4cornersjim 0 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I've had a Whites GMT for several years and just picked up a like new GM3 with both a GM3 mono coil and a Goldmaster dd coil. What Sierra Goldmax coil will match up with these machines the best, the white mono coil or the black dd coil? I get out mostly in the Four Corners area, southern NM and south central AZ. Thanks for your help. Link to post Share on other sites
Kaimi 29 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Aloha,I installed my black DD coil about 2 years ago and have never looked at the stock coil since then. Well, maybe just to make sure it is still in the closet!It took me several tries to get used to the sensitivity BUT once you retrain your ears to the "new" sounds of the honker coil BOOYAH!!!!I have never seen a sierra goldmax in the mono coil so I cant comment on that one. Good luck in your search.Aloha and be safe out there.Stan aka Kaimi Link to post Share on other sites

frank c 968 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Jim, hes refering to the sierra gold max coil it is the larger than stock factory size, a bit heavier also.Google the whites site and look at accessories or on the jimmy sierra website too for specifics. Link to post Share on other sites

Big and Small 0 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 How many coils are there for the GMT? I haven't heard of any mono coils being available, they must be old. Will the older goldmaster coils work on the GMT? Link to post Share on other sites
snakejim 39 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 There is no such thing as a Mono coil for a VLF detector such as the White's Goldmasters. There are concentric and double D coils only. A mono coil is only used on the antique BFO and the pulse induction detectors. All the early Goldmaster coils were concentric. The original Jimmy Sierra Gold Max coil was just a larger concentric coil. The newer Black Sierra Gold max coil is double D. All the coils work ok in most cases. The double D handles the more mineralized ground better. All coils that fit the Goldmaster II, GMvSat, GM3, GM4, GMT, and GMZ are interchangeable.RSJ Link to post Share on other sites

I will keep an eye out for a shooter version of one especially. I had read they made one like that. Link to post Share on other sites

4cornersjim 0 Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 Sorry for the confusion in the OP. I meant concentric when I said mono in discussing the coils. BRAINFART Link to post Share on other sites
