Minelab supplies one representative photo for its V-series plates; this part number is the V12 size. Official OEM part sold by History Seekers, an authorized Minelab dealer.
Why this skidplate
The V12 is the big-coverage coil in the Vanquish and X-Terra lineup, which means it is the one working closest to the ground over the most territory. Gravel driveways, tailings, schoolyard bark chips, salt-wet sand: the plate eats all of it so the coil shell does not. US dealers rarely bother printing the dimensions; we do, 12 x 9 in is 30 x 23 cm, because knowing you own the V12 and not the V10 is the whole game with covers. When the old plate is scrubbed through, this genuine replacement clips protection back to factory for less than the cost of shipping a coil for repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which coils does this fit?
The V12 family: the 12 in x 9 in (30 cm x 23 cm) V12 coil on Vanquish detectors and the V12X on the X-Terra Pro and Elite, per dealer consensus.
Is the photo the exact plate?
Minelab uses one representative product photo for its V-series skidplates; you receive the V12-size plate this part number specifies.
Why replace the factory plate?
Skidplates are sacrificial. Once the original scrubs through, the coil shell starts taking the wear, and a V12 coil costs far more than its cover.
