*** Dennis had lost his gold wedding band of 70 years. He had been doing work on his landscaping in the front of his home in Westminister , CA.  Later that evening while at the dinner table he noticed that his 70 year old wedding ring was missing. Both he and his wife were upset about the loss.

After a week of searching inside and outside the house, Dennis believed the most likely place the ring could be was in a very dense 7 ft. high bush next to his garage. Searching visually had limitations. He asked me to search this bush believing it was the only place he had not searched well.

Dennis was so sure the ring was in that bush, said it was the only place he wanted me to search. I was going to bring a battery operated leaf blower to my tools. Also, it sounded like I would be using handheld pinpointer ( probably on an extension stick). The vegetation may be too thick to use normal metal detector.

The bush was very thick and I agreed with Dennis that this could be a place the ring could be hiding. After over an hour of thoroughly search the suspected bush, I asked Dennis where else he had been that day the ring was lost. He pointed to a planter with a small ornamental tree and a few sparse plants. The rest is history, yep, it was a Boom! The ring was actually visible under one of the plants. Yes! the plants he had searched through thoroughly before I came with my tools. There is a chance that the leaf blower freed the ring from the branches or leaves. Another case where it’s hard to know what really happened.    

Both Dennis an his wife appreciated the recovery of their ring he has worn 70 years of their marriage.

Gold Ring Lost off Boardwalk at Laguna Main Beach, CA. Found During Nighttime Search

*** Lost Ring calls at the beach seem to come after people have spent hours looking for the ring. Sometimes the delay of contacting an experienced ringfinder is because they returned home where they could go online to get information about buying or renting a metal detector. Many calls come after dark.

Steve and his wife, Li had been walking the boardwalk at Laguna Beach, CA. Li dropped her gold ring near the edge of the wooden boardwalk. She wasn’t sure if it had fallen in the sand or that the ring fell into the cracks between the boards. The way the boardwalk is constructed, there is no access under the walkway. Hopefully the ring didn’t drop, through the cracks.

Most people don’t understand how a metal detector works. Before beginning the grid search, I told them that I could only search the accessible sand. I know  my metal detector could find the ring if it is there. I try to explain this to people prior to doing a search,  so they don’t get disappointed if the ring is not found. Many times the people are satisfied that the search area has been cleared by an experienced metal detector expert.

This was one of the quick easy searches. The ring had fallen in the sand just 3 feet from the edge of the boardwalk. Making it simple to find with my state of the art metal detector equipment. It was easier because Steve and Li called me soon after she felt it slip off her finger. They also marked the location and waited there till I arrived.

After finding Li’s sentimental gold ring . It was exciting for me to see how happy she was when I found her ring. I know it probably has important personal memories for her.

Gold Necklace Pendant Lost on Grass Football Field Found .. Westminister , CA.

*** Antonio lost a gold pendant at a Westminister, CA. park while playing football with his friends. He was sure the pendant was on the grassy field . He called me after he had another guy search for it with a metal detector.

  I met him late in the afternoon to get an idea of where he thought it may have come off. A football field is a massive area which could take me 5 or 6 hours if it wasn’t there or I missed it.

Antonio was very upset as this was a gift from his mother who had recently passed away. Actually he was going to be attending her funeral. The next day while I was doing the search.

My game plan was to separate the large area in five sections. Starting with Area #1 center of field. Areas  #2 and #3 the ends nearest the goal lines. Lastly, areas #4 and #5  would be grid searched.

The pendant was found in the first search area after an hour and a half of slow and low meticulous swinging of my Minelab Manticore metal detector. Searches can be quick if you start in the right spot. “ Some say it’s a game of inches.”

We were lucky this time and it was an emotional return as Antonio had been at the funeral and didn’t know the pendant was found till later that day.

*** Will was building a storage shed in his backyard. Later that evening while inside his house he noticed his gold wedding ring was not on his finger. He never felt it come off. This is normal because when people wear rings for many years, the ring can still feel like it’s on.

He called me explaining the circumstances of his loss. He couldn’t remember exactly when he last saw the ring before discovering his ring missing. It could be anywhere. We set up a day that I could search his backyard as that was where he had done a lot of activity, moving construction materials with high grass that could hide a small gold ring.

The game plan was to eliminate the backyard using a metal detector. If that was unsuccessful we had many other places that a metal detector may not be able to be used. We didn’t waste time discussing all the other areas the ring could be. It’s a process of elimination, one area at a time. Why get yourself confused with all the possibilities.

Metal detectors are a great tool for finding lost rings, but they do have limitations. So I used the my metal detector in the yard, where it works the best.

Sometimes you start in the right place, which was what happened this day.. 20 minutes in the backyard grass .. BOOM!  Will’s gold ring was found near his small construction project.

He was inside at the time of the recovery. When he came out to see how I was doing , I was able to surprise him.. and able to show him where it had been hiding.

*** Joey contacted me needing help to find a diamond engagement his wife lost in ankle deep water at a Southern California Beach. I told him we only had a few hours before high tide. I suggested that he call another detector guy closer to the location.  If the guy couldn’t do the search, call me back.

Joey called me back giving me the general area. I said it would take me about an hour and half to get there. It would be necessary to be able to have Monique present to hear her describe how and where the loss occurred.

We all showed up at the same time. The tide was low enough to use the detector without getting wet.

Monique’s beautiful diamond engagement ring was exactly where she had been collecting sea shells, already 2” deep in wet sand.

Timing is very important especially for losses that happen on public beaches with tides that change from minus -1.0 ft. low tide to plus + 5.6 ft. high tide.

Don’t waste your time renting or buying a cheap metal detector. If you don’t have any experience operating one, it could be very frustrating. Let me come to you with the best equipment available and experience for recovering all types of sentimental keepsakes. Stan the Metal Detector Man.. Mobile metal detecting service .. 949-500-2136

Hierloom Gold Diamond Pendant.. Lost in Grass .. Fountain Valley, CA.

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

 


*** Finding a gold diamond pendant in the grass at a public park can be challenging, especially in the dark. Celine called for help to find her sentimental pendant that was a gift from her grandmother and she has worn it everyday for years.

It was dark when I received the call. Celine told me she was in a Fountain Valley neighborhood park with her dog. Her dog playfully jumped up with its paws braking her gold necklace. The pendant flew off into deep grass.

During our conversation she asked if she could meet me the next day after she got home from work.  I would rather meet her as soon as possible, so I could get the location pinpointed. If it didn’t show up in the dark. I could resume the search the next day while she was at work.

I met her with her neighbor  and his metal detector. He was unable to locate the pendant. My equipment was able to locate the pendant shortly after I started the grid search. I’m sure the neighbor could have found it, but she had him searching the wrong location. This is more common than most inexperienced ringfinders know. It always important to ask the important questions. Celine was more than happy to have her pendant back.

I also took time to show her neighbor  that his detector would have found it if he was in the right location.

*** Erin needed help finding a set of two diamond stud earrings. After a quick conversation with him, I believed the loss occurred in a totlot play area. He sent me an address to get me to the place where he could meet me. It was possible to meet him before dark, so I left for the 24 mile drive soon after talking to him.

When I got to the address, it was actually San Clemente State Beach. Erin cleared up my idea that I would be searching a small totlot. He had to walk me out on the main beach. I noticed that he was having trouble finding where he been. He was sure that the earrings had been on his towel and they dropped in the sand when he picked up the towel.

He started me in one area, but soon grabbed me moving me 50 ft. to the south. I’m glad I was using my high frequency metal detector and the earrings still had backings on. ( more metal ) Many times we have a second earring to check our settings are correct for finding small jewelry.

It did take a few minutes to find both earrings. They were more than 15 feet from each other. A big beach area could be a much more difficult search than a small totlot. Erin was very happy and excited to have these sentimental earrings found. They were given to him by his mother who had recently passed away.

UCI Student Lost Car Key Fob .. Corona Del Mar State Beach

Call or text ASAP  Stan Ross the metal detector Man .. 949-500-2136 ..Timing is very important for items lost in public areas.. Items lost in yards or other private property may be located after many years. Call for advice about your chances to get your lost items recovered.


*** Marilyn is a student at University of California Irvine, she called me asking for help finding her Toyota electronic key fob lost in the sand. She said it happened at Corona Del Mar State Beach which is in Newport Beach.

She was in class but able to send me a marked up screen shot of the area. She could meet me after her last class in about 4 hours. We didn’t have time for me to ask very many questions. I knew she would soon be there and I could get more details.

When Marilyn met me, I showed her the locations I had already grid searched. My heart sank when she told me the loss happened 3 days before. This is a heavily maintained beach and many people detect this beach.

I could show her where I had already searched. She said it might be a bit further south. Turning left and walking  40ft. in a straight line to start a new grid line. Boom! first target at 40ft was Marilyn’s key fob. She doesn’t know how lucky we were. I’m not sure I would have even tried the search if she had told me the loss occurred three days before.

Key fob searches are difficult they do not always get buried, the sifting machines or beach rake machines pick them up or move them . It always feels good to help someone like Marilyn who was so grateful for my help.
