chioce of coil use

[Nock]

This summer I am going to search some local parks for rings and jewelry. I have the 6 inch and 9 inch high frequency coils, which of these 2 coils might be the better choice to hunt with? Thanks for any input

Trashy park use the small coil, But....I have 2 HF coils, the 6" and the Elliptical. I only used the 6" while waiting for ML to replace the Elliptical....That said, I use the Elliptical in parks and the beach all the time.

The 6-inch will separate better, as it is a DD coil. The 9-inch concentric will likely hunt deeper than the 6-inch, if the soil is moderately mineralized. However, if your local parks are as full of trash as those where I hunt, there is no doubt I'd be covering it first with the 6-inch DD. If I happen to hit some areas with little or no trash, I'd go back over it with the larger coil, hoping to find deeper targets. JMHO HH Randy.

What Digger said! Also, the 6" HF DD coil loves gold, nickels and very tiny objects!

I have a ton of snow and sub below zero temps for most of this winter I am looking forward to detecting weather,
