First Merc on 4th

[rferris75]

Went out to our local high school for the fireworks, we got there a lil early so my 2 yr old was restless so I discovered soil that has been turned over and graded at the school while walking him. Didnt have my detector with me but we did pick up approx 25 golf balls lost by the golf team. When we got home I had to detect some went over to the park behind my house and my third dig turned up a 1942 Merc. I just quit and come home I was happy. Will post the pic in the morning.
