Nokta SC35 13.5x12.5" Waterproof DD Search Coil for Score Series Detectors

The Nokta SC35 is a 13.5" x 12.5" waterproof DD search coil that increases detection depth and ground coverage for Score series detectors. Score owners working open fields, beaches, and parks where larger targets hide deep see meaningful depth gains over the stock coil, while the DD configuration maintains stability in mineralized soil and trashy areas. The larger elliptical footprint covers more ground per sweep, making this coil the right choice for detectorists who hunt wide-open spaces and need to maximize efficiency without sacrificing target separation.

The waterproof construction lets you hunt tide pools, creek beds, and wet sand without concern. The SC35 is heavier than smaller coils, but the depth advantage often reveals targets that compact coils miss entirely. When you need maximum coverage and penetration in challenging ground, this coil delivers.

What's Included with the Nokta SC35 Search Coil

• Nokta SC35 13.5" x 12.5" waterproof DD search coil for Score series detectors

Why Score Series Owners Reach for the SC35

• Increased detection depth across all target types means coins, relics, and jewelry hiding below the reach of stock coils come into range, especially in open areas where depth matters more than maneuverability.
• Broader 13.5" x 12.5" ground coverage reduces the number of passes required to search a site thoroughly, letting you cover large fields and beaches faster without missing targets.
• Fully waterproof construction allows you to hunt shallow water, wet sand, and tide pools where freshwater and saltwater sites hold concentrations of lost items.
• DD configuration maintains ground balance and target separation in mineralized soil where concentric coils struggle, making this coil a better match for iron-rich ground and trashy parks.
• Compatible with all Score series detectors (Score, Score 2, Score 3), so one coil upgrade serves multiple machines if you own more than one model in the series. For other metal detector search coils: dd, concentric, monoloop & sef upgrades, our catalog covers most platforms.

Deeper Coverage in Open Fields and Low-Trash Sites

Relic Hunting in Agricultural Fields

Agricultural fields with minimal modern trash reward the SC35's larger electromagnetic field. The 13.5" x 12.5" elliptical shape penetrates deeper into soil than compact coils, pulling signals from relics that sit beyond stock coil range. The DD configuration keeps the detector stable in iron-rich ground common to old homestead sites. Sweep slowly in a straight line, overlapping each pass by half the coil width to avoid gaps. The larger size makes this coil less maneuverable around fence lines and dense brush, but in open ground it covers acres efficiently.

Coin Shooting at Sandy Beaches

Sandy beaches with low mineralization let the SC35 reach maximum depth on coins and jewelry. The waterproof design means you can work the wet sand and shallow surf without worry. The DD configuration performs well in saltwater conditions, reducing false signals in the transition zone between dry and wet sand. Target modern drops in the first six inches, but the real payoff comes from older silver coins and gold rings that have worked their way down over seasons of wave action. The larger footprint speeds up coverage on wide-open beach stretches where you need to search hundreds of yards of sand per session.

Park Detecting for Deep Silver

City parks with established turf hold silver coins from the early and mid-20th century at depths beyond the range of smaller coils. The SC35 pulls signals from dimes and quarters at depths beyond smaller coils' reach in compacted soil. The DD configuration separates good targets from iron trash (nails, bottlecaps) that pepper older parks. Run your Score in a multi-tone mode and listen for repeatable high tones that hold steady across multiple sweep angles. The larger coil size makes tight spaces around playground equipment and benches more challenging, so switch to a smaller coil for those areas and reserve the SC35 for open lawn sections.

How it compares to other Nokta search coils

The SC35 sits at the large end of Nokta's coil lineup. Comparing dimensions and compatibility helps you decide if this coil matches your hunting style or if a different size fits your sites better.
