Minelab GM10 10 x 6 inch DD Coil for Gold Monster 2000

The Minelab GOLD MONSTER 2000 GM10 is the 10 x 6 inch elliptical Double-D accessory search coil for the Minelab Gold Monster 2000. Part number 3011-0527. Minelab says it balances ground coverage and sensitivity in a range of gold detecting conditions.

Who the GM10 is for

The GM10 suits Gold Monster 2000 owners who want more ground coverage while keeping useful sensitivity to natural gold. It makes sense for prospectors who regularly search open ground and do not spend all their time in bedrock crevices. Minelab says it supports strong performance on small gold nuggets and larger targets across varied terrain.

How we use the GM10

We move from the 5 inch coil to the GM10 when we search broad gravel areas, accessible hillsides or larger patches of promising ground. Reassess the Ground Type setting and sensitivity after changing coils. In difficult mineralization, stable operation matters more than maximum sensitivity.

The mistake we see most is ordering by the GM10 name alone. The GOLD MONSTER 2000 GM10 is not the same accessory as the Gold Monster 1000 GM10, and the model-specific part number matters.

Key features

• 10 x 6 inch elliptical footprint: covers a wider strip per swing than the 5 inch coil supplied with the Gold Monster 2000.
• Double-D winding: the same winding as the GM2000-05, the standard Gold Monster 2000 coil.
• Waterproof to 3 ft (1 m): the coil can work wet gravel and shallow creek edges.
• Protective skidplate: Minelab sells the coil with a skidplate that protects the coil face from rocks and gravel.
• Made for the Gold Monster 2000: Minelab lists the coil for the Gold Monster 2000 only.
• 2 year Minelab warranty: Minelab covers Gold Monster accessories for 2 years.

Compatibility

The GM10 on this page fits the Minelab Gold Monster 2000. Gold Monster 1000 and Gold Monster 2000 coils are not interchangeable, and the Gold Monster 1000 has its own GM 10 coil for the Gold Monster 1000, part 3011-0336. The two share a name, so check the part number and the detector model on the control box before ordering.

GM10 or GM2000-05 for the Gold Monster 2000

The GM10 suits open gravel, hillsides and larger patches. The GM2000-05 suits bedrock, tight rocky ground and narrow spaces where small nuggets may be trapped.
