I was at work when I received a text message for help in finding a lost wedding band, I quickly called the young man in regards to where and how he lost his ring. He told me he was playing volleyball and before the game he took off his ring and put it in the cupholder of his chair, after the game he picked up his chair and was walking to his truck when he got to his truck he realized there was no ring in the cupholder. This happens a lot where people takeoff their ring to keep it safe but forget they put it in a special place then pick up and walk away. When I finish work in arrived at the volleyball court I heard his story and where he picked up his chair unfortunately it was all dried grass and a ring could show itself very easily without the help of a Metal Detector.

My thought was the only chance we had is if the ring made it into the sand in the volleyball court, within only a matter of a minute I found his beautiful white gold hammered ring in the sand. To see his smile and how much this meant to him to get it back makes me feel so happy that I was able to help continue his beautiful story.

I have the best job in the world, I love helping people more than anything I’ve ever done in my lifetime. I get to make people smile, I get to hear their stories of what their ring means to them, and how happy they are when I find it.

Received a call from Sharla that her rings were lost in Lake Elsinore. I could tell this was not an ordinary loss by the tone of her voice… She sounded so discouraged on the phone,these rings meant so much to her. These are my favorite hunts, where there is a lot on the line.

I met her and her husband at the lake at 6am. There were already fisherman out with their lines in the water. Kindly, they accommodated us and let us search near their poles. After a brief discussion of how and where the rings were lost, I began my search in the water. Fishing weight, bottle cap, penny, more fishing weights. There were targets everywhere making the search somewhat difficult.

After 25 or 30 minutes, I got a shallow tone that sounded much like everything else. Scooped it out and dumped the pile of rocks and black sand on the beach. Out popped a little wedding band!! Woo hoo!!!! I carefully walked it over to Sharla and placed it in her hand. She melted and couldn’t believe it. We had found the smaller ring.

Now, time to find the engagement ring. I went right back to the spot of the other band, and another shallow target right next to it. I scooped it out and dumped it on the beach. I Couldn’t believe it, there was the engagement ring with a big beautiful diamond. I put it in my hand and walked over to Sharla. I dropped it in her hand and there was so much joy on her face. This is one moment and hunt I won’t forget. Even the fishermen left their poles to come and celebrate with us, giving fist bumps and applauding the moment. The rings had been found and put back on the hand where they belong.

I was then told by the couple that they have a pending divorce in court. They said if I didn’t find the ring, they would let the divorce go through. But if I did find it, it would be a sign to try again.

So glad we found the rings. Shawn and Sharla are the nicest people and so glad to be a part of their story. You couldn’t find two nicer people. Wishing them a lasting and beautiful marriage, strengthened by this experience.

Helen & Tom from Worcester had a splendid day out on Studland Beach recently but from Helens finger slipped her grandmothers wedding band. The ring , like many, was very precious to her & had been passed down since the 1930’s. At first we assumed it was most likely ‘out there’, somewhere in the sea after she’d gone swimming.

Preparing myself for a very long sea search, I firstly searched the beach area where they’d camped. Do the easiest area first, get it out of the way- ‘prepare for the big search’ so to speak.

I was amazed that after only 10 minutes up came the ring! We met the next day to reunite her with her ring & she was relieved & thrilled to have it back. They made a very kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Charity as a sign of their gratitude.

Jay, wife & children, from London, enjoying a splendid day on Sandbanks Beach. What could go wrong? Watching your wedding ring slip from your finger out to sea, seeing it & desperately trying to recover it for an hour before finally its consumed by sand, sea & tide.

Lengthy discussions between us, photographs & even some maths on my behalf narrowed the area down to two tennis court size areas whereby when the tides were right, I’d have just wet sand to deal with. My first 2 hour attempt using the CTX 3030 found nothing. I was confused. Why wasn’t it there?! Second time, 2 hours, same area using a Whites PI, nothing again! I had concluded with my attempts & the machines I had used I was in the wrong area. Third time, push further out, extend the search area even if the so called facts ‘didn’t add up’!

After 2 hours with barely any signals I heard a faint beep & then another! Scooping the sand  furiously there it was! Big, bright, solid with diamonds twinkling at me like a million photographers flashes.  Jay was probably still in shock as I was to receive the ring back a few days later. The sand is renown for its softness in that area & items barely lay detectable sometimes a matter of hours!  Jay made a grateful & generous donation to the Margaret Green Animal charity.

I was at work when I received a phone call in regards to helping find a lost diamond ring in the ocean at English Bay Beach in Vancouver. I asked my standard questions to get a feel on what my chances were of finding this ring for them, it was lost 24 hours prior to the call.

There’s always a risk that someone else could’ve found it before I got there but it’s always worth a shot to go out and search the area, I asked if they had marked the area so when I got there I’d be able to know where to search. They said they made great landmarks and they told me unfortunately they couldn’t be there to show me because they lived almost 2 hours from the beach.

It sure helps if people mark the areas so when I get there I have a decent chance of finding it, I’ve been searching for another ring for almost 3 days a total of over 12 hours in the water waist deep because the person isn’t quite sure where it came off, it’s a large area. I will not give up on this until I know I’ve completed that search and covered all the area.

This young man said he had marked the area where his girlfriend lost her diamond ring, when I arrived and after looking at photos and talking to him on the phone, I lined myself up in the ocean and headed in to do my search. Within only a couple of minutes I found her beautiful diamond ring. I truly have the best job in the world my office is always amazing and I meet great people!
