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.

Washington,Missouri Soccer Field

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

WASHINGTON,MO

 

While watching my oldest daughter at soccer practice, my two year old ran towards her on the field; to avoid her being trampled by enthusiastic players, I picked her up. I instantly notice my rose gold wedding band slip off my finger. Within minutes, the whole team, the coach, and a group of helpful parents search the area. After an hour of searching, we gave up. The next morning, I purchased my own metal detector and searched the area for hours with no luck. I found Jeremy on the ring finder website, and he was confident he could find it. After searching the soccer field for a while, he was able to find my ring!9

Lost a ring?

215-850-0188

Nothing puts a damper on a fun weekend like losing something valuable—especially something that can’t be replaced.

John had been camping with family and friends on a quiet farm in Franklinville, NJ. It was the kind of weekend you remember—good food, great people, and time away from the noise. But at some point during the night, while playing around, John’s gold wedding band flew from his finger and disappeared into the grass.

He searched the area with help from his friends, but no luck. Later that night, around 4 a.m., I got a text about the lost ring. We spoke early the next morning, and I agreed to meet him at the site.

Using my metal detector, I mapped out a grid to begin the search. At first, nothing. Just scrap metal and typical ground junk. After about 25 minutes of expanding the grid and scanning deeper into the surrounding area—finally, the signal I was hoping for.

I dug carefully, and out came a beautiful gold ring.

John was thrilled—and deeply emotional. This ring wasn’t just a wedding band. It had once belonged to his father, who had recently passed. Getting it back meant the world to him.

Helping someone recover a part of their history and heart—that’s why I love doing this.

How to find a lost ring in yard debris, Princeton NJ, recovered by Edward Trapper, NJ Ring Finder

  • from Lavallette (New Jersey, United States)

I noticed a post on one of the lost jewelry pages about a missing wedding ring, lost somewhere in the backyard within a pile of yard debris. Someone had tagged me on the post, and later, Cheryl gave me a call. She explained that her husband, John, had been doing yard work, moving logs, branches, and leaves  when he realized later that day his wedding ring was missing.

John was 99% sure the ring was in the yard and had a pretty good idea of where it might be. He believed he had felt it pull off his hand when he threw some debris. I asked Cheryl to send me a short video to make sure Id be able to swing my metal detector in the dense thicket where the ring might have landed. From the video, everything looked manageable, so we arranged to meet the following morning.

When I arrived, John and Cheryl came outside to greet me. I grabbed my equipment, and we walked out to the backyard. I had John recount exactly what happened a few times to make sure I had all the details. His story on the phone matched what he told me in the backyard, which gave me confidence that the ring was out there.

I got to work right away. After quickly scanning some larger areas and checking along the back fence, I only picked up a few signals, none consistent with a platinum ring. But then, I spotted a large pile of leaves and small sticks about three feet from the back fence. It looked promising, especially since John had mentioned pulling debris with his bare hands in that spot.

I scanned over the pile and picked up a strong, steady signal. It could have been the ring, though there was a chance it was just a pull tab. I cleared an area where the signal was strongest, digging down about two feet. Sure enough, at the very bottom of the pile, I found John’s ring.

Meanwhile, John and Cheryl were chatting by the pool about yard work. I cleaned the ring off a bit, stood up, and held it high to show them. Cheryls eyes widened, and she immediately said, I can’t believe you found it already! Where was it?

They both hurried over, and I showed them the cleared area in the middle of the leaf pile. They were absolutely stunned at how quickly I had found the ring.

I explained that preparation and listening carefully to the customer are key to a successful search. Narrowing down the possible locations allows me to focus on the most likely spots first, which saves a lot of time and effort.

Finding lost items isn’t just about luck it’s about methodical searching and trusting the process.

Hearing Aids Lost in Yard

  • from Dallas (Texas, United States)
Contact:

We got a call from a gentleman who said his wife had placed her hearing aids on top of her phone and walked out the front door to open the gate.  Somewhere along the way across the yard the Hearing Aids fell into the deep St Augustine grass.  She and her husband searched and searched even buying a magnetic bar on wheels to try and find the Hearing Aids.  After 3 days of searching and panic began to set in.  These were new Hearing Aids and not insured.

   The husband began to search the internet and found “The Ring Finders” and called us.  Luckily we were on our way back into the Dallas area and were able to reroute to the Gaston Street area downtown.   The hearing aids were so small out Garrett ATPRO’S bearly picked up a signal.  I had to get on hand and knees and use our Pinpointers to find them.  It took a while but we had success, the Hearing Aids had fallen just inside the flower beds and they were brown in color so very hard to see.

Another happy customer for the “Dallas Ring Finders”.
