Neat stuff Billy. You plan on going to find some of the gold nuggets lying about in Australia?

When you say Aussie decimal coins... is that relating to coins after AU got rid of the british system and starting using money in the same decimal system the US uses?

I work with a guy from AU who is a coin collector, and he recently told me about that.

Pre-Decimal is 1966 onwards, when the Australian Government got rid of Australian Pounds etc and introduced the Australian Dollar and Cents

Good looking site you have there Billy, so nice to see stuff on West Australia for a change. Wish I didnt have to work for a living, would love to detect more often. One day, One day.
Thanks for the tips earlier about reading the beaches. Will be down there with my X Terra 70 soon, maybe sunday this weekend. Keep up the good work on the site.

Nice looking site Billy! I liked the photos of your old bottles. I'm an avid collectors of bottles (all dug up by me) and relics. Your webpage is designed nicely too!

Thumbs up Western Australia - Lost and Found Jewellery Recovery

Professional Treasure Hunting and Metal Detecting Services - Western Australia - Lost and Found Jewellery Recovery

I specialise in finding your Lost Jewellery in all areas of Western Australia - Country and Metro areas.

Have you Lost your Treasure Wedding Ring? Lost Your Medi Alert Bracelet? Or have you Lost your Valuable Watch? Sentimental Pieces of Jewellery? You know what I mean!

If you have lost anything metal, such as Rings, Earrings, Watches, all pieces of Metallic Jewellery which is of great sentimental value to yourself or your family, you can hire me for the possible retrieval of your lost item.

I am based in Rural Western Australia about 300kms South East of Perth and I frequent the Perth Metro area quite often and I am happy to help find your lost jewellery if I have a free schedule.

I am available to all areas of Western Australia to a certain degree.

Recovery of your lost jewellery will depend on the following points listed below.

What I need to know:
1. Weather Conditions - especially wind and stormy weather conditions.
2. Water and Tidal Movements
3. Depth of water you lost your jewellery in. I only shallow detect to around 2m
4. Whether you keep your lost jewellery a secret and not blurt it out to passing or curious people.
5. Do you know the exact or approximate place you lost your Ring or Jewellery piece?
6. The sooner you let me know, the quicker we may be able to find it.
7. There are other things also which I may need to ask you.

Success will depend on you getting in touch with me as soon as possible, if you lost your item at the beach it will depend on weather, tides and if you lost your Ring or Watch etc under water or on the sand.

I specialise in Shallow Water Metal Detecting and Land Metal Detecting.

Shallow Water Examples
Beach Metal Detecting Recovery
Lake Metal Detecting Recovery
Estuary Metal Detecting Recovery
River Metal Detecting Recovery
Dam Metal Detecting Recovery
Pond Metal Detecting Recovery

Land Examples
House and Land Metal Detecting Recovery
Backyard Metal Detecting Recovery (Forgotten Buried Lifesavings by elderly and alzheimers affected people)
Garden Metal Detecting Recovery
Ghosttown Metal Detecting Recovery
Picnic Spot Metal Detecting Recovery
Kids Playground Metal Detecting Recovery

Perth Area examples for searching for your lost items

Scarborough Beach, Trigg Beach, Leighton Beach, Rockingham Beach, South Beach, Swan River, Kings Park etc

I go Metal Detecting every couple days usually, and I have found many many pieces of Jewellery, Coins, Rings, Gold and Silver pieces.

Your cost for this service?

My Professional Lost Jewellery Recovery Service is based a “Reward Only Service” what the item is worth to you and what you would offer as a ”Reward” to have it found.

I am the only person in Western Australia who offers this "Reward Only Service"

Others will charge you anywhere up to $100 per hour and still not find your lost Jewellery!

However I must cover my fuel expense to make it out to you, regardless if its found or not. I will provide a Two Fuel Receipts when I meet you, the first will be from when I left my home, and the second will be when I fill my vehicle up at the search destination.

Depending on the destination I leave from, the cost of my travel could vary, but as an example it could be anywhere between $100 and $150 on average for me to come to you and to return to my destination which is located 300km South East of Perth.

But don’t let that turn you off, I am 3 hours away, and that is not that far … but if your lucky I may already be in the Metro area or where ever you live!
I have decided to start this website so I can catalogue all of my finds on the internet for myself, friends, and visitors to see what I find on my adventures through out parts of Western Australia on my Treasure Hunting trips. I also started this Treasure Hunting site, so I can help others find their precious lost jewellery.

I will help find your precious jewellery including rings, watches, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, toerings, house keys and even valuable coins and treasure your grandparents or parents may have buried in the backyard for safe keeping.
If you would like me to offer Lost Jewellery Hunting Services out, feel free to contact me anytime.

If you would like to use my Professional Jewellery and Treasure Hunting services, feel free to contact me anytime.

Cheers
Bill Sherman

Holy cow Billy - you are a real go-getter!!! Love the web site, complete with their own forums to boot - very nicely put together!

With a work ethic like that I couldn't imagine that you won't have success. Best of luck to you in this business venture!
