[QUOTE="Upside, post: 433381, member: 9866"] Here's an example that comes to my mind. My xterra 705 came with a 7x5 inch coil. Relatively small but according to minelab this is the gold searching coil. Now I'm in a park only looking for coins...not bush looking for gold. Imo the xterra isn't a real gold detector...but thats irrelevant. I didn't purchase it as a gold detector anyway. So I went and purchased a 15 inch coil. Boom. My ground coverage went from 7x5 , to 15x15. Times that extra coverage by say a 5 hour hunt. My example is probably in lamens terms. Mono vs DD etc , but I've done a heck of a lot better with that 15 inch coil then I ever did with the 7x5. :Y: [/QUOTE]
