I went hunting with a buddy of mine around town and was looking for the old fairgrounds in Pensacola. Well I had found one area where it was held, so we went to check it out for a little while. Got out of the truck walked about 5 feet and turned on my Ace 350 and got a hit, this is what I found. It was a good day. earlier that day I had found a mercury dime 1943. But don't know to much about this button, did some research and found something similar but the eagles head was turned to the opposite side. Does any one know what time frame this button was from. I'm thinking 1940?
