dc.abstract.enUltra-low-mass axions are a viable dark matter candidate and may form a coherently oscillating classical field. Nuclear spins in experiments on Earth might couple to this oscillating axion dark-matter field, when propagating on Earth's trajectory through our Galaxy. This spin coupling resembles an oscillating pseudo-magnetic field which modulates the spin precession of nuclear spins. Here we report on the null result of a demonstration experiment searching for a frequency modulation of the free spin-precession signal of $^{199}$Hg in a 1 $\mu$T magnetic field. Our search covers the axion mass range 10$^{-16}$ eV $\lesssim$ m$_{a} \lesssim$ 10$^{-13}$ eV and achieves a peak sensitivity to the axion-nucleon coupling of g$_{aNN} \approx$ 3.5 $\times$ 10$^{-6}$ GeV$^{-1}$.pl
