The Elite-Max 14x9 detects deeper gold nuggets than smaller mono coils due to its flat and semi-flat winding construction and larger electromagnetic field. The 14x9 footprint detects deeper targets than smaller mono coils in open ground with low-to-moderate mineralization. Depth advantage increases on larger nuggets where the expanded field reaches targets smaller coils miss. The elliptical shape maintains depth performance while fitting between obstacles in rocky terrain.
