I received a call from Ashley about losing her diamond engagement ring in the sand at the beach. She and some friends had set up their beach tents and towels, she had removed her rings and set them on her towel. Not long after, the lifeguard told them they would have to move their belongings because they were in the area that was used for the emergency vehicles to drive through. During the move Ashley flipped her towel, and one of the rings landed in her bag, but he engagement ring was gone. I let her know I would be there as soon as possible.

When I met up with Ashley she showed me what had happened, and the complete area where the loss was possible. I began my search finding the usual trash metal that is normally found during a search. I went over the complete area, yet did not find the ring. There was the possibility that it was lost in the area where they had moved to, but they would not be able to move their belonging for a while because her friends had small infant children that needed to be kept from the sun, so I sat down and waited until they were leaving so I could search that area as well. Not being able to find the ring there, I decided to cross grid the area in case the ring was turned in a unique way making it hard for the detector to see it, and I expanded the search area. Ashley had to leave, but I told her I would continue the search until I had exhausted every possibility. I continued for another 25 minutes going out of the box when I got the slightest signal from what I believe was a parachuted ring (hanging with gem on top, and ring straight down). I dug, and saw the glimmer of the diamond, and knew Ashley would sleep well that night. I called her, and she came back to receive her ring again. A great and happy day!

Ashley sent the following testimonial:

Hi Steve,
I cannot thank you enough for finding my wedding ring today at the beach. I was so discouraged when I first lost it and then you showed up and were not going to stop until it was found! I appreciate the extra hours you stayed to look. It’s amazing there are such great people in the world. Thank you so much again! We need more people like you in the world.

Ashley

I received a call from Robert the other day. He swims at the beach every day, and usually buries his keys under his towel to keep them safe while he is swimming. The problem that day was that when he was done, he grabbed his belongings, towel, and headed for the showers. When he realized he had left his keys, he went back to find them. He tried to find the exact spot he had bee, but there is so much space it is hard to find the exact spot. I told him I was on my way.

When I got there I found Robert, and he showed me where he believed the keys to be. I could see that he had searched a rather large area, and I knew that he had covered a lot of ground. He started me out where he thought he might have been. I began my search, and began to expand outward as I searched. I found some trash metal, but for the most part the beach was pretty clean. I continued going over the area Robert had previously searched knowing that a lot of times things just move around as people push through the sand. I covered a couple of areas he had searched, and went over to the third area, and began a new search. I made 3 passes, and then received a good signal, dug and lifted Robert’s keys from the sand. He had gone to use the facilities, and was on his way back when I held his keys up. He was very happy to know that he could get in his car, and be able to drive home. I was glad to have made his day!

I received a call from Alina right at dinner time. She had been playing volleyball at the beach, when in the process of hitting the ball, she saw her class ring fly off of her finger. This was a ring her parents bought for her after all of the hard work she put in to graduate from a prestigious university. I let her know that I would get there after I finished my dinner, but she had to leave to pack, because she was moving North in 2 days. I let her know that I would still conduct the search for her if she just let me know where the loss occurred. She then told me she set a marker at the location she had been standing when the ring flew off of her finger, and then left to pack. I knew I had to do this search at once, because this beach is not only machine cleaned by the county daily, it is a highly detected beach as well.

When I arrived at the beach it was now dark as I walked out to the area Alina had described to me. I looked around and found the marker she put in the sand. To my surprise a family had placed a blanket right next to the marker, so I asked them if they wouldn’t mind if I detected near them because I was trying to find something for someone, and they were good with that. I detected all around the area on the other side of the marker from where the family was with no luck, but many bottle caps and foil. I expanded my area a bit, still with no luck. Then as I wanted to detect the other side of the marker the family decided to leave. It was now about 9:30 PM. I began detecting where the family had been, and right where the blanket was laid I found Alina’s ring. She was gone, so we arranged to meet the next day for the return. She was so happy to have the ring back. It just made her day!

Matthew contacted me last night. He had been at the beach earlier in the day throwing a ball for his dog, when after a good toss, he realized his ring was missing. The ring was a bit of a loose fit, so they figured it flew off in the direction of the thrown ball. The ring was a special gift from his girlfriend, who had it custom made for him with special engravings on the sides. I let him know that we should get on the search as soon as possible, so we arranged to meet as soon as I could get to the area.

When I arrived, we met up, and Matthew and his girlfriend took me over to the area of the loss. I could see where they had been searching, and Matthew showed me where he had been standing when he threw the ball, and direction the ball was thrown. I started searching, laying out a tight grid finding bottle caps, and other various pieces of metal, but no ring. I expanded the area thinking he might have thrown it further than he thought finding more bottle caps but no ring. I widened the search area, no ring. I then went back to the starting point, and began a backwards search, and on the first pass, got a booming signal, scooped, and in the scoop was this big beautiful silver ring. I pulled it out, and they were baffled by the fact that the ring was found just behind where Matthew had been standing when he threw the ball. I always tell people that what they lost isn’t always where you think it is. That is why we as Ring Finders can be so effective at locating lost jewelry, it is because we are not emotionally tied to the search, and can think out of the box. A beautiful warm Summer evening!

Jack called last night stating he had been at the beach earlier in the day, and lost his wedding ring in the sand. He had been there with his dogs, and took his ring off to put on sunscreen. Leaving his ring on his towel, he had forgotten about it until after he had left for the day. He went back as soon as he knew it was gone, but was unable to find it. Finding my number on The Ring Finders site he called, and we arranged to meet back at the beach, so he could show me where he had been sitting to narrow down the search area. Calling right away helped insure a recovery, because TIME is the enemy of a successful search, so if you have lost something call right away.

When we arrived at the beach, we met up, and Jack took me down to the area of the loss. I then began my litany of questions in order to narrow down the search area. After finding out all the information I needed, I began my search, which after about 2 minutes, resulted in a successful search. The questions help us to help you, so I am thankful when the person I am trying to help is patient while I ask. Anyway, I got a good signal, scooped, and in my scoop was a gold ring, which I held up, and asked Jack if he recognized. He looked at it and was able to read an identifying inscription on the inside of the band. He was very happy as he and his wife were getting ready to celebrate their second wedding anniversary. A great night’s sleep was ahead for sure!

I was in a meeting when Patrick called me about a search for his wife’s wedding ring. They were out celebrating their 2nd wedding anniversary the day before, when with a flip of the wrist her ring flew off of her hand, and into the soft sand to disappear. After some futile searching they went home, I am sure thinking this token of their love was gone forever. The next day Patrick found my number on The Ring Finders web site, and gave me a call. I told him that I would be able to do the search in the evening because of the meeting. He was not going to be able to meet me there, but gave some pictures of where the loss occurred, as well as a picture of what the ring looked like, and I told him I would let know if I was able to find the ring.

I got to the beach, and because of the pictures Patrick provided, was able to find the exact area of the loss. I set up and began my search. I found a few pieces of trash metal like tin foil and bottle caps. On my 4th pass I got a good signal, and dug. In my scoop was a real nice gold and diamond ring, but when I looked closer, I realized it was different than the picture he had sent to me, so I continued to search the area looking for his wife’s ring. I finished the search, and then called Patrick to let him know what had happened. I let him know I had found a ring, but not like picture he had sent me. He told me that he had found a picture on the internet of what he thought the ring looked like, and would ask his wife if she had a picture, and would send it to me. When I received the picture I realized that I had found the right ring, and let him know we had success. We arranged to meet the next day for the return. It was nice meeting them and being able to give this meaningful item back to them, and see their joy.

I got an emergency call from Alex last night; she had lost her car key in the beach sand. It was about 9:30 PM, and she had her children with her, and needed to be able to get home, so I let her know that I would be leaving for the search immediately.

When I got there they were waiting for me, and Alex took me out to where she believed the loss occurred. I began my search, and found numerous pieces of trash metal, and one house key, but not her car key. It was then that her children came down to beach, and showed us that we were searching about 60 feet off target. I went to where they showed me to search, and began another search. I worked it out one way with no key, and then worked out the other way, and after 2 passes, got a good shallow signal, scooped, and by 11:00 PM had her key.  Alex was very happy to be able get her children home. It was a great night!

Yesterday Willy called and asked if I could help him find his ring. He had been with friends at the beach having a fire a few days earlier, when he touched the hot fire grate. As soon as the pain registered he flipped his hand with a natural reaction. Unfortunately the ring his girlfriend had given him flew off his finger and was gone. We arranged to meet at the spot when he was available, which was later in the afternoon.

I got there at the appointed time, and Willy took me down to the beach and showed me where and how the loss occurred. I began my search realizing there were a whole lot of bottle caps, and other unwanted metal discarded in the surrounding area. I dug everything in order to not allow any masking to hide what I was looking for. I searched all around the area finding a bunch of trash metal but no ring. Willy’s friend suggested trying in an area that was in a completely opposite direction of where the loss might have occurred, and I went over to try, because looking out of the box sometimes is the road to a recovery. The ring was found in that new area not long after I started searching there, and I was able to give it back to Willy, who was real joyful about the recovery. A wonderful recovery for sure!

Anthony called last night about 7:30 PM asking if I would be able to help him find his wedding ring that he lost earlier in the day. I don’t think he was ready for my answer when I told him that I would meet him at the spot of the loss the same night. I believe it surprised him that I was available at the moment. I explained that time was the enemy of a successful recovery, and he asked if he could call back. I also let him know that the fact that it was dark now would not hinder the search. He did call back, and we arranged to meet at the beach at about 9:00 PM.

When I arrived I let Anthony know, and we found each other. He then explained that he and some friends were playing football in the sand, and he realized his « tight fitting » ring was gone when they got back to the car at the end of the day. When he took me out to the area, he showed me a large section of beach to search, and I explained that the process is slow and deliberate in order to not miss anything. I then began at one end of the area working my way back in a nice even grid to the other end of the loss area. The thing that made the search easier was that there was very little metal trash. I did get a few bottle caps, a bit of aluminum, and some tin foil, along with some coins but not enough to slow the search down much. The clean beach allowed me to cover the sand quicker than I expected. After about 1 1/2 hours I got a good sweet gold sound in the head phones, dug, and in my scoop was Anthony’s ring. I just held it out for him to his surprise. He did let me know that he was getting a bit discouraged because I was finding things, but not the ring. I find this happens a lot because the expectation level is very high in the beginning, but wanes as the things that are dug up are not what we are looking for. It is then that with experience I continue on without the discouragement, because I know that the process has to be completed before moving on to other options. I was able to give Anthony back his token of commitment given him by his wife on that special day, which made his day much happier.

Ammo Box Time Capsule in Palos Verdes, CA…Found After 8 Years of Being Buried

Shawn called me asking if I could help him. It was a unique request, he and his friend had buried an ammo box (time capsule) full of their personal things 8 years prior, and now decided to dig it up. His friend had gotten very ill, so Shawn thought it would be something that could bring a bit of light back to him if he brought this memory to his friend. Also he was doing some construction in the area, and thought the time capsule might be covered, making the recovery impossible, so he wanted to get I found. We arranged a time when we were both available to do the search.

When I arrived, Shawn took me to the area, and showed me where he believed the box had been buried. It wasn’t a very big area, maybe 8×8 feet, but the ground was very hard and rocky, so a general dig would have been difficult. I tried one detector, and was receiving too much interference from surrounding metal, then switched detectors to be able to pin point the buried box better. I found one signal that was intermittent, so I continued to look. I then found another better signal under an earthen ledge. Shawn seemed to think the second signal might have been closer to the area where the box was originally buried, so he began to dig there. He carved out a few inches of the ledge with no box, so I checked again, but this time checked the depth range on the detector. It showed that he needed to go in about 9 to 10 inches, so he continued to dig. He finally hit something hard and metallic, and figured he found the box. He dug a little more finding that it was the box. Shawn then called his children and their friend over to finish the dig so as to include them in the excitement of finding « buried treasure ». It was fun to see their excitement as they dug out the time capsule, and then opened it up. I am sure that Shawn’s friend will also find some joy in seeing this item he and his good friend had participated in burying together. This is truly a fun service to be a part of!
