Michigan Badger said:1968 with a Whites CoinMaster IV. Before that I used searched the dirt or eyeballed finds while swimming underwater at the local swimming hole. My first diving find find was in about 1958, a sterling silver ring, and I still have it today.
Back in those days few people believed there was anything worth digging. People had almost no concept of the amount of stuff that is lost.
Even today I'd say that about 60% of the population thinks we're nuts for metal detecting.
