{"product":{"id":8289313390876,"title":"Minelab 15 x 12\" M15 DD Waterproof Coil for Manticore Metal Detector","body_html":"\u003cp\u003eThe Minelab M15 is a 15 x 12-inch elliptical Double-D waterproof search coil engineered exclusively for the Manticore, delivering the largest detection footprint Minelab offers for the platform. Manticore owners working expansive agricultural fields, lightly hunted pastures, or wide-open beach stretches reach for the M15 when ground coverage and depth matter more than pinpoint target separation in tight trash. Where the stock 11-inch coil balances versatility and maneuverability, the M15 prioritizes raw reach and sweep efficiency on sites where targets sit deep and spacing allows a wider swing path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included with the M15\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinelab M15 15 x 12-inch Double-D waterproof search coil for Manticore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitted skidplate (pre-installed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Manticore Owners Reach for the M15\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine depth gains on open, clean ground. The larger footprint reaches targets the stock coil misses below the typical coin-depth ceiling, giving the Manticore a measurable advantage on underhunted agricultural land and lightly detected fields.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCover significantly more ground per sweep.

Switching to the M15 does not compromise the Manticore's target intelligence, and the 2D display gives accurate tone and VDI readings even on deep signals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkidplate included from day one, so the coil face is protected on your first hunt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDeeper Coverage and Faster Ground Clearing on Open Sites\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAgricultural Fields and Pastures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn agricultural fields, pastures, and open estate grounds with relatively low mineralization, the M15 changes what the Manticore can reach. The wider sweep covers more area per pass, and targets sitting deep become consistently reachable. Raise Recovery Speed one or two steps above your usual field setting to manage any additional noise from the larger coil area.

On wide, open beach sites that have not been worked to exhaustion, the coverage advantage lets you cover productive stretches faster than a smaller coil allows. Beach Mode handles saltwater ground balance automatically. If you move into a section with heavier iron or tighter target spacing, the M9 is the right tool for that transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLarge Historical Sites with Deep Undisturbed Material\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn lightly hunted parks, commons, and former estate grounds where deep material has gone untouched for years, the M15's depth advantage matters most. These are the sites where targets at depth are reachable with the right coil, and covering the full footprint efficiently matters as much as raw sensitivity.
