📏 Metal Detector Depth Explained – How Deep Can You Really Go?

• 🔍 Coil Size: Larger coils (e.g. 15") detect deeper – up to 16" for coins and 10+ feet for treasure pots!
• ⚙️ Technology Type: PI detectors like Minelab GPX 5000 outperform VLF in mineral-rich soil. Multi-IQ balances power and precision.
• 💰 Metal Composition: Silver and copper are easier to detect. Gold is harder but achievable with gold-tuned detectors.
• 📐 Target Shape: Flat and large targets are easier to detect deeper than small or upright objects.
• 🌧️ Soil Moisture & Mineralization: Wet soil boosts depth, while mineralization reduces it. Use proper ground balance.
• 🎓 Skill Matters: A well-trained operator with sensitivity control can reach much greater depths.

📌 Pro Tip: Detection depth is affected by multiple factors – from ground type to tuning skill. For professional-grade depth, consider the Minelab GPX series or Fisher Gemini-3.

• Depth Expectations:
  • 🎯 Coin (1 inch) → 8–15 inches
  • 🎯 Small pot → 2–3 feet
  • 🎯 Treasure box → 6–10+ feet
• Training & Sensitivity: Skilled tuning of sensitivity + ground balance increases maximum detection performance.

Note: Depth also depends on environmental interference, target corrosion, EMI, and user skill. For deeper results, Minelab Manticore, Fisher F75 or Fisher Gemini 3 are preferred.
