Well, I finally got to try out the 18" x 15" SEF "butterfly" coil at the beach.
My first impression: it's big, it's heavy, and it goes DEEP!!
I went to a spot on a local ocean beach (in Northern California) where recently there had been some sand movement and using my Excalibur I had pulled out over 50 old silver coins, including 5 silver half dollars, 2 gold rings, and hundreds of clad coins. This time back at the beach it was sanded in, but I was hoping the Explorer outfitted with the 18"x15" SEF coil could pull up some deep goodies.
After scooping a couple of deep clad quarters, I got a weak but repeatable signal and down well over a foot pulled a Walking Liberty Half! It
