Marquis was out in his uncle’s fenced-in yard working with his dogs when he made a sudden motion with his arm and unfortunately his awesome gold ring went flying. Unable to find it, he went and got a metal detector. This yard happens to have a lot of electromagnetic interference along with many false targets making it nearly impossible for a first time detectorist to make any sense of what they are hearing. Luckily he discovered Ring Finders and contacted me. I was able to get out there the same day and after about a half hour of searching found the ring hiding in the grass. I’m very happy to be able to help with another recovery.

Lost Diamond Ring Found At Apartment Complex

  • from Santa Cruz (California, United States)
Contact:

Yesterday I received a referral from Jes Muse, Ringfinder in San Francisco for a lost ring in Sunnyvale.  Rohit, who had lost the ring the night before, contacted me shortly after looking for some support in finding his fiance’s lost ring at their apartment complex.  He described a small area of grass and landscaped shrubbery where the ring was likely located.

When I arrived today, Rohit explained that they had lost the ring while playing a game right outside their apartment.  He described a situation of the ring being accidentally thrown and then hearing it bounce off of a wall.  However he and his fiance had looked for the ring for hours prior to my arrival.  Given the beautifully manicured lawns and landscaping of the apartments, I knew the ring would be easy to find with a metal detector if it was there, and I started my search right where Rohit said he thought the ring would be.

Sure enough, within about 10 minutes of searching, I detected a surface target right in the perfect “ring” range, and when I bent down to inspect it I saw a hint of gold peeking out from the blades of grass.

Rohit and his fiance were very excited that I found the ring as she has a flight back to her work scheduled this evening.  I’m glad they had the good reasoning to call in a metal detector to assist.

Tim was taking care of some yard work and playing with his dog when he felt his wedding ring fly off in the backyard. He and his wife did a thorough search and even raked the area, but could not find it. He contacted me on Sunday and I was able to head right over. After hearing the details, I searched the most likely area and was able to recover the ring. I am very thankful to be able to help another young couple.

Aaron was enjoying some fall fun with his family at the beautiful Endless View Farms when his ring fell off in an enormous pit full of corn that was set up for everyone to play in. They searched for hours, but had no luck. After Aaron left, the staff told me that another person with a metal detector searched the corn, but also could not find it. When he got home Aaron contacted me and I was able to get to the farm the next day. I ended up getting there a little ahead of time so I headed to the pit. After a few minutes I got a faint signal. I moved away about a foot of corn and it got stronger. About 2 feet down, there it was. Soon after, Aaron arrived and I was able to meet him with good news and put the ring back in his hands where it belongs.

Lost Wedding Ring – FOUND! near State College, PA by Metal Detector Specialist Brian Carpenter – Call 814-244-2300 ASAP for help with your lost item!

Lost your ring, other valuable jewelry, cellphone, keys, or other metal object…call or text Brian Carpenter at (814)244-2300 as soon as possible. I am a ring recovery/metal detecting specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…

I was contacted by Matt to see if I could help him locate his lost tungsten and gold wedding band. Matt said he had lost it in his yard cleaning up leaves. This is a common occurrence this time of year. I told Matt I would come out and we agreed on a day and time. Later I would find out that Matt lived three and a half hours away from the property to be search. It added a little bit of pressure as this was a significant time investment on his part.

I met Matt at the property and got the scoop on what happened. Matt was full of good news, the ring was mostly black, it could have been in a variety of places from in the yard to the wooded areas behind his house, he had cut the grass at some point and there was a large area in the woods where he had actually spread the leaves out by hand rather than dump them and leave them in big piles. He was really upset by the loss as he had only been married a short time before this happened. Matt also informed me he had bought a metal detector and invested significant time in trying to locate the ring using the detector. Unlike many people I have to give Matt credit, he invested in an Garrett AT Pro, the same detector I usually use. He had also spent some time doing research and had some knowledge in how to use it.

I looked around and taking all of the information into account was beginning to believe I was in for a VERY LONG day. I asked Matt where he thought it might be and he put me onto a few places he had dumped stuff in the woods behind the house. I started to look getting some directions from Matt – you are up too far, over this way some, yeah that is where I was. Then Matt went down the hill to look on his own. After about 10-15 minutes I was working my way down the path to search another patch of woods and I got a sweet sound. I did not see anything though. I got out my pin pointer and rooted around the side of a tree branch that was across the path. BAM! I moved some of the leave pieces and dust out of the way and there was the ring tight up against the branch. I felt a huge sense of relief. Matt had cleared a portion of this area from the leaves but the dust and pieces that he left behind were just enough to keep it hidden from sight.

I called Matt up from where he was searching. Without telling him that I found his ring I placed it on the ground and told him when you find your ring this is what it will sounds like. Matt started to run his detector over the spot…then it hit him…it was HIS ring. He picked it up and was overjoyed and in disbelief that I found it both where I did and so quickly. I was amazed as well, a little devine intervention if you ask me, St. Anthony strikes again.

It was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client and recover his lost ring.

Emily was traveling from the west coast to visit her family, enjoying some backyard sports, games, and family fun when she discovered one of her rings from her wedding set was missing. They searched and even tried a little metal detecting, but unfortunately couldn’t find it. Emily contacted me the next morning and I was able to get there within a few hours. Emily did a great job working through and eliminating the most probable sites to really narrow the search to a smaller area of the yard. After my initial scan of the area there were several targets, but none on the surface, and none that sounded like a gold ring. We talked through the possibilities again, and she mentioned that they had spent some time sitting on the cement patio. I had already walked near that area, but was getting interference from the concrete. On the second more detailed search around the patio I was able to listen through the noise and catch a steady signal from the ring just a few inches off the cement into the grass. It was so nice meeting Emily and her family. They are really great people and I was so glad I could help find this lost ring.

I was contacted by Jill who stated her mother thought she had lost her wedding ring while weeding. Her mother was throwing the weeds over an embankment behind her residence and thought her ring flew off. When I initially spoke with Jill the ring had been lost for about three weeks. I was unable to make it out the same day she called me to search but assured her I would make arrangements to look.

A few days later it worked out that I was able to search for the ring. I drove out the residence and met Jill’s mother, Peggy and her dog Missy. Peggy explained to me that her husband had passed away and how important the ring was to her. She did not see the ring fly off her finger but she was pretty certain it was over the embankment. They had searched with a metal detector that they bought and also enlisted the help of a neighbor without any luck.

I looked over the embankment and it was overgrown with weeds and tall grass. I took a few steps and realized that all the vegetation was hiding just how steep the bank was. So I started my grid down and back up the hillside taking note of how far I was down. I was thinking that maybe I had not went down over the hill far enough so I was prepared to have to go further down. I was there working my way though the forest of vegetation when all of a sudden I heard that sweet sound of gold. I had seen a picture of the ring and it was very big so the hit I got was loud and steady. I parted the weeds and looked down and there was the ring….sweet success!!

I climbed back to the top of the hillside and Peggy came out to meet me. When I showed her the ring she was stunned and began to shed tears of joy. It was readily apparent how important the ring was to her. She thanked me numerous times. Before I had started to search she had told me how her dog Missy could do all kinds of tricks. I told Peggy that if I found the ring she could have Missy do a few tricks; so Missy got to perform and was very impressive.

Now that the pressure was off as the ring was found there were a few minutes to chat. It is very interesting to hear the stories of rings that are found and all the other important details that the clients like to share. As always it was great to meet another extremely kind and generous client and reunite her with her treasured keepsake!

Matt was playing with his kids last evening at the elementary school when his ring fell off in the thick grass. This ring is special to his family because they all played a part in its design. Unfortunately they were not able to find it, so Matt marked the area and contacted me. I was able to meet him at the school the following morning. He did a great job narrowing the search area, so it didn’t take long before I found it. It was great to meet Matt and I was really glad I could help recover his ring.

Lost Men’s Wedding Band found in the Northland!

  • from Saint Joseph (Missouri, United States)
Contact:

Jacob called me last Saturday about his wedding band he lost at Park North of the River in Kansas City, MO. He had taken his daughter to the park to play at the playground.
He had previously put his ring in his pocket and as he walked up the hill to the playground he took his key fob out to make sure his car was locked and apparently the ring came out as well. He happened to check his pocket while his daughter was playing and called me shortly after searching for it for a while. I met him at the park and followed the path that he said he took up the hill and located it about 30 feet from the gate. I love to see the smiles after I find a lost item, it not only makes them happy, but me as well.

Lost Platinum Wedding Band – Found by metal detecting specialist Brian Carpenter in Wexford near Pittsburgh

I received a text from Barry inquiring about my services. I asked him to give me a call and he told me he was working on a chicken coop when he took off his wedding band at subsequently lost it. As luck would have it I was able to head out that later that morning hopefully before it started baking outside as we have been having a brutal heatwave.

I pulled in and met Barry who showed me what I had to work with. On the drive down, I was thinking about all the interference I was going to have from the chicken wire and how to try and work around it. My hunch was right, there was a lot of wire in and around the ground and as luck would have it the sound it emitted was similar to that of platinum.

I began to work with a small coil and very low sensitivity in and around the coop with no luck. Barry started to help by clearing some of the weeds and vegetation to allow us to see better as my machine was going crazy from the wire. After a fairly thorough search and while Barry was working around the coop I started to work the yard around the coop and to the garage area. Nothing…there was only one other area that I needed to check and that was a small section of the front yard where he had been petting his dog. I explained to Barry that I would check all of those areas and then get out my Minelab Manticore with the 2D screen. I was hoping that maybe in the midst of all the wire I might get a dot on the screen. Well that was not needed – as I went out to the front yard and began my search I almost immediately got a pretty good sound and using my pin-pointer parted the grass and clover revealing lost wedding band.

Barry was excited and also surprised that I found it in the front yard. He was sure if I was going to find his ring that it would be in the back around the coop. Barry took off inside to tell his wife the good news. He soon emerged and we chatted for a while which is one of the most enjoyable parts of a successful search. As always it was a pleasure to meet another kind and generous client and recover his special ring.
