I have not posted here in a long time. Well I dusted off the XS last weekend and found 11 Wheaties and a 1880 Indian. I was finding a lot of clad 5 inches deep. I knew there had to be some silver in this area but it might be just out of reach of the stock coil. I ordered a SEF 10 X 12 and it came in this weekend. 26 degrees this morning and the ground was frozen solid so I went fishing till noon. The temps warmed up a little so I got out and and gave the new coil a try. I was able to run the detector manual 27 with the new coil. The stock coil I had to run at 21. I focused only on deeper targets today and came home with 20 Wheaties, 2 Mercs, 1 Washington, and a small silver ring. I'm happy with this new coil and can't wait to get back out.

Thanks. I just found out 3 other people were hunting the same spot this past weekend. I wonder if they did as well as I did. Maybe I will have some company this coming weekend.
