Michael Oliver would hunt for lost metal as a hobby while working as a forklift driver.Now he works on Sydney's beaches and in its surrounding oceans retrieving peoples' precious items.This as-told-to essay is based on a transcribed conversation with Michael Oliver, who uses metal-detecting equipment to retrieve lost items in Sydney, Australia. It has been edited for length and clarity.
I've been doing it professionally for seven years now. I called my business Lost Jewellery Recovery rather than naming it as a metal-detecting service, because jewellery is the main thing clients call me to recover. Where I start searching depends on where the client last remembers having the item, the tides, and the weather.Sometimes I find lost jewellery in five minutes or less. Other times, it might take two hours. It all depends on weather conditions, tides, and if the owner felt the item slip off them — giving me an estimated radius of where the item may be. Every Sydney lifeguard has my number.
At the moment, we're in the height of Sydney's summer, and everyone's out on the beaches, so I'm busier than ever — up to six calls a day, mainly to various busy beaches. Everything is locked up, but not at my property, because too many people know where I live now. There are thousands of items of unclaimed jewellery there. I've never sold any of it. I'm very proud of that. It's not my jewellery — it's theirs.
