what coils are best for the delta 4000 and what uses?

[mr.thumb]

I just bought a delta 4000 and would like to know what other coils I should get to enhance my hunting? I do mostly coins and some beach searches, and looking forward to nugget detecting this summer. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have been using a BH 505 and have the 4 inch and 10 inch coils for that as well as the standard 8 inch. Thanks guys.

I have the 11" DD and the stock 10". I prefer the stock 10". I may get the 5" later on down the road for heavy trash but the stock one seems to do a pretty good job.
Hope that helps.

Thanks Bart, when my new machine gets here next week I will have some fun learning a new detector, but I don't know about how it will do in beach, dry and wet sand etc. Any thoughts?

Mike,

I like the Delta, but I have more than one detector. I have more than one because, well, I guess I like more than one, but also because each detector and search coil combo can provide different strengths and be functional for different applications. I'll offer my personal opinions belore.

The Delta 4000 was design as a 'turn-on-and-go" detector intended primarily for coin hunting use. Yes, it can be used to hunt relics, but I personally feel a 'basic' design of the delta makes a great general-use Coin Hunting detector.

As such, I have found the stock 8" coil to be a very good general-use coil on the Delta. I have used the elliptical 10" (9
