Phil contacted me after losing his car key. He had gone surfing, and buried his key under his towel at the beach, but when he left, he grabbed his belongings and went to the car only to find out he left his key behind. He was able to get back to the approximate area of the loss, but all the sand looks the same once you leave, and he was unable to find his key. I let him know I would be on my way for the search.

When I got there I met up with Phil, and he took me to the area of the loss. I could see that he had been searching the area by dragging his feet through the sand, so I knew the area to begin the search. I went over the whole area collecting things such as bottle caps, tin foil, and pull tabs from aluminum cans, but no key, so I began to expand my search area. I went closer to the water, but no key, and then began working my way away from the water. When I was right next to a couple of young ladies who had set their towel after Phil had been there I got a good signal, dug, and lifted up a Zip Lock bag which Phil immediately recognized; it was his key. Phil was very grateful to have it back, and it nice to make his day.

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!

Pam called me regarding her lost wedding ring. We talked, and she told me she had lost it at the beach 2 days before, and my heart dropped, because time ALWAYS works against a successful recovery. I then began my litany of questions, and as she described where it was lost, my hopes of a recovery buoyed. We arranged to meet at the beach where she would take me to the area of the loss, and I was on my way.

When I arrived Pam met me, and took me out to the beach to show me the area. When we got there I could see that the total area was not big, but she said that there was also another spot if this one was not successful. I began my search right where she said she had put her chair. She had been sitting there pulling her sunblock gloves on and off, and suspected that is the reason the ring came off. As I searched Pam went out and looked out over the water. I found a couple of bottle caps, and pull tabs before getting a strong double beep in the headphones. I put in the scoop, and raised it up with a huge beautiful diamond ring in it. Pam had not described it to me before I began, and I had no problem knowing that this beauty was her ring. I said out loud that it must be a beautiful ring, and she turned to see me holding it up for her. Pam was stricken with unbelief, that ring was found, but overcome with happiness. It was great to experience her joy, and be able to return a ring she had had for decades, and thought was gone forever. What a wonderful day!

Pam sent the following testimonial:

Dear Ringfinders,

I just want to acknowledge the professionalism of Steve Smith of Ringfinders.
From the moment I reached out to him I knew this man was a professional.

His care in asking the right questions. His ability to arrive quickly. His compassion and quiet fortitude in his search.

I would call him an angel. I had lost my wedding ring and I had all but lost hope of recovery. I believed it would be a real miracle to find my ring after 3 days lost at the beach. He found it in 5 minutes! It was completely miraculous.

Steve is a the real deal. A truly nice person wanting to help others. What a great job!

So grateful to have met this wonderful person!

When Rosie contacted me, she was down on the beach going over the sand where she had been the evening before. She had dropped her iPhone without realizing it, and now was trying to find it. She asked if I could help. I asked her to look at the sand, and tell me if it looked smoothed out, and she said it was. I could tell from her description, that the machines had already gone through, and informed her that the possibility of a recovery was very dismal. She then told me that her Find My iPhone app was showing it still there, so I asked her when was it last updated because it will still show even if it was last updated the day before. She told me that the last update was just 2 minutes ago, and I told her she has to be one of the luckiest people, and let her know I was coming right away, and to not let the machines come through the area again.

When I arrived we found each other, and she showed me where she believed the phone was lost. I could tell the machines had gone through, but they left a ridge of material in the area the phone was lost. I began the search where Rosie had been looking, and then began looking in the ridge of trash. There was a lot of trash metal that I found, but no phone. I then began expanding the search zone. I continued expanding the zone, finding more trash metal, and then I found the phone way outside of the search zone. The phone was actually moved by the machine, but not picked up by it. Rosie was very happy to have it back, and I was happy to be able to help!

Alex contacted me because he and his wife were down on the beach, and during the movement of their beach chairs, his ring disappeared. We discussed what had happened, and I asked the many questions I normally ask to try to understand the conditions of the loss. I was able to go immediately, to insure the recovery was made.

When I arrived Alex met me, and took me to where the ring was lost. When we arrived his wife Nora was waiting. She had secured the site, so no one else laid out their towels over the ring. They were there celebrating their 2nd wedding anniversary, and to have this loss happen was somewhat devastating. They showed me what happened, and where they had been sitting explaining where they believed the ring to have gone. I set up, and began my search. One pass, one scoop, and the ring was recovered. It was a little off of where they believed it to have gone, but in the general direction. They were so happy to have the ring back, so they could enjoy the rest of their anniversary celebration. A wonderful day!

John called me about his wedding ring that he had lost at the beach the day before. We talked, and I let him know that the county cleans this beach usually daily, and that if they had, the possibility of a recovery was going to be diminished. He wasn’t sure exactly where on the beach the ring was lost, because he had taken it off and put it in the pocket of his chair so he could go in the water, and it wasn’t until he had packed up everything and left the sand that he remembered the ring was gone. He gave me the area (he was not going to be able to be there to meet me), and I let him know that I would do the search as soon as I could get to the beach.

When I got to the beach, I looked out over the sand, and my hope was lifted. It looked like the cleaning machines had gone over only the towel line at the high tide line. I began my search going all the way into the wet sand to make sure the ring had not fallen off in that area. I was not able to find it in the slope area, so I moved my search closer towards the bike path, and after one pass in the grid, I got a great signal, dug and had a chunky gold ring in the scoop. I took a picture of it and sent it to John, who when he saw it said, « That’s it! Holy cow. » We were able to meet a short while later in order to make the return, and John was very grateful. It was nice to make his day!

Diamond Stud Earrinng Lost in the Sand at Manhattan Beach…Found and Happily Returned.

I got a call from Christy regarding her friend Erin. Erin had been surfing, and when she came out of the water, she removed her wetsuit causing her diamond stud earring to come off of her ear, and into the sand. Stud earrings are one of the most difficult items to find because there is such a small amount of metal attached to them. We arranged to meet, and I set off to do the search.

When I arrived at the beach, I looked for her, but there were a number of people out on the sand. I asked her to let me know where she was, and she began waving her arm. What I saw disheartened me a bit. She was standing in a group of no less than 30 people, mostly children moving around, and I began to think that the earring might have been stepped on and pushed out of detecting range. Erin had the other earring, so we put it in a ziplock bag, and placed it on the sand. When I tested the earring with my detector the furthest I could get from it and still detect it was about 2 inches, so I knew to find it, it needed to be close to the surface. As I began my search, everyone began to leave, and then as they were almost gone, Christy drew a circle of about 20 feet around the area where she believed the loss to have occurred which seemed rather large for such a small item. I worked slowly checking every faint signal I heard, and laid out a grid on the whole area. After, I began a cross grid, in order to not miss the earring because it might have been turned a different way. Then right in the middle of the circle I heard another faint signal, and moved some sand to check again. The signal came in stronger, so I moved a little more sand and rechecked. Now the signal was strong, so I dipped in my little scoop, and there in the bottom was the earring. I let Christy and Erin know it had been found, and Erin asked her husband to come and get it. He was reluctant to have his picture taken with the recovery, so He took one of me. Then I told him he might want to buy a lottery ticket because the odds of a recovery were so slim. Another great 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!

I got a call from Brian letting me know that there had been a ring loss at the beach the evening before. He and his wife were visting from Northern California, and were ready to go home. He had put his wife’s rings in his shirt pocket ,and then proceeded to play beach tennis, not thinking about them being lost. When he was done, and they had moved to a different location, he realized they were gone. Knowing that this beach is cleaned very well, I let him know that I would come as soon as possible.

When I got there, and Brian showed me the area, I could see that he had gone over the whole area with sifters, that drag through the sand, yet was unable to locate the rings. I then began to search where he had been sitting, and then towards where they had moved to. It was then that Brian encouraged me to look in the court first. I went back and began a grid in the court. After 2 passes got a good signal, and dug the diamond studded wedding band. Just 3 feet further out popped the engagement ring, a real beautiful set to be sure. When I showed Brian he was so happy because they were supposed to leave that morning to go home back up North. Well now they could go, and Brian was no longer in the « dog house ». A wonderful morning!

Darren called; he had been at the beach with his family celebrating an anniversary, and had removed his ring to enter the water, putting it in a bag. When they moved everything to leave and got to the car he realized the ring was missing. They went back and conducted a thorough search of the area, with no luck. I told him I would be there as soon as I could make it, and he agreed to meet me when I arrived to show me the area of the loss.

When I arrived we met up quickly, and went directly to the search area. I could see that there had been an extensive search because of the grid marks in the sand. I began my search, and found that the area was very clean from metal debris. I found one bottle cap, and right after got a good signal digging up a nice chunky gold ring. I held it up, and Darren was totally surprised, because it was right in the middle of their grid search. He wanted to give me a hug, but because of COVID stood down. Needless to say he was overjoyed to have his ring back, but did not want his picture taken. A great day!
