NCtoad Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Has anyone tried the little 4” concentric on a mojave or silver umax or actually any other model? These are still available and I was wondering if anyone’s tried it and what specific applications they used it for. I was thinking it may have a place for densely polluted areas where a good find wouldn’t be very deep. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucannon Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Yes the 4 inch coil will work and trash separation is great and don't look for a lot of depth and can get maybe 4-5 inches on a penny but under bleachers and find that small micro jewelry is excellent. with the Mojave Good Hunting 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickUK Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I use the 4'' coil on 4 of my Tesoro/Laser 5pin machines,and its a decent little coil,i mainly use it in between OSR Oil Seed Rape crops as the stems are just like Bamboo and basically small coils in the 4''-6'' size range are the only ones that you can use,also another use for the 4'' coil and probably the most used is for Mudlarking on the Thames Foreshore or infact any mudlarking......i use mine on my Tesoro Silver Sabre,Tesoro Compadre,Laser B1 and Laser B3 my Compadre was modified so that it can accept the 5 pin coils rather than being hard wired like they usually are. Not a depth monster coil by any means but target separation is what its all about hence why is so popular a coil for Mudlarking on the Thames. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Hi, these are brilliant little coils for getting in among lots of signals, I've used mine on the Laser B1 and an Outlaw. Mainly in target dense areas like old rubbish tips or bottle dumps, on stream beds - where flexibility of movement is key and school playing fields. The Tesoro 4inch coil is excellent to use and excels at fine sifting, and for the size is pretty sensitive - I always find reasonably deep for how big it is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL NINO77 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 The 4" concentric coil...that I have on the Tesoro Mojave can be used best in separation,, but don't expect a lot of depth performance from it...,,rather a very moderate range.. another thing is that in mineralization it will not work better than a 5.75" concentric coil,,, range of 4" CC /tesoro Mojave/coil for various objects and various coins.. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsb Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I liked mine in the trash for sure. I sold it recently but couldn't get the coil cover off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kac Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 That is pretty impressive depth for such a tiny coil. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsb Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 I had the golden µmax and compadre and used a bandito for a summer. In good damp ground i have dug dimes at 10 inches and maybe a foot. Not with the 4 inch but that little puck was a godsend in a trashy tavern parking lot that closed in the 1960's, pulled silver that i missed with bigger coils. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noah (FL) Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Where did you see them for sale? I had an older one that got smashed unfortunately. Loved it with the Mojave for getting close tothe metal posts in playgrounds and super trashy shallow spots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Metaldetector.com, but I either read the green print of “In stock” and didn’t notice the word “No” after it or someone bought their last one after I posted. Sorry for giving anyone hope that they were still available. You’d think their website would take it down completely since tesoro is no longer in business and they will never be in stock again. https://www.metaldetector.com/tesoro-4-inch-round-concentric-search-coil-with-5-pin-connector 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
