Just purchase this new DD 10.5 inch 7.5kHz, my stock 9 inch is back at the factory for repair. I just got the new coil today and I noticed target were sounding much different than my stock coil. Is there any secrets I need to know? I'm heading out tomorrow. I realize the larger coil is probably great for relic, but I'll be coin hunting. Any comments?

How is the DD 10.5 inch coil work at coin shooting

Bill.....I have been using the DD 7.5KHz coil for about 8 months. In my way of thinking the X-Terra-70 with the DD 7.5KHz makes for a perfect match. I recovered a large cent (184
at 10" and a Barber dime (1906) at 9". Both coins were about 5ft apart. I have recovered over $40.00 in clad from a Boy Scout camp. I rarely used all medal mode when hunting coins. I use mode 1. By using mode 1 I not only find coins but don't miss rings and other lost items.
Most of the time I use two tones and hunt slowly. TomB
I have tried to edit this 3 time: should read 1848 at 10"

Hi Bill, I have been using the 10.5 DD 7.5 coil since they first came out with it a little over 2 an 1/2 years ago and I have never put the stock coil back on since I got it. I'm a coin shooter and I hunt " hard hit " old parks, schools, farm fields and the woods. Once you get use to the coil I think your going to love it and it doesn't take long to get use to it. The way i PP with the coil is I do a tight wiggle and pull it back to me and when the sound stops the target well be at the front edge of the coil. If you PP that way on a quarter signal and the numbers take a dive just before the sounds quites, 9 times out of 10 it's going to be a rusty bottle cap.
Good Luck with the new coil and have fun.
