My guess would be trash . Sometimes when a coin is really shallow my detector goes crazy beeping but it usually locks on & the info doesn't jump all over the place . I'm sure someone else will jump in here .

If the detector is steady when held high off the ground you may just have a piece of junk and the detector can't pin it down due to shape or more than one target very close together.
