If he coiled, almost definitely a feeding response. Aggressive/defensive bites are usually strike, bite, let go, and possibly repeat!
Also, as you probably know, he might recognize you and/or your scent, but he can't hear you, well like we do. No ears! LOL!
Cool he is a friendly little fellow. Sounds like an odd duck a little with the biting and coiling on a hand though!
