Manticore depth question

I was curious about how deep the Manticore will hit on a silver dollar sized target. Can some regular users please chime in about your deepest find on a coin sized target.
 
Clay seems to be the limiting factor for depth, it always catches coins etc... We rarely have more than 12 to 18 inches of topsoil here so separation in iron becomes a major consideration. On inland beaches I have dug coins (dimes, pennies) and rings at 20 + inches where the coins are caught in the clay.
 
My deepest coin so far was an Indian at a good 11 inches. That was with the 9in. coil. ATLC, Rec.4 Sens.26 . For the dirt here in western Pa. that would be considered a very deep target for any detector.
