Hi John,
Hey I agree that the Coinstrike is one deep machine. With the stock 8" coil it sees and even ID's with a fair amount of accuracy coins that can only be seen by the 1270 using a 10.5" coil and Advantage with the 12.5" coil. This is a good thing!!
I ran across a small area last spring that happened to have coins and other goodies down at the 10-12"+ range and had a ball using all three of the machines one after the other cleaning out that spot. Dug some wheats and a couple silver coins and one old silver ring with a large opal mounted in it, all at depths in excess of 10". The Coinstrike gave good hits on most sweeps with excellent tone and ID accuracy on those targets. For depth and accurate ID of coins at depth the C$ is hard to beat for sure!
The Coinstrike will find stuff the Advantage misses I agree, but the reverse also holds true in many of the conditions I hunt in. Thats why I have both. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt="
