how is the deleon with the 12 x 10 coil?

[amcjavelin]

any of you deleon owners tried the 12 x 10 coil just wanted opinions and thoughts

Jav, just to cover more area it ok, but I didn't see any advantages in depth. I definately preferred the cleansweep even though it didn't get the depth of the 12x10, with that 3x18 i was amazed by the stuff i missed with the stock coil.

bought a brand new one and there s this one spot i've been going to for the last three years and i keep finding old coins got my first buffalo nickel today! which is kinda of weird because the last new deleon i bought got me a 1912 V-nickel which was a first, love these machines!

I had a 10 x 12 on my Cortes, used it a few times and sold it. Too heavy and too much ground chatter. No better depth on a dime, 1" better on a quarter.

Yes ground chatter is right. Have to turn SENS so low to quieten it down that I get the same depth as the CleanSweep on MAX SENS. The 10x12 is extremely quiet at near MAX SENS on the Silver uMax and depth is excellent.
