Are you sure that you rewound the coil in the same direction as the old one was and that the coil ends were connected to the terminals same as originally? Oscillation depends on the two coils being in the correct phase WRT each other. A test (and possible correction) would be to reverse the connections to ONE of the coils and see if it oscillates. It may be way off but should tune in something on the dial or make a squawk somewhere in the broadcast band on another radio.
