Just a quick heads up, the coil you are showing looks more like a pancake coil than a caduceus coil..
The picture below is of the Caduceus coil variety...Notice where the wires cross over at regular intervals and at 45 degree angles to form an X, which describes areas of collapsed magnetic fields..

Thanks @TimeFlipper ; so what constitutes a Mobius Coil ?Just a quick heads up, the coil you are showing looks more like a pancake coil than a caduceus coil..

Thanks @Einstein ,Gibbs originally used a bifilar coil in a pancake wound configuration in his older HDR design. He changed the design to a caduceus coil configuration by adding a twist to the bifilar wires. Just enough twist puts the wires at right angles to each other thus making it a bonafide caduceus coil. There are many other way to make a caduceus coil too.
My humble apologizes; @Einstein and @TimeFlipperI'm not familiar with the term Mobius Coil. I would need to see it used in context with wherever you heard the term used.
Original equipment manufacture, or how the inventor intended their product to be used.What do you mean OEM?
Thanks @Mayhem
