Anniversary Gold Ring Dropped Inside a Vehicle! Charlton Heights Sherwood Park.

  • from Edmonton (Alberta, Canada)
Contact:

Adele called me asking if I was able to find her anniversary ring lost between her seats in her vehicle she told me she just left her nail salon and the nail care technician told her that her ring was very loose on her finger and she said to Adele to get her ring resized  before she lost it, While Adele was driving home she stopped at a red light, she took off her ring to switch the ring over to her other finger and thats when the ring fell between her seat and disappeared after I asked Adele my usual questions I agreed to help locate her ring. The next day Adele was going on Vacation for a week so the ring stayed in her Vehicle while she was gone, in the back of her mind she kept thinking of her ring, when she arrived back home  she did a Google search how to find a lost ring in a car and found the Ringfinders webpage and contacted me. While driving to Sherwood Park I said to myself this will be an easy search and it should not take long to locate her ring, I meet Adele at her home she took me into the garage and she told me that’s her car and the ring was in it somewhere because she heard a ring Ping and ring disappeared, Adele looked for the ring also her husband spent a couple of hours removing the mats and checking everywhere with no luck. I started to check the situation out and found out the only place the ring could be was the ring had made its way through the opening in the carpet and must have ended on the floor on her vehicle and that the ping she heard. I got my bore scope camera out and carefully inserted between the carpet and the vent, check around but could not see any sign of the ring so the next thing I removed the four bolts that held the seat to the frame of the car but could not disconnect the seat completely due to the Airbags where attached and if had disconnected the seat the Air bags could deploy. I then carefully cut a slit in the carpet where the vents came through the carpet to gain more access to the vehicle frame then through the bore scope I could see her ring then I was able to reach her ring and handed her ring back to Adele. Boy was I wrong when I said to myself this was going to be an easy search in total it took me over three hours to find the ring and put her vehicle back together again. Adele and her husband were overjoyed to have the ring back on her finger once again. Thank you Adele and Nick it was a pleasure meeting you both and having a successful search.

IPhone lost in Snow in Philadelphia, PA….Found and Returned!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

After the largest snow storm of the year dumped 6 inches of snow in Philadelphia this week…Adeep ventured out to have some fun in the deep snow drifts around his University City apartment. Unfortunately his Iphone slipped out of his pocket while playing around. His “find my iphone” app got him close to the location of the lost phone but it was clearly under the snow somewhere! He found me listed in the Ring Finders directory and several hours later I was there with my metal detector! He pointed out where he was fooling around in the snow….and where the “find my iphone” app was suggesting its location. Less than 10 minutes into search I got the signal I was looking for with my machine…moved aside about 8 inches of snow…and there was his iphone!!! Adeep was surprised and very happy that I was able to locate his lost phone so fast!

Lost gold ring found in London

  • from London (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:

Driving along on the freeway, this gentleman had a welding mask fly out of the truck in front of him that actually got lodged under his car. So he had to pull over on the snow covered shoulder and dislodge this mask from under his car. Unfortunately, while doing so, his wedding ring had come off. His wife helped him look for his ring for an hour, but luck was not on their side. The next day he had found me online, and we set a time to meet up on the highway. I’m glad to say he will be taking his wedding ring home today!

Ring lost at Ocean Beach found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Pedro was involved in a volleyball game, when his wedding ring decided to take a sand bath. He went online and found TheRingFinders.com and contacted Curtis Cox up the coast a ways. Curtis told him to contact me (thanks Curtis!) as I am a lot closer. When I met Pedro at the beach volleyball court, another detectorist they met on the beach was already there and searching the side of the court that Pedro had been in. I started on the opposite side up against the net and made a couple of passes post to post parallel to the net. With not even one target, I figured I should probably verify the other guy had been thorough with his side. The other guy detecting was already beyond the end line of the court, so, I started on his side up against the net and made a pass there. About 3/4 of the way across, I got a nice 30 tone on my Equinox 900 and told Pedro that this is a good sound for a gold ring. Sure enough, my pin pointer zeroed in on the target and Pedro’s ring was just under the surface of the sand. A pleasure to meet you Pedro, glad you won your game, got your ring back, and thank you for the reward.

On a side note, people should be careful who they ask for help in these situations. I think in this case, the other guy detecting was probably an upstanding individual and would have happily returned the ring, but, that isn’t always the case, as I know a couple of guys that won’t return anything, or, hold it hostage. In addition, you don’t know what sort of expertise these random people have either, and you may just give up if they don’t find the item, thinking that they eliminated that area as the target zone when in reality, they just missed the target, like in this case. All the members here that I’ve worked with know how to properly grid and area, know their machine, and I’m confident that they will return your lost item. Why take a chance, when you can get a GENUINE ring finder!

Found Ring McCalla, AL

  • from Montevallo (Alabama, United States)
Contact:

This all started November 22nd. Jennifer contacted me about her lost engagement ring, it just so happened to be her Grandmothers ring. She had a rough idea of where she lost it but was unable to locate it. Her and her husband had borrowed an older detector but was unable to pinpoint anything because “all it did was beep on everything” I assured her if it was there I would find it. She was going out of town for Thanksgiving and wanted to set something up for the following week. She contacted me Saturday the 30th after Thanksgiving and asked if I was available for Sunday mid-day to early afternoon. Knowing how sentimental this ring was to her, I decided to load up the whole arsenal and my wife with her detector. We arrived and Jennifer showed me a few areas where she was doing some yard work. She was very confident it was in a small area where she was spreading straw. So we began. The spot was in an animal cage so I knew there would be some chatter from all the fencing, so I popped the small coil on and went to work. First signal hit strong and only gave me one arrow on the Equinox 700, a quick glance revealed a concrete slab right under the dirt with rebar in it. I knew then that was going to present a new obstacle. Second target sounded great and in the gold range, however it was a piece of foil. Then all the sudden a loud assertive double tone and a 22 popped up on the Equinox my wife and I looked at each other with silent joy as to not get anyone’s hopes up, but we knew that sound all to well. My wife reached down and brushed away the straw to reveal a beautiful vintage solitaire engagement ring. We silently walked the ring over to Jennifer, who was visually very upset, and placed it into her shaking hands. Immediately the emotions poured down her cheeks. Right then I knew this ring was truly something special for her. Listening to her tell us about the struggles she had faced this year, my wife and I both struggled to not cry both for her and with her. This was truly the most emotional and rewarding recovery I have done to date. This is why I do what I do.

Ring lost in Ocean Beach found

  • from La Jolla (California, United States)
Contact:

Alex and his family were at a local sports park, and after tossing a ball for the last time, he pulled his hand out of his baseball glove and inadvertently pulled his wedding ring off his finger in the process. They looked around the grass for quite some time and finally gave up and went home. An online search brought Alex to TheRingFinders.com and my contact info. 40 minutes later, we met at the site and he gave me the story, description of the ring, and the approximate 50 foot squared search area. I set up some cones and got to work gridding. As most of you know, parks usually have a ton of stuff buried in the grass, and this place was no exception. Slowly, I made my way back and forth across the suspected search area, checking out dozens and dozens of targets. After about 45 minutes and an assortment of trash later, I got another good sounding target in the same “gold ring” range. I looked down, and sitting there in plain sight was his ring. Alex was walking around with his eyes to the ground in hopes of spotting his ring. I called him over and pointed to the ground in front of me. Alex was super happy to get his ring back, called his wife with the good news, and I got a big thank you from her too. A pleasure to meet you and thank you for the reward.

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

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

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!

White Gold Wedding Band Lost, Found and Returned in Willow Grove, PA!!!

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)
Contact:

Received a text from Edward after he found me in The Ring Finders directory. He was raking and bagging leaves at his home in the Willow Grove, PA area when he noticed his ring had fallen off. He searched for hours and even purchased a metal detector to try to find the ring himself….but no luck. He decided to consult with an expert and i promptly met him at his home the next day. I told him on the phone the day before to not throw away any of the bags of leaves that he collected. When i got there…I noticed that he poured the contents of all the leaf bags into one large pile….but he said he and his wife went through it all already. I turned my machine on….after 2 or 3 swings over the leaf pile…I received a signal in my headphones that was an obvious surface gold ring! Bent down with my pin pointer and after a total search time of 1 minute I picked up his ring! He couldn’t believe it but the relief on his face was priceless!

Lost Gold Pendant in Public Park-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I got a text from Jae late Thursday evening and she said she had lost her gold pendant in a local public park.  She and her friend had looked all evening until around midnight that night.  The pendant was made from the engagement ring her grandfather had given her grandmother in 1942. So it was very sentimental to her and all she had left of her grandparents.  The grass in that area was pretty deep, so finding it by sight was nearly impossible.  I got there by around noon the next day on Friday.  She had the area marked where she noticed the broken necklace.  I had marked out a block for my search that was about 75 feet by 50 feet.  That search area bordered a sidewalk on one side.  Being a public park I assumed the ground there would be very contaminated with metallic trash and other items, and it did not dissapoint.  Fortunately, with the Manticore metal detector I was able to differentiate between what was on the surface and what was deeper.  That still lengthens the search time because every target has to be inspected before moving on.  I completed the grid search in the block I had marked out and found nothing except pull tabs and a nickle.  So I moved down a little and marked out another block, this one a little smaller.  About halfway through that search area I was about 12 feet from the sidewalk and I got a 41 on the Manticore that was on the surface.  The grass there was about 3 inches deep so I pulled out my pinpointer to locate whatever it was.  The pendant was there, completely covered with grass and was not visible to the eye.  My total search time was about 2 hours.
