One of my crazy hobbies is metal detecting- about 25 years ago I was metal detecting some homes in San Jose that they were planning to tear down for the expansion of a hi-way. Out of about 50 homes 5=10 may have had families still living in them at the time. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a Hispanic lady watching me. After about an hour she approached me- she spoke English about as poorly as I speak Spanish. After a bit of a struggle to communicate I figured out she was telling we she had lost her wedding ring in her front yard while washing her car years ago. Went to her home and after 2 hours of searching I found it. She couldn't believe I fond it- perhaps more shocked that I gave it to her. The entire family and the family that lived next door came out and thanked me. Hadn't found anything of value that day - but their joy was my gift/find.
Find someone with a good metal detector ( not a cheap Radio Shack or Costco unit) - if it's in your lawn / flower beds etc- they will find it. Wish I could help you but I am in NO CA.
