Simon Cox's Bio

I have been a passionate metal detectotist for over 25 years , I use the Minelab Manticore and Nokta Macro Legend metal detectors both of which can be used underwater to a depth of 3 feet .

Helping others recover their lost valuables is both an exciting challenge and rewarding experience for me .

Every situation is unique and every story is different .

I have helped recover precious items for dozens of people in the UK and also abroad , I’m pleased to be able to use my hobby to reunite lost items with their owners .

For items lost on a beach and it’s shallow waters it’s very time critical , as every tide works against us , the quicker you call the sooner I can help to retrieve it , objects become more lost the longer you wait , and if you use the very helpful “ what 3 words “ apt , at the spot your item was lost , this apt can greatly improve the chances of me being able to recover your jewellery .

Searches are not just limited to lost rings , I have found and returned watches , phones , keys , and earrings .

If it’s metal and I walk over it , it can be recovered.

I can also help estate agents and homeowners before selling their homes , by searching the gardens for forgotten treasures , momentos , long lost toys etc , these are articles that would otherwise be left behind once the property is sold , everything that is recovered is handed back to you .

Similarly , if you have an older property whose garden you would like me to search any artefacts recovered will be returned to you .

You don’t have to have lost something to make use of my services , if you feel your property has something of value hidden or buried in it , let’s look for it , I always say “ if you don’t look you don’t find “ .

All searches are in accordance with the UK treasure act 1996 , and NCMD code of conduct .
