Big coils.......
- Thread starter Mike from MI "Iron Brigade"

I have the 14 and 18 inch Excellerators. They both work fine, they are very stable and pinpoint without any problems.
The 18 is sensitive to small items and pinpoints targets well. I rarely take the 18" coil off, it covers alot of ground. I do alot of private properties which are mowed lawns and smooth terrain. In the weeds or woods, I use the 14 or the stock coil due to the resistance of swinging the 18 through the vegetation.
The coil is heavy but I don't mind that, I'm used to it though. I haven't found any dimes at 22 inches deep or whatever the advertising claims are, I'm very satisfied with the coils and would recommend them without hesitation.
I hope this was helpful... George

George,
You ever find a dime at 22" you better send us some pictures. The copy you refer to is a typo that keeps popping up no matter how many times I have had it deleted.
What was found at 22' was a quarter, in our sandy non-mineralized soil, at at old navy air base in Sanford Fl. with one of the first production coils.
Another deep coin find was another quarter found in Indiana at 18". I am sure there are more deep finds but the depths will be relative to the soil mineralization of the different areas.

and really love the ability to detect a yard in no time at all. It is also very sensitive to gold jewelry and coins. I did a front and back yard once of my girl friend's dad's home and only have about a half hour at the most. Put the WOT one, dug a pocket full of coins in that short amount of time and one very nice gold ring.

Mike, if you can handle the big 18" then that is the way to go. This coil pinpoints well and has extreme depth. For a coil this big, it is very stable. I found a few caches with this coil and I did find a standing Lib quarter at 18 inches deep near an old foundation. I recommend this coil to anyone wanting extreme depth with the Explorer.
