I have read a lots of the older post ( I try and do my research before I bother you guys with questions) and watched several YouTube videos on the subject but there still doesn't seem to be a clear consensus so I ask anyway. I have a ATGOLD with the stock 5x8 coil which I see a lot of people say high praises about. Iv'e also heard that a larger coil will go deeper and cover more ground. I watched the videos on the
Nel tornado coil on the ATGOLD and it seems to be a good combination. It seem that here in southern Virginia, things that Iv'e found are not too deep so finding items 2 feet deep isn't an issue. That being said, Is a larger coil going to give me any significant difference in day to day relic hunting? Iv'e been metal detecting for years with a old White's Coinmaster but until I bought this new Garrett I didn't know just how much I don't know about kHz and all the other technical terminology with the new detectors out there. It's kind of like going from a 1970 F100 to a 2018 F250 with all the bells and whistles. Any thought or suggestions will be appreciated.
