Metal Detecting Spanish Banks/Volley Ball Court Gold

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I just got home from a four hour water search in a lake in Maple Ridge where I found a lost wedding band for a young man.
I didn’t have breakfast so I made some lunch and fell a sleep soon after.

A few hours later a wake up to a phone call from a man named Scott who lost his wedding band at the volleyball court at Spanish Banks Beach.He got my number from the life guards, I listened to his story and felt it would take no time to find the ring as he had a small area for me to search because he saw the ring fly off his finger into the sand.

I jumped into my car and headed out, I met Scott and he showed me the area and no sooner did I turn on my metal detector… I found his ring!

Scott told me the story about how his mother gave him her fathers wedding band that was sitting in a drawer for 50 plus years… What a sad story but a happy ending!

I love my job!

Golf Course Gold/South Vancouver/Lost… Gold Wedding Band… Reward!!!!

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Today I received an email from a young man who lost his wedding band at Fraser View Golf Course in South Vancouver…Here is his email…
I lost my gold wedding band on Aug 18th at Fraser View Golf course. I am sure that I had it because I was late and still wearing it on the first tee…. my mistake, I never wear it when I play and normally keep it in my car. After the round, I could not find my ring. it is a basic gold band with my wedding date engraved in it (08-31-2003). As you can see my wedding anniversary is coming up and the ring means a lot to me.
I am hoping you can help, in fact I can come out with you to retrace
my steps.

thanks again,

Will

Well we retraced his tracks and eliminated the most likely possibilities and our thoughts are that it could be any where from the first tee to the last. Its a needle in a golf course sorta speak but there is a chance that someone can find it during their walk around the course.

Will is offering a reward if you find it and it means a lot to him, so please keep an eye out for the ring.

It was nice meeting you Will and don’t give up hope as there are lots of great people out there that might find and return your ring!

Thanks so much for the gift certificates to the Cannery! Very kind of you!!

I love my job!

Lost Diamond Earring/Spanish Banks/$200 Reward

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I received a call to find a lost diamond earring this morning and the lady told me it had been lost for over 3 weeks at a dog beach in Vancouver, Spanish Banks. She went into the Ocean to cool down and she felt the earring come off…

Her and her husband came back the next day and searched for hours but no luck, I also had no luck as earrings are the single hardest piece of jewellery to find as there is so little gold on the post. If this was lost in a back yard I’d have a great chance in locating he earring.

The time frame would have something to do with it but most detectors will not get a signal on a solitaire diamond earring… Very little weight which would mean that it could have moved down the beach with the tide over the last 3 weeks.

It’s a half karat Diamond Earring exactly like the one in the picture above…$200 Reward if you find and return it to Liz… Contact me and I will put you in touch with the owner who would be extremely thankful to have it back!

I will go back a do a grid search of the area just encase I might get lucky!

Can’t find them all…I love my job!

Metal Detecting Surrey BC for a lost Silver Bracelet

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I received an email a few days ago in regards to a lost silver bracelet possibly in a pile of grass in this ladies neighbors backyard.
She was about to rent a metal detector and found me under MetalDetectorRental.ca and called to see if I could help her.

I listened to her story and by the sounds of it she wasn’t sure when the bracelet came off, maybe when she was cutting her neighbors lawn.

She recalls that she took the bag of grass that she cut to her neighbors back yard and dumped it on the compost.
When she realized that the bracelet was lost she immediately went back to where she dumped the grass and her and her husband searched but couldn’t find it.

This was a one of a kind bracelet and it meant the world to her! She desperately wanted to find it. After 25 minutes and digging out the newer weeds to get to the grass that she put there a week before I suddenly got a good signal…It was her bracelet!

I love my job! Lost something and want it found?

Lost… Diamond Engagement Ring & Wedding Band/White Rock

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Today I had a search for a lady who lost both of her wedding rings at White Rock Beach. After talking with Ali on the phone I knew the chances of finding her rings were slim due to the fact that it was likely lost on the short grass where she and her family were sitting, making the rings easy to spot.
She had taken them off to put suntan lotion on her kids and put them on the towel she was sitting on, after a while it was time to go and she got up and her son picked up the towel and they left for home.

After around a half hour she realized what had happen and raced back to where they had been sitting to look for her rings…No luck, they were no where to be found. Franticly searching for her rings strangers stopped and helped her look but no one found them.

When I arrived the next day and met Ali and her sister they showed me the spot, I searched the grass and then the small bush area but no luck.

I brought a towel and a couple of rings of no value but ones I would use to do a test with and placed the rings on the towel and asked Ali to pick up the towel like her son would have done. This showed us that the rings didn’t travel far at all and ended up on the grass close to the towel. This would have been very easy for someone to spot.

I believe there are good people in this world still and the person who found the rings is looking for the owner… If you found the rings here is Ali’s contact number… 604-870-8825

I hope your rings find you Ali.

Metal Detecting for a lost gold wedding band on Crescent Beach/South Surrey

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I received a call while I was at work, this young man told me the story about how his wife’s wedding band fell off her finger and into the ocean where they were standing. He said that they searched for 3 hours in knee deep water but had no luck in finding the ring.

The night before I was out searching for a young man’s wedding band at 12 AM and I was a little tired as I just switched to nights for work that day.

I listened to his story and I needed to check the tide chart on my Iphone to see when the next low tide was so I told him I’d call him back.

The next low tide was at 7:59 AM…I would be working to 4:30 AM that morning so I had to decide if I could make it out there…I figured I could drive out there after work and get a few hours of sleep then meet him and find his wife’s wedding band and get a few more hours sleep to wait out the morning rush hour, then go home and get a few more hours of sleep then go to work.

I called him back and we were to meet at 7AM that morning for the search. I drove out to the Crescent Beach area and slept in my car for a bit then at 7AM I met Mohumad.

Mohumad explained what happened that day and that he was sure of the area the ring was lost in, which helps a lot when your searching for something so small. He drove and I followed him to the beach, when we got there the tide was out and Mohumad showed me where he thought the ring would be.

He walked to the top of the beach where there was a big patch of seaweed and walked out towards the water and stopped and said this is the area here!

I started my search and within 20 seconds or so I found the ring! It helps so much when a person doesn’t panic and makes a mental note of the area the ring was lost in because it gives me a great chance to find the ring the next day. I had a similar search at a beach years back and it took me close to 3 hours to locate the lost ring.This was because the person didn’t make a note of the area but just pointed and said out there some where…Thanks Mohumad, it was great meeting you and I’m glad your wife has her ring back!

I love my job!

Metal Detecting for…Midnight Gold/Spanish Banks/Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I’m at work and I get a call from a young man at around 7 pm who was looking to rent a metal detector to find his wedding band at the beach.

We talked for a while and I told him that I didn’t rent out my detectors but I could give him a number to call. That being said if he waited till the next day there could be a chance that the beach machine that cleans the beach could scoop it up and it would be gone forever…

I explained to him that I was working and that I couldn’t get out there to find the ring until around midnight, I told him I’d be happy to come out and find it for him.

The first question was how much do you charge? I don’t charge I replied, I work on a reward bases… only if found…  »I just can’t put a price on someone’s jewellery that has an emotional and sentimental value »

He agreed to meet at the beach at midnight and he gave me the location, after work I headed home to grab my detectors and off to the beach I went.

It was a little before midnight and I met Andrew who was holding a flashlight by the volleyball court where he lost his ring, for a few minutes we discussed the possibilities of where the ring could of come off. He showed me an area he marked off and told me there was close to 20 people helping him search for the ring for over a half hour, but no luck.

I started my grid search of the area and after searching the side of the court that he thought it was in and after 10 minutes I had no ring… I told him its a game of inches and not to worry. I started my second part of my grid search and within 5 minutes a total of 15 I had my first solid signal, I told him that this looks good, I took out a scoop of sand and put my light in the scoop…There was his white gold wedding band!

I got a big smile and I could tell he was very happy, I was thrilled to find it for him…It made my day!…Or night…Midnight Gold!

I love my job!
