What is in the box with the Nokta LG30 bundle
Nokta's standard contents for the LG30 (Nokta part 17000176)
- Nokta LG30 12 x 9 inch (30 x 23 cm) waterproof DD search coil
- Coil cover
- Coil mounting hardware

- Nokta carbon fiber middle shaft for the Legend (Nokta part 17000650)

Which detectors the LG30 fits
- Nokta Legend (The Legend, including the WHP and Pro Pack packages)
Nokta lists five coils for the original Legend: the LG15, LG24, LG28, LG30 and LG35. For the Nokta Legend 2, Nokta lists its LD series instead and does not list LG coils, so match the LG code when you order.
When to use the LG30
The LG30 is one of the five waterproof Double-D coils Nokta lists for the Legend: the 6 inch LG15, 9.5 x 6 inch LG24, 11 inch LG28, 12 x 9 inch LG30 and 13.5 x 12.5 inch LG35. Nokta ships the LG30 on the Legend WHP and the Legend Pro Pack, and it runs on all of the Legend's operating frequencies: Multi, 4, 10, 15, 20 and 40 kHz. Nokta rates the Legend IP68, fully submersible to 5 m (16 ft). Nokta lists the carbon fiber middle shaft and the armrest among its accessories for the Legend.
Owners of the first Legend who want a 12 x 9 inch coil for general searching, plus a carbon fiber middle shaft and an armrest, get all three in one order. The shaft and armrest change how the detector carries and sits on your arm; they do not change how the coil reads targets. On the coil side, the LG30 handles open ground and quieter parks well, and a smaller LG coil takes over where iron gets thick. LG coils are for the original Legend only. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.
