Found Men's silver wedding band with name on it-need help trying to locate him.

[Rings&bling]

I was hunting at a local high school, and found this silver man's wedding band, with his name inscribed on the front, and what must be the wedding date inside of the band. I want to return it to him, but I am having difficulty tracking him down. Can you all give me some ideas on how to be a detective?

I would suggest looking up wedding announcements from your local newspaper for the date inscribed, plus back a week or so earlier. If you cant find a match, drop the search and keep the ring. If you cant find that local connection it will be impossible to guess where it could be from, or what has happened to the unknown person since losing it.

Thanks for the help! What I didn't reveal on my initial post is that the wedding date inscribed on the ring is 20 years ago...this guy looks REALLY young. Perhaps its a relative of his? I will still reach out...Thank you, Villival, good sleuthing!

Thanks, Don....unfortunately, this guy lives in Spain. It appears Colorado is part of his last name from his Facebook page...I traced down a phone number online yesterday for a guy with the same name who lived in the suburb where I found the ring, but got no response. I will keep trying...

Nice ring, kudos for effort to return it.

Probably best not to post names on an open forum, could very well open yourself up to scammers claiming to be the guy.

I can see your point, Xraywolf, however, a scammer would have to tell me what is inscribed inside the ring. On another note, I see you have both an ACE 400 and an Equinox 800. How is the transition from the Garrett product to the Minelab? I really want to get another detector, but I am not sure I should go with the AT Pro or the Equinox....your thoughts?

Though I have had the Nox for a year I have not used it yet, been killing it with the Simplex though which IMO has capabilities and features which rival the nox at 1/3 the price. I love the 400, simple and reliable but I need a backlight as I do alot of hunting at night and also need adjustable volume, the 400 has neither. No particular reason I haven't used the nox yet, just been busy with limited chances to detect. AT I used only in the water, was hoping to do that with the nox but after a flood of reports from nox users about units fried from water exposure, I decided not to. I like the AT has been reliable in the water for over 5 years, but it is a bit dated in looks and features. If you plan on going in the water then for sure AT over Nox

Thanks, Xraywolf, that information is very helpful!

So, is this ring marked 925. If it is silver then I wouldn’t worry about scammers. Not many will go through the work to claim a ring of limited monetary value. If there is a chance it’s white gold then you need to be a bit more careful. Facebook is a great place to start. If the Raul Perez isn’t the right one then maybe he knows of others with a similar name. Or you post the whole story on your Facebook page and ask if your friends can pass it on. Also, linked in is a good place to locate people with that name.

Thanks, Susan! It is silver...and it has 3 small stones in it. If they are real diamonds, they are so small they aren't worth much...
