Just a follow up note to conclude my issue:
Obtained a decent stud finder and located a plate behind the decal. Drilled a small hole and discovered it is aluminum. Pushed a 2 inch trim nail through the hole and determined it was just about two inches to the exterior wall, therefore I used 1 1/4 inch screws. Six screws used and mount is securely attached to the wall. The mount I have has a locking tab for traveling to keep the TV from moving.
