Webster Groves Wedding Band

  • from St. Louis (Missouri, United States)

My wife lost her ring in the yard a couple months ago and we had lost hope after another metal detector said it might be a lost cause since our yard had so many random bits of buried metal. We were impressed by Jeremy’s experience and efficiency. Highly recommend! »

Two Small Diamond Stud Earrings Recoveref at San Clemente State Beach

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Another successful recovery after calling a member of the Ringfinders .. Stan the Metal Detector Man .. Call or text for prompt response  24/7 .. 949-500-2136


*** Erin needed help finding a set of two diamond stud earrings. After a quick conversation with him, I believed the loss occurred in a totlot play area. He sent me an address to get me to the place where he could meet me. It was possible to meet him before dark, so I left for the 24 mile drive soon after talking to him.

When I got to the address, it was actually San Clemente State Beach. Erin cleared up my idea that I would be searching a small totlot. He had to walk me out on the main beach. I noticed that he was having trouble finding where he been. He was sure that the earrings had been on his towel and they dropped in the sand when he picked up the towel.

He started me in one area, but soon grabbed me moving me 50 ft. to the south. I’m glad I was using my high frequency metal detector and the earrings still had backings on. ( more metal ) Many times we have a second earring to check our settings are correct for finding small jewelry.

It did take a few minutes to find both earrings. They were more than 15 feet from each other. A big beach area could be a much more difficult search than a small totlot. Erin was very happy and excited to have these sentimental earrings found. They were given to him by his mother who had recently passed away.

A Lost Treasure Found: A Heartwarming Search for a Cherished Ring

  • from Chisago City (Minnesota, United States)

Sometimes, even the smallest objects can hold the deepest meaning. Recently, I was called upon to help locate a sentimental treasure—a wedding ring lost during a joyful moment in the yard.

It all started when I received a message from someone whose wife had accidentally lost her ring while playing with their dog. We coordinated a time for me to visit and assist in the search. Arriving a little earlier than planned, I noticed an area of the yard where the grass had been raked—a sure sign that others had already been combing through for clues.

With my equipment in hand, I began my search, methodically scanning the area. About twenty minutes in, something caught my eye before my detector even alerted me—it was the ring, glinting in the grass! Relief washed over me, knowing this cherished item was found.

As I worked, I couldn’t help but notice the watchful eyes of the neighbors. It became clear that this was no ordinary lost-and-found mission; it was a community effort. The neighbors shared in the anticipation, having spent the previous evening searching themselves.

After finding the ring, I walked back to my car and shared the good news with one of the neighbors, who was just as thrilled as I was. Moments later, my client arrived, greeted by smiles from all around. His joy was palpable as he approached me, asking, “You have something for me?” Handing him the ring, I could see the gratitude in his eyes. His heartfelt thankfulness was echoed by his daughter, who was overjoyed that her mother’s ring was back where it belonged.

This experience reminded me of the power of a community coming together and the significance of sentimental treasures. It wasn’t just about the ring; it was about the memories it represented and the love it symbolized. Helping to reunite this family with their precious memento was truly an honor.

*** Elias lost two pendants in the sand when his gold necklace broke some where near the volley ball court. He had been at a volleyball tournament most the day in Santa Monica, CA.

I was able to meet him an hour after he called me. He had errands to take care of so he left me in the zone of the loss which was probably 3 or 4 volleyball courts.

I spent two hours grid searching before finding the gold eye pendant. The other pendant never showed up..

He met me at 8pm to pick up the eye pendant. I was disappointed that I couldn’t the other pendant, but Elias was happy to have this one returned.

LOST NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY IN THE ALTADENA FIRE FOUND AND RETURNED

  • from Santa Monica (California, United States)

        

Felisha called me and asked if I could help her find some sterling silver Native American jewelry that was lost when her house burned down in the Altadena fire. It was very important to her because her late mother had handed it down to her. I told her that it could have survived. I met her at the site as soon as the weather permitted on the first clear day.  We’ve had a lot of rain lately. I shoveled and sifted after moving some debris and found all six of her silver bracelets and one of her silver chains. I also found a sterling silver pocket knife that belonged to her late  father. The search on the other side of the fireplace was a different story.  There were cat figurines and family china that were important to her but they were buried under plaster and chicken wire walls that had collapsed inward. I broke up the wall with a large crowbar and a shovel to expose the chicken wire. I used an electric cutting grinder to slice through the chicken wire then tossed 20 to 40 pound segments out of the way. I finally exposed some of the figurines, native American pottery and an old collectable tile. This was a labor intensive search. Digging for a couple of hours in a hazmat suit can feel like your in a sauna but the search was successful and Falisha was happy to be reunited with her prized possessions.

 

UCI Student Lost Car Key Fob .. Corona Del Mar State Beach

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 


Call or text ASAP  Stan Ross the metal detector Man .. 949-500-2136 ..Timing is very important for items lost in public areas.. Items lost in yards or other private property may be located after many years. Call for advice about your chances to get your lost items recovered.


*** Marilyn is a student at University of California Irvine, she called me asking for help finding her Toyota electronic key fob lost in the sand. She said it happened at Corona Del Mar State Beach which is in Newport Beach.

She was in class but able to send me a marked up screen shot of the area. She could meet me after her last class in about 4 hours. We didn’t have time for me to ask very many questions. I knew she would soon be there and I could get more details.

When Marilyn met me, I showed her the locations I had already grid searched. My heart sank when she told me the loss happened 3 days before. This is a heavily maintained beach and many people detect this beach.

I could show her where I had already searched. She said it might be a bit further south. Turning left and walking  40ft. in a straight line to start a new grid line. Boom! first target at 40ft was Marilyn’s key fob. She doesn’t know how lucky we were. I’m not sure I would have even tried the search if she had told me the loss occurred three days before.

Key fob searches are difficult they do not always get buried, the sifting machines or beach rake machines pick them up or move them . It always feels good to help someone like Marilyn who was so grateful for my help.

Sentimental Silver Ring Lost in Sand .. Orange County Beach, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Mobile metal detecting at your location.. Stan 949-500-2136

** This was the second time that Erin had called me for help finding a lost item in the sand. The first time was unsuccessful as she had been many other places the day she lost a bracelet. I could only eliminate the beach sand area.

This time Erin was positive her sentimental silver ring was on the beach because she had taken it off to apply sunscreen. Our problem was to get back to the general location. Erin could not meet me till later that afternoon.

I went as soon as I finished talking to her. I had a cross street name and my best clue was she had been near a volleyball court.  It was worth my time , because her ring was recovered in less than an hour. It was my privilege to find and return Erin’s ring. She was so excited and grateful to have her ring returned.

If you need help or advice about how to find your lost ring ? Call or text Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136 .. “I WILL TRY ANYWHERE” with or without you.

LOST SILVER WEDDING RING in FAYETTEVILLE, NC….. FOUND!!!!

  • from Raleigh (North Carolina, United States)

So on my way back home from my Goldsboro, NC recovery, I get a call from a guy in Fayetteville, NC that lost his silver wedding ring in his backyard while cleaning up trees and debris 2 weeks ago.

I make the deture and head his way. Get to his house, we head to the back and I start my search! The ring is not foubd where he thought he lost it and where he had already found his copper ring.

I advise we backtrack his steps. We start from the point of where he had taken them off and placed into his pocket along with his keys. 15-20 feet from there in the middle of the back grassy area just off his back porch, I get strong hit and look down to shiny silver roundness!

Man I really enjoy this hobby and helping people get their priceless treasures back!!
