Lost Hearing Aid in Grass .. Mission Viejo, CA. .. Found

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Jim called me, inquiring if my metal detector could locate a small hearing aid. My answer was, it depends on the location and the type of hearing aid. It would be necessary to meet at the location and I would need the other hearing aid or a spare battery.
Jim was sure he lost the hearing aid when he pulled a doggy pop bag from his pocket, where he had put his one and only hearing aid. It was a grassy area at a park which was a couple blocks from his home.
We met at the park and I was able to tune my XP Deus metal detector to get a reading from the small battery. The area was 20′ x 120′ with 2″ thick grass. The hearing aid was about the size of a cashew nut which made me think this would possibly be an eyeball find. Even though Jim had searched the evening before calling me, I know the lighting angle of the sun may make it easier to see at a different time of day.
I asked Jim to start at the opposite end of our search zone and I worked toward him. Twenty minutes into the search, Jim yelled at me, ” I Found It!” He was a happy man because it had just been repaired and he was upset at himself for carelessly putting it in his pocket with the plastic bag.

Lost ring in lake, in Heathrow, Florida…returned to owner!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

The other day my good friend Chris texted me about a lost ring in a small lake in the Heathrow area. In casual conversation a neighbor mentioned to Chris that she had lost her precious silver ring while feeding bread to the fish. It happened just after Christmas and Tina could not get her mind off of loosing the very ring her brother had given her just a few years ago. After hearing her story Chris told her “I know just the guy to help you get your ring back!” So the following day—Valentines Day–I made arrangements to meet Tina and have her show me where she lost her ring. The original information I received was that the ring was lost only a few days ago so when I arrived and got set up–I concentrated my search efforts in the water from the shore out to about three feet deep. After a thorough search in the water and coming up empty handed I called Tina to come out and explain to me again what all happened the day she lost her ring. Come to find out she actually lost it a few days after Christmas, so that turned out to be 6 weeks ago and we have had very little rain and the water level had dropped a good two feet or so since then. I realized just where she would have been standing and the drop zone area would be up the bank further. And sure enough after a few sweeps of my coil over the dry ground–there was Tina’s lost ring just under a thin layer of dirt and mud! Tina could not believe I had found her lost ring and was thrilled to get it back on her finger!
So thanks Chris, for contacting me and helping bring joy and relief to Tina!

Lost Diamond Ring Found in Cumberland RI

  • from Charlestown (Rhode Island, United States)
Contact:

On February 25th, I received a somewhat frantic call from Lisa.  Her custom-made diamond wedding ring-band had been missing for two weeks.  It was last seen in a bathroom drawer in their house, and Lisa and her husband had been combing the house since that time.  They assumed that their two-year old son had hidden the ring somewhere in the house or that he may have thrown it out of an open second-story window in his room.  Lisa had learned of The Ring Finders from a friend and asked for my help with the search.  I covered the area in the backyard directly under the window without any success.  I also suggested that the ring may have landed on an eave or its gutter just below the second floor windows but would have needed a ladder of over twenty-feet to reach the area.  We moved our search into the house, trying to imagine where a toddler would hide a ring.  After searching through closets, drawers, under furniture, etc., I saw her son trying to stuff something through a small space in his parents’ bedroom window and suggested that he may have done the same with her ring.  We opened the bedroom window, and Lisa hung out the window to check the eave and gutter, while I made sure that she didn’t fall out.  She was shocked and ecstatic to find her ring on the eave right under the window.

Texas A&M Class Ring Lost in the Grass of a home in Houston, Texas (found) by John Volek TRF-Houston, Texas.

I was contacted by Trevor regarding his lost Texas A&M Class ring in the front yard of his residence in Houston. Trevor reported while participating in some activities in his front yard he took off his ring and put it in the pocket of his gym shorts. Trevor said at the conclusion of the event he realized the ring was missing from his pocket. He reported he and his friends spent several hours searching for the ring, which eventually led him to renting a metal detector. With no success, Trevor searched the internet and found The Ring Finders and placed the call.

Check out the video to see the recovery of Trevor’s Texas A&M Class Ring:

Gold Ring Lost in Snow .. Big Bear, CA. .. Found and Returned

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Ridhima sent me an email asking me if I could search for a ring lost in the snow at Big Bear, CA. I sent her a reply asking her to call me so we could discuss the circumstances of the loss.
Ridhima and her husband, Shashank had taken their 4 year old daughter to see the snow for the first time. They had only spent about an hour playing in the snow. On their way home Ridhima noticed her ring missing. It was too late to return to search for the ring and she was not sure where the loss occurred. When they got home they reviewed Celphone videos the had taken. The ring was on when they were playing in the snow. She got on the Internet, locating TheRingFinders.com.
We had one problem, they were not able to meet me at the location. I asked them to send me photos, and a google satellite map marked with approximate location. After seeing the photos and the map, I agreed to make the 100 mile trip to search the snow for the gold ring.
The next morning I arrived at the location dressed for the cold weather. The snow was less than 8″ deep which would be within range of my metal detector. The only thing I learned was that gloves are nice to have when digging in the snow for metal signals.
It only took an hour of grid searching the area to find Ridhima’s special ring. I sent her a photo and we met on my way home to return the ring. They couldn’t believe that the ring they thought was lost forever was now back where it belongs. I have more respect for our fellow ringfinders that search the snow. Many of my searches are on beaches in the sand, much easier.

Platinum Wedding Ring Lost in Backyard .. Pasadena, CA. .. Found

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Thursday,  2-9-17

Peter called me early this morning from Pasadena, CA. He had lost his platinum wedding band in the back yard while gardening. He was sure that it was somewhere in the back yard. Although he had not felt the ring slip off his finger.
Peter’s plan was to rent a metal detector when he found TheRingFinders.com. He called me, asking if I was available. It was very important to have his ring for a formal wedding ceremony this next weekend.
Peter was at work but I was able to meet his wife, Nadia at noon. She showed me the area that Peter had done the most work. The ring did not show, so we expanded the area to where he had walked to get tools. As I was walking over to that location with Nadia, I got a short solid signal with my XP Deus metal detector. There, between the asphalt driveway and the grass was the platinum wedding band lying vertical. Nadia quickly bent down to retrieve the ring with a look of relief that they will now have this ring for their important wedding ceremony. Another happy successful recovery for me to remember. I love helping people find their precious sentimental keepsakes.

Lost Platinum Wedding Band .. Dana Point, CA. .. Found in Tot Lot

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Mike had walked to a neighborhood park with his young son. While they were at the kids play area he noticed his platinum wedding band missing from his finger. The last time he remembered seeing his ring was at the house.
That night he returned to the swings which had wood chips on the ground. He thought that using a flashlight while raking through the ground cover might give him a glimpse of the ring. There still was a chance that his ring may have slipped off anywhere between the house and the park.
After discussing the details of the loss, I could only offer to search the places where the ring could be hiding. The most likely would be the child’s swing area where he was the most active.
Mike met me at the park early the next morning and it didn’t take long to get a nice low tone signal that turned out to be Mike’s platinum ring. I took a few minutes to show Mike how the detector works by digging a few coins in the same area.
I had high hopes that the ring would be in the swing area. I can recall at least 5 other rings recovered at swing sets. It has become easier to determine where a ring was lost after hearing many lost ring stories. Still, you never know unless you try.

Gold Ring Lost in Sand .. Laguna Beach, CA. .. Found and Returned

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

While doing some grocery shopping in Laguna Beach, I received a call from Jeff at 6:30 pm. My cellphone reception was poor inside the store. So I went outside where I could make out that Jeff had lost a ring in a beach about 2 miles south of where I was shopping.
He told me that he had put his heirloom wedding ring in the cupholder of his beach chair. He didn’t remember it till he was already home. This ring was originally his grandfather’s and irreplaceable. Both Jeff and his wife were upset about the loss.
Jeff got online to research renting a metal detector. He located TheRingFinders.com, where he was able to get my phone number. After he told me about the event that led to the loss, I told him I’d go to the location right away. He sounded surprised but agreed to meet me in a half hour.
15 minutes later I parked at Pearl St. It was dark out, so I put my head lamp on grabbed my detector and sand scoop then walked down 50 steps to the beach. Jeff told me about a driftwood hut near where they had been all day.. Walking and swinging my detector directly toward the hut,  I hit a perfect signal that proved to be Jeff’s ring.. I turned to walk back up the steps where I could see Jeff. We met at the the top of the cliff, where I gave him his ring and took a photo of his smile.
The next day Jeff sent me a testimonial which I will send to our TRF’s testimonial page. Jeff was truly grateful.
