5 Inch Accelerator coil find

[Coinseeker 78]

The item is not much but was found 7 inches deep with the 5 inch Accelerator coil. I was testing it for depth and was surprised to find several clad coins at 6 to 8 inches deep. I believe I will use it more in junky areas. The stone is glass and the finish is plated silver I believe. I also found a piece of iron at the depth of my X1 pinpointer which is about nine inches. It rang up as silver. The depth scale was clear below the bottom on several finds but could still be pinpointed on the coil.

Old post but I find the same thing....5" Excelerator is STUPIDLY deep!! I read a thing once over on another forum from a really well known guru. It goes like this....
The machine has a certain amount of energy in the TX circuit that it puts out,no matter the coil size you're using. So..a large coil will put out a bigger footprint,but more diluted of an energy field. A tiny coil will get really good depth because the concentration of energy is so much greater,and I.D. Is more accurate for the same reason. The small coil is a laser,the large one is a flashlight....
All I know is my Excelerator is tiny and I love it because it still gets those deep targets. It's just slow going is all. Who's going fast anyway in dense trash?? The thing is a BEAST!!
