cool police button. I'm assuming the merc is not a 'D'?

Great looking button! Lots of nice finds! Ya you forgot about the cold when you first saw the date on the Merc ! It's just a prelude for what's to come!
Sunday I had everything from frozen ground, had to leave the target, to mud in the top 2 inches! Like the ground can't make up its mind if it wants to freeze or not, or maybe that's just to annoy me! Lol!

Great hunt.

Just curious; could a person carry along (or better have a water boy) hot water to thaw the good spots where you hear tone?

Sweet button, the mercury would have had me changing my drawers in anticipation of checking for the mint mark!
