I have been taking new medicines for my recent illness and after 10 days of taking it, I am feeling slightly better. Yesterday I was able to hunt for two hours with the 5 incher and took it to the perfect place to try it. Old park that was a school until 1960 or so. I found my oldest coin here with the 11 inch dd coil here last month, but the trash was thick. The second coin yesterday was a 1924 wheat and it was 6 inches deep. I use little disc(15 and was able to run the sens in the low 90's) I ended up with one more wheat along with 12 clad coins. Today I felt almost normal health wise so I headed for the county fairgrounds at daylight. The first two coins I found were older wheats that were pushing 7 inches deep in trash! I purposely hunted the exact section where I found 2 Barbers and 6 indians with my Etrac. I didn't expect to find these wheats, but I was pleasantly surprised. I did not find hardly any clad and I finally got a solid 72 number that somewhat locked. It pinpointed like a coin and the depth was boucning between 5 and 6 which is normally a 8 inch target. I had a feeling it would be an indian and it was. It was 7 inches deep! I ended my morning with one more wheatie. I have tried small coils with every detector I have owned and I have owned them all, and without a doubt, the Omega 5 inch coil is one of the best. The Omega is a made to order coin detector and the small coil set-up is going to be one of my favorites.

Omega 5 Inch Coil-WOW!

I have always favored smaller-than-stock coils, especially in dense trash. Some makes and models have coils under 6"-7" that just seem a bit lacking. Not so with the 5" Omega coil, and what's surprising to me is that it's a Double-D design and still gets great performance! I love the 5" coil and love the Omega as well. 
All the best to you.

Monte,
I agree with you on the Omega 5"DD coil. I find a lot of coins in trash areas that I couldn't find
with the 11"DD coil. The 11"DD works great in other areas with not as much trash.
