    Hey Mike:

    There are a lot of good books on the topic to be found access free at your local library. You can also usually find a number of good reference books at any of the stores in your area that carry metal detectors and other mining supplies and equipment. They almost always have books and manuals for people who specialize in finding coins/jewelry or who refine their searches to specifically gold, silver and other precious metals. You should be able to find a book or two that covers the state of Washington telling you the history and where abouts of gold and other metal discoveries in your state or specific area. It's just a matter of doing the legwork to find the books and manuals. Once you do, a whole world of potential opens up to you. It can be VERY exciting and rewarding. The very first time my son and I took ours out, we found a 2+ ounce glob of pure silver. Now, we use ours to explore Alaska for gold. GREAT fun! Enjoy it. And good luck!

    It is really advisable that you have to consider the location on where to metal detect. It is also important that you have to do a research regarding the history of the place you decide to metal detect. Swimming areas are most likely jewelries and coins tend to lost. Old churches as well is a good place to metal detect.

    Bridges have tonnes of metal on them, start there. Alternatively you could try lamp posts or cars, i'm pretty sure they're made of metal too so you will have an easy time detecting them then go home and get a real hobby.
