Yes it did was a screamer on the Garrett at pro

I'm not familiar with an AT PRO. The color reminds me of a piece of rusty iron or steel. With lead, usually the 1st thing I notice is its heavy for its size.

Lead is heavy and soft. It scratches easily with a steel implement and would reveal grey metal in the scratch. The piece looks like an overflow or spill from melted metal while making a casting or the remnants of something that has melted in a fire.
