NEL Hunter 12.5 x 8.5 inch DD search coil on a metal detector stem

Overview

Made for ground heavily littered with iron.

It is extremely light for its size, only 490 g, and agile. It is highly sensitive to large, medium and especially small targets on trashy sites: recently abandoned settlements, beaches and parks. Recommended as a replacement for the stock coil.

Compatible Garrett metal detectors

  • ACE Apex

Made specifically for Garrett ACE Apex.

Where it works best
Sites with a lot of iron in the ground: lost villages and farmsteads, old estates, former fairgrounds, beaches and parks. Its agility and sensitivity to small targets let you pick coins out between iron where a large coil can't single out a good target among the iron.
Recommended for
Beginners and experienced detectorists.
