Lost Gold Woman’s Name Ring in Granville, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

I received a call regarding a lost gold ring that had gone missing somewhere in the backyard. While completing several tasks throughout her day, the client realized the ring had slipped out of her pocket. After searching the area with no success, she reached out for assistance. I was able to schedule a service visit and begin searching the yard — and soon, the ring was found. She was very happy to have it safely returned to her.

LOST GOLD WEDDING RING RECOVERED, TICONDEROGA, NY

  • from Saratoga Springs (New York, United States)
Contact:

Little did I know that day I would be driving the almost 2 hours up to Ticonderoga, NY to find a wedding ring which was almost given up on.

Joe and Rebecca and four other family members were staying at a B n’B on a lake in Ticonderoga.  Joe told me he was “pretty sure” he lost the ring while playing football the day before. All six family members had searched every square inch of the yard all day and even in the night. They even bought a metal detector and tried to no avail. They had little hope left.  While I cannot guarantee that I will find a ring, I can at times, depending on the situation, feel fairly confident. This was one of those times. Still, I felt, even after I arrived, that they did not have much hope. I was the last resort. Better to try and know you have done everything you could than to regret it for years to come. That’s what I told them.  They would be leaving the B n’B the next day.

I arrived and got down to work. My heart sank when I heard so many signals in the gold range. “This is not going to be so easy, I thought to myself.”  And it wasn’t. I would have to go real slow and quickly calculate every signal and make a quick decision in my head. Finally after what seemed like forever I had the signal I was looking for. Could this be it? I parted the grass and down in the roots was the glimmer of gold. I was thrilled. Containing my excitement, I called Rebecca and Joe over. I didn’t touch the ring. I wanted them to have the joy of seeing it in situ and picking it off the ground. I pointed to the spot and said, “what do you see?”  “Nothing.” they replied.  I pointed even closer. Still they saw nothing. I practically put my finger right on the ring the third time and finally they saw it, almost made invisible by the golden color of the grass roots. Rebecca started crying she was so shocked and happy.  The family gathered round to celebrate. It was like winning the Super Bowl when all the chips were down. Case closed. Ring found. Happy family. Happy Mark. Call Mark’s Detecting 518-677-0895.

GOLD WEDDING RING FOUND IN HUDSON RIVER, QUEENSBURY, NY

  • from Saratoga Springs (New York, United States)
Contact:

Matt called me and told me the story of how he lost his gold wedding band in the Hudson river. In short, he was standing on the end of the dock and went to catch a football and he felt his ring slide right off his finger. The ring fell into the river about 7 feet deep.  He knew exactly where it fell, but after searching  for a couple of hours with goggles he was unable to locate it.  The bottom of the river was full of deep muck so it was impossible to see the ring or much of anything else. That’s when he called me.

I drove the hour to Queensbury the next day as it was too late to go that same day. I took a friend with me who happened to be visiting which was a good thing because this was going to be one of the most difficult searches. We are both lifeguards and good swimmers but the difficulties seemed endless. Visibility was poor, the ring was in the muck, the current was strong and staying down 6 feet in a mostly vertical position was near impossible. We didn’t have any scuba gear, only my mask. It would have been near impossible to use the big detector down there so I only used the hand probe. I located the ring with in the first five minutes, but the retrieval under such conditions was extremely difficult. Marking the spot, relocating the signal, fighting the current, drifting under the dock and having no reference of where your body was in the darkness once you were down there and  becoming hypothermic were all obstacle that we had to overcome one way or another.  You would have to have been there to fully understand the situation. Long story short, two hours after locating the first signal we finally were able to scoop out the ring in the scooper. The relief and joy we felt were priceless. I had the great pleasure of calling Matt that evening and telling him the good news. He was elated. Since he lived in another state I shipped him the ring the very next day.  I told him, “no more football on the dock!”

Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Philadelphia, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mike found me in The Ring Finder directory and shot me a text message. Earlier in the day he was in the basement of a house on a job site in Philadelphia when he lost his wedding band. He was pretty sure he lost it went he took a fall while cleaning up and inspecting the basement of the 1800s old house. Most times I would say no to indoor jobs…metal detectors usually don’t do well inside houses. But Mike said it was mostly dirt down there where he was working…so I figured I would give it a shot. I brought my trusty Minelab Equinox 800 with a 6 inch coil for the job…I also brought a similar tungsten ring to the one that was lost. When i got there the first thing I did was calibrate my detector to pick up just the tungsten ring…then I adjusted the sensitivity and frequency so it was stable in the dirt basement. My machine had no problem picking up the ring I brought with me while in the basement. I knew if I went over it on the floor of the basement i was not going to miss it! 10 minutes into the search I got the signal I was hoping for…it was coming from a dirt pile on one side…with my ponpointer I located the signal within the pile…grabbed a fistful dirt…opened my palm…and there it was!!! Ring recovered and returned! Mike was surprised and extremely happy!

 

Lost Heirloom Gold Ring in Post Falls Idaho. FOUND!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There comes a time in every man’s life when the ones he loves grow old and pass away.  For Glenn, his grandfather was that person and he had passed away a few years ago. As Glenns Aunt was going through Glenn’s grandpa’s things, she came across his wedding ring and knew that Glenn would cherish it and wear it daily. On Monday Glenn had just received this ring as a gift from his aunt and was wearing it proudly as he worked with his father on their cattle ranch. Helping his dad with chores on Monday, took Glenn all around the pasture and by the hay bales. There were gates to open, and troughs to fill. The netting on the hay bale had to be wrapped up and the bales had to be loaded onto the tractor. As the tasks got completed, Glenn ducked behind a stack of pallets to get out of the frigid north wind. He could feel the blood slowing down in his ice-cold fingers but smiled a little as he looked at his grandpa’s ring. As Glenn made his way out from behind the pallets the last of the hay bales were loaded and dropped off. Glenn was slowly losing feeling in his hands as he felt another feeling, that new ring he was wearing was gone. The panic took over the cold feeling, and he walked right back to the last place he was standing. There at the gate he recalled he had seen the ring. The search began and ended as the nighttime crept in with a frigid black blanket. The next day Glenns dad took to the internet to find a metal detector for Glenn. After scrolling down the pages looking at all the different web sites that popped up, he saw my face and profile on the internet. While at work, I got a call from Glenn, we made small talk about his circumstance and made plans for me to come out that afternoon. The family dogs greeted me as I got out of my car. The smell of hay and bovine wafted my way as I got my gear out of the back of my car. As all of my searches begin, I went over the events that Glenn thought lead to him losing his ring. As we walked around the outside of the pasture, I knew his ring wasn’t going to be found, the ground I was searching over was paved with three-inch rock. A large gold ring would sit proudly on top of all that stone. Nevertheless, I did my due diligence to search the rock covered area. The odd pieces of metal showed up under my coil now and again. Glenns dad was quick to point out the places I hadn’t searched, which led us to walking into the pasture. There was a hill that Glenns dad had placed a bale of hay, in fact it was the first bale of hay Glenn helped his dad uncover. As the three black angus cows moved away from the half-eaten bale, I gently swung my detector around. Moving from the top of the pile down I got a solid signal on the edge of the bale. The number 16 showed up on my screen, and I asked the question “What is that?”, to which Glenn’s dad said, “there better not be any metal up here”. However, this was a bit of metal, and as I pinpointed and pulled back the hay, a large gold ring popped out of the pile. The yeehaw and pats on the backs accompanied the smile and laugher as the two happy cowboys stood on top of the huge pile of manure.

Lost Cartier Ring Returned in Olathe, KS

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

In a fit of pique, Jesse launched Sam’s matching Cartier love band across the drive, across the street and onto a neighbor’s property.  After cooler heads prevailed, she set upon a search for the ring  that included enlisting the neighbors, ushing flashlights at night, and even buying her own detector.  When none of these resulted in the return of her ring, she contacted TheRingFinders and that lead her to me.  We carefully reconstructed the events and within 15 minutes, the gold Cartier was back with it’s rightful owner!  Another happy ending and a very satisfied customer!

Wedding Ring Lost in Front Yard-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

James contacted me and told me that his wife had lost her ring in the front yard. It was yellow gold with a solitaire. He said it had been lost for around two months and they had rented a metal detector with no luck. When I got there I asked all of the usual questions that I always do. She said they had been arguing and she threw the ring across the front yard, and where she had been standing. This is always a great help, because it gives me a better idea where to look. I started my grid search in the likely area, and had made two passes across the yard. About one forth of the way back across the yard on the third pass, I got a solid 19 on my Manticore. It was the ring, but after two months it was already completely covered and not visible. The actual search time was less that fifteen minutes.

 

 

 

 

LOST 18k HEIRLOOM RING in WINSTON SALEM, NC……..FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

Received a text from the young man yesterday about losing his heirloom gold ring that was his late grandfathers.

He had taken it off, put it in his pocket and was playing basketball. He later took the rings out of his pocet and put them on the porch, but didn’t realize he had lost one until later.

He searched for this ring for days and even used a metal detector. He wanted to keep trying into the night before he had me drive out to him. I walked him through some settings and gave him a VDI range to search for.

Earlier today, I received a text that he wanted me to try, so I loaded up and headed his way.

After arriving, 10 minutes later I found his ring, under the goal and already pushed into the dirt from being stepped on.
