New SEF 10 x 12 coil popped out some BIG SILVER on the 4 hour maiden voyage

[silverfreak]

After an hour with absolutely NOTHING in my pouch...I started to get frustrated ...but then realized I have pounded this site with every coil I have. Hours 2 thru 4 were hoppin' though.
First silver with the SEF coil was a Barber dime at 8" ...and there was a pulltab ON top of it.
I then picked up a few 7" to 8" wheaties...then a deepie at close to 10" down.
Plugged along and the coil was very stable the whole time. I then got a fairly solid silver hit...but it only sounded one way...yet it repeated every pass. I dug down and saw a nail in the bottom side of the hole ...then ran the probe...yippee!...silver sound I popped out another chunk of dirt...then rubbed the bottom of the hole with my fingers....BIG SILVER ... lying perfectly flat at the bottom of the hole. Pulled her out...stared at her...then ran the probe in the hole...another silver hit. I thought I was going to get 2 halves in one hole....but it wasn't to be. It WAS however a silver 1937 Washington quarter. My first big silver pocket spill in years.
The little tiny ring was found down about 8" and also had a pulltab in there with it I l@@ked and l@@ked for the stone...but never found it Oh well...it is marked Sterling
After running water over the Walker...man is it a beauty...the nicest one I've ever found
Sorry for cutting this post short...but work time is here.
The SEF 10 x 12 coil was very STABLE...SEPARATED very well.....felt much LIGHTER than I expected it to...and went DEEP on a couple of wheaties...almost 10" down on two of them. This coil is a KEEPER for me and will fit well into my arsenal.

Bryce,
Some great coins. Never heard of the SEF coil. How does this coil compare to the WOT? I have a 15" WOT and really don't think it does any better than the stock 10.5. It would be really cool to pull some silver from some sites here in Ohio that I know have silver coins just beyond the reach of the stock coil.

Thanks Bob. It just came to the U.S. a few days ago. Minelab also has a new 11" coil out for the explorer series and many picked up that coil. It came out about a week before the SEf coils did. Everyone I've talked to says they love the new minelab coil. I haven't tried it yet...as I just got the sef coil. I don't have enough hunt time on it yet to know if it goes deeper than the stock coil...but it really separates well.

 

[silverfreak]

silverfreak, where did you get your SEF from. Are they selling them in the states yet?

Kellyco has them...they just came in last week.

man you find awesome stuff, congrats!

Thanks brother

Nice digs! Love that big silver.

Thanks Randy

A Walking Liberty half, Barber dimes, and other silvers...you are kicking some serious park buttocks, big guy! I see another Barber half coming soon, and another Seated or two.

Keep it up, Bryce!

Kyle

Thanks Kyle. A park buttocks kicker has a nice ring to it

Congrats on a great hunt Bryce,That big silver is looking good !!!!!!! I got to take out the minelab pro coil and its awesome if silver is in the ground it will tell you.I will post later this weekend.If you get a chance to try one go for it.One thing I like about it is it not round on the bottom and when you sit your detector down it dont fall over.Im glad you like the new coil and I hope that you find more big silver or a nice large cent !!!!!Have a good one and Good luck on your next hunt.

Thanks G. I will probably try the pro coil before long....but right now I'm concentrating on popping some silver out with the SEF coil

Hello SF!
Awesome story! Awesome finds! (again)

According to my reads, Excelerator's SEF coils have been available in Europe for quite some time. And, they are getting really good reviews. As you may remember, I too am an Excelerator fan. I can't help but wonder if the new design is for direct competition against Nexus? One thing's for certain; the price is right.

Hey Super Minelab Man (Derek)!
I've used Minelab's FBS-1050 for a short time and their new coil (Minelab's 11" Pro coil) IMO,
is quite a bit more sensitive.

Take care, enjoy the 4th!

Terrific finds as usual! Those Explorers are impressive machines in the hands of those that learn it well! It appears that you are one of those! Keep up the good work.

 

[silverfreak]

very nice job on your silver pocket spill! Looks like you are getting closer to a gold coin everytime that you go out! Just keep on dreaming for the gold .

I'd load my drawers if a gold coin popped out ...I'd better just stick to silver

Way to go Bryce! Big silver is always fun to see in the bottom of the hole!! I can see already that I need to get the new coil. Keep cool and dont stop diggin'. 8)

Thanks JRS. This one isn't the new minelab coil...it's the new detech SEF 10 x 12 coil.

Hey Silverfreak. really nice Silver finds that coil seems to be working great for you.

Yeo...it's doin' the job
