    That's a nice one Dave. The weather was perfect today... it was very hard not being able to hunt. crying01
    The Merc was sure shallow. It's nice when you get a pleasant surprise from a shallow target.
    There is an area very close to there where I have seen old pictures of CW soldiers gathered. It's been on my list
    of places to detect for quite sometime. Gonna have to dig that research out again.
    Congrats on the silver.
