A vote of confidence on election day – Lost Gold Heirloom Ring Found, Pittsburgh, PA
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. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…
I was contacted by Lynn who informed me her husband had lost his gold wedding ring while working in the front yard of the house. This is common during this time of year as many of my calls are for items lost doing end of the season cleanup. We made arrangements for me to come out the next day as I probably would have ran out of daylight by the time I arrived.
I arrived the next day and was greeted by Lynn and shortly after her husband Hal. Hal explained that he saw the ring come off his finger and heard it clink on something before it disappeared. They had been removing leaves one by one from the area where it was lost being careful not to throw the ring into the leaf bags.
I looked around and they had done a very good job of cleaning up the immediate area. I was thinking the ring was further back hidden in the bushes. I began to search and came up empty. There was an azalea bush in a metal cage to keep the deer away and it sounded just like the ring I was looking for. I informed Hal that we might have to take the cage down for me to find it. He asked if I would check the leaf bags before we did that in the off chance it was there before we removed the cage. I started to check the bags using my pinpointer…and inside the first bag I got a hit. We dumped the bag only to find out it was not the ring. I checked the other bag and went back up to the front yard in the area by the bushes. I asked Hal if we could take the cage down and started to look one more time prior to doing so. All of sudden I got a nice sound and on the exterior of the garden bed next to the brick edging was the ring! I was confident that I was going to find it but thought for sure it was going to be in the bushes. It was a relief to find it and before we took the cage off. Hal was extremely thankful and appreciative!
In talking to Hal he informed me that the ring was a family heirloom and had belonged to his grandfather who was a war hero that fought in both WWI and WWII. The ring was immensely important to him as an heirloom and wedding band and I was glad I was able to locate it. I spent the next little while speaking with Hal and Lynn about all sorts of things and could have probably spent the entire afternoon talking and not even realized it. It was great to meet such kind and generous people and return the very special ring to Hal.
