Minelab GPX 14 14 inch Double-D Coil for GPX 6000 Gold Detector

The GPX 14-inch Double-D coil is compatible exclusively with the Minelab GPX 6000 metal detector. It mounts directly to the detector's lower rod without adapters and is designed specifically for the GPX 6000 system. This coil will not work with earlier GPX series models like the 4500 or 5000. If you own a GPX 6000 and want to expand your coil options, this 14-inch Double-D pairs well with the stock 11-inch monoloop available in our Minelab GPX 6000 - Professional Gold Detector collection.

The GPX 14-inch Double-D coil is waterproof to 3 feet (1 meter), meaning you can fully submerge the coil while hunting creek beds, shallow streams, and wet washes. The waterproof rating applies to the coil itself, not the GPX 6000 control box, so keep the detector's electronics above water. We've run this coil through seasonal desert washes and gold-bearing creeks without issue. The waterproof construction also protects against rain and mud, common conditions during prospecting trips in variable weather.

The coil measures 14 inches (355mm) in diameter and features a round shape for balanced swing weight and even ground coverage. Minelab describes the construction as lightweight solid, though the manufacturer does not publish an exact weight specification. In the field, the 14-inch diameter is noticeably larger than the stock 11-inch coil but remains manageable for full-day prospecting sessions. The round shape distributes weight evenly, reducing arm fatigue compared to elliptical coils of similar coverage area.

The Double-D configuration excels in mineralized soil and areas with high electromagnetic interference, staying stable where monoloop designs chatter on hot rocks. This makes the DD design the better choice for prospecting in challenging ground conditions. Minelab's manufacturer documentation confirms this coil operates successfully in conductive soils that render monoloop coils unusable, particularly after rain when ground salt dissolves. The GPX 14-inch Double-D handles these difficult conditions while still detecting small gold at depth.

You receive the complete GPX 14-inch Double-D coil with Minelab's standard GPX 6000 connector pre-installed. The coil is ready to mount on your GPX 6000's lower rod without additional hardware or adapters. Minelab does not include a coil cover or skid plate with this accessory, so if you want to protect the coil's bottom surface from abrasion, you'll need to purchase a cover separately. The coil ships ready to install and use immediately upon arrival.

Use the 14-inch Double-D when you're covering large open areas, working in mineralized or salty soil, or hunting environments with high electromagnetic interference. The wider diameter saves time on expansive claims and old mining sites where you need to grid significant ground. Switch to this coil when the stock 11-inch monoloop chatters excessively on hot rocks or becomes unstable in conductive ground after rain. The Double-D configuration handles these challenging conditions better than monoloop designs while still detecting small gold at depth. For tighter spaces or heavy brush, the smaller 11-inch coil remains more maneuverable.
