At a glance
Genuine Minelab accessory, part 3011-0430, UPC 811493017495. Fits: Minelab GPX 17 17x13 in Elliptical Monoloop coil (GPX 6000). Official OEM part sold by History Seekers, an authorized Minelab dealer.
Why this part
The GPX 17 goes on when you are chasing deep targets in open ground, and big elliptical coils scrub more surface per swing than anything else in the kit. This genuine Minelab plate is molded to the 17x13 in ellipse exactly, so the coil you bought for depth keeps its shell intact no matter how hard the ground pushes back.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this fit the smaller GPX coils?
No. The GPX 11 uses plate 3011-0428 and the GPX 14 uses 3011-0429, each molded to its own coil and listed separately.
Do I really need a skidplate on a big coil?
More than on any other: the largest coil contacts the most ground per swing, and its replacement cost is the highest.
Is this the genuine Minelab plate?
Yes, official part 3011-0430, exact-molded for the GPX 17, from an authorized Minelab dealer.
