The Minelab SD2100v2
Each Monoloop coil consists of only one coil of wire and gives a detection
pattern similar to a concentric coil. Each Double ‘D’ coil contains two
D-shaped coils of wire, which overlap and produce a ‘blade’ like detection
pattern (see Figure 9).
The following table summarises the characteristics of each coil:
