Got a call about a lost ring, so I headed back to the beach! He was brushing sand off his hand and the ring went flying off. Within a few minutes of getting to the location they sent me, I was able to dig it up! They had already left to go back home so the next day I put it in the mail! So glad I could help! God Bless!!!

Dale recently lost his precious wedding band when it fell into the sand as him & his wife were trying to enjoy the day at Del Mar Beach. They were smart & stayed put until finding my contact info online. I didn’t waist anytime knowing this popular Ca beach is cleaned daily by droves of newbie metal detector enthusiasts. Being a local in North County San Diego I was able to get there promptly. It was a small search area & I recovered Dales ring quickly. He was relieved as you can see in the photo I saved the day!
Don’t wait too long,,Thar’s Pirates routinely raiding the beaches for treasures & Youtube Content. Items lost in the sand do not stay there long these days!
On Tuesday at 5 pm, I got a call from Klint asking if I could help find a ring in the dry sand. The ring had been placed in the cup holder of a chair, forgotten until the chairs were folded up and slung over a shoulder. The ring quickly disappeared in the soft sand.
I told him I needed to run by the house and get my gear and would be on my way. About 5:15 I sent him a text saying I was on my way and would be there in 13-14 minutes.
When I arrived, Klint was waiting for me in the parking garage, and we made our way out to the beach. He showed me the 10X10 foot area and I started a north/south grid. Shortly after I started my grid, Klint’s son Johnny and Johnny’s girlfriend Addy showed up. At that point I learned I was looking for two rings, one was a Rose Gold ring, and the other was a silver-colored signet ring. I was a little out of the search area when I got a strong signal and looked down and saw a piece of the signet ring sticking out of the sand. As I reached down and picked it up, Johnny spotted the Rose Gold ring within inches of the signet ring and again partially sticking out of the sand. He reached down and picked up that ring. An instant smile and a sign of relief came across Addy’s face. We had another happy ending to a near sad situation.
Johnny and Addy – I wish you all the best.
Klint – Thank you for calling me and allowing me to help find Addy’s lost treasures. Enjoy your vacation.

This little adventure started Monday evening, June 14th, when my wife sent me a screen shot from the North Myrtle Beach FB page saying in part, “Lost men’s white gold wedding band, in shallow water near 15th Ave South NMB. Please contact me if found. Thank you!” I looked up the post to see if I could get any more details and noticed 3 or 4 comments on there to contact me. I also left a comment saying, “If I can help, please call me” along with a link to my ring finder blog page to show her I was legit. I also sent her a message with the same information and added that low tide was in about an hour, and this would be the time to search. Roughly two hours later I got a message on my business suite saying, “Hi, my husband lost his wedding ring today in the waterfront of Carolina reef in NMB – wanted to see if you are able to help locate it/now your service works. Thank you so much in advance.” I responded to her message and also asked her to call me; it’s so much faster and clearer than texting back and forth. She called and I got the details and told her I could be there in 15 minutes.
When I arrived, I met Kelly and her husband, Ed as they came out of the elevator in the parking garage. This was the perfect scenario for losing/finding a ring lost in the ocean. He had lost it between 3:30-4:00 pm, which was within 30-45 minutes of high tide and was between knee and waist deep water. He had been playing catch with his daughter and while reaching to catch the ball, it hit his left hand knocking the ring into the ocean. When I got there it was a little over an hour after low tide, so I had a lot of the beach in the suspected search area that was just wet sand. Kelly and Ed put me in the area they knew was where he lost it. I started an east/west perpendicular to the beach grid search. On my 6th or 7th line I got a solid 18 on the Nox 800. This was a little higher than I expected for a man’s white gold wedding band, but I was confident I had found his ring. Dug a scoop of sand out and laid it on the beach, drug my foot over the pile to spread it out, and saw just a little sliver of Ed’s ring sticking out of the sand. I reached down and picked it up, shined my head lamp on it and said something like, “here’s your ring.” They both were kind of frozen; I don’t think they thought there was much chance of finding their ring, especially in the dark. They were excited, shocked, and very grateful all at the same time. I love doing this!!!
Kelly and Ed – thanks for letting me help find your lost treasure. Enjoy the rest of your vacation and stay safe.

Corey called me around 4:45 pm on Sunday, asking if I could help find his wedding band he had lost. The first question I always ask is, “was it lost in the dry sand, wet sand, or in the water.” He responded, “Dry sand.” This was the second dry sand call of the day, which I like – A lot!! I ask him where he was at, and he told me the resort name in Myrtle Beach. I told him I’d be there in 20-25 minutes, grabbed my Nox 800 and was on the road.
When I got to the resort and made my way out on the beach, I called him. He told me he was in a white hat, and I saw him waving. As I got to the spot, I noticed one of the ladies in his party on her hands and knees searching for the ring. As I got closer, I told her she was wasting her time. Corey showed me the 2X6 foot area and told me that he was moving stuff out of a child’s playpen and noticed the ring had come off. I turned my machine on and jokingly said “20 seconds.” Tungsten rings usually are 18 on the Nox, so I knew what I was looking for. A couple of steps to the left and I got a strong 22 but showing too deep to be a ring lost within the last hour or so. That signal turned out to be a Yeti cup sitting in one of the chairs. I turned around and scanned the area around the playpen. Two swings and I got the 18 I was looking for. Scooped it out of the sand, shook the sand out and got the rattle of his ring in the scoop. He looked so relieved and said his wife was up in the room upset. They still have almost a week on vacation, so this will be a great vacation now.
Corey – Thanks for trusting me to help find your lost treasure. Have a great vacation.

I received a text message this morning from a young lady who said her husband had lost his ring at third beach in Stanley Park, this time of year these beaches get detected on a regular basis, day and night. My first question was, did you lose it by a log? his reply was no it was closer to the seawall, which is a great thing, because most people detect all around the logs.
This gave me hope I cook the set up a time to meet at the beach and I did a little rescheduling for another search that was at least an hour and a half drive away from where this young man had lost his ring. I knew I had to go to this one first due to the high traffic area he lost it in.
After meeting the young man at the beach and hearing the story on how the ring was put on a chair, then the chair was moved a few feet over, it wasn’t until later he realized his ring was gone. Good luck, trying to find it in a desert of sand. His wife went home and found me online and text me for help, the rest was history. Fortunately, they marked the area and the search took less than a minute to find his beautiful ring and that wonderful smile. I love my job.!!!!

On Sunday, at 12:45 pm, I got a call from Connelly asking if I was available to help find his wedding band on Ocean Isle Beach, NC. My first question was, “dry sand, wet sand, or in the water?” He replied, “In the dry sand,” which is a blessing when you don’t have to get in the ocean. I asked where on Ocean Isle and he replied next to the pier. I told him I’d be there in about 30-45 minutes. Grabbed my Equinox 800 and was on my way.
When I arrived, I met Connelly in the parking lot of the Inn they were in front of on the beach. As we were walking out on the beach I asked him for details. Basically, they were setting up their little spot and he noticed his ring had fallen off. We got to the spot, and I met his wife, Stephens. Connelly showed me the 3 x 5-foot area the ring should be in, and I asked him what type ring it is. He stated yellow gold and 14k. Turned on my machine and looked at him and Stephens and said, “Under a minute.” With yellow gold, I was expecting a VDI (visual display number) in the high teens, around 17-19. Two steps and I got a banging 20, dug it up, shook the sand out of the scoop and heard the rattle of his ring. Handed him his ring and got an instant smile on both his and Stephens’ face. Vacation was back on track. Stephens told me he’d only had the ring for 2 months, so now they have another chapter for their story of their rings. I asked how they found me, and Connelly said that Stephens is a good friend of a repeat customer, Cori I’ve had. Stephens had text Cori and told her about the lost ring and Cori told her to call me.
Cori – Thank you!!
Connelly and Stephens – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure.

Received a text from Hope late this afternoon about having lost her silver ring while swimming with her three young kids yesterday. This ring has immense sentimental value as it was given to her, from her fiancé, whom suddenly passed away last year. We met at the lake within the hour and both went in the water where she estimated having dropped the ring while playing with her kids. Although there were many signals, we were able to reunite her with her precious ring within 40 minutes or so. She was extremely happy and surprised to have her ring back on her finger. One of my most favorite recoveries thus far. Life is good.

Saturday July 6th, I was referred a call to help find a wedding ring lost at a popular Volleyball court on a Ca beach. Timing was urgent on this being a well known beach where multiple Novelists metal detectorist’s are every night & morning searching to score Gold or even Content for their YouTube channels!
I sailed there on the freeway just after we spoke, The only trouble was parking on this busy day,,That was the only tough search I had after 3 laps around…
Finding his wedding ring buried in the sand was easy,,Even with a quick adjustment to combat EMI noise that makes detectors chatter rendering them useless,,I also knew the signal to focus on that matched Tungsten rings from experience. Right off the bat starting my first grid search Lap I heard it buried in the sand! He was thrilled to have his ring back knowing it could of been gone forever.
