[QUOTE="VicR, post: 677946, member: 21575"] Wie geht's Christoph, Looks like you and Cornelious have been bitten badly by the gold wunderlust bug. So you have really tackled the hardest part - getting written permission to detect on some land and you have made a good choice in detectors with the 6000. But just a few questions - - is the area you have permission to detect, does it have known alluvial gold fields or will you be looking for a virgin gold patch? - how long do you propose to be gold fossicking? Coils for the 6000 - the standard 11" is a very good all round purpose coil - but there are a lot of reports of it failing (becoming unstable) . I have never had problems with mine but it would be wise to have a backup mono coil - whether that's a large or small mono will depend on the type of country you will be detecting in.
