FYI I Believe The Lard Tin I have is a 50 Pound Bucket (16" Tall & 12"" Wide)
& A Magnet Sticks to It.
So The bucket at this point would Be making the Ground Bad.
Probably Nulling and Sounding like trash on a detector.
I would expect If Filled with Gold, No Discrim at all & digging Bad Ground Signals would be needed

Tuff one
