The tides are finally looking great for this week, and I aim to get my share of detecting in while the gettins good. You may not know it... But I would rather hunt at night than during the day. There's too many people to contend with, and I don't speak Japanese.

That said, I'm just now getting home from a 3 hour hunt... and I'm whooped. The tide didn't get that low tonight (.59 meters), but the rest of the week should be much much better.

Try as I might... I could only manage one small silver toe ring. No platinum or gold for ole Nater tonight. Guess I'll have to get that later this week :wink:

So,... seeing how it's 2:30am here in Okinawa, and I have to go to work in a few hours, let's get to the pictures.

Here's the Booty for the night

5,267 yen ($70 US)
one silver toe ring

And as always... thanks for stopping by and taking a look at the loot.

With the strong Yen right now, it's a double edged sword.

Sure... the detecting finds add up a lot faster now

But when you're paid in USD and the Dollar keeps losing value... my rent gets more and more expensive

Hey if you go hunting a few more nights, you can just hand your landlord a big bag of sandy coins.


BTW...was that your usual spot or did you hunt someplace else?

A couple of yen here, a couple of yen there....they all add up.
With the economy doing poorly, anything you can find will
help "pay the rent". Thanks for sharing Bobbypins.
Gold Nuggets :hello:
