Metal Detecting for a lost Diamond Earring/White Rock/Cresent Beach/BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Today I had a search for a lost diamond earring that was pulled off the ladies ear by her puppy… The lady and her husband took the puppy to the vet to have it ex-rayed to make sure the dog didn’t swallow it.

The ex-rays didn’t show that the puppy swallowed the earring so they searched the area of the garden that they believed it was lost in, but found nothing.

I have to say that earrings are very difficult to locate due to the fact that there is very little gold on the post that holds in the diamonds. That being said I love a challenge, and this earring was bigger then most so I knew I’d get a good signal. This search was closing in on 2 hours and the search area was small but a few plants and shrubs made it difficult.

I was ready to grid search the rest of the backyard because I didn’t find it where we thought it would be, but for some reason I went back to the spot that I’d been searching(with my hands in the shrubs) and this time I received a faint signal and as I started to move some lose dirt out popped the earring.

The earrings were a 10 year anniversary gift and as you can see in the picture above…It made her day that it was found!

I love my job!

Metal Detecting…For a Lost BMW Car Key in Poco BC…

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I received a call from a young lady who found my metal detecting service on the internet today.

She had lost her BMW car key that her husband threw to her but unfortunately he threw it to hard and it landed in the bushes behind her… so they thought.

They had spend over 3 hours searching for the key and the lady had to take a day off work as she only had the one key.

The cost to have a new key cut would of been outrageous! I had to find this key for them!

When I arrived at the location her husband was still in the bushes digging around.

I took my VW key off my keychain and asked if it was similar to the key they had lost and he said it was.

I then asked him to go to the spot from where he threw the key, then I had his wife stand where she was when he threw it to her.

I then told him to throw my key the same way he did with his key… He thought I was crazy because If I couldn’t find my key then I’d be stuck there…But I knew I’d find it with my detector, if need be so.

This proved to be a good thing as I got to see the direction and how far the key flew in the air. It was in the other lot on the other side of the fence, so I started my search there and within 5 minutes I got a good signal and her husband moved the bushes and there was the key!

It wasn’t a diamond ring…But the smile was just as big!

I love my job!

Metal Detecting…Golden Garden/Delta BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

This weekend I had a search for a mans white gold wedding band that was lost while gardening earlier in the week. When I arrived at the location I was greeted by a young man named Wes.

We talked about the search area and we decided to start at the back where he had 6 or 8 bags of yard trimmings that were waiting for me to search.

This was a good place to start as the first bag gave me a good solid signal that read ring on my visual display of my detector. We dumped half the bag and the signal was now close to the top of what was left in the bag.

Poking my had around in the bag we both saw the ring at the same time, it was a very fast recovery! Makes up for the searches that take hours…

I love my job!

Metal detecting…Found white gold wedding band on a beach in Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Well the summer is almost here and we had a nice sunny day, it must have been close to 70 degrees.

I received a call from a man by the name of Richard and he told me that he lost his white gold wedding band at the beach (Spanish Banks) in Vancouver.

He told me that he felt the ring come off his finger when he was throwing a football, he marked the area that he was standing in and then searched the internet on his phone for someone to help find his ring.

I think he said he typed in  »ring finders » in Vancouver and I came up a few times, so he called, and I came out to find the ring.

When I got there I was greeted by a friend of Richard’s and he walked me over to where they were sitting on the beach.

I met Richard and he showed me the area and it only took me a little over 30 seconds to find the ring.

I started where he was standing and throwing the football and on my second line of my grid search and my first good signal…I found his ring.

I love my job!

Metal detecting for a gold cat ring/Lost in North Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Just the other day I get a call from a lady that was desperate to find her gold ring that was lost while gardening at her daughters place.

When I showed up she showed me the area that the ring was lost in and told me that the ring was gold and shaped like a cat.

She bought the ring in Mexico and it was a one of a kind ring that she loved very much. We walked around the yard and when I saw the area I knew it wouldn’t take long to find the ring.

It only took minutes to search the small garden area on the side of the house and when I didn’t find it she was surprised!

I then searched four bags of yard trimmings that she bagged and it wasn’t in there, I went back to the garden area and expanded my search onto the grass and minutes later I found her golden cat.

The smile shows you that she was very happy that  »The Cat Came Back »!

Olympus Camera Found on Seymour Mountain

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

May 11th 2009 Seymour Mountain Ski Resort /Vancouver BC…

Today I was working up at Seymour Mountain and on my lunch break I was walking around searching the area where the main parking lot is and where they push the snow over the side of the road.

I had no metal detector so I was just eye balling the change and things that was sitting on the top of the snow. I found $17.00 in change and a Olympus camera that had most likely been there in the snow for over two months.

The camera seemed to be in good shape and the reason I know it was there for a few months was that the memory stick fit my camera and the pictures were of this person and friends enjoying the snow in the middle of a snow fall, and that would be a while back!

I’m hoping that person will find me so I can return the camera and memory stick with the photos of friends and good times.

If this is your camera please contact me…

I love my job

Front Yard Diamond Ring/Surrey BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

book-of-smiles-016

What would you do to find your lost diamond ring? This lady and her husband cut down some small trees and bushes then they weeded the area and searched on their hands and knees for hours on the side of their yard where they believed the ring was lost.

The next day they were talking to friends that said they should rent a metal detector so they found one to rent and searched for hours. Unfortunately they had no luck in finding the marquee diamond engagement ring.

After giving up and believing that they’d never see the ring again, the lady reads a story about my service  »Finders » in a local paper.
With nothing to lose they call me and tell me about the lost ring.

I’m excited to come out and take a look for the ring, I can tell this gives them a glimmer of hope. When I get there we discuss the area and we talk about the search they did for the ring.

I decide to check the front yard first but they tell me that there’s no way the ring is lost on the front yard. I told them that I wanted to get it out of the way before going into the area that they just searched for two days.

This turns out to be a good call as I find the ring in about 3 minutes…Some times it pays off to follow your gut feeling! They were amazed at how fast I found the ring and where I found it.

Luck some times comes into play and it makes up for the rings that take many hours to find.

Again the smile tells you the story…

I love my job!

Thick Silver Wedding Band lost at Pitt lake…Found

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I get a call from a young man and he tells me that he lost his wedding band in the Pitt Meadows area in BC.

He goes on to tell me that he lost it where he was fishing and he knew the exact area at Pitt lake where his large silver ring came off his finger.

I agree to meet him and we drove out together to find his ring, when I get there its full of weeds and the water was ankle deep.

I thought it might be difficult to find the area but he was sure he knew where it was, we didn’t have much time as this is a tidal river and the tide was coming in!

He spots the area and I begin to search quickly, it shouldn’t take long as he was sure this was the area, I thought to myself. After 15 minutes and no ring I started to think maybe we were in the wrong spot.

Just then he calls out to me and said maybe its this spot here…The tide was moving in very fast and it was getting close to my knees now so I knew we didn’t have much time.

I started my grid search in the new area and within 5 minutes I received a good loud signal and there was his ring! He was so pleased and I was so happy that we found it before the water was over my head!

Check out his smile…

I love my job!

Diamond ring lost on soccer field in Surrey BC.

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

This story is about a lady who called me and was very upset about losing her diamond ring that was given to her by her mother.
Every time I get a call for  »Finders » I get excited about the chance of helping find someone’s ring for them.

Some searches are harder then others and you really don’t know how long it will take until you find it or not. This search was going to be a difficult because after talking to her on the phone she told me that the ring could be lost anywhere on two soccer fields.

When I met up with her at the park she walked over to a part of the field where she was watching one of her kids who was playing soccer. She said that she watched the game for a while and half way through that game she walked her other child to another field for a game.

Throughout the day she was back and forth watching both games and some where in that park the ring fell off into the grass, the question now was… where?

I decided to start my search in the area that she took me to first. That proved to be a good starting point as 15 minutes later I found the ring… I think she was as shocked as I was that the ring was found so fast!…The smile tells you the rest!

I love my job!
