The Coiltek Goldhawk 10x5 is a 10 x 5 inch (244 x 140 mm) elliptical mono search coil for the Minelab GPX 6000. Coiltek says it finds flecks and deeper targets and moves easily around rocky or bushy ground, and calls it well balanced and built strong.

Which detectors the Goldhawk 10x5 fits
Coiltek makes the Goldhawk series for the GPX 6000 and lists the coils as fully compatible with it. For earlier GPX, GP and SD detectors, Coiltek's Elite-Max coils are the match, and Coiltek lists the Elite-Max as not compatible with the GPX 6000; they are in our Coiltek Elite-Max collection.
When to use the Goldhawk 10x5
Where exact coil placement matters more than sweep width, the Goldhawk 10x5 is the GPX 6000 coil we would pick: tight bedrock, rock piles, brush and small known patches. The narrow shape lets the coil lie flat in spots a wider coil bridges over. It searches a narrow strip, though, so for opening up new ground we suggest the Goldhawk 14x9 or the GPX 6000's own larger coil, then coming back with the 10x5. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.
The coil is waterproof to 1 m (3.3 ft), weighs 575 g (20.3 oz) and comes with its skid plate attached. Coil hardware color may vary.
