Minelab Manticore M9 Coil (9")
Minelab Manticore M9 Coil (9")
The M9 is the coil you actually need for trashy parks. In my testing, this 9-inch coil unmasks coins next to iron that the stock 11-inch coil misses. It lightens the machine significantly and separates targets like a laser. If you hunt iron-infested sites, this is mandatory gear. A protective coil cover/skidplate is included.

Minelab Manticore M9 9-Inch Round Double-D Coil
The Minelab M9 is a waterproof 9-inch round Double-D search coil made for the Minelab Manticore. It is the lightest coil in the Manticore lineup and sits between the small M8 and the stock M11, giving you better target separation in trashy parks, old home sites and tight spots without giving up as much coverage as the M8.
The M9 is Minelab part #3011-0473 and ships brand new with a protective skidplate and coil hardware. Order from Big Boys Hobbies and get free shipping and no sales tax outside Oklahoma, plus free lifetime support from Bart.
Why Choose the M9 Coil?
- Lightest Manticore coil at roughly 380 grams, so the detector swings easier on long hunts
- Better separation than the M11 in parks full of pull tabs, bottle caps and iron
- Round shape gives an even detection field that is easy to pinpoint with
- Waterproof for beach, river and shallow-water hunting with the Manticore
- Good everyday coil for hunters who find the M8 too small and the M11 too big
Manticore Coil Comparison

| M11 (stock) | 11" round DD | General all-around hunting, included with every Manticore |
| M15 | 15 × 12" elliptical DD | Open fields and beaches where coverage matters most |

Minelab M9 Coil FAQs
Does the M9 coil fit the Minelab Equinox?
No. The M9 is made for the Minelab Manticore only and does not fit Equinox series detectors.
Should I get the M9 or keep using the stock M11?
Keep the M11 for general hunting and open ground. Add the M9 if you hunt trashy parks or old home sites where separating good targets from iron and junk matters more than coverage, or if you want a lighter swing.
M9 or M8 for trashy sites?
The M8 is the smallest and best for the very tightest, iron-heavy spots. The M9 is a better everyday coil if you want good separation but more coverage than the M8.
Is the M9 coil waterproof?
Yes. Like the other Manticore coils, the M9 is waterproof for beach and shallow-water hunting.
Does it come with a coil cover?
Yes. A fitted skidplate is included.

Love my M9. Bart at Big Boys Hobbies is the best.
Ultra light weight and no loss of depth. I miss the extra size of the M11 coil but the weight difference makes up for it.
Good product and communication.
Happy to get it! Hope to find more treasures!
Awesome coil. Lightweight and small to swing closer to things like fences and playground equipment. Detects items deeper than I’m willing to dig, 15 inches plus. Very good at separating items in trashy areas. It is now my primary coil to use over the M 11 and M 8.
