A young lady lost her gold ring a couple of weeks ago. It was given to her by her grandmother. This was a family heirloom and needed to be recovered.
After a long search in a very popular scenic site of Wittennham Clumps in Oxfordshire the pair were finally reunited.
Made everyone’s day.
Received a call from Jason yesterday requesting my service to locate his girl friend’s ring which she lost off her finger in tall grass at the campground they were staying over the weekend, and it was imperative that the ring be found!
I agreed to help him! Jason picked me up we drove to the area and I could see where they both had spent hours in the tall grass looking for the ring with no luck.
Within ten minutes I found the ring near by where they had cut the grass
Another happy client! Jason was so happy, thank you Jason, it was a pleasure to help you.
How do you find a lost ring at the beach, whether you lost it in the sand or in the ocean, start by calling me, Louis at 305-608-1870. I can help you find your lost ring or any other type of jewelry. I can take my detector in the ocean !!!! Take a look at some of the pictures below and my other blogs and posts of some other successful recoveries. Before you call me please take a look around and try to remember where you lost your ring. Look for objects such as lifeguard stands, beach chairs, or buildings. Use these as points of reference. After, try to put a marker in the dry sand a few feet away from where you lost it just incase you have to leave the area. PLEASE don’t tell anyone that you lost it because they might try to find it and keep it. The faster you call me the faster I can return it to you…. So don’t wait.
I was metal detecting in the water and this couple chased me down that he had lost his ring a few minutes ago while swimming…Found it!!
Alex and Anne Norton both excited after I found his grandmothers ring that he gave to Anne as an engagement ring. Found about 50 ft out in the water
Jeffrey called me about 4:30pm about finding his misplaced ring. I know the beach well and there are many detectorist that comb the sand daily. Therefore it was most important to start searching ASAP. I told Jeffrey that I could meet him at the beach in about 45 minutes. I made it to the beach in 35. I got ready and when Jeffrey showed up we started the short walk to a secluded sandy spot. I thought it would be an easy search – I was wrong. Two beer cans, a couple of pull tabs and a quarter and one target so deep it is still there. But no ring.
Then it was off to second area closer to the water and wet sand. Dang! I had the wrong detector for this search, but I would give it a try anyway as it was a small area and I could see just where Jeffrey had been sitting. In just three swings of the detector a solid response to a buried object was ringing in my ears. Next was to take a scoop of sand and yes in the sand was a platinum ring, the object of my search. I sifted the sand from the scoop leaving only the ring. Now it was Jeffrey’s turn to do something except watch me with great expectations. It was his task to remove the ring from the scoop and place it back on his finger were it belonged.
The round trip from and back to the cars took less than 25 minutes. When back at the cars a couple of quick stories were shared and pictures were taken. The only down side to this return was it delayed both Jeffrey’s and my timely entrance to our dinner engagements. However, the entrances were made with smiles, just a bright as the ones in the photo for sure.
As many questions that were asked it was not until James was in the water with me and remembered a small splash which he thought to be a gull’s dropping. But where was the little splash? Close to the big splash from a rock that was being tossed. But where is the rock…Here it is and the little splash was about 20 feet away.
After a two hour search this little splash was right on…but it was not make by a bird, rather it was made by Erin’s engagement ring. Another 3 minutes of searching and the ring was in my scoop. As Erin was not at the beach James had the honor of removing the ring from my scoop. It was now up to James to place the ring back on his wife’s finger.
Many on the beach had heard of the ring’s loss and were amazed that it was found in such a vast area. Had it not been for James’ keen memory, I might still be looking for the jewel that means so much to the wonderful couple.
Brian lost his custom made wedding band over a year ago while doing road maintenance on his lake lot he told me he took off his ring and placed the ring on the back bumper of his truck while he was spreading gravel, and of course he forgot about the ring and drove away he then realized his ring was missing and asked if I could find the ring.
I had two little helpers to help me locate the ring and within ten minute we found the ring buried under two inches of gravel great recovery Saydee and Reese.
Future Detectorist
A mother’s warning went unheeded – “Don’t take your wedding band to the beach.” Well a bit later Alex’s dive into the salty water provided the action that precipitated the need for a Ring Finder. Yes, his ring of only a year had slipped from his finger into the the depths of Davy Jones’ locker. Withing three hours I received a call for help. It seems all the searching by Alex and the Life Guards could not bring the ring out of the deep waters of Nantucket Sound. The tide was now some 2 feet higher than when the ring was lost and the sun was slipping closer to the horizon. It would be another 5 hours before a search could begin without scuba gear.
The sun set, the moon rose and the Big Dipper was now bright in the sky and Jim (my summer detecting comrade) and I were headed south into the darkness and shoulder deep water. As we began swinging our detectors caused flashes of blue light appeared underwater. The bio-luminescence was being given off when we touched small jellyfish. We also kept an eye to the northern sky, hoping to see the very unusual occurrence of the appearance of the Northern Lights as far south as Cape Cod.
Unfortunately we did not sees the Northern Lights, but Jim did rescue David Yurman from the grip that Davy Jones had on him. Jim’s bright LED light caused the diamonds to sparkle brighter than the stars and the circle of gold to shine heavenly against a bed of sea shells in his steel bucket. Now there was nothing more to do except notify Sandy (Alex’s mother) that the recovery had been made and a meeting for the return set.
The return was delayed due to Cape Cod traffic, but the wait was well worth it for everyone. Jim and I had a chance to pass on information about metal detecting, a few stories, and return the ring. As a Thank You gift, Sandy had brought some very special and delicious cookies, which were shared with Eleanor as she was the one that gave Sandy my contact information. Sandy will pass the ring onto Alex on their next meeting. Until then pictures are of the ring and three smiles will fill the void held for Alex’s smile which I am sure matches that of his wife’s because of The Ring Finders.
Lost ring in Lake Of The Ozarks Mo.
I received a call from Dave on July 4 as I was traveling to recover a ring in Illinois. He said his wife saw the ring fall into the water just inches from the boat dock. What a sinking feeling that must have been!
Upon learning that the location was just 7ft deep with a fairly solid bottom, I told Dave “piece of cake, I can be there tomorrow”. The trip is 4.5 hrs. therefore Dave said he would check for a place to stay the night.
Dave had asked his best friend Bob and Bob’s dad (property owner) to assist me in finding the ring. Upon my arrival we set up the diving equipment and started the search. I quickly realized that there were some adverse conditions involved with using a metal detector. We knew where
the ring went down but it wasn’t sitting there on top of the leaves, twigs, limbs, logs and misc. metal trash. The ring had sank deeper due to being disturbed from previous attempts at finding it!
We soon resorted to drilling holes in my 5 gal. bucket and then using it to bring up mud. Bob and his dad scanned the mud with my spare detector. Upon dumping the 18th bucket of mud they saw the shine of a beautiful triple wedding ring. Their mood changed from frustration to intense jubilation. I drove 3 hrs. to personally return the ring to Erica and Dave who had been at work the last couple days. To finally meet this great couple was a very pleasant experience.
It needs to be stressed to everyone to not disturb the site of a ring lost under water. Just get with theringfinders.com.
I enjoy the challenge of solving problems which others have attempted. I especially enjoy the smiles I get upon returning a very cherished piece of someone’s life.
Today was a great day! I was on the way to pick up my son when Josh from North Alabama called. Josh was frantic because he had lost his wedding band in the gulf a few hours earlier while throwing football with a family member. His wife said not to bother even calling because they were in waist deep water and she thought it was a lost cause. Josh looked up Ringfinders and got my number and decided to take a chance. I am so glad he did! The best part of today was that my son got to go and see what I do for people. When I finally found it, I let my son hand it to Josh and my boy has not stopped talking about “how happy they were”. Now he completely understands why I like finding things for people they thought were lost forever. So Nice to meet you and your family Josh. I am so glad I was able to find your wedding ring.
