Last night I got a call from Lori who is the supervisor at Underwood Family Farms in Moorpark about a lost ring. Lori is also my boss several days a week as my wife and I work during the various festivals the farm puts on throughout the year. This time it is the Fall festival and a recently married young lady had lost her wedding ring somewhere in front of the produce stand while picking up pumpkins.

I told Lori that I would come in early before my 9am shift and detect the area and determine whether or not the ring was there. I arrived a bit before 8am and the farm was already buzzing with activity. Underwood Family farms is the place to be in SoCal if you are looking for a real and unique farm experience and also if you need 1 or a hundred pumpkins for the fall. I immediately began to work the areas in-between and around the hay and pumpkins in front of the produce stand. Pennies, dimes and nickels were everywhere but a gold ring was not. That is until I got around one of the cashier booths. I got a nice, tight 13 signal on my Manticore that was easily distinguishable between the coins. I turned on my pinpointer and located the target and up came the wedding ring. Even though I had to still go to work at the farm my job that day was finished! Dave The Ringfinder with another wedding ring saved!

Sahil called having lost his ring in the sand volleyball court at the beach. This had been given to him, so it had great sentimental value. I was available, so I left to go help him right away.

When I got to the beach, we found each other quickly. Sahil then took me to the area he believed the ring had been lost in, so I got my equipment ready, and began my grid. Well this search did not end quickly, as I went over the entire area he showed me finding a lot of trash metal, but no ring. He then showed me another area he thought might have the ring, more trash metal, but not that one either. Once more there was another possibility, so I began a new grid, and then about 8 passes in on that area, I « struck gold »! There it was in the scoop, a beautiful gold and jeweled ring which I was able to give back to Sahil who was very grateful.

I got a call about a lost bracelet at the beach. Carla had been enjoying her day with a group of friends when she noticed her bracelet missing from her wrist. She and her friends searched all over for it, and then called me. I was available, and left right away to do the search.

I got to the beach and found them quickly. Carla showed me the area they had been in, so I began a grid search in order to make sure all ground was covered. After about 6 passes, and a few pieces of trash metal findings, I was able to find Carla’s bracelet, and what a beauty it was. She and all of her friends were highly excited about the recovery, which made for a great group shot.

Alex called and said that he had lost his platinum wedding ring earlier in the day playing volleyball at the beach. It was night now, but I wanted to assure him I would come out immediately and do a search.

I arrived, and we found each other. Alex then walked me over to the volleyball courts, and showed me where he believed the ring came off. I got ready, and then began my grid of the area. I made about 6 passes, and then heard a good signal through the head phones. I dug with my scoop, shook the sand out, and there was Alex’s ring. I gave it back to a very happy man.

Mike had been playing volleyball at the beach with friends when his wedding ring came off and disappeared in the sand. He was wondering if I would be able to help, and I let him know that I would leave immediately to come and help

When I got to the area, we found each other, and Mike took me over to the area of the loss. He explained to me what he had done to create the loss, so I started my search. Just a few minutes later, I had his ring, and he was just overjoyed to have it back. To see such joy really makes this service fun.

I got a call from Nick who told me he had lost a ring in a neighborhood park, and was not able to find it. This was a ring he had received from his mother, so although being copper the value wasn’t high in monetary worth, the worth in sentimentality was very high.  We worked out a time for me to come out and do a search, and was on my way to help.

When I arrived Nick met me at the gate of the park, and told me this was where the loss occurred. He told me that he had been kind of goofing around, and decided to just make a small toss of the ring onto a small hillside. It wasn’t overgrown, or had a lot of leaves and such, but the ring just disappeared. I searched all around, and when I got to a place where the dirt was a little softer, I found his ring buried there. He was happy to have it back, and I was happy to make his day. I did make a plea to him though, that was please don’t throw your ring around any more, and he assured me he wouldn’t.

It was already dark when I received Jason’s call. He was at the beach with friends having fun when he noticed his ring missing from his finger. He wanted to know if I could help, and I let him know I would leave immediately to help find his ring. He said he and his friends would meet me there.

I got there in the dark, and began walking down the beach to where they said they had been. When I got there no one was there, so I called him to find out if he was around, and he let me know they were on the way. When they arrived he showed me how he had jumped from the lifeguard tower, and when he landed his ring was gone. I began my search where he had showed me, but found nothing. So I began to work out of the area. Then after about 5 more minutes I had his ring, and handed it back to him. It was a ring that was placed on his finger when he was a baby, that’s why it was split. Jason was very happy to have back.

Sonny called me after dark having lost a precious heirloom pendant while playing volleyball at Mother’s Beach in Marina Del Rey. I was available, and let him know I would get there as soon as I could to help him find his lost keepsake.

I arrived a little early, and phoned Sonny to let him know I was there. He saw me in the parking lot, and let me know where he was. I got with him and asked what had happened, and the area of the possible loss. I then got my equipment ready, and began my search. I searched the side of the court he had been playing in first with no luck. I then went to the other side, and halfway into the first pass, a very strong signal rang in my head phones. I dug, and as I was shaking out my scoop, Sonny could hear the clanging of the large pendant, and exclaimed that’s it, he found it. As can be seen in the photo, he is very happy to have back something that means something special to the family.

Yumi Contacted me about some jewelry she lost earlier that day. She had been at the beach, and to « be safe » she told me she took her 3 rings off, and put them in her pocket. The last thing she remembered was that they were jingling in the pocket, and to hear them made her feel better. She and her boyfriend left the beach for Downtown Los Angeles, and then had the heartbreaking realization that everything was missing. It was a little late when she called, but knowing that beach is cleaned by very efficient machines, and other metal detectorists, I told her that I would leave right away in order to have the best possibility of a recovery.

When I arrived it was dark, and I had a while before the police enforced the 10:00 PM curfew removing everyone from the beach. So I got to the area, and called Yumi to make sure I was in the right place, also asking a few more questions as to distance from the marker and such. I worked my way from the top of the slope making a tight grid, and surprisingly not finding much in the way of coins or trash metal. I continued my grid, line after line working away from the slope, until about 25 feet from the slope, and 50 feet from the marker I received a myriad of good signals. I put in the scoop, and got a ring. I was excited now. I moved the coil over again, dug, and another ring, I was pretty sure I had the spot. Scanned again, and this time an earring (Yumi hadn’t mentioned earrings), so I began to wonder. I scanned again, and another ring. I scanned again, and a second earring. That was it for that spot, so I immediately called Yumi and asked if she could identify her rings (I wanted to be sure these were hers). She did correctly ID them, and then I asked if that was it, and she said there were earrings. I told her I had found it all, and we arranged to meet the next day for the return. She was so happy because two of those rings had belonged to her late aunt, and were irreplaceable. Not only that, but she will be going back to her home in Chicago soon, and would have had to leave them here forever. I really enjoy what I do.

I received a call from Sofia who had lost her ring at the beach the night before. We discussed the loss, and after finding out where it occurred my hope was increased thinking we would be able to make a recovery, so I let her know that I would leave right away in order to conduct a search as soon as possible.

We met up at the beach and I walked out with Sofia and her friend Andrew. When we got to the area, Andrew showed me the general vicinity, and Sofia replayed what she was doing to cause the loss. She even told me that she had watched the ring come off of her finger, but was not able to find it. I gathered my equipment, and began my search. After about 8 feet I got my first strong signal, dug, and had Sofia’s Ring in the scoop. I held it up, and Andrew exclaimed, « It only took two minutes ». They were both amazed, because they had searched so diligently the night before. Sofia then told me that her grandmother had given her the ring, so it meant a lot to her. It sure is nice to be able to reunite people to their heirlooms.
