M6 Owners - Depth Question on Coin Hunting

How deep could an M6 be expected to go in lightly to medium mineralized ground? What can be done to increase depth? What difference would a 10X12 SEF coil make, if any? I realize that leaves a lot of variables to deal with, but in general what can be expected and what help is available?
 
I just pulled a dime from an honest 8 inches in wet ground with a 5.3 coil today with my M6. It was very faint and I took off several inches of ground above it to see if I could hear it better. After I did it rang a solid 78 so I figured it for a dime. My deepest hit with my M6 was probably about 9 inches (a clad quarter) in wet, sandy soil and I got a nickel once at about 7 inches. Still, I also understand that I might be missing far shallower stuff.
 
Thanks for the info guys. That at least gives me some ideas of what to expect.
