That is now a very rare coil that's not from a Gold Bug, just the same mold was used. It's a Fisher X-series eliptical that's no longer made but really nice to have. A bit heavy since it's solid, but I like it for coverage & depth....
I'm also now testing another coil that was made for the X-series that is also no longer made. It's a DD coil which I thought never existed on the 1200 series. But a foreign company made them under the "Excellerator" name. I was going to make a post to show it later. I can hit targets with the 1270 in my test bed & still lift the coil another 6" off the ground. The 1270 is crazy deep and sadly gets forgotten as we play with all these target ID features.....
HH,
Bill
