I recived a call from Sandra on December 27 requesting my service to locate her newly purchased wedding band which had been lost on the 23 of December while walking to a store. She took a short cut down a sharp enbankment, fell half way down the hill, and felt the ring slip off her finger and into the snow.

Sandra called her husband Kevin to come and help her find the ring.  They both searched  for a couple of hours and having no luck they went back the next day.   Sandra than purchased a metal detector that just fustrated her even more because she did not understand how it worked. Sandra and Kevin went back a couple more times to search and again no luck.

Sandra called her daughter in Calgary and told her what happend.  She suggested to call the Ringfinders as there was someone in Edmonton that could possible help.  That is how Sandra got in touch with me.

After spending over three hours and not finding the ring I told Sandra she must have lost the ring somewhere else. Sandra felt that the ring had to be on the hill.  As a precaution I suggested that she should make a police report in the chance that someone would pick it up and turn it in to the RCMP.

While driving back from Sherwood Park this morning I started to think of the last few searches I had done.  I realized that prior to leaving my house this morning I had changed one of the coils on my detectors to search for a set of keys.   I decided to return and search for the Barrel Ring on the hill.  With in 2 minutes I found Sandra’s Ring only 18 inches from where she had  slipped!

Right away I called Sandra and told her the good news.   I had found her ring and I would immediately drop if off.

Thank you Sandra and Kevin for entrusting me to find your Ring.

Engagement Ring Lost In Back Yard Mayliewan Neighbourhood, Edmonton

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

Bober called me this afternoon requesting my service to find his wife’s white gold engagement ring in his back yard. Bober told me she was standing on their back yard deck throwing treats to her dogs and her ring flew off her finger.

I met Bober and he showed me where his wife thought the ring landed. I quickly searched the area but no ring was found so then I went to the opposite side of the yard and bang, I heard the tone I was looking for!

Bober could not believe the area where I found her ring. I told him that a ring never lands where you think.

Thank you Bober for entrusting me to locate your wife’s engagement ring.

Gold Necklace recovered in Huntington Beach

Call Surf City Ring Finder 714-944-0555

Rich called me and explained that he had his wife’s necklace on his lap when they decided to pack up from the beach and go home. It wasn’t until they got home when he realized the necklace was missing.

I met him at the beach and he showed me the area they were sitting. On my second pass with my metal detector I received a good tone and the rest is history, the gold necklace came up with a gentle nudge from my foot.

Lost Engagement Ring in Farmers Field, Rolly View, Alberta Canada

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

     

 

 

I received a call from Krystal regarding her white 14k gold engagement ring which she had lost out in Rolly View, in the county of Leduc.  After asking Krystal my usual questions I agreed to meet her.

Upon arriving at the location Krystal showed me exactly where she and her boy friend stood when he proposed to her and gave her the ring. With the excitement of accepting his proposal Krystal shook her hand and the ring flew off her finger into the snow! They searched the immediate area with no luck so decided to go back to the city and purchase a metal detector.  They headed back to continue the search but Krystal told me the metal detector made so many sounds that they did not understand and gave up the search and headed home.  While doing a Google search on “how to find a lost ring” she found me on the Ringfinders Blog Page. Within five minute Krystal had her ring back on her finger and was very grateful to have called me.

Thank you Krystal for getting in touch with me. I am so glad to have been able to find your ring.

Property Markers Missing For Close to 50 Years

  • from Old Orchard Beach (Maine, United States)
Contact:

I was recently contacted by Nathaniel about some missing property markers on his property, in Hollis, Maine, about 25 miles west of Portland, Maine. Nathaniel had found my RingFinders Metal Detecting Service by doing a Google search for “How to find Missing Property Markers, With A Metal Detector”.  My name was right near the top of the list. Nathaniel asked if I could help locate any of the markers with my metal detector, if the markers were still there at all.  He told me that the home had been built in the early 1970’s and he had purchased the property 8 years ago. Nathaniel was told there were property markers at the time the home was built, according to records he had obtained. He was also told by the previous owner that at least one marker had been removed many years ago. The property is a rural area and his 2+ acres were a combination of woods, field, marshy areas and generally overgrown underbrush.  I agreed to help and arranged to meet him the next morning.
Nathaniel met me bright and early and showed me where he thought one of the property markers should be. I told Nathaniel  that we would dig and investigate every target. As I detected the area, I was finding absolutely nothing. No trash, nails or any other metal was being found. Finally after approximately 30 minutes, I had an iron target. Unfortunately, it turned out to be an old nail.  As I started detecting again, a property marker was visibly seen, approximately 50-60 feet further west than Nathaniel had me detecting in. The marker was found in an overgrown area of new and dead grass.

With one marker found, we proceeded into a swampy area approximately 400 feet into the woods. The area had many downed trees and was very very wet and mucky. I detected and visually looked for approximately 2 1/2 more hours with no luck on the remaining 2 markers. Nathaniel also did a very through visual search while I was detecting the areas. Had the markers been removed years ago by the owner, hunters, kids playing in the woods? Had the markers fallen victim to one of the many fallen trees and is now under one of those large trees? We may never know but Nathaniel now has one of his property markers to start with his surveying of the property.
So, not all call outs are for finding a ring or necklace with a metal detector. Next time you are contacted, you may just be heading into a wooded, swampy area looking for property markers.

Lost Gold Ring in Salt Lake City, Utah- Found

Contact:

This was actually my first call of 2023 after a large snow storm rolled through Utah. Jefferey and his girlfriend were having a snowball fight when he noticed his large gold ring came off his finger. I met them at the scene of the battle and quickly searched the area which was littered with trash. After about two hours, I was unsuccessful of locating the ring. Since it was right next to a busy road and plenty of interference, I knew I need to come back with a smaller coil.

The next week, the snow had melted and I was in route back to my house with about 15 minutes to kill so I stopped by the area. I put on my smaller coil and right next to the powerline cable was the ring. There was a few pieces of trash around it but it was literally about a foot from the sidewalk and anyone could have came by and grabbed it. The reason why I haven’t posted this recovery earlier is that I am still trying to get in touch with Jefferey as his phone number has been disconnected. I am hoping he will reach out to me following the post.

Lost Gold Wedding Ring – FOUND after being lost for 3 YEARS! Campbell, Ohio

  • from Indiana (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

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 specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. I received a text from David about his wedding ring that he had lost three years ago. David had been digging some rocks out of a wooded area behind his house and thought he had lost it there. He had rented a metal detector and said that he looks every winter/spring before things start growing, but to no avail. The trip would be about two hours one way and I was hoping that the ring finder who lived closer would be interested but told David that if the other person didn’t come out I would.

So I arrived at David’s and he showed me the search area. Pretty standard, front yard, back yard, garden, and just to throw in a degree of difficulty a wooded area that was pretty swampy. David thought for sure it was in the wooded area where he was digging the rocks. I checked the front yard…nothing…wooded area…nothing…garden….nothing…backyard….nothing. So I has checking a small strip next to the house. There was a lot of feedback and interference in just this little patch…I don’t know why, but I dropped my sensitivity to almost zero to get rid of the noise. Then I started walking backward and got a solid hit. From about an inch or two under the ground I found his wedding ring.

I called David and he came out and I gave him his ring back. He had the biggest smile and was very happy, not actually believing I found it. Then David told me that about 5 minutes before I called him he had just got done saying some prayers to St. Anthony. I usually do the same before I start any search knowing I can always use all the help I can get, so it might be safe to say I had a little divine intervention! I am glad David got his ring back and as always it is great to meet nice people and return what was lost.
