Got out for a bit today to an old spot and managed few buttons plus a buckle of sorts. Then for the third or fourth time now I found a 1916 Merc...held my breath...looked the reverse and....No "D"ice...Maybe next time,lol.
Thanks! The site I went to has been very good in the past and yeilded many coppers including a MA and tons of other stuff ranging from pre colonial to Victorian.
