I am a long time lurker, been detecting for a few years here and there on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. Never found much accept lots of clad and old junk. I figured I should register as I am going to start detecting an interesting site today which may yield some good stuff.
I have permission to detect a 1900 8 bedroom brothel/inn, saloon, which was in operation until the 1940's. It has had 4 owners and is still a hotel. The current owner has no knowledge it has ever been detected. The saloon was in the basement. Half of the basement has a dirt floor the other half in concrete. I am going to start in the dirt floor portion, the saloon has not been in use since right after prohibition. There is a huge grounds area with a court yard, flower beds and lots of fruit trees.
I have a Tesoro Compadre, 5.5 inch coil. Maybe this will be the site which yields some historic finds. I will likely spend months or years at this site.
