Lost Wedding Ring Recovered Woodbury Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

I received a call from Mike about his wife losing her wedding ring. Losing a ring can be very traumatic, though Mike stayed calm and started some research on how to find a missing ring. He came upon theringfinders.com and started reading about all the recoveries made. Mike gave me a call and asked if I could help. His wife was out watering the plants in the backyard and cleaning up after their dog. When she got back in the house and started to wash her hands, she noticed only her engagement ring was on her finger and the wedding band was missing. These cases are tough when the person has no clear knowledge of when the ring came off. It could have been while leaving work, in her car, in the house or in the yard. I ask many questions to try and narrow the search as much as possible. Both Mike and his wife were pretty sure the ring fell off in the backyard while doing chores. As I let everyone know up front, if the ring is in the yard, I’ll find it. If it’s not there, we can start looking other places such as in her car. I have found many rings hiding under the seats and in little crevices  in a car. They hide incredibly well. We all went to the back yard and she showed me exactly where she was watering and cleaning up. I started a grid search of the yard to cover every square inch. It only took 10 minutes or so and my Minelab Manticore gave me the beautiful gold tone. I knelt down with my pinpointer in the thick grass and there it was!!! It’s such a great feeling to find these lost valuables. Truly glad I could help out.

Take Care,

Lost Gold Necklace Recovered Minnesota Metal Detecting

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

Sam gave me a call and was wondering if theringfinders.com could help out when losing a gold necklace in 10 – 20 feet deep water, with a bunch of weeds and muck at the bottom. I said of course, we always give it our best shot no matter what. As most detectorists know, necklaces are very hard to find with a metal detector. Necklaces are thin and for some reason, they don’t register at all or are very faint. Sam knew the area he lost it in and he put me in a 25′ X 25′ area with a drop off from 8′ to 20′ deep. I made a plan to clean every piece of metal out of that area and then try to find the gold chain. It took me roughly one and half hours to clean it out and then I started my search. With no hits on the detector for 20 minutes, I received a faint hit. I went back over the area with my Excalibur detector and figured it was not just a false hit “we get a lot of false hits metal detecting.” I started to push my coil further down into the muck and zeroed in on the hit. After a little digging I felt something different in my hand than muck and weeds, I waved my hand in front of my detector and heard that nice deep tone of gold.  Another success story, which I love to write!!!!

Congrats on the necklace Sam, I know how important it is to you.

Lost Wedding Band Recovered Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

Ethan went to his families cabin for a little rest and relaxation. He decided to take his dog into the lake for a little play time. He told me that he seriously thought about taking off his ring before gong into the water, though second guessed himself as he wouldn’t be staying in long or going very deep into the water. After getting out of the water, he noticed his wedding band was missing.  He was pretty frantic and was really concerned about how disappointed his wife might be. He search the internet and found theringfinders.com. We spoke about the situation and I assured him that I would be able to recover the ring. I’ve been doing this for over 40 years now and I have learned all the tricks of the trade. As I tell people often “Not trying to sound pompous here” If the ring is there, I will find it. Being that Ethan was in 3 feet to 7 feet of water, I had to scuba dive. The dive took about 20 seconds and I found his wedding band. Ethan told me his wife is pregnant with their first child, so I wanted to say congrats and I wish you a lifetime of happiness!!!

Take care.

Lost Gold Ring Recovered Prior Lake Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

Elizabeth and her daughter were at a friends lake house, relaxing and hanging out on the dock. Her daughter jumped into the water and asked if Mom would join her. After a little back and forth, she decide to jump in for a dip. Elizabeth took her gold ring off for safe keeping, but she fumbled it a bit and it dropped straight through the deck boards into 9 feet of water. This ring was special as she melted down a couple of other rings to make one special ring with her daughters birth stone. They tried their best to recover it, though it was just too deep and soon it disappeared into the sandy bottom. Elizabeth searched the internet for help and came across theringfinders.com and contacted me. We discussed the scenario of what happened and set up a day & time for the search.  Liz’s daughter pointed out exactly where it should be, and she was right on the spot! Recovered in about 15 seconds. Thanks for your help.

Happy I could help out, it was nice meeting both of you – Take care.

Lost Wedding / Engagement Ring Recovery Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

I received a call from Tina in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, about 45 minutes from me. She was out playing catch with the kids in her backyard. At some point she noticed her diamond ring was missing from her finger. Her and her family check all over the yard and couldn’t find it. One of the neighborhood kids has a metal detector and he scanned the area also, nothing. Tina was searching the internet for help when she googled “lost ring recovery in yard” and theringfinders.com website popped up. She called and we set a day & time for the search. This was a a wide open backyard with no metal or electrical interference, which is very nice for us metal detectorists.  It only took about 5 minutes and the grass gave up this beautiful white gold diamond ring. Truly glad I could help you out Tina, Congrats!!

Lost Diamond / Gold Pendant Recovery Minnesota

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)

Allison’s Mom was out picking rhubarb when she notice her necklace pendant was missing from the chain around her neck. This necklace was a mothers day gift given to her nearly 20 years ago. It is gold with 3 diamonds representing her husband and two children. Of-course her whole family spent many hours searching the area to no avail. Without her mother knowing, she searched the internet for help and came across the ring finders website. She contacted me and we came up with a day & time to meet for the search. Allison was very excited to find this precious piece for her Mom, I told her, I’ll do my very best! A huge obstacle was an electric pole with a transformer right next to the search area. I had to play with my Manticore settings to get the best sensitivity level while trying to mask the electromagnetic interference. After going through the the rhubarb area with only 1 hit, an old bullet casing, I decided to expand to the grassy area around the mulch. A few swing later and I heard that beautiful “gold tone” a deep solid tone. There it was, pushed just far enough into the ground that it wasn’t visible. Allison called her Mom and told her the great news!!! She had her phone on speaker, so I was able to hear the excitement, which is a bonus for me 🙂

Allison, it was nice to meet you and I’m truly blessed to be able to help in these types of situations. Congrats and thanks for reaching out to theringfinders.com.

Mariam recently came to the U.S. to study at the university level in Minnnesota. While enjoying a day at a local fall festival with friends, Mariam lost a ring that her Mother gave to her just before leaving for America. The white gold ring was designed as a Mother/Daughter ring to help Mariam feel close to home while away. She rented a metal detector and searched for 3 hours only finding a few coins. While searching the internet for help, Mariam came across theringfinders.com and called me right away. I met her out at the festival the next morning and she pointed out the area she believed the lost ring would be. It only took about 10 seconds, my first hit and I found the beautiful double heart diamond filled mother daughter ring. Congrats Mariam, so glad I could help.
