Maria contacted me about the loss of her house, and wondered if I would be available to help her find some missing items that were left behind. I let her know when I would be free for the search, and we arranged to meet at a local restaurant because her house was in a gated community.

When I arrived I really wasn’t expecting what I saw. The house was partially standing, and it was built with a steel infrastructure which was all over the place. She told me that one of the most important items to find was a diamond engagement ring that had been given to her by her husband who had passed at an early age. she showed me where she last believed it had been, but on the second floor which was now on the first floor. So I began to work. I found many parts of figurines with a couple intact. I also found a bunch of doll arms and legs. I used a reciprocating saw to remove some of the steel beams in order to get at some of the rubble underneath them, and began finding coins. I felt I had found the area where the ring would be, so I kept sifting. I worked that area until I was scraping the floor all over, but no ring. After 5 hours, I had 168 coins, numerous doll arms and legs, and 2 intact chains along with 4 chain fragments.

Maria asked if I could come back to look again in a different area, so we agreed on another day for the search. When I arrived, Maria was already shoveling rubble to be sifted, and I got right to work. I worked for another 3 hours, and we were able to find the ring she really wanted to find as well as 2 others, and 2 earrings. With all of these searches I find that the people I am helping are hurt, very hurt, but not broken. There is a deep resilience in their character that I admire.

I did come back a 3rd time, and was only able to find a few chain fragments.

Lost Silver Ring w/ Topaz Setting Found In The Snow In Hamtramck Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)
Contact:

Grace Under Pressure….

….With getting engaged on Valentines Day, Grace was moving forward with wedding plans. But somewhere between the house and car her ring that was passed down to her came off her finger. With high sentimental value the stress began to mount when looking thru the ice and snow when she couldn’t find it. The area was in a public parking lane that had lots of tire tracks, ice and a huge snow pile over the curb. One good thing was no snowplow had come by yet. I began to detect the parking lane and was hoping that the ring was there. After a few square feet of grid searching, I got a signal on my MXT metal detector that was in the silver range. Pushing the pin pointer thru the dirty stained snow and ice chunks revealed her ring! She ran from the curb and as I placed the ring in her hand her smile would have melted a glacier!

Lost Keys in the Snow Found in Pontiac Michigan

The Keys To Freedom…

…..Come in many ways. For Ray, like most of us, his set of keys was his freedom, but when he lost them in the snow the freedom those keys provided was lost. He faced being locked out of the house and a possible towing charge plus key replacement fee, and the hassle of it all. Using my MXT metal detector I scanned thru the piles of snow he shoveled. A solid signal came thru on the detector and down deep in a snow pile his keys appeared! Now free from the boundaries of the loss Ray can continue to enjoy his freedom!

Lost Heirloom Gold & Diamonds Pendant at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)
Contact:

This Gold & Diamonds Pendant hunt began last month on January 19th when Vickie texted me that night about losing it in Ulua lagoon.  She was on the shoreline with her niece and the young girl reached up and accidently pulled on her necklace and a Jade Circle and the Pendant fell into the water.  Vickie was able to see and retrieve the Jade Circle but the Gold & Diamond Pendant was gone.  She was only a car length from the coral rocks on the left side so I immediately started a hunt the next morning.  I covered the area extensively and could not find the Pendant.  I had my buddy Terry hunt and he was unsuccessful too.  Then two days ago on a ring hunt for a Platinum Wedding Band,  I stumbled upon the Pendant in waist deep water.  It was so far away (maybe 20 car lengths from the coral rocks) I was wondering if I found Vickie’s Pendant.  Thankfully, when I got back to my car, after the successful ring hunt, I found a pic on my phone of Vickie’s beautiful Pendant and indeed it was a match.  We were able to meet up yesterday for the return and I got that smile & shaka!  We will never know how the Pendant got to the location it was found.  Aloha to Vickie!

Lost and found car/key chain Peterborough Ontario

  • from Cobourg (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:

Received a text from Ankit last evening about him loosing his key chain, with all his important keys last evening while snow blowing a driveway. While reviewing security camera footage, he was able to see the key chain falling out of his pocket then the snowblower throwing it out onto the yard. After reviewing the videos and pictures, headed out to his location. Snow had to be over 3 feet deep but I knew that the keys would most likely be towards the surface. About 45 minutes later, got a faint iron signal and found his car/key chain about 6 inches deep into the snow. Ankit was extremely happy and relieved.

Lost gold wedding band found in Peterborough Ontario

  • from Cobourg (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:

Received a text from Luke last week about him having lost his gold wedding band while knocking down icicles from the roof in his backyard. While doing so, he fell down in the snow which he was pretty certain that’s when the ring slipped off his finger and was lost. I gave him a few pointers on how to use a detector and how to search for it but to no avail. I headed down to his location today and started to search for the ring in deep snow. I eventually found the ring embedded in a couple inches of ice on one of the wooden steps. Luke was extremely happy to be reunited with his wedding band especially on Valentine’s Day.

Lost – Men’s 14kt Gold Wedding Band, Daytona Beach, Fl – FOUND!!!

  • from New Smyrna Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Early Friday morning, I got a text from Clay. He was in town for the Daytona races and had played a round of golf the day before. Sometime between the first and fourth hole, his 14-karat gold wedding ring had slipped out of his pocket and vanished.  Only married three months, he did not tell his new bride Maddie.

I told him that when it comes to lost items, time is of the essence. We agreed to meet up soon after. I grabbed my Minelab Manticore and pinpointer, loaded them into my vehicle, and headed out. As I drove, I silently prayed that God would guide me to Clay’s ring.

We met at the clubhouse and began retracing his steps, methodically checking each spot where he had parked and every tee box where he had played. We even scanned the exact areas where he had taken his shots. But after thoroughly combing through it all…no ring. Not willing to give up, we decided to backtrack from the third hole to the first, making sure to stay clear of the golfers still on the course.

At one point, Clay suggested, do you mind walking from here? I’ll head to the third hole and work my way toward you. That way, we can check along the path my golf cart took, just in case the ring slipped out while I was driving.

I said, sounds like a plan, and we split up.

I had just finished searching near the second tee box and was making my way toward the third hole along the edge of the cart path when my detector gave a strong, promising signal. I bent down, brushed aside the grass, and there it was gleaming in the sunlight, half-hidden but unmistakable. Clay’s beautiful gold wedding ring, waiting to be found.  God is good!

Rolex Watch, Civil War Gun, and Class Ring Found in Palisades Burned Home

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)
Contact:

Steve’s Emergency Metal Detecting Service For You if you lost a ring or something precious to you. Please don’t wait until tomorrow, time will work against you, please CALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, CALL NOW!  310-953-5268

I received a call from Cliff who had lost his home in the Palisades Fire here in the Los Angeles area. His family had lost it all, but he wanted to try and find a watch that had been in his family for 4 generations, which had been handed down son to son, and he wanted to be able to do the same with his own son. We set a date and time to meet, as he had to get me through 2 National Guard checkpoints to get to his site.

When we arrived the property was like the many thousands all around, burned to the ground. He showed me where the ring had been, and there was anywhere from 6 to 12 inches of rubble in the area. I began working through the rubble with my sifter plodding on, shovel full after shovel full, not finding the watch. Cliff had a scheduled appointment, and had to leave, so I stayed another 1 1/2 hours trying to find the watch with no luck. I sent him a text letting him know I was unable to find the watch, and that I was leaving before the curfew. Right as I was getting ready to leave I spotted a class ring at the edge of the search area, on top of some rubble. I sent another text to Cliff letting him know this, and it buoyed his hope, so he asked if I would be able to come back again. He let me know also that there was a revolver he would like to find that had been from a distant relative who had used it in the Civil War.

When I arrived the second time I went right to work in the area I had worked before, continuing to expand the search zone one shovel full at a time. Then after about an hour, I took two shovels of rubble, and on top of the second one, I saw the watch. It was completely destroyed, a real sad ending for the search. When I brought it to Cliff, he said that at least it won’t haunt him if he did not find it, not knowing if it made it through the fire. Next we started moving some of the metal that was covering the area where the gun had been, and set to work removing the big pieces of rubble to try to get to the gun. As I lifted a piece of roofing tile I saw the gun, and held it up for Cliff. Once again, the fire had taken it’s toll. At least Cliff had closure being able to find those items which meant so much to him and his family.

Kind woman with dementia lost ring while gardening

  • from Pacifica (California, United States)
Contact:

I received a call from the niece of a kind older woman who lives in a lovely mid-century modern home designed by Joseph Eichler. #housegoals
She told me that her aunt had lost a ring while gardening but that she didn’t believe she knew where she actually lost it, due to dementia. My instinct was to trust “Eva” over the niece who just seemed to be annoyed by her aunt’s diminished mental faculties. And I am glad that I did.
The dirt was hard-packed but there were a few trees with ivy around the bases and one tree with a bench built in a square around the base. This was the spot Eva thought she lost the ring. When she told me that I caught the niece’s eyes, she rolled them and walked away. I did a preliminary swing around the trees and benches with my small coil to get into the nooks and in to the ivy. Then I returned to the area where Anna said she lost the ring. Detecting along the fence line a glimmer of silver caught my eye and there it was! Her cherished Scandinavian silver ring lying just beneath the gap under the fence right next to where she knew it would be. She was right all along.
