15 inch coil used on minelabs.... see gravediggermax post about 60 posts down on this beach forum... click on the video and you will get a look the wot he is using on his explorer... wot--wonderful-orange - thing... i think thats what it stands for...
 
WOT, stands for Wild Orange Thing. It is a 15" DD(Double D) coil put out by Coiltek, and mainly used in Sov, Excal and I think some other Minelabs. It was the first bigger coil for Sovs and excals, and became popular. Kellyco and a few others sell them. Minelabs came up(I think) with the DD coil. Most minelabs have DD coils. Instead of having a cone shaped field of detection, a DD coil has 2 coils both with a D shape, and the middle, the whole middle is the detection area, so it is big rectangle or square going down, instead of a cone. In other words, finds more stuff! It is hard to get used to the pinpoint though.
 
Ok thinks
My second question is with the excalibur, between a 10" coil and a 15" coil ,in depth, how many I win ?

The WOT coil is much deeper than the stock coil and it can pinpoint well just off the tip without having to even use the pinpoint mode. Treasure_Hunter and Max of VA beach can tell you how to do this quickly.
