Wedding Ring recovery at Sunset Beach, Huntington Beach

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

Call Surf City Ring Finder-

Chris called me and explained to me about the loss of his wife’s ring at Sunset Beach. They were already on their way home to Northern California but he sent me a video of where they were on the beach. I went to the beach after work and used his video to find the area they weee at. After detecting for about 30 minutes I located the lost ring. The ring was pretty deep in the sand as the high tide had gone over it after the loss. His brother lives in Orange County so he was able to pick it up for him.

Amy lost her Class Ring on January 26th 2026 while she was enjoying the day in Central Park. She told me the loss occurred a week ago so I was concerned that the commercial lawn mower might have run it over. This search took about 40 minutes as it was littered with pull tabs and numerous pieces of foil. Amy was so excited when she saw I had found her ring.

Lisa lost her key fob at Dog Beach in Huntington Beach on December 27th 2025. I told her I could help the following morning and she agreed. When I met her at the beach she explained that she was throwing a stick for her dog when the key fob fell out of her pocket.
As we were walking she saw the stick laying on the sand so we knew we were in the right area. I started detecting and in about 15 minutes I was able to find her key fob.

Metal Detecting Service 714-944-0555

I received a call from Phill’s wife last night stating that he lost his late father’s Gold Ring while throwing a football to his Son. We agreed to me coming out this morning since it was dark and getting late.
I gridded the area with no luck so I went back to where I started and I got a nice low VDI double signal and I knew this had to be his ring. I had to use my pin-pointer in the dense grass to recover his ring.

Phill was elated to get his Ring back!

Found Heirloom Gold Ring on Carport Roof

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

I had a text message when I woke up today that came through at 2am. Ananya asked me to help look for her ring by the carport at her apartment complex. She flung her arm up in the air and her ring went flying and was nowhere to be found. I searched the area but couldn’t find it and that’s when she mentioned it could be on the carport roof. The landlord had a ladder I used to access the roof and sure enough I spotted Ananya’s gold ring which was passed down from her grandmother.

Gold Wedding Ring found in Long Beach Backyard

  • from Sunset Beach (California, United States)

Paul was doing some gardening in his Long Beach backyard when his ring vanished into a large bush.

When I arrived he showed the rather large bush so I used my detector to sweep the periphery of the bush and didn’t get any signals, so I used my pin-pointer to get inside and underneath but still there was no signal.

I decided to check the succulents in the front border area and that is where I found Paul’s ring.

Tom lost his ring while tossing a ball for his dog at dog beach in Huntington Beach, Ca. He said the ring used to be his father’s and I could tell it was really special to him. I met him down by the water where the loss occurred and started gridding the area. About 15 or 20 minutes without a single signal I got a high tone and right away I knew it was hitting on the silver and gold ring. Tom was very happy to get this special ring back.

I got a call to see if I could help find a gold pendant in Belmont Shore Monday evening. I showed up and was greeted by a couple guys, one being Jeremy whose pendant it was. Apparently they were wrestling on the sand which caused the chain to break.

Jenny texted me to ask if I could help find her Son’s ring in Newport Beach. It was after 8pm and I headed to the location right away. When I arrived I started gridding the area and after about 10 minutes I received a good signal and had the ring in my scoop.

So glad I could help recover another lost ring. The people I meet doing this is part of the allure.
