I bought the Deus 2 with a 9” coil based on how much I liked the Deus 1.
I have both HF Coils (9” Round and the Elliptical HF coil) for my Deus 1 and love detecting with it. I feel fortunate to have both the HF coils.
The Deus 2 I haven’t had that much time on it but feel the D2 is also a tremendous detector.
Best of luck with the new detector!
