The MarsMD 7 inch DD coil (sold as the Lion 7) is a Double-D search coil measuring 7 inch (18 cm), in the version made for the Fisher F2 and F4. MarsMD made its 7 inch coil for challenging places: it is lightweight and compact, and it picks out non-ferrous targets even in very trashy areas.

When to use the Lion 7
The Lion 7 is a Double-D coil with high discrimination, at home in thickets and tall grass where reliable identification of non-ferrous targets matters. MarsMD makes only Double-D coils, and every MarsMD coil is waterproof. MarsMD gives its weight as from 370 g (13.1 oz), since the weight can run higher depending on the detector version. The coil body is filled with high quality epoxy resin inside a high impact resistant, UV protected plastic shell. It has a robust mounting bracket and a screw-on connector, and the cable strain relief keeps the cable entry waterproof. The coil is protected against electrical interference.
For the F2 or F4, the Lion is the close-work coil for thickets, tall grass and iron-heavy ground. Short sweeps let you pull a good signal apart from the iron beside it. On open ground, switch to the 10 x 6 inch Sniper or the 13 inch Discovery, which we also carry for the F2 and F4 and which take in more ground per pass. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.
