Mom’s Ring Recovered!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

I was contacted by a woman who had initially lost two rings, but had found one before calling me. While we were speaking about the when and where, she told me the backstory. Both her parents had passed and she had a ring from each. She decided to wear the two rings around her neck, but had the rings together on a hoop earring, which was in turn, looped onto a gold chain. She was spreading straw onto newly seeded grass in her back yard, and in rearranging the straw with a rake, she saw her father’s ring on the ground, which is when she realized that the hoop earring had opened and dropped the rings. As you might imagine, the hoop wasn’t strong enough to hold the rings securely and it had opened up. Finding the first ring was a good indicator about the location of the second, but she had searched extensively and hadn’t been able to locate it. After having her show me the areas where she’d been working, I started the search. After finding the usual yard trash (small pieces of aluminum, iron nails, screws, and a few pennies), I was able to locate her ring. In her own search, she had unknowingly stepped on it and pushed it down into the mud. Although it wasn’t visible, my detector wasn’t bothered by the mud and I was able to recover the ring. Given how important the rings were to her, it was great to see the joy in her eyes when the missing ring was recovered and returned!

Diamond Engagement Ring lost in the sand, Lavallette NJ (OB3) recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

Jersey shore ring finder

I was spending the holiday weekend with my family at Island Beach State Park when I received a frantic call from Megan. She was incredibly upset, having just lost her rings in the sand moments before. While she had managed to recover two of them, her cherished engagement ring was nowhere to be found. I calmed her down, advising her to stop digging and simply wait, assuring her I would be there in a few hours. Since Megan and her family were staying for the day and had secured the area with their beach gear, there wasn’t an urgent rush. Had the situation been different, I would have dropped everything and headed there immediately.

When I arrived, Megan pointed out the area where the ring had gone missing, and I wasted no time getting to work. Initially, I had to clear a few loud signals that were overpowering the delicate tone of her ring. Once those were taken care of, my metal detector honed in on the ring’s unique signal. Within seconds, her engagement ring was safely in my scoop. The relief on her face made the search all the more rewarding!

I recieved a call from Owen last night requesting my service to locate his lost wedding ring in the back yard of his house. After asking Owen a few questions I agreed to help him find his ring the next day.

I meet up with Owen and his wife Hershey and they showed me the area where Owen had been chopping fire wood.  I could see where they had raked the snow off the ground,  They had been searching on their hands and knees looking for the ring until it got to dark when Hershey turned to the internet and searched for a metal detector. Up came TheRingfinders web page so she searched the Directory and found Me! The rest is history.

Thank you Owen and Hershey for entrusting me to find your wedding ring.

Lost Gold Wedding Band in the Flower Bed-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by Addison and she said her Grandfather had lost his wedding band in the yard while pulling weeds. It was a two and a half hour trip to Nashville from here, but well worth the trip. Peter said he was pulling weeds in the front flower bed for most of the afternoon and it was after dark, around ten oclock before he noticed his white gold band was gone. He went back out and looked for it but didn’t see it.  After pulling the weeds and putting them in a wheelbarrow he rolled it to the back end of the lot to dump it out, so I had several places to search. I started in the lawn area bordering the bed and frankly, that is where I expected to find it. Not finding it there I went into the bed and did find numerous peices of scrap aluminum and metal that was close to the surface.  About 3/4 of the way through the bed my Manticore locked onto a solid 15 in all directions and it was also close to the surface. The soil was soft so I just rubbed the surface area of the ground from over the signal and I saw the glint of white gold shining at me. That’s what I saw in the attached photo with my finger pointing at it. It was totally buried so he would not have seen it. The search time was around 30-40 minutes.

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

Lost your ring or any sentimental item contact a metal detecting specialist ASAP 24/7 Chris Turner-778-838-3463 

Yes a metal detector can find your lost gold ring in your yard, beach, park…That being said if you’ve never used one before you most likely won’t find your ring. Save you time and money and hire a metal detecting specialist with years of experience.

I have found over 500 lost items and I can’t count how many times someone had rented or bought a metal detector in hopes of finding their lost item. Experience pays off and that’s what we have on this directory, members like myself with many years of Metal Detecting experience.

I got a phone call from a young lady who said her husband had lost his ring somewhere in a garden area on the side of the road close to their house. After discussing the search, she mentioned his ring fit very well and they were confused on how it could’ve come off when they were looking for their Lost Keys. They went out and bought a metal detector and searched for hours, but could not find the ring. I showed up,  listen to the story and started my search. Within a couple minutes I found his lost gold wedding band. I love my job!  I might make it look easy but remember I have 53 years of metal detecting experience…It helps!

Lost Gold Watch Bezel-Found

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by a guy that does professional yard services and he had lost the bezel from his watch in a client’s yard while trimming the shrubs. The bezel was custom made gold with diamonds. He was working the day of the search and not able to be there with me. He had given me the address of his customer and they knew I was coming. This search to me nearly two hours of searching because the detector coil would not fit down in the shrubbery so I had to search a lot of it visually. I eventually found the bezel way up under a low growing Japanese maple tree. It was lying face down and very difficult to see in the mulch, but my detector saw it clearly.

Lost Ring in Backyard-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)

I was contacted by Jessica to find her husband’s ring he had lost in the backyard while throwing balls for his dog. Along the way they had borowwed a metal detector to look for it themselves, but they didn’t know how to use it, so they hid her ring in the grass to test it out and see what it sounded like, and that’s where it got more complicated. The detector and their ears were overloaded with all the metal in the ground they didn’t know was there. Then they couldn’t find her ring either. That’s when she contacted me.  They had marked out a spot where she thought her ring would be, and it was a fairly small area, maybe six feet by four feet. I covered that area quickly and no ring, so I expanded the search area to beyond where she had marked out.  I had made one pass, turned around to parallel my path and I was facing the sun. After two steps I caught a relection in the grass of something silver colored before my coil passed over it. It was her ring. The entire search for her ring was less than ten minutes. While I was talking with her and taking a couple of photos the sun was directly in my eyes so I shifted position a little.  When she was looking at me I noticed she had fixed her attention to somewhere over my right shoulder. She said hold on a minute, and took off to the side of the yard and came back with his ring. If my memory serves me correctly it was dark colored, titanium maybe.  From the position we were standing she happened to see it laying on the ground in a clear area that was free of grass. So both rings were recovered in around fifteen minutes.

Gold Wedding Band Lost, Recovered and Returned in Broomall, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Received an afternoon call from Mark seeking assistance in finding his beautiful and ornate gold wedding band. In speaking with him on the phone he shared that he felt his ring fly off his finger while unfurling a hose in his front yard a month earlier. Apparently he and his family had spent countless hours searching for the ring and even purchased a metal detector in hopes of finding it. It finally dawned on them that they might need to hire a professional…so they consulted the Ring Finder directory. I met Mark the following day at his home in Broomall, PA…he walked me to his front yard and showed me the area where he was convinced the ring was lost. Despite them searching for hours and using a cheap metal detector over the course of a month…I had no doubt that i would find the ring if it was there. Let me just say that a gold ring on the surface has a very unique and powerful signal on a detector…any experienced detectorist would recognize it immediately…so i didn’t pay much attention to all the other signals I was getting on my machine…I was hyper focused on a surface gold ring signal. Well…8 minutes into the search I finally heard the signal I was focused on….sure enough I reached down into the high grass with my pinpointer and there it was!!! When I showed Mark where I found it he was dumbfounded…he scoured that exact area with his eyes and the metal detector. I was so happy to be able to reunite Mark with his lost wedding band….he told me that it’s inscribed with his wedding date and initials and it has been with him for 45 years.

Gold Wedding Band Lost, Found and Returned in Ambler, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Mike contacted me after losing his gold wedding band in his backyard in Ambler, PA. He was about to start making meatballs for dinner so he took his ring off and put it in his pocket. He finished the meatballs and went into backyard to kick around a soccer ball with his son. He noticed his band was no longer in his pocket after re-entering his house. Total time between putting his ring in his pocket and noticing it missing was less then an hour! Clearly must have fallen out while kicking the soccer ball in backyard…he spent hours looking and raking the backyard but no luck. He found me in the Ring Finders directory…and I met him 2 days later. He took me into his backyard and showed me where he was playing soccer with his son. Like I always do I started grid searching very methodically…starting at one end and working toward the other. 10 minutes later, I was in the exact middle of the “soccer field” when I finally got the signal I was looking for…the grass was a little high and there were quiet a few leaves but I still immediately saw his white gold wedding band gleaming up at me! I was very happy to be able to return Mike’s ring to him!
