Around what date did the modifications for the GPX change from the 3 way switch (LSM) etc.?

General Discussion / Coils for modified GPX
« on: August 06, 2017, 11:17:50 pm »
I have a selection of coils built up over the last six years. Most are DD or Anti Interference, as I hunt in the UK for small hammered silver coins I often need to be able to discriminate iron. I also have a small selection of monos'.
My questions are:
Will a fully modified GPX using either Coiltek/Minelab DDs or Coiltek AI coils give extra noticeable performance? I guess the Coiltek/Minelabe mono coils will benefit but I am not sure about the DD & AI.
My biggest problem is not ground noise but EMI from suburbia/power lines/mobile phone transmitters etc. Sometimes, I cannot get a completely smooth threshold. Will a full modification enable smooth threshold most times?
Is there an optimum coil size for a modified GPX? I use both the 4500 & 5000.

General Discussion / What size/weight is considered to be a small nugget ?

I have previously posted this on another forum but never received any reply or comment.
Minelab in their literature, when talking about coil sizes, use the expression 'small nuggets' & 'large nuggets'. I am interested to know what is the largest small nugget? and Smallest large nugget.
Being in the UK I am not detecting for gold nuggets and it would be helpful if I knew what weight/size a small and large nugget is, in order I can align them with targets found within the UK.
This information would be very helpful to GPX users in selecting soil timings/coil size and type.
