What is the deepest coin you've dug with the X-70 and which coil were you using?

[Dan(NM)]

I was just curious as to what kind of depths coins are being dug with the X-70, which coils are getting the depth and what types of soil conditions your digging in. Thanks.

i've been digging quite a few coins at least a foot deep with both the 10x5 dd and the concentric coil, they where also very loud and i reckon could have got them deeper if they were deeper

For me probably 6-8". We have very hard red clay here.

I did dig a big ole piece of pipe at over a foot, I kept hoping it was the motherlode, Beale.

MY deepest coin was about 10 - 11" with the 10.5 DD - 7.5 kHz coil. I got a button at a solid 13" with the same coil, the button was about the size of a nickel. Both tones were clear and I'm sure the machine will go deeper under the same conditions and with the same coil. Ron
