Default Coil And Settings Question - Help!!

I am new to the detecting world and I am getting frustrated because I don't know how to set up my detector for the maximum use. I live in Northern VA and like to do relic hunting. I have a 10.5 18.75 High Freq coil, a 7.5khz coil and a 3.5khz coil. What would be the best coil to use and what settings do I put the SENS on. I own a Minelab Xterra 70 Detector. I want to feel like I am getting the most out of my detector. Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers
Kevin
