  • Land/Shallow Water Search

Cost For My Service

I work on a reward basis, that means you pay what it's worth to you and what you can afford for me to come out and find your lost item.

I have a call out fee of $30 to cover my fuel expense. Maybe more or less depending on where you are located.

Search Types

I can search year round winter ( items lost in the snow ) or summer on

dry land, beaches, wet areas and water up to 2 meter deep.

When searching for lost objects timing is very important, the sooner you call

the better chance of recovery.

Also available for hire to insurance companies.

Most family estates have been occupied for generations and over the years

many items of value were lost, misplaced or even buried. I offer this service

to those of you who are curious as to what treasures may lay under your feet.

( proof of ownership or permission from owner required to search private areas )

Search Locations

The Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM ) Area, other areas are negotiable.

Ted Young's Bio

I have had the pleasure and excitement of treasure hunting with family

and friends for over forty years. It has been a vary rewarding hobby, I

have found many coins, jewellery, antiques and collectables in most of

the Atlantic Provinces.

Now that I am retired, I have realized that this is the right time to offer my

expertise and services to the general public.

Anecdote :

One of my favorite finds happened about forty years ago, my then fiancé and

I were camping. That evening I took out my Bounty Hunter metal detector to

check out the local beach, within a half hour I struck gold. It was a beautiful

white and yellow gold men’s wedding ring. I Checked with the park personnel ,

but no lost rings were reported . The next year we got married and I used the

wedding ring I found.
