Mobile Metal Detecting Service .. Call Stan the Metal Detector Man .. 949-500-2136

**** On our Southern California beaches it’s popular to spend the evenings sitting on the sand at the fire pits. This call was from Patrick’s friend, who had found me on TheRingFinder website. They had spent a couple hours enjoying sitting around a fire at Newport Beach,CA. As they started to leave, Patrick picked up his towel and brushed sand off with his hand. He felt his ring slip off his finger into the sand.

After a half hour searching the small area, they were frustrated with their unsuccessful attempts to find the ring. It was getting cold and they had to be home soon. I was able to meet them on the beach which is less than three miles from my home.

It only took a few minutes after setting up my detector to find the ring. Patrick and his friend were happy to have the ring recovered and able to get on their way home. I love these quick recoveries. From the time I left the house till I got home was less than an hour. That includes taking photos for the book of smiles. All ring calls are not this easy. This year I had one ring search in the Mojave desert 135 miles away and it was 104 degrees. Then I had another 100 mile drive with a 3 hour hike to a hot springs for a ring lost in the water. Both of these searches were unsuccessful. We don’t get all of them. I still can’t wait till the next call out. They are always a new adventure and so rewarding to make another smile.

Lost ring in the grass, Davenport, Fl….Found and Returned to Owner!

Brian had decided to take his dog out for a short walk behind his house and as he walked around the small lake he noticed how loose his ring was on his finger. He and his fiancee had bought promise rings for each other and they each wore their ring faithfully for two years. Brian had recently bought her an engagement ring therefore she no longer wore her promise ring and Brian sort of took up the habit of wearing her ring on his index finger on his left hand and just a few days earlier he jammed his finger so the ring was getting to tight and uncomfortable. So he tried wearing it on his ring finger and it sort of fit but was just a little loose. Add a little loose fit and some cool weather and Brian was setting himself up for his ring to fall off and that is exactly what happened. Somehow while Brian was playing with his dog he swung his arm to the side and he actually felt his fiancees promise ring go flying. Even though it was daylight Brian had no idea where the ring went and he searched for quite a while before finally giving up. The worse part was that he felt really bad about loosing his fiancees promise ring and he wanted to get it back ASAP because of the huge sentimental value it held.

His next thoughts were along the line of using a metal detector so he decided to try a search for “Metal Detector Rental” on his phone and up came theringfinders.com and one of my stories. Brian gave me a call and then sent me his address and a few hours later I was grid searching the exact area where he lost his ring. This area is a new construction area and the ground was signal free…with not a grunt or beep to be heard anywhere. Iron sounds as a grunt and non-ferros signals give a beep on my Garrett ATMax metal detector. As I was finishing up the 20 foot square area I got a great signal, crisp and clean, and there hiding in the grass was Brian’s promise ring! The relief was obvious on Brian’s face as he scooped up the ring and put it back on his finger! I thanked God for allowing me to find Brian’s special ring and for the privilege of being a member of theringfinders.com!

Wedding Ring Found on Roadside Near Bangor, MI

  • from Holland (Michigan, United States)
Contact:
Got a call from Tracy saying she lost her wedding ring out the window of her car. She and Mike, her husband, were driving down the road when they spilled some ice in the center console cup holder. Tracy grabbed the cup holder insert and threw the ice out the window. Oops, she forgot she had taken off her ring and put it in that cup holder. The next day they went back to look for the ring in daylight. Lying in the gravel beside the road they found the pad that had been in the bottom of the cup holder. Good! The ring must be nearby! But they didn’t find it.
So yesterday Mike took me to the area the ring was lost and I searched for about 2 hours until darkness shut me down. I told Mike I’d be back with reinforcements.
Today Gregg Larabel, Tom Cleary and I were determined. (And it really is a lot more fun when you have somebody searching with you.) On arriving on site we decided who would look where, and in about 15 minutes I found the ring about 5 feet from the gravel shoulder, nestled down in the thick gnarly grass — and about 20 feet from where they found the cup holder pad. I can’t be sure why I missed it yesterday, but it could just have been that I came at it from a different angle, making the “masking” effect of roadside debris less pronounced.
Tracy was at work. so we texted her for the address so we could deliver her ring to her. She came outside and we all celebrated the return of her ring. We took a few pictures on this beautiful December day and everybody went on with their day with a big smile on their face.

Lost Ring Old Orchard Beach, Maine. A ring finding tale in reverse.

  • from Rockport (Maine, United States)
Contact:

Most of my Ring Finder post stories begin with someone contacting me to come search an area where they lost a ring. In this case however I found a ring while casually detecting at Old Orchard Beach and then had to try track down the owner. A plea on Craigslist and in the Friends of Ocean Park FB page asking for anyone who had lost a piece of jewelry on the beach to contact me with a description did result in a few inquires, including the person who lost it while vacationing. He gave a description along with sending a photo from their wedding album to confirm. The 14k gold band is now back in New Hampshire on the finger of a man named Dave where it belongs. Dave needed a Ring Finder, and luckily a Ring Finder found his ring and then found him, because the road to reuniting someone with their lost jewelry is sometimes a two way street.

“I FIND JEWELRY”  call Stan the Metal Detector Man if you need  help ..  949-500-2136


*** Whiley was walking through a neighborhood park on a sidewalk. Both sides of the sidewalk had thick waist high landscapes bushes.  He made a jester with his left hand and his gold wedding ring went flying off his finger into the bushes. 

Whiley called me the next day and I met him the shortly after he called. When we got to the location, he couldn’t give me the exact location. He did narrow it down to a 20ft. length along the sidewalk. He also said,  he didn’t hear it hit the cement.

Leaving me at the location he went off to an appointment saying he would check with me after he took care of his previous obligation.

I had several metal detectors with me because it was such a crazy environment. First covered under and on the surface of bushes with the 11 inch coil. Then all the places I could search with the smaller 6 inch coil.. No success, so I went with the Garrett Carrot pinpointer on a extension pole. 

BOOM!! I was poking the pinpointer halfway into the 4ft. high bushes. I heard a signal about 18 inches into the thick bush. When I investigated where the signal came from, I could see the gold ring lying on a thick nest of branches and dead leaves. 

I took a photo of the ring , texting it to Whiley. He and his wife met me a half hour later, overjoyed and amazed that it was found in that impenetrable maze of bushes. As many of searches as I have done, this was also surprised at where the ring was hiding. Almost all searches are unique, We never know  “ What, When, Where or IF “  the item can be located.

LOST DIAMOND EARRING TRINITY, FL …FOUND!!

  • from Dunedin (Florida, United States)
Contact:

STEVE THOMAS   DUNEDIN RING FINDER  LOST A RING OR OTHER METAL VALUABLE?  CALL ME ASAP ANYTIME (843) 995-4719  THIS A FREE SERVICE, REWARD OPTIONAL BUT APPRECIATED!

 

I received a call from Russ who found my contact information on the Ring Finders website. Russ’s girlfriend had lost a diamond earring in the yard of their home. She was certain that the earring fell from her ear as she was walking around outside after dark talking on her cell phone. They searched for a while with a flashlight but could not locate the earring.

I went to the home the following day and after confirming with Russ that the house and all vehicles had been thoroughly searched, I began grid sweeping the thick St Augustine grass in the area where Russ’s girlfriend thought it most likely she had dropped the earring. I made several adjustments to my Equinox as apparently this area contained a lot of junk from the fairly recent construction of the house. After about an hour of search, we expanded the search area into the second most likely area of the yard. Two hours and several additional search areas later, I had failed to recover the earring, just finding several pieces of scrap. I asked Russ to search his home and vehicles again as well as talk to his girlfriend about other possible locations to search. Russ also said that he would have his girlfriend who was not home at the time provide me with a photo of the other earring in the pair when I returned to search again in the next day or so.

Several hours after I returned home, I received a text from Russ, and you guessed it, he had found the lost earring in his home under a ledge in the shower! (For reasons that I can not include in this post I was not able to obtain a photo of the earring). Russ said that even though I didn’t find it, I brought him good luck.

Russ, thank you for allowing me to assist you in your search for your girlfriend’s earring and for rewarding me for my efforts.

****Erick and his family live near San Clemente. They regularly come the this same small beach and everybody knows each other. The week before his friend lost a platinum out in the ocean while surfing.

Erick normally doesn’t take his ring off but this day he decided he didn’t want to lose it in the water. He took his platinum wedding ring off wrapping it in a towel that he place on a large rock. When he returned from the water his ring was not in the towel. He was baffled because he had not moved the towel before checking for his ring.

He was able to call me for help finding his ring with my metal detector. We met in the parking lot. Then he told me he believed it may have been stolen. He wanted to make sure it hadn’t been dropped in the sand. We walked to the large boulder were he put his belongings.

I was afraid that the ring might have fallen into many inaccessible spaces between the breakwater size rocks. This time we were lucky. The ring was under the sand right next the place were the towel had been. We figured that someone may have moved the towel while Erick was surfing. Sometimes we never know what caused the loss. The most important thing is we found and returned the sentimental wedding ring. Erick was elated and very happy that it wasn’t lost forever.

Lost Gold Cartier Love Ring at Hale Koa Waikiki…FOUND!!!

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


This ring find began when I got a call from Daniel who lives in Honolulu. While enjoying the day and playing volleyball on the Hale Koa beach his girlfriend Kiana lost her Gold Cartier Love ring in the water while going after a stray ball. They searched for about an hour but never found the ring. His friend told him to Google search and that’s how he found the ring finders. I told Daniel I could grab my gear and be there in 15 minutes. When I arrived Daniel introduced me to Kiana and she proceeded to show me how she lost the Love ring which was so small she actually wore it as a toe ring and felt it come off as she ran into the water. We set the grid lines and I started the search. Kiana only went five feet into the water which was waist deep. On the second leg of the grid I got a nice tone in the wet sand and in one scoop there was Kiana’s Gold Love ring. I let her reach in and retrieve the ring and then she asked if she could give me a hug. But of course! She said the ring had strong sentimental value to her and she was very thankful for the successful search. Aloha to Kiana & Daniel!

Platinum Wedding Band Lost In Yard Clippings Redmond WA

Watch this exciting recovery video and like, share and subscribe.

Yesterday a gentleman contacted me asking if I could help him find his lost platinum wedding band. He explained he had been cleaning up some yard clippings in a very small area of his yard and pitching them into a yard waste bin. He shared his wife was upset over this and that he had to figure out a way to get his ring back. After our brief phone conversation we set a schedule to meet up for the search the next morning.

Having been told that he had a full bin full of yard clippings I came prepared with a tarp, and a few tools to help with the work. After he showed me the area on the side of his home where he had been picking up the clippings it looked like a fairly straight forward search site. He was not wearing gloves and it had been a bit colder out. My first plan was to search the area where he had been picking up the yard clippings. He then showed me the full bin of scraps and when doing so I learned that he had recovered his other wedding band from the top of this bin at the same time he lost the ring I was called to search for. With this new knowledge I focused on clearing the bin of yard clippings first. After I processed the yard waste bin with no ring found we knew it had been cleared and continued on.

After working the side yard for a bit of time scanning the ground still with leftover clippings scattered about and still no ring. He had told me that it was a smaller platinum band but I knew it was still enough for my machine to detect. This just meant the ring could be easily hiding out and I would need to be very diligent in my search as not to miss the ring. In the middle of this work area there is two bushes that had been cut down leaving some sturdy stocks about a foot and a half tall like a porcupine. As I kept searching over the flat dirt and not finding his ring my growing concern was that his ring may have dropped down inside either of these two porcupine bushes. Finally I was left with very little options and started poking my pinpointer trough the deep stalks of the cut back bushes. After processing both bushes and almost no more plant to search my pinpointer went crazy! Bingo I had located his ring and he was very appreciative of all the services provided. It was nice to return this wedding ring of fifteen years back to this gentleman’s finger were it belongs.

Cheers,

Jeff Morgan

Yellow Gold and Diamond Paved Cartier Love Bracelet Lost in Sand At Malibu Beach…Found and Joyously Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

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! 310-953-5268

I received a desperation call from Hana. She had lost her Cartier gold and diamond bracelet in the sand at the beach. She had been shooting a video for her Social Media page when sometime during the shoot her bracelet came off and disappeared. She had left the beach before she knew it was gone, and was worried about getting to it right away. I agreed with her about doing the search as soon as possible, so I gathered what I needed, and was on my way.

When I got to the area I had a bit of a hard time finding the access point to get to where she was, and there was no cell phone coverage for my carrier, so I was not able to contact her. After studying the photos Hana sent me, and driving around, I finally was able to find the access point, and Hana was waiting for me. She took me down to where she was filming, and showed me the area. It was a rather long, but a narrow path that she had run down on the beach. She went to the furthest point and waited, as I set up for my search. I began, swung about 3 times, got a great solid gold signal in the head phones, and dug. I pulled out the sand and dumped it out. Right on top was Hana’s bracelet big and beautiful. I held it up for her, and I think it took a couple seconds for her to realize that I found it so quickly, but when she came back she reminded everyone that she suspected it had been lost in that area. It was great to be able to reunite Hana and her bracelet. Sometimes the loss of such an item can be disheartening, but all smiles this time.

 

Don’t let the County beach cleaning machines take your lost valuable, call as soon as possible!
