This was my 3rd recovery on August 16th, I spent about 1 1/2 hour gridding the wet sand to recover this beautiful ring. She told me it was passed down to her from a family member. I met her later to return the ring and forgot to get her photo so you get me instead.

I was able to find Jose’s beautiful gold class Ring in Laguna Beach with my metal detector in about 10 minutes. He was so grateful as a few of his family members pitched in to buy the ring for him. This recovery was on July 12th.

This ring hunt occurred yesterday evening when I got a call from Noa who lives in Aina Haina on Oahu. While going up to block a volleyball spike at 50 MPH, the ball struck Noa’s Platinum Wedding band and he felt it come off. They immediately halted the game to see if anyone had spotted where it landed. Unfortunately no one did. They ran there hands lightly across the sand where they thought it would be but to no avail. Noa reached out to me and I agreed I’d come right down before the night crew of detectorists hit the beach. Easy parking and when I arrived Noa had already drawn a box of where the ring should be. I fired up the Manticore and started the search. The area was mostly sterile of targets. I covered the eastern half of the court and no ring was found. I expanded out in every direction on the eastern half but no ring. Surprisingly, I found a 1927 Buffalo Nickel! I even went perpendicular to my previous search, just in case. I talked to Noa and his lovely wife Camille and the only thing left was to try the western half of the court but none of us were hopeful knowing how the ball hit Noa’s hand and the probable trajectory of his ring. Then on about the fourth line of the grid I got a booming target and in one scoop I could here a heavy clunking in the scoop. To all of our surprise, it was Noa’s Platinum Ring. We can’t imagine how it got to that location just thankful to Jesus it was found. Then there were hugs of relief all around. Aloha to Noa & Camille!

In the photos below I was contacted about a very expensive Chrome Hearts bracelet lost in the ocean at Haulover Beach. When I spoke to him on the phone I told him to take a bunch of pictures of the surrounding area so I could use it as a reference when I get there just in case he had to leave. Sure enough when I got there in about 45 minutes it was pouring rain and we had to wait about 30 minutes before I could get out in the water. After gridding the area for about 30 minutes, I was finally able to find the bracelet. It really helps when you’re able to mark the area or take pictures.

In the photos below I was contacted by Laura who was on vacation in Miami Beach. She had lost a very sentimental gold pendant that came off her necklace. She had called me in the evening and we met up early the next morning, still dark at 6:30am. She had taken a few videos and pictures of the surrounding area where she lost it. When we got there, I was able to go out about 50 feet out into the ocean and find it. This was a quick recovery, it took about 10 min. She did a great job of remembering and marking where she lost it. I was happy I was able to recovery her pendant a few hours before her flight.

On Monday, August 24, 2026, I received a voice mail saying in part, “Candy, lost a ring on North Myrtle Beach. Give me a call back and I just wanted to discuss fees.” When I called her back, she told me that a yellow gold loop earring had been lost in the dry sand and asked what I charge. I explained the details on cost, and she asked if I could come. I told her I’d be there in 20 minutes, grabbed my Equinox 800 and hit the road.
I called Candy as I was walking out on the beach and she waved me down. I found out that Becky had her earring fall out of her ear and she showed me a 2’X2’ square where the ring should be. I asked Becky for the other earring so I could test it. After switching to ‘all metal’ mode, I got a loud and clear signal. I asked Becky and the 3 other ladies to move their chairs. As Becky picked up her chair, I swung the coil over the area and Boom! I had her earring in my hand before she set the chair down. Becky was extremely happy as this was a past anniversary present, and tomorrow just happens to be her anniversary.
Becky and Candy – thank you for calling and trusting me to find your lost treasure.

Losing jewelry can be heartbreaking.
Losing a necklace containing your mother’s ashes is something much deeper.
