*** Jose and Ashley had been at Newport Beach, CA. for a relaxing on shoreline. They set up their beach chairs and  umbrella. During their day, Jose  put his gold wedding ring in the cupholder of the beach chair before going into the ocean. Most people don’t want to take a chance of losing a ring in the ocean, but they don’t think how easy a ring or jewelry dropped in the sand can also be impossible to find.

Well, this is what exactly happened to Jose. After he folded up his chair, his ring must have dropped in the sand. He had already walked off the beach and was at his car before realizing the ring was not in the pocket of the beach chair.

Returning to the location on the beach, his search was futile. Somebody that saw him digging in the sand told him about my metal detecting service.

Jose called me, waiting at the location. He couldn’t stay as they had a dinner reservation.

It took about an hour to locate the gold ring and Jose and Ashley met me the next day to pick up his ring.. A very nice couple and it was a pleasure to be able to help them..

Wedding Ring Lost in Surf .. San Clemente, CA. .. Found Three Days after Loss

On Sunday we had a special winter beach day. The daytime temperature was near 80 degrees at San Clemente, CA. I received a call from Julie just within minutes after her husband, PJ lost his tungsten wedding ring in the surf. She had my contact information because I had found the same ring last summer in the dry sand.

The tide was actually a medium high level when the ring was lost. PJ had retrieved his son’s surfboard when it washed ashore. He walked out to thigh deep water to push the surfboard to his son. That was when he felt the ring come off his finger. It’s always nice to know the person felt the ring come off and they have marked the location.

I was there to meet PJ shortly after the phone call. Even though it wasn’t low tide yet, it was more important to get the location and see the sand conditions. I thought it was worth a quick try knowing that my best chances were waiting for low tide. Starting with my Minelab Excalibur metal detector, I walked out into the surf. Thirty feet out I stepped into a 4 ft. trough that put me in water up to my shoulders. It was smarter to wait 2 hours for a lower tide. I tried again in the dark at 7 pm. Terrible search conditions, a deep trough with moving sand from past experience in the same location, I felt the ring was not findable. So I texted BJ and Julie. They thanked me saying the understand.

Three days after the first search I returned to the beach where the loss occurred. It was a much lower tide so my intention was just to see how much change the beach sand and cobble had made. We have many different type beaches and sand conditions vary.

I took out my Minelab Equinox 800 detector and my “Lucky “ new Xtreme Titaium sand scoop to the location planning to just see if there were any targets. When I saw the beach at a minus low tide, the cobble was still there and the sand had filled in the deep trough. I figured that the ring had to be at the bottom of the 4 ft. trough. I didn’t even want to get wet but just before leaving I walked into ankle deep water to do a couple test swings. It did get a signal that was more like a penny signal. Took my lucky Xtreme Ti scoop and retrieved PJ’s tungsten wedding ring. I couldn’t have been more surprised.

I texted PJ the good news with a picture of the ring. Later that evening I was able to return the ring to Julie. This was a special find for me because it’s my #400 recorded ring recoveries. Many searches and other types of finds like keys, cellphones, and once I located an abandoned bomb shelter. I love doing this, it’s not a job, it’s a passion!!
