I posted in my F2 thread about my last few hunts with my F2 and a sniper coil and all the particulars are here in post #366, but I thought I would just add a small post here to let you know how impressed I am with this little thing.

Considering this coil costs about $15 if you get the 2 or 3 coil package with a new F2, this is another reason I believe there is no better value on the market for such a highly productive starter unit.
This was from a short hunt yesterday at an extremely trashy park I came across in my travels yesterday, not sure how many have hunted this place but I found all these quarters, most of the other clad and this religious thingy in a small picnic area among a huge amount of trash.
This was another trashy park, but I managed to find some clad and my first 3 ringer...
In this pic, that husky key-chain was found in some grassy islands I had hit before with the 8" coil, but missed it the first time around.
Everything else in this pic came from a small park site I hit the same day that was hunted many times before by other hunters and even more recently, but I was still able to pick up this really old lighter, (hope it's a Zippo!), that adjustable eagle ring and that 1949 commemorative Harry S. Truman inaugural coin put out by the U.S. mint in 1949.
These 3 items came from an area in this park that had an old house standing at this exact area, and tons of trash.
The only reason I found that lighter, which came in at 15 and iron, is that with the smaller coil I am able to pick out the better iron signals instead of avoiding them completely like I usually do with the 8" coil.
Way too many 06-08 super jumpy iron signals in the sites I hunt in all metal, (no notching), but I am now leaving iron in and digging all solid signals that come in at 10 or higher, and that old lighter was a nice score for the sniper coil.
I found that unlike hunting with the larger coil on max sense, this coil is extremely quiet unless I am actually over a target.
$15 for an excellent accessory for the great F2 that really works?
Or only about $40 if you buy it after market or even cheaper used.
How can you beat that?
If you got an F2 and have never used this coil, or any detector that has a small coil available, what are you waiting for?
You won't be sorry!
