    Old Minelab coil...

    You are so right. Mine on my Sovereigns are all 6 pin like yours, I think when I put inn my order for new ones I thought I grabbed one of the 5 Pins by mistake and order 10 more of the same 5 pins and it is what I was looking at when answering . Sure glad I didn't sell any and didn't put one...

    Old Minelab coil...

    The Picture you posted is a 6 pin connector, but is it for your Sovereign Elite, the reason I say is I have used all the different Sovereigns and everyone I have seen are 5 pin and not 6 pin connector. Take a look on your Sovereign Elite control box and see it is 5 or 6 as pin as this coil you...

    Old Minelab coil...

    As I said they should be 5 pin connectors as I have some on my desk in the bag and are CB plug 5 Pin Female printed on the bag. these plug are hard to solder on as it is small and have to use a smaller tip solder pencil soldering tool.

    Old Minelab coil...

    On the Sovereign coil that fit all the Sovereigns mine all have only 5 wire plug connectors and there is only 4 wires connected I believe number 5 is the one that has no wire connected to it. I never seen a horseshoe coil as they were on the Excalibur and were waterproof Minelab used on the...

    Hello there!

    The Sovereigns are a great detector, but does take patience to learn this detector, but when you do learn it you will see what many that didn't give up on it is really doing great. I have tried all the different Sovereigns and the first one which was the original Sovereign I didn't like after...

    Anyone hear from Terry Shannon ???

    Terry is a good friend of mine from our detecting club we are in. He is one of a kind and his stories are great to read about. Normally he post his adventures on Face book and when he does I know he has many friends and has had his post hacked so he may not post like he used to. Tried to find...

    Potential Sovereign user questions.

    Itis nice to see there is a few of us that can see the power this detector has, but it does take a while to learn how to use it. As far as coils the original Coinsearch was the best to learn the Sovereign with, but wasn't waterproof , the 8 inch Sun-ray for me got a bit deeper but didn't have...

    BBS Connector
