Litz wire at 100KHz sounds a little over the top. AWG20 or 30 will do the job nicely. Bob Wilson TIR Systems Ltd.

That loop can be used from 30 Hz to at least 100 kHz. It is handy because it is small and can be used as a probe. There are numerous loops developed for VDE testing that operate from 10 kHz to 30 MHz. But these loops are physically large and developed for use at 3 meters from the test item. There are also close field probes for diagnostic testing, but these have large antenna factors. So the answer depends on your specific need.

High accuracy is not important, values to be measured would be around 0.5mT and up. Thanks Istvan Novak SUN Microsystems
