The pinnacle of beach metal detecting!

This video is why we do it! Here is a collection of some of the best things I've found since I started recording my hunts. Enjoy!!!

[@JessaLynn8]

The best feeling when you can give people back their lost jewellery- the one teenager/young adult with the bracelet, he looked SOO DOWN, and he was SOO HAPPY when he seen you found it! ❤❤

[@miccartman903]

The joys of reuniting people with their lost items & ur enthusiasm makes this such an epic channel

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!!!

[@deborahgarrison4349]

Fun!

[@MAC88-88]

That was an 82d Airborne Division ring. I spent over 10 years and 101 jumps there! Cool find.

[@mmay6621]

The little boy is precious. He was invested.

[@DetectFlorida]

He wanted me to come over to his house and play video games after 😂 Real nice kid! I think he'll remember that day for a long time

Helping people find lost jewelry is awesomeness!!!

[@DetectFlorida]

I agree!!

My husband never wore his wedding ring and now that hes gone, I wear it. Its so nice to see that these guys not only wear theirs but grieve their loss and so pleased to have them back. Lovely to see

[@sallyannchappell5671]

What I find so special is that you attract the kids when you are detecting. So important because it inspires the imagination of little minds, and the hobby keeps them outside and active

[@DetectFlorida]

Kids are always so curious as to what I'm doing and finding. I'm always happy to show them :)

[@romeoslover817]

Take the Cash into a bank. I think you can cash it out if you identify=a serial number.

[@jlj209]

I love seeing these rings returned and the appreciation in the owners.

[@The_Pretend_Elite]

Imagine all the heartache and sadness when those people lost their Rings watches and other personal valuables. I used to like this kind of metal detecting but I have a soft heart and I could not find the owners. I do like your channel and I do like treasure hunting. Just a lot of sadness is Unearthed at the beach😢

[@mittvarupptaget]

Yeah but honestly, why do people even go swimming with valuable jewelry?

[@pjtucker3170]

You are a stand up guy! Helping people recover their lost items has to be very rewarding. I really enjoy your channel and look forward to your new content. Keep up the good work!

I absolutely love watching you find and return jewelry to the owners. You're an amazing man. ❤

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much!

[@jennifergraham2760]

It still amazes me how often people will wear their precious, fine jewelry to the beach thinking that they won’t lose it. I learned a hard lesson over 30 years ago to never wear fine jewelry to the beach. I lost a precious gemstone from a ring my husband had given to me, I was utterly heartbroken. It’s nice to know that you return what you find 🤗

[@DetectFlorida]

I do whenever I can! I find so much that I can't ever give back

[@theresasauli973]

I love how quickly they all put the ring back on their finger! Just witnessing the facial expression is priceless! You’re truly an amazing guy! God Bless.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!!!

That kid on the bike reminds of the kid from the movie "The Incredibles", he's just waiting for something amazing to happen! 😂 5:34

[@LeslieKelley-gs4zj]

That was so much fun to watch! I physically could not do it so I am living vicariously thru you! I would have cried if I found that Tiff bracelet-soooo pretty! Your excitment is contagious!

[@DetectFlorida]

My mom cried when I gave it to her for Christmas :)

[@badapple65]

It is gut wrenching to lose a ring especially wedding or family heirloom rings. I once lost my wedding ring and realized it the morning after a nighttime boating outing where I figured of course that it flew off my hand when throwing some boat lines. Months later there it was, laying on the floor between my bed and nightstand. Had vacuumed plenty of times maybe it finally fell out of the bed frame. I must have pulled it off in my sleep that night which I’d never done in my sleep before timed with being on the water, how could I not think it was lost forever.

[@garymartin6066]

Love your finds and returns. So far I’ve found 3 iphones I’ve returned and 3 rings. The expression on the people’s faces when you return a ring or phone is worth more than hanging on to it; especially when it has sentimental value handed down from generations. And especially for a phone with all the personal info

[@StealynRP]

love the guys handshakes at 16 min lol

[@ieaturanium235]

I would LOVE to do this as a hobby, I'm not even interested of finding and selling expensive rings I just want to do it for the thrill of finding out what it could be. Also being able to return jewelry must be such an amazing feeling, jewelry can hold so much emotion and love.

[@richardhartwick8875]

Being landlocked in Texas, I'm detecting vicariously through your videos! Awesome work! God Bless!

[@Brenda.727]

Nice recap! Glad you mentioned how much time it takes. New hunters are thinking they will get gold in a week! 😂

[@TrashNTreasureDetecting]

Lol yep when people ask me how long to find gold , I say oh about 1k pull tabs later 😂

[@DetectFlorida]

I want to make the non-beach hunters aware of that! What you guys don't see on youtube is the countless hours that I put in where I find nothing!! haha

[@martynm7659]

100% respect returning jewellery to their owners, new subscriber❤

[@Rebellgentleman]

For the paper money that was nearly disintegrated by the water: Allow it to dry out and check to see if you have a portion of the bill with the serial number. If so, I'm nearly certain the bank will honor it and replace it. I think all you'll need is the serial number portion for any destroyed bill for replacement. This also goes for money that has seen fire damage, too.

[@dalewcrighton8083]

You need 51 percent of the bill for them to replace it. Since the serial number is on the bill twice, showing one of them would not work.

[@netamorton4832]

Shawn, you are the best! You have the best heart and only want people to be reunited with there lost jewelry! Like you said earlier in the video. It’s not every time you go out you find wonderful gold pieces but the thrill of the hunt is exciting! Keep up the great work!

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!! What people don't see on here is the countless hours and days of hunting where I came home with nothing. I really don't want people to think that I go out and find gold every time

[@ukpatriot]

You're such a true honest gentleman and you've got my subscription.

Man you kill it out there. I'm jealous of you beach guys you got it so easy compared us bastards here in Arizona. We have a huge long river that millions of people float down every year. Its super rocky and the ground is hard asf. Tons of rings out there but they aren't easy to find. Kudos! Good finds man.

[@davidguzman5097]

That's insane finding all those rings and gold jewelry. And even more insane are all those beautiful sea shells you're digging up. Can make some cool hand crafted items with those shells as well and make some money too. People love hand made crafts. I've seen some cool crafted items sold on the pier in Clearwater Beach. Very nice stuff...

I just returned from Lido Beach Florida. Saw a guy snorkeling metal detecting. Just out of curiosity I asked if he found any rings, he was a real snob. He said I don’t show anyone my finds because he don’t want people calling the cops saying his finds were theirs. I belong to a metal detecting club and I am a lot more friendlier than this ass. Congrats on your finds

[@DetectFlorida]

Thanks! That's too bad! I was detecting at Lido last night. Didn't find too much!

[@josephwagner9201]

@@DetectFlorida not surprised you didn’t find anything. Beach is thick with shells. My wife cut me off on the amount I could bring back to Kentucky. We stayed at Lido Beach Hotel. Very nice. Wish I could been there when you were detecting, would of loved to talk to you.

I love that you bless ppl and don’t charge when you find something ~ I believe God blesses you in return and allows you to find more things! I’m sure from time to time you’re hired and you get paid but I’ve seen you many times return items and not want any money- that is so cool!

They still do that, but I didn't have enough of the bigger bills left to exchange them. I wonder how much cash was in that bag when it was dropped into the water! Or why it was dropped in the water. Maybe an offering??

I live in the Carolinas, yet it was the Florida waters as a kid, that made me want to become a scuba diver, which I did. Watching these beach videos make me want to move back dosn there. If you ever want to move to a cabin in the the mountains (or just need to get away short-term from a hurricane), write me back. Pets welcome too. ~ just a cello player.

It really depends on the areas you plan on hunting. If you're hunting parks, yards, and sand, you can get away with a pretty inexpensive metal detector and still have a good machine. If you want to get into the saltwater, you'll have to spend a bit more money on a multi frequency machine

Hi! We have watched many of your videos and are fairly new to detecting (just over a year). Wondered if it might be possible for my wife & I to connect and detect with you sometime? I swing a Nox 800 and got a Manticore for my wife for Mother’s Day. We’re on the east coast, PB County & also Daytona area. Happy to go to west coast of FL to calmer water than we are used to detecting in and around. Thanks!
