Description
Nokta SC30 12 in x 9 in DD Waterproof Search Coil for the Nokta Score Series
At a glance: The Nokta SC30 is the 12 in x 9 in / 30 x 23 cm Double-D waterproof search coil for the Nokta Score line. It is the standard coil the Score, Double Score, and Triple Score are built around, the balanced do-everything size for coins, relics, and beach work. Fully waterproof DD, submersible with the detector to 16 ft / 5 m (IP68). Fits the Nokta Score, Score 2 (Double Score), and Score 3 (Triple Score). Part 17000183.
Your Score came with this coil for a reason, and a nicked or waterlogged coil should never be the thing that ends a hunt. This is the SC30 as a clean spare or replacement, the same 12 in x 9 in / 30 x 23 cm coil your detector was tuned around.
The SC30 is the coil that ships on every model in the Score line, so it is the size the machine's simultaneous multi-frequency timings and target ID were calibrated for. That is what makes it the honest all-rounder: enough footprint for real depth and ground coverage, enough shape to keep separation clean in moderate trash, and light enough to swing for a full day. If you hunt a bit of everything, this is the coil that does a bit of everything well.
Why the SC30, and which Score it is for
Think of the three Score coils as a set. The SC24 9.5 in x 6 in / 24 x 15 cm is the small coil for trash and tight ground; the SC35 13.5 in x 12.5 in / 35 x 31.5 cm is the big coverage coil for open fields. The SC30 sits in the middle and does not specialize, which is the point: it is the coil you leave on when you do not know what the day will bring. One thing worth stating plainly, because some listings get it wrong: the SC30 fits the whole current Score line, including the Score 3 / Triple Score, not just the Score and Double Score. Buy it as the spare or replacement for whichever Score you run.
It is a Double-D (DD) coil, the configuration that gives the Score its stable target ID and clean ground handling in mineralized dirt. It is fully waterproof; the coil does not set the depth limit, the detector does, and the Score line is IP68 rated and submersible to 16 ft / 5 m, so the SC30 goes as deep as you can take the detector, wet sand and shallow water included.
Compatibility, stated straight: the SC30 is matched to the current Nokta Score line, so it fits the Score, the Score 2 (Double Score), and the Score 3 (Triple Score). It is a Score coil, not a Simplex or Legend coil, so do not fit it to those machines even where the dimensions look familiar. If you are unsure which Nokta you own, call us before you order.
