Wedding Ring Lost In Garden

April 17, 2018 by Prospector

Another Mine For Gold ring finder success story.

Philip lost his platinum wedding band while gardening at home in Auckland. He was standing at a raised garden bed when it was raining. He said he shook his hands to rid them of dirt. The next thing he hears is a ping noise behind him, he is 1 metre from the boundary fence.

The ring went through the netting fence into a pile of grass clippings and compost. After an hour and a half crawling around in the mud, rain and humidity it was finally located in the neighbours property. What made it extra challenging was that his property backs on to two other neighbours so I had to dig in 3 different properties!

Ian uses a ctx3030 (The GPS function comes in really handy for big search areas) and an X pointer from Deteknix to successfully find your lost rings.

Finding Rings In The South

June 24, 2014 by Prospector

Not Lord of the Rings, but definitely Master of Finding Lost Rings.

A ring finding SOS went out to the Mine For Gold ring finding team in the south of NZ and the result …

Having driven for over an hour on a frosty sunny morning through the heart of the Waimea plains, I finally arrived at the home of a woman who had lost two rings while weeding around a tree on her property.

After a warm welcome and a few details about the rings I throw on the gummies and grabbed my Goldbug, knife and spade and we made our way to the tree.

I could see straight away that she had spent a lot of time searching and digging. I moved all the loose dirt into one pile and waved detector over it. Nothing there.

A couple of swings 30cm away from tree and BINGO! solid signal, about 150 mm down first ring, a silver celtic ring, couple swings later and BINGO! the white gold ring only a couple of inches from the first ring.

Ring Finder Success Story

January 4, 2014 by Nugget

Another Mine For Gold Ring Finder success story.

A damsal in distress lost her ring on the lawn while putting her son in the car. Despite many hours on their hands and knees scouring the area nothing showed up.

Local ring finder Al came to the rescue. Despite a wild Wellington weather day and an area littered with false targets he persisted. In this case persistance equalled reward. The shiney gold engagement ring eventually popped out of the undergrowth making one damsal a very happy girl.

Our knight in shining armour packed up his metal detector and rode off into the rain – ring found, job done!

See if you can spot the ring he uncovered with some skilled detecting work…

Lost Ring Found

Treasure Hunters Metal Detector Rental

Lost Jewellery Found By Treasure Hunters For Hire.

Lost Ring

No need to buy a metal detector to find your lost wedding ring or lost engagement ring when you can hire a metal detector and a skilled operator.

Although it is possible to buy new jewellery to replace lost treasures, you can not replace the sentimental value of the original item. Do not despair. Treasure hunters are here to help you recover your lost rings and misplaced jewellery.

Gold rings and silver rings can all be found with a metal detector whether lost in the garden or lost at the beach. Anything metal can potentially be recovered from lost keys to lost toys to lost precious metals.

Steps To Take When You lose A Ring:

Mark the spot as accurately as possible where you believe you have lost your ring. Do this as soon as you notice it has gone missing. The narrower the search area the more likely your ring can be recovered in a timely manner.
Do not panic. If a quick visual survey of the area does not turn up your lost ring or lost jewellery then call your local treasure hunter. Most experienced metal detector operators with good equipment can recover items buried to a reasonable depth in mud or sand.
Often lost items of jewellery turn up in unexpected places. That is to say that it is often not lost where people think they lost it. So if your lost ring is not recovered by your local treasure hunter in the area you first expected it may not be the fault of the metal detector.

Lost Treasures We Can Find
