Lost white gold ring “bubbles” has been found in Perth park
Vicky called me a couple of days ago asking for help to find her white gold ring that she thought was lost at her local park and playground. The ring was a wide band with a nice “bubble” design stamped onto the outside of the ring. Quite a few people had searched the area but unfortunately the ring was no where to be seen. They had also put a notice up in case anyone had picked up the ring.
I spent about 30 minutes detecting the thicker grassed areas, whilst eyeballing the flatter ground but was only rewarded with 5 cent coins. There was a small sand play area that I also hunted but it was clear of signals so I moved back towards the grassed areas but still no luck. In the mean time, Vicky’s Mum continued to look for the ring by scouting the ground.
Because the area was generally flattened grass, the ring should be easy to spot by eye but this was assuming that no one else had pocketed the gold ring.
I decided that I would check the sandpit again so I ran the search coil closer to the stone wall this time and quickly got a nice solid beep from the machine…..expecting another 5 cent coin, I was thrilled to see the glint of a silver/white gold ring with the “bubbles” etched into the ring.
I casually wandered back to where Vicky’s Mum was still scouring the grass and informed her “I just don’t think you will find it there…..because…..of this” and I opened my hand to reveal the ring in the palm of my hand. I really enjoy that part !!!
Thanks for contacting me and it was great to have another successful hunt.
All the best,
Tony.

Lost 18k wedding ring has been found at City Beach, Perth
I was trawling through the Lost & Found section of the “Gumtree” which is the equivalent of something like Craigslist. I keep an eye out for rings and jewellery that has been lost at beaches and parks.
Donna had posted an article about her husband’s lost gold wedding ring at one of Perth’s local beaches. I gave her a call and she gave me a good description of the lost zone.
City Beach is a popular beach but I know through experience that it is a hard beach to search due to heavy waves and deep, deep sand in the water that just never seems to shift. Anyway, I told her that I would give it a go as conditions were looking really good for water hunting with hot weather, strong offshore winds that knock the seas flat and help push the water out on a low tide.
I headed down to City Beach this morning not knowing what the sand would be like until I got in the water. Sure enough, the sand was quite mushy but there were a few depressions that were packed down with shells and heavier gravelly sand. I decided that my best chance was to hunt the low areas and hope the ring had been washed into one of them. After some time without a beep from my White’s metal detector, I managed to hear a slight threshold rise and a yellow flash from the LED on top of the detector. I estimated that the ring was about 1 foot down into the seabed. It took me some time to finally get the target into my scoop and after all the sand and gravel had washed from my scoop, there was a lovely two-tone gold ring showing for my efforts. I quickly checked the inside of the band for the engraving “colourful” and yes it was there! Another day or two and the ring would have been out of range for sure.
To her relief and happiness, Donna now has the ring back in her possession. I think her husband is in for a surprise as he currently doesn’t know it has been found.
Donna…..maybe you can add to the “comments” section and let us know of the outcome.
Thank you for letting me find you ring and trusting my phone call out of no-where !
Tony.
Here are some pictures and a “dry” video after I had found the ring.
Lost Ring Found in Larkspur, Marin County
Lost Wedding Ring Found in Larkspur
Wayne contacted us a few days ago to say that his wife Rosie had lost her wedding ring while gardening. She’d been pulling weeds, amending the soil, and planting new plants when she discovered the ring was missing. This was strange, because the ring fit snugly on her finger, and had never come off before. They had tried using a metal detector, but couldn’t find the ring anywhere.
When we arrived, Rosie showed us the front garden plot. It wasn’t large, perhaps 30 feet by 2 feet. We were concerned about whether our larger metal detectors would work, because there were railroad ties forming the front border of the plot, and a wall along the back side, and both contained screws and other embedded iron fasteners.
So we started by scanning the plot quickly with a handheld metal detector called a pinpointer. We found about a dozen nails and sprinkler parts, but no ring. Now we knew the top layer of soil was mostly clear of metal, but we still had the screws along the front and back to contend with.
We scanned the bed again with a larger metal detector set to discriminate out, or ignore, most iron. This is a tricky process, because if you tell the detector to discriminate out too much iron, you will lose the ability to find smaller gold targets like rings. But we had to be able to ignore those pesky screws.
It worked. About 5-6 inches deep in the soil, buried under one of the new plants, we found the ring. It’s a beauty, inset with black diamonds, one of the most unique rings we’ve recovered. Rosie was very happy to get it back.
If you lose your ring, necklace, earring or other jewelry in the San Francisco Bay area, give us a call. We cover Marin County, San Francisco, San Mateo County, Santa Clara County and the East Bay.

Lost gold and sapphire ring has been found in Perth
Caroline contacted me recently via TheRingFinders. She had lost a very sentimental ring that belonged to her mother who had passed away last year.
The gold and sapphire ring was lost about 9 months ago in her back yard. Caroline thinks she was hanging out washing at the time when the ring disappeared. This scenario is all too common with wet fingers and the shaking of damp clothes sending rings flying anywhere.
Caroline has to vacate the house as soon as possible and the thought of leaving without her mother’s ring was weighing heavily on her.
With winter finished and warm spring weather here, the green grass was quite thick and knee high in places. I started a systematic grid search at the far end of the yard and proceeded to flatten the grass down and sweep very slowly with only iron discriminated out. The ring was quite small with three sapphires so no signal could be ignored with fear of leaving it behind.
About 45 minutes later, I was literally down to my last few seconds of searching the back yard and was resigned to the fact that the ring wasn’t going to be found and this is something I really hate. One last crisp signal was heard and I carefully dig into the damp grass…….a glint of gold shone in the bright sunshine and I quickly grabbed the partly muddy ring. Caroline wasn’t around so I quickly gave it a rinse under the tap. Caroline came down the back steps asking if she could move some items that were impeding my search. I informed her that I had searched the back yard thoroughly and there was “no need to move any items……because I have just found your ring!”
To say that Caroline was beyond happy is an understatement. The reaction on her face was what makes this job so satisfying.
Thank you Caroline for your generous reward and wishing you all the best in the future.
Tony.

Lost/Recovered 14kt Gold Diamond Engagement Ring Delaware Seashore State Park Bethany Beach, Del.
On 07/31/11 @ 10:19 am, I received a phone call from a young lady who had lost her 14kt Gold Diamond Engagement Ring on the Beach at the Delaware Seashore State Park Bethany Beach, Delaware. The ring slipped off of her finger and fell into the dry sand while she was applying suntan oil. The sand had been searched for about one hour without any luck before I received the phone call. I arrived at the beach and found that the area of the lost ring had been marked with beach towels. I began my search and with three swings of the detector I received a familiar gold tone. I used my sand scoop to carefully recover the ring and as the sand filtered through my scoop the ring appeared. The young lady gave a cheerful yell as she said “He’s got it, I see it!”. Another great recovery!
