There's only one type of nail used for everything in the world [emoji289] one size NOT! :-)

Carpentry nail as in finishing nail: no head hardly [so as to be hidden below surface and then covered] with wood putty and then painted over[hidden]

This is why it went unnoticed. Not only did it have such a small head, but it was in between the treads of an 8/32 tire...
You couldn't see it.
I told the shop to take the tire off and check everything before I spend upto $300 for a Continental run flat...
