This is the first time that I have had to really test the new 6 inch coil
first I went to and old playground that my brother and I have hunted extensively with Whites XLT and minelab explorer
and the ctx with the stock coil.
in a two hour time was able to recover 32 coins and a 925 ring all in the 2-5 inch range in damp soil
the ring is marked 925 but appeared to have a layer of plate that was peeling off so i think it was Vermeer white gold over silver
it rang in 12-46 solid
the quarter is a 1934 Washington that rang in at 12-44 5 nickles at 12-15 and 5 dimes at 12-42
pennies were all memorials
then went to the older site that I have carefully gone over 4 times with the stock coil and had found several wheat's and 2 merc dimes
Today went over the exact same area and found 5 more wheats 1935-45 and the 1941 Washington.
progress was slow with the smaller coil but it was well worth it.
