If a battleship shell hit near there, we wouldn’t have this interesting picture. It might have just dug the the thing up and deposited it somewhere else...
Actually, I was thinking more like the piece of armor that PUGACHEV was referring to at the Navy Yard museum. Went there when I was a lad, and was very impressed by it, as well as the find display models they had inside.
But yeah, if the Nevada/Arkansas/Rodnol, etc. had hit it, it most likely would have been found a field or two away from its original location.
