Does the amount of voltage supplied to the coil affect depth? (Greater than 0 of course.)

Your talking a mute point! The coil transmits out an RF signal which is measured in watts. This signal is regulated by the FCC. Frank

The word is moot, not mute. Voltage is part of the watts equation. The FCC rules have no bearing on detector power transmission. Yes, if you increase the power to the coil, you increase the depth of detection, but only to a certain point (which has been reached long ago). The problem is that when you put too much signal power into the ground, you get so much background noise that you begin losing depth until it's useless.
