Paul, I use the 5 inch coil you have and it always rewards me with something I missed with the larger coils. Move slow and watch the results.
This is not a coil you will use for your normal detecting, but for those trashy area you will love it as it will see many coins that other detector or coil will miss in trash.
I have one and may not used it much this year, but last years I used it at many well worked area that was trashy and did well with it.

Good coil!
Paul,
I have this coil on a XS and it is my coil of choice. I hunt a lot of trashy parks and around some older homes, so the stock coil is hard to use. I have made several good finds with this coil. For a small coil, it has pretty good depth and like someone else pointed out, it pinpoints well. I have found a penny at 8" with it. The only bad thing I have to say about it is that the depth meter is not accurate with this coil. When something reads out as being about six inches deep, it's usually at 3", or about half of what the scale reads.
