Hello Jay, Welcome to the wonderful world of Metal detecting. My name is Terry and I live in Shasta Lake and I have been Metal Detecting for about 13 years and I have done really well but lately I have been busy with my job and lacking places to hunt, If you have any ideas of places to go just let me know and maybe we could go hit them sometime. Good Luck and Happy Hunting.
OLDEST COIN FOUND METAL DETECTING IS 1836 LIBERTY CAP QUARTER

Hello: Do not pay attention about people who say they can pay @ whiskeytown for a metal detector permit, NO metal detector USE on Whiskey Town Property! The Ranger swooped down on me last Summer when my son and I were walking on the side of the road, I had my metal detector in a case, I was warned metal detectors are not allowed in whiskey town, I happened to be Off Hwy 299 & Trinity Road Half way before entering French Gulch. I also has a "No parking day fee" warning ( thought I was in French Gulch and the area was NOT marked "Day use fee required".) Tip: There is a lot of (BLM), Breau of land management areas which do allow metal detecting! Also check for "private property" posted signs. I would never try Brandy Creek, Whiskey Town Lake(s) on map. The Fish & Game and the forest rangers Dress in Camo! and I saw them pull cars over and issue speeding Tickets on Eureka/Hwy 299 WhiskeyTown. Watch out!

I'm sure you couldn't detect in Old Shasta as it's a historical site, and as I understand it, you can't detect in any historical site in California.
Swazey Road has a park in shasta and dry gulch off Hwy 99 are in Shasta and Metal Detecting is allowed in the parks also all BML land.
