The Bay Area Ring Finders Brendon Chapman… Metal Detecting Service/Call ASAP     925-580-2590

When Betty walk onto Upton Beach, near Stinson Beach, CA a large gust of wind tried to blow her sun hat right off of her head. In the process, the adjustable chin strap caught on her earring and popped it right off.  She did what most people do and sought out to procure a metal detector to locate her prized earring in the dry sand.  She made several attempts at locating it to no avail.

By luck her daughter plays soccer in Marin…remember my earlier post from March, Lost Platinum and Diamond Wedding Band…Recovered from the Soccer Pitch?  As it turns out she plays soccer with the family from this story!  The family gave her my contact information and Betty reached out for assistance.

I scheduled to travel the one and a half hour drive to Upton Beach at my very next availability.  In tow, I brought my beautiful wife and toddler to take advantage of leaving the triple digit weather for the cooler coastal air. We arrived slightly before Betty and made our way to the scene of the mishap.  After a brief chat with her I got under way searching the dry sand near the entrance to the beach.  In less than 3 minutes time and even before she could finish the search contract, the first target, a perfect 6 VDI for the Equinox…We made the recovery!!!

Betty was stunned that it had happened so quickly.  She admitted to having her doubts after searching so many times, but was ecstatic to have the zephyr blown earring back in her possession. I could definitely see why, as it was a stunner!!!

I love this work!! Anyone who performs it knows just how gratifying it really is.  Thank you to Betty for trusting me with the recovery and to Eric for making the referral.  It was a beautiful morning at the beach and a beautiful story for the books.

Lost Gold Diamond Engagement Band in Plain City, OH. “FOUND”

  • from Newark (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

I received a call about a Gold Diamond Engagement Band lost during while playing volleyball in the backyard. The wedding band stayed on but the engagement band flew off as going up for the ball. They have searched themselves with no luck. We was able to confirm the best time to complete a search. Search and search the area as the net was already taken down and trying to pin point the location of the net was key in this search. After searching and checking all of the area and spots, there was the ring in the grass. She was very happy to have the ring returned to her and now can completed with the wedding band.

Lost Sentimental Gold & Silver Bracelets at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This Bracelet hunt began when I got a text from Fahema who lives on Oahu.  She asked, « Aloha, may you please help me find my bracelets that i lost in Ko’ Olina?  It would be greatly appreciated. »  Fahema wasn’t positive, but imagined the only place could be in Ulua Lagoon as she took a dip to cool off after playing volleyball with friends.  She had placed them in her pocket before swimming and a short time after coming ashore she noticed they both were gone.  I warned her that a snorkeler could probably see them in the clear water but hopefully the over night high tide would cover them in silt.  The area she swam in was about 50 by 25 yards in the water so I fired up the Manticore and started a grid search.  I just hunted this beach the past weekend so it was fairly sterile.  About 20 minutes into the search I got a screaming high tone in thigh deep water and in one scoop there was the Silver Bracelet in the scoop.  I marked the spot with my scoop and yelled to Fahema to come get that one while I continued the search.  I continued out to the deep side of the search then turned around for the next leg.  When I got to the spot where the Silver Bracelet was found I got a nice but growling low tone.  It took two scoops but I was relieved to see the Gold Bracelet in the scoop.  I cupped it in my hand and walked ashore to where Fahema was relaxing.  I told her to open her hand so I could do a drop.  She was obviously relieved to see the most precious of the two in her hand.  Mission accomplished.  Smiles & hugs and much Aloha to Fahema!

Lost – Gold Diamond Heirloom Ring, Ponce Inlet, FL. – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

I had been on the beach all morning when I got a call from June.  She said that her friend

Daphne had lost her grandmother‘s ring at the dog park at Ponce Inlet. I told her I was nearby

and they said they could meet me there in one hour.

 

When June and Daphne arrived, Daphne was very distraught about losing her grandmother’s

ring. They took me to the river and showed me where they had been. I gridded all the entire

area … No luck. It was very hot so I told them they could leave, and I would finish the search

and give them a call if I had any questions.

 

They had only been gone about five minutes when (in my best Columbo fashion) I called June

and asked her when they had noticed the ring was missing. She said they had actually pulled

over in a Truist bank and checked for it on the way home. I told her I was getting nothing at the

dog park and that she might want to go to the bank and check the parking lot. She said it

couldn’t be there because she would’ve noticed it

 

Five minutes later I got a call from Daphne saying they had found the ring in the bank parking

lot…broken but repairable.

 

The ring was not found with a metal detector, but nevertheless… Mission accomplished!!!

White Gold Necklace with Diamond Pendant Lost in the Sand, Found and Returned North Myrtle Beach SC

  • from North Myrtle Beach (South Carolina, United States)
Contact:

This was my second call of the day, and it started with a text from Emma saying, “Hi I saw the website and I lost a necklace. I’m not sure of your pricing. I lost a necklace, it’s very sentimental to me and I will pay anything just to find it again. We’re in North Myrtle. Is there any way we can pay you to help me. Just give me a call back or text messages. Thank you. Have a good one!” I called the number attached to the text to get more details. One of the things she told me was that the necklace and pendant were stainless steel. Emma explained that her mother had gotten her the necklace and that her mother has since passed away. I told Emma I had a slight delay but would be there as quick as I could.

When I got there, I met Emma at the boardwalk to the beach, and we walked out on the beach. Emma told me that she had taken the necklace off and given it to a friend. The friend put it in a hat and set it on the beach. As they were leaving the beach, the friend picked up the hat and put it on his head. At that point he remembered the necklace, but it was too late. The necklace quickly disappeared into the dry sand. They spent a lot of time looking for it with no luck, hence the phone call to me. I started outside the search area, but Emma moved me a little lower on the beach. A couple of grid lines, I hit a solid 10 on the metal detector. Since she said it was stainless steel, I was expecting a signal in the 20s. I moved the sand with my foot looking for the item. Finally, I got a little glimmer of something shiny. I reached down and pulled out Emma’s Necklace and handed it to her. I told Emma that I thought her necklace was white gold instead of stainless steel based on the number I got on the detector and what I was looking at. Regardless of the metal it is or isn’t, Emma got her very precious necklace back and was very happy.

Emma – Thank you for calling me and letting me help find your very sentimental necklace back where it belongs.

Jim

MY BEST RECOVERY, A LOST GOLD & SILVER HOARD FOUND

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Barry who claimed to be eccentric, buried his stash of 30 gold Maple Leafs, 40 Quarter oz Gold  coins, 1500 Silver Maple Leafs,  and various other coins under his patio in boxes and bags, he went to retrieve some of them that he buried shallow on the edge of the patio. After digging for a couple of hours and his hands all blistered, he got a friend with a metal detector to help him locate the coins with no  success. Now he is devastated that they can not be found, he searched the internet and found me, asking if I could assist him. I drove the over 100k to his home and had a lengthy conversation with him, as he told me that he had talked about the coins with his neighbour. I then crawled under his patio with my metal detector not feeling very confident. After crawling around for 20 minutes and digging a few nails I got a fairly decent signal, digging down around 6 or 7 inches I saw a garbage bag and dug around it only to hit a bright yellow monster box that holds silver maple leafs. We were both excited and after detecting and digging  around, I found the bulk of his coins in plastic coin tubes, except the ones we suspect his neigbour found. What a great guy, his intent is to donate the coins to various Children`s Charities.

Lost Kershaw pocket knife, Panama City Beach, Florida…found with a metal detector!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



If you lost something important to you, like a ring or keys, cell phone, pocket knife or pendant in the sand or grass, in the water or even in your car…call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk. I can answer any questions you may have about the ring finders recovery service and I am available day or night. Call or text me ASAP!

Mike and his wife were enjoying their week at a condo in north Florida and somehow he dropped his favorite knife in the sand and it just disappeared without a trace. For the next few days he tried looking for it but the soft sand seemed to have swallowed it up and he pretty much gave up hope of ever seeing it again. My wife and I arrived on Wednesday to spend a few days with friends and of course I had brought my metal detector along and the first evening of our stay I grabbed my metal detector and Xtreme scoop and wandered down onto the beach. I started detecting around the nightly fire pit and that is when Mike and Debbie approached me and Mike told me about his lost pocket knife. I assured him that I would definitely be on the lookout and would let him know if I happened to dig it up. Two hours later and quite a ways down the beach I got a signal that sounded more iron than non-ferros but I chose to investigate none the less and after kicking away a few inches of sand…there was a black pocket knife that had the brand name of Kershaw on the belt clip. That was the exact brand that Mike said he had lost and he could not believe it when I showed him my discovery! Mike’s wife said he carries his knife where ever he goes and has had that knife for many years. It is made right here in America and Mike is carrying it again today!
Again I thank the Lord for helping me find and return Mike’s knife and for giving me the opportunity to be a blessing and being able to meet such a kind and lovely couple!

How can I help you find what you have lost? Even items lost years ago can potentially be found today…if you know the location and the area has not been disturbed too much! Give me a call or call a ring finder near you!

How to Find a Ring Lost off a Balcony .. Pasadena, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)
Contact:


I Find Jewelry lost off balconies or in backyards of private residences ..Mobile Metal Dettecting by Stan the Metal Detector Man .. Call or text. 949-500-2136


*** Steve had recently been given a beautiful gold ring that his father had worn for many years. He had not taken the time to have it properly sized and he has never worn a ring.

Well, after wearing the ring for only a couple weeks, he lost it when he threw a banana piel of his balcony. He was able to feel the ring come off his finger at the time the throw was made. The hillside was full of vegetation and dead leaves, making it nearly impossible to visually find.

Steve found my contact information online. I was able to meet him at his residence in Pasadena, Calif. Shortly after discussing his situation. This was not an emergency because it was a private residence. I could have set up an appointment for later in the week. The ring wasn’t going anywhere.

I try to work with the person’s schedule so they don’t have to take off work or miss an important appointment.

His ring was recovered using my metal detector, completely covered by dead leaves. Probably because he had walked over the area trying to find it before calling me.

Steve was very appreciative, because this was the only thing he had to remember his father who had passed away several years ago.

Please call if you need help or advice on finding you lost keepsake.. Availabev 24/7 if necessary .” I WILL TRY ANYWHERE”.. 949-500-2136
