Relic-Hunting and Coin-Shooting
with the Optional 11” DD Searchcoil
While the Gold Bug
®
is a high performance, specialized gold prospecting metal
detector, it is also a good multi-purpose detector. With the purchase of an 11”
DD searchcoil, you can bring more power to your coin-shooting and relic-
hunting searches.
The standard 5” Gold Bug
®
searchcoil is engineered for precision and is best at
finding the smallest gold nuggets that most other gold prospecting detectors
would miss.
If you want a larger sweep area and deeper detection, the 11” DD should be
considered.
Advantages of the 11” DD searchcoil are:
1. Deeper detection
2. Broader sweep (cover more area in less time)
For information about the 11”DD searchcoil
(Part# 11COIL-GB, MSRP=$199.95),
Please call 800-685-5050.
