I received a call from Maxim who explained to me that he had lost his car key as he was walking to the water to go surfing about 6:30 in the morning. I got the call about 11:00 AM, and he told me he had been searching for the key all morning. I told him I would be there quickly.

When I got to the location Maxim was waiting for me. I found out that he had lost his only key to his car, so there was really no where for him to go until it was found. He showed me the area where he thought it was lost, and I could see where he had searched by the grid lines in the sand made from his hands and feet dragging in the sand. I set to grid the same area, because he was so sure of where it had dropped, and I knew that sand will move things around when someone does a hand search making an item very hard to find. I did a grid, and then a cross grid; nothing! I proceeded to question more, and decided to grid towards the entrance to the beach. I searched about 10 feet when I had a good hit. I scooped once, nothing in the scoop. I looked at the spot to set the scoop in again when I saw the tip of the key sticking up.

I reached down raised the key, and Maxim could not believe it was where I found it. I told him it happens all the time, people don’t always have the perfect recall we would like to have, so we as « Ring Finders » have to ask a lot of discerning questions in order to help probe the memory. Just so happy to see his smile knowing he was going to be able to get back into his groove.

Valerie Contacted me yesterday about the loss of her wedding ring. I was available, and told her I would be there in 30 minutes. She had taken the ring off so she could go into the water, and when trying to place it in her phone case, it fell into the sand. When she had traveled a little while in the sand towards the water she looked again, and her ring was gone.She started to look in the most obvious place in the sand with her fingers, but the expanse of sand was so great it looked like a hopeless cause. She found me on TheRingFinders.com web site, and gave me a call.

When I got there, I asked my questions trying to narrow down the search area, but when Valerie explained to me what happened, I realized the area was rather large. I began my search where she had begun hers thinking she had the best idea of where the ring might have fallen into the sand. No luck with that, so I kept expanding out from that area all the way back to the area she had removed her ring, about 2 1/2 hours; nothing but a bunch of bottle caps, and a few coins. I then decided to do a cross grid, knowing that sometimes a ring may sound off in a different passing of the detector’s coil over the area. We both knew the ring was there from her experience, so the cross grid was the only answer. About 20 minutes later I got a solid hit in the earphones, and had her ring in the scoop. It was so good to see Varerie’s excitement when I held up her ring as she ran over to receive it. It is such a joy to restore the joy in others. Persistence is the key in some of these searches, so don’t forget to make sure the ground is covered completely when doing a search.

Lost Ring in Sand .. Califia State Beach, San Clemente, CA. .. Found and Returned

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Mike was advised by somebody on the beach to google search TheRingFinders.com to find somebody with a metal detector. That was why I got the call. People around this part of Southern Calif. beaches are getting to know about us.
He was at Califia State Beach searching the sand using plastic baskets to sift the sand with two friends. The initial loss occurred when a towel where he put his ring was picked up dumping the ring in the sand. A few hours later he and his friends had gone to another beach 20 miles north Mike realized his loss. They returned with tools to sift the beach. Finding the exact location was also a problem.
Mike’s friends had to leave, but Mike was there to guide me to the general location. He told me it was a Titanium ring so I was listening for a low tone. We grid searched a 40x 40′ square area with no success. I expanded the area on each side, that’s when I scooped an unexpected tone that turned out to be a Tungsten Carbide ring and it was Mike’s ring.. This has happened to me several times, where the person isn’t really sure what type metal their ring is. It really doesn’t matter because I dig all targets when on a search.
Mike and the other people on the beach that had searched for the ring, were impressed at how well the metal detector worked to find the ring. If you need a plumber, electrician or other professional service call them. If you need a metal detector call or google search  TheRingFinders.com.. We can find it, if it’s there. If not, we can eliminate the area, so you can direct your search to another location.
