Metal Detecting for…Midnight Gold/Spanish Banks/Vancouver

I’m at work and I get a call from a young man at around 7 pm who was looking to rent a metal detector to find his wedding band at the beach.

We talked for a while and I told him that I didn’t rent out my detectors but I could give him a number to call. That being said if he waited till the next day there could be a chance that the beach machine that cleans the beach could scoop it up and it would be gone forever…

I explained to him that I was working and that I couldn’t get out there to find the ring until around midnight, I told him I’d be happy to come out and find it for him.

The first question was how much do you charge? I don’t charge I replied, I work on a reward bases… only if found… ”I just can’t put a price on someone’s jewellery that has an emotional and sentimental value”

He agreed to meet at the beach at midnight and he gave me the location, after work I headed home to grab my detectors and off to the beach I went.

It was a little before midnight and I met Andrew who was holding a flashlight by the volleyball court where he lost his ring, for a few minutes we discussed the possibilities of where the ring could of come off. He showed me an area he marked off and told me there was close to 20 people helping him search for the ring for over a half hour, but no luck.

I started my grid search of the area and after searching the side of the court that he thought it was in and after 10 minutes I had no ring… I told him its a game of inches and not to worry. I started my second part of my grid search and within 5 minutes a total of 15 I had my first solid signal, I told him that this looks good, I took out a scoop of sand and put my light in the scoop…There was his white gold wedding band!

I got a big smile and I could tell he was very happy, I was thrilled to find it for him…It made my day!…Or night…Midnight Gold!

I love my job!

Metal Detecting 3rd Beach in Vancouver in 4 feet of water for a lost wedding band…

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

I receive a call at around 3pm on Saturday in regards to a lost gold wedding band at 3rd beach in Vancouver. The man tells me that he was at the beach swimming at low tide in about 4 feet of water when he felt the ring come off his finger.

The great thing is he made a mental note of the area using the lifeguard chair on the beach and trees in front of him in the far distance. This is amazing because it gives me a good chance to get close to the area the ring was lost in and this is very important because if you ever look at the ocean and say…Hey I lost my ring some where out there, can you find it? It’s like looking for a needle in haystack!

I had no chance that day to search as the tide was coming in and by the time I got there it would have been to deep. I checked the tide schedule and it was a higher low tide the next day by 1 foot and even high the next few days… We met on the Sunday at low tide and he showed me the area he thought it would be in…The ocean wasn’t that warm!

I started my grid search which is very difficult in the water and close to 30 minutes and cold body we went to the shoreline to talk about the location.

He asked me if the ring would have moved very much in the past 24 hours and I said not much at all as the gold ring is heavy and like all gold it works its way down into the sand. I took my ring off and dropped it at the shoreline and we watched as the waves never moved the ring, it slowly became covered by sand and disappeared.

I knew we had to find the ring today because if we didn’t the tide would have been to deep for the next week or so to search for it.

He walked back out to chest deep water and looked around and lined himself up with the lifeguard chair and said to me “it has to be around here” I walked up towards him swinging my loop under water and when I got to him I turned to the right about one yard and got a great signal! I knew it was his ring, I scooped up the sand and without looking I held the scoop up to him and his smile said it all!

Note to anyone who ever looses a ring in the water…If its chest deep of water…#1 Line yourself up with something on the beach…Log, big rock, exct. #2 slowly walk towards the log and count your steps or yards. When I get there we count the steps and this gives me a fantastic chance to get into the specific area that I need to find your ring!

I love my job!

Lost Gold Ring at English Bay Beach in Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

It’s Saturday around 5 pm and I just made my wife and I dinner, I’m about to dig in and my phone rings…Lost ring at English Bay Beach in Vancouver… I ask a few question and take a few bites of my meal and I’m on my way to the beach to see if I can find this young mans diamond pinky ring.
I meet a group of young men and one young lady and they tell me how they were playing volleyball and how when he was diving for the ball he felt his ring come off and some of his friends thought they saw something hit the sand…

The young man tells me how special the ring is to him and how it was given to him by his parents and he was the first brother to receive such a gift. I could tell how much it meant to him and how devastated he was by loosing it.

We discuss the area he thought it was lost in and I started my search, close to 30 minutes and no ring…? I sat down a we talked some more about where the ring could have gone and he said he was hitting the ball hard and thought maybe it went further out from my grid…He was right! I extended my grid search and found his ring!

He was speechless when I asked him if this was his ring, and held it up for him to see.

I love my job!

Metal Detecting for a lost Diamond Earring/White Rock/Cresent Beach/BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Today I had a search for a lost diamond earring that was pulled off the ladies ear by her puppy… The lady and her husband took the puppy to the vet to have it ex-rayed to make sure the dog didn’t swallow it.

The ex-rays didn’t show that the puppy swallowed the earring so they searched the area of the garden that they believed it was lost in, but found nothing.

I have to say that earrings are very difficult to locate due to the fact that there is very little gold on the post that holds in the diamonds. That being said I love a challenge, and this earring was bigger then most so I knew I’d get a good signal. This search was closing in on 2 hours and the search area was small but a few plants and shrubs made it difficult.

I was ready to grid search the rest of the backyard because I didn’t find it where we thought it would be, but for some reason I went back to the spot that I’d been searching(with my hands in the shrubs) and this time I received a faint signal and as I started to move some lose dirt out popped the earring.

The earrings were a 10 year anniversary gift and as you can see in the picture above…It made her day that it was found!

I love my job!

(Metal Detecting Vancouver)…Reward for a…Half A Heart…

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

This picture is the other half of the heart that belongs to Noah’s girlfriend, we need to find his half!

I had a search at a soccer field for a steal half of a heart that was lost at Robson park, off Kingsway in Vancouver. I couldn’t find this one but if you do, please get in touch with me and I will put you in touch with the owner. There is a $40.00 reward for its return…

When you are searching a soccer field it all comes down to a game of inches… Its a hard search as you have to go very slow on your grid!

I will be back to search the other half of the field tomorrow or the next day. I believe someone may have found this as it’s pretty shiny when then sun hits it. If you found this pendent have a heart and contact me so we can get it back to Noah! Thanks!!

I love my job!

Metal Detecting…Golden Garden/Delta BC

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)

This weekend I had a search for a mans white gold wedding band that was lost while gardening earlier in the week. When I arrived at the location I was greeted by a young man named Wes.

We talked about the search area and we decided to start at the back where he had 6 or 8 bags of yard trimmings that were waiting for me to search.

This was a good place to start as the first bag gave me a good solid signal that read ring on my visual display of my detector. We dumped half the bag and the signal was now close to the top of what was left in the bag.

Poking my had around in the bag we both saw the ring at the same time, it was a very fast recovery! Makes up for the searches that take hours…

I love my job!

Metal detecting…Found white gold wedding band on a beach in Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Well the summer is almost here and we had a nice sunny day, it must have been close to 70 degrees.

I received a call from a man by the name of Richard and he told me that he lost his white gold wedding band at the beach (Spanish Banks) in Vancouver.

He told me that he felt the ring come off his finger when he was throwing a football, he marked the area that he was standing in and then searched the internet on his phone for someone to help find his ring.

I think he said he typed in ”ring finders” in Vancouver and I came up a few times, so he called, and I came out to find the ring.

When I got there I was greeted by a friend of Richard’s and he walked me over to where they were sitting on the beach.

I met Richard and he showed me the area and it only took me a little over 30 seconds to find the ring.

I started where he was standing and throwing the football and on my second line of my grid search and my first good signal…I found his ring.

I love my job!

Metal detecting for a gold cat ring/Lost in North Vancouver

  • from Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Just the other day I get a call from a lady that was desperate to find her gold ring that was lost while gardening at her daughters place.

When I showed up she showed me the area that the ring was lost in and told me that the ring was gold and shaped like a cat.

She bought the ring in Mexico and it was a one of a kind ring that she loved very much. We walked around the yard and when I saw the area I knew it wouldn’t take long to find the ring.

It only took minutes to search the small garden area on the side of the house and when I didn’t find it she was surprised!

I then searched four bags of yard trimmings that she bagged and it wasn’t in there, I went back to the garden area and expanded my search onto the grass and minutes later I found her golden cat.

The smile shows you that she was very happy that ”The Cat Came Back”!

I love my job!
