A nuclear magnetic resonance probe head comprising at least two coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2, wherein at least one of the coil/resonator configurations A1 has two saddle-shaped coils S1 and S2 (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53), wherein each coil (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53) has a window (9) about which N windings (3, 4; 26, 28, 30) are disposed which are connected in series, wherein N.gtoreq.2, wherein the coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 are aligned perpendicularly to each other, and wherein the coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 have different resonance frequencies is characterized in that each coil S1 and S2 (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53) is formed mirror-symmetrically relative to a central plane (5) of the respective coil (1, 2; 21; 41, 42; 53), which is perpendicular to the window (9) of the respective coil, and wherein the central planes (5) of the coils S1 and S2 are identical to minimize the electromagnetic coupling between the two coil/resonator configurations A1 and A2 at the resonance frequency of A2. The inventive NMR probe head reduces coupling between the two coil/resonator configurations.
