt. Lance by the way is a rapper and his newly released song is hitting the airwaves now. I’m a rock-n-roller so I wasn’t very enthused. But the song did have a catchy beat I’m sure the younger generation will crave for more. Aloha to Lance the Rapper!

Class of 1985 gold college ring…lost, recovered and returned in Collegeville, PA!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Received a text from Karen today seeking help in finding her boyfriend’s lost college ring. She found me in the Ring Finders directory and I returned her text with a phone call to discuss the lost ring. Karen conveyed to me that(1 year ago!) she was mowing the backyard lawn of her home in the Skippack/Collegeville area of PA while her boyfriend, Eric, was also doing some work in the backyard. As she was mowing she saw a large branch in her way and asked Eric to pick it up and heave it out of the way to the side of the yard. In doing so Eric felt his prized college ring fly off his finger in the same direction of the branch…somewhere in the corner of the yard. They searched for hours and even rented a metal detector to try to find with no luck. As the year passed Karen never forgot about the missing ring and was determined to find and return it to Eric…she finally reached out to a “Ring Finder”.

I arrived to her home around 3:30 pm on the same day she contacted me. We went straight back to the area where the loss occurred. As I always do I took a second to demonstrate my equipment with my own ring….I want people to feel confident that if the ring is there…I’m going to find it! She re-enacted the loss and showed me exactly which direction the branch and ring were thrown. I’ve learned over the years to prioritize the most likely search areas first and then expand outward. I was there about 5 minutes and on my 4th signal I knew I had it before I even bent down. It was a clean and solid gold tone 1 inch beneath the surface. I grabbed my pinpointer an targeted its exact location just under the surface and gently moved a 1/2 inch of dirt and saw the gold shine through. Before digging any further I called Karen over and asked her to take  a look….she was amazed!!! We gently moved a little more dirt and plucked this beauty out of the ground! As a Ring Finder I always tell people how much more fun it is when you are able to come through and find and return the item! Karen and Eric were very happy!!!!

Lost White Gold Wedding Ring at Naia Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

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


This Ring Find began as my detecting buddy Terry & I were wrapping up our day hunting for a lost white gold wedding band in Naia Lagoon. We found a total of 4 Gold Rings but none were the one we were looking for. As I was heading to the shower a Gentleman and his wife asked if we found anything. I showed them my carabiner with the four Gold Rings attached. They both immediately said, “That’s my husband’s/my ring” as they pointed at the White Gold Ring my buddy Terry had found 4 hours earlier that morning in the lagoon. He said he could prove it as he had a picture on his phone with that ring on his finger. Sure enough he did and to be sure I asked him where in the lagoon he lost it and he pointed to the exact spot. There was no doubt in my mind it was his. As I looked towards the lagoon where he pointed there was my fellow ring finder Don exiting the water with his assistant that I don’t know. Don asked, “Did you find the ring?” and I held it up for him to see. Don had done a 5 hour hunt for the ring previously but the tide was super high and he wasn’t able to get to the spot without scuba gear. Terry found the ring at a super low tide in neck deep water. Don & I have collaborated on hunts in the past we were both just thrilled that the ring was back on the husband’s finger. We had a few laughs together and then I was asked to hunt for a just dropped Gold Cross you can see in the previous blog. I think it’s going to be a busy detecting Summer. Aloha to all involved and of course the happy couple who had their ring returned.
