this spot the targets are very scarce, but I managed to find my 2nd Large Cent from this spot
I think it may be 184x, need to try to clean it up better. was deep 9 inches measured with my Garret PP.

running All Metal, High trash, read 38-39

Not surprised to see 38,but 39 ...hmmm. An 1840 LC, I found in relic/low trash read 37-38 (a tad more accurate reading using low trash).

It was mostly 38, hit 39 once or twice. was down deep 9". all the LC's I've found have been in the 38 range. I was surprised to find the LC, I thought it was going to be another can, I had been finding some deep cans so I was expecting the same the deeper I got.

I'll bet as you were in pinpointing mode when over the target,and when you didn't hear that tell-tale awful screech from a crushed can or can slaw as you lowered the coil, your heart raced a bit faster knowing this could be a good target, !
