Great test, I only have the stock coil and I'm going to get the smaller one, but I wait for the LG24 to be avaiable and wait for your tests vs the LG15 to choose.🤤I rarely do parks, (forest and beach mostly) but sometimes I felt the need for a smaller coil (scanning near metal fence).
man i really admire your knowledge you are really good at teaching ive been swinging my lg30 and getting good hits on soccer field but what you just taught me i will definitly put my 6 inch coil back on for trashy areas cause i can dig alot more targets for that jewelry plus i always stay in the 15-20 khz all the time ty again i love your videos and study them you are really good and know what you are talking about.
Keep it up and you will find some gold soon John. We use the LG24 coil and have been finding deeper targets too. We have been killing it on the gold with the Legend in 20khz. Multi frequency is pretty much useless on the Legend in our soil.
I found a 1927 mercury dime yesterday with my legend at the park that coin was super deep to...the legend is a great machine it's awesome...keep those great videos coming super freak
It would be an interesting test to see what frequency works best on big 1 oz. gold and the small coil. If you have a Noise Cancel option, every time you change the Mode, Frequency, Recovery Speed (Reactivity) or Sensitivity we should Noise cancel for optimal detector performance. I've been doing some research on Ground Balancing. I think for Air Testing, or detecting on Dry Sand, use Manual Ground Balance and set it to Zero. Thanks for the Gold/Frequency/Coil demonstration, love your educational videos!
There used to be a hunter here in my locale that used a Fisher Gold Bug 2 with 6.5” coil at the parks….it wasn’t my style of turf hunting (I’m an old coin/artifacts hunter in the turf), but he’d regularly find a piece of gold at our parks. I think the GB2 has an operating freq of 70-71 KHz.
MAN you are the mecca of knowledge. I hunt a river here in AZ almost exclusively. There is tons of jewelry in it. My problem is knowing where the jewelry ends up when dropped. I tend to find most in the water. Mainly in the pathetic that River takes the tubers. I am struggling to find gold with the nox 900. Should I go single freq, multi, gold is eluding me. And I am an experienced detectors. THANKS MAN!
You are absolutely right, the smaller coil will find more and better stuff. I received my LG 24 coil last week (the 9.5 * 6" coil) and went on a hunt with it this weekend. I dug a lot less trash and a lot more interesting stuff. The response of the small coil is a lot snappier and less vague as the 11" coil. If you have some cash to splash, do so on the LG24 coil. You won't regret it!
Very interesting, thanks Jeremy. Now I'm not sure what to do at the beach! Maybe I should try 20 or 40khz. I'm on the stock coil and thought I'd want the new bigger coil, but maybe that's a bad idea!?!
Hey, PS, have you experimented with the prospecting mode, in the park, using the 6 inch coil? I’m sure you have. I know, as you mentioned, your soil is very hot with iron.
Hi Paysteak Superfreak. Maybe im wrong but i don't see much differences (deep or identify objects) using single or multi frequency in beach soil. Maybe multi frequency are even better in my case. Do you think that the soil might be the reason or i am totally wrong?
I know that you are detecting mostly at parks, playgrounds etc. not beaches. But what is your coil size recommmendation? Would you using 6" coil at beaches also? On beaches where i detect there is a large amout of bottle caps.
Beach Hunter here, with the Deus2. If I go single frequency, say at 20 or 40 KHz, will I target high conductors, as well as gold? Or will I risk missing silver jewelry, and coins?
There is no magic program, frequency or detector. You will miss SOME deep high conductive targets in higher frequencies. You will miss lots of low conductive targets in lower frequencies. That is why I like the mid frequencies(10khz-20khz)
Hi Jeremy, Greetings from Australia, thanks for your videos. I went back to the small coil after seeing this and went to some parks I've hammered and removed lots of coins. I decided to use 40kHz because I want to bias for gold jewellery since I cleaned up so much already but no jewellery. I didn't find any yet but it absolutely spanked higher conductors too! I pulled out more coins and some silver jewellery and I was able to keep gain at 30 and quiet! Today I went to look for a tiny gold pendant for a lady. Didn't find it but the Legend wouldn't hit the fine gold chain that she gave me to test. Only Gold field mode gave me a signal, but how do you use that and discriminate the good signals? You have to verify every signal right?
Do not discriminate!! Move your tone break down to 8 or 9 and put in 40khz park if you want to find small gold. Gold field program will drive you bonkers with the tiny pieces of foil. The small coil at high gain is the trick here!! Good luck Michael!!
@@PaystreakSuperfreak thanks! I shouldn’t have used the term discriminate. Not in the sense you mean, I don’t do that. I sort of meant in my brain since there’s no conductivity info (which is also why I just can’t get my head around pitch tones) cheers Michael
been using fisher f44 for 3 years. you think the legend is a good upgrade? seems like its up whit the big boys. or any other detector at the same price range that is better in your opinion?
You have raised some great questions. Static charge is generated by friction(conductive). I believe Faraday is inductive. I am no physicist!! Plastic does carry a static charge. ??? I am not sure!!
It matters how much minerals are in the ground. How wet the ground is. How fast you swing. What frequency you are running. Is the targets low conductor or high conductor. There are probably a thousand other variables that effect the depth of a detector.
That will help your big coil otherwise your coils is searching all the time and has difficulty locking on signal if its quite you don't need to@@PaystreakSuperfreak
SCENARIO…The carnies are disassembling the rides and games from a weeklong fair, leaving a field of trampled short grass full of lost coins, earrings, bracelets, and rings. My goal is to quickly detect surface targets only, intermingled in the short grass… Large Coil - Park - Lower sensitivity to detect a barely detectable earring test piece. - M2 or 20kHz - Discrimination F - Recovery Speed 10 - Iron Filter ??? - Stability ??? - Audio Gain ???… Please share your thoughts.
6" coil, Park, 40khz, recovery 10, audio gain 1, tone break 9, high sensitivity and swing as fast as you can. 11" coil will just slow you down because pinpointing the surface targets will be difficult and you are not trying for deep targets. 5x9 coil is ideal for that scenario. I promise you will get more targets out and cover more ground with a small coil when there is many targets!! DON'T WASTE YOUR ENERGY WITH THE 11" COIL ON SURFACE TARGETS!! Multi frequency needs a slow swing speed.
Absolutely love your channel the knowledge you gather is very helpful keep these videos coming
Happy hunting!
Such a great video. Extremely informative. I absolutely hate to think of how much gold I’ve ignored.😢
i was thinking that, i am going to try the small coil with high kh
Thanks once again, these are the kind of videos I need and like. Very educational. Your a master. Thanks Jim
Glad you enjoyed it
This is great. Your knowledge is awesome. Glad you have a channel. Your a excellent teacher.
I appreciate that Rod. Thank you!!

Thank you Jeremy i always use multi 3 with the big coil
I need to buy the small coil

I have a Quest Q20 It got a small double D cors coil on stock. Gold is always 50 on the ID with solid tones no matter what

Greetings from Poland!
Hello there!
Thanks for your knowledge, just got the 6" coil and can't wait to get out there.
The 6" coil is awesome. Good luck Bradley!!
9,5” eclipse is good to
@@ArTeCh777can the 9.5 from whites mxt work on nokta legend ?
Awesome!!!! thanks for this video i am getting a legend soon so good to know!!!!
Glad I could help!

I have the LG24 and LG30 coming!!
You prefer lg 24 over 6inch for nugget shooting ?
Great content
Thank you!!
Good Stuff
Confucius once said BE ONE WITH YOUR DETECTOR, you dig less trash and many goods.
No you dig EVERYTHING.dig dig dig dug.lots of good targets snuggled up next to trash iron etc.the more depth from the detector the better
Nice videos, Using the legend with LG24 coil. What’s a good coin set up. Been detecting for 8 months in ohio
Well damn...I guess I better get the small coil that came with my legend out of the bag and go back over everything I already detected!
The LG24 coil is awesome. The LG30 is a tank.
great video Jeremy one question though, what was your stability setting in mw in beach mode, bit concerning not did not pick the gold up ?. thanks
If I were to use multi. the stability would change for the conditions. I would usually run low stability.
Cool information, are all the demonstrations done with yesterdays new updated ?
Yes they are
Very interesting, thanks Jeremy. Now I'm not sure what to do at the beach! Maybe I should try 20 or 40khz. I'm on the stock coil and thought I'd want the new bigger coil, but maybe that's a bad idea!?!
How does 40khz do with silver? I'd like to know the optimum frequency for beach jewellery.
I am most excited about the 9x12 coil. It will be a banging coil.
40khz does not do well for deep silver.
Hey Jeremy, have you found a dealer that has the LG 24 coil in stock yet for the Legend? I can’t find one yet anywhere!
I pre ordered one today and was told still a few weeks from them arriving in the U.S. and Canada
Looks like you have alot of emi around there.
Hey, PS, have you experimented with the prospecting mode, in the park, using the 6 inch coil? I’m sure you have. I know, as you mentioned, your soil is very hot with iron.
Yes I have. The gold program does not have iron or mineral tones. Gold program overloads easy on surface coins or jewelry.
Hi Paysteak Superfreak. Maybe im wrong but i don't see much differences (deep or identify objects) using single or multi frequency in beach soil. Maybe multi frequency are even better in my case. Do you think that the soil might be the reason or i am totally wrong?
If I were hunting on any beach with any machine, I would use multi. All of my friends who have a Legend in my area use single frequency.
I know that you are detecting mostly at parks, playgrounds etc. not beaches. But what is your coil size recommmendation? Would you using 6" coil at beaches also? On beaches where i detect there is a large amout of bottle caps.

Legend is right up there with the big boys. The LG24 is just frikn deadly!!
Slight Static Charge builds up over plastic with every swing..
..(Perhaps, the plastic box is acting as a type of Faraday cage).
You have raised some great questions. Static charge is generated by friction(conductive). I believe Faraday is inductive. I am no physicist!! Plastic does carry a static charge. ??? I am not sure!!
How much depth do you lose with a smaller coil in comparison to a large coil ?
It matters how much minerals are in the ground. How wet the ground is. How fast you swing. What frequency you are running. Is the targets low conductor or high conductor. There are probably a thousand other variables that effect the depth of a detector.
I saw a post if you un-notch 8,9 the smaller chains and gold earrings will come in better
I never notch on any machine.
Did you let the machine look for best frequency before test? Lots of emi where you are
I usually never noise cancel or offset.
That will help your big coil otherwise your coils is searching all the time and has difficulty locking on signal if its quite you don't need to@@PaystreakSuperfreak

what do you mean tone break 9 what about the other tone breaks@@PaystreakSuperfreak
Great video. "Experienced" diggers in UK selling small cool from pro kit for pennies 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Alot of nails on the floor when they built the porch floor.
Lots of nails in the ground too.
