Great Day at the Beach (PICS)

[Coins4Cheese]

Well, I woke up at 5:30 A.M. so I could head down to the beach and do some metal detecting. At first, it was not that hot, and the beach was empty. But then the temperature started to rise, so I left early. Here's my finds for a 4 hour hunt.

1,104 yen, or $12.92 as of today.

Those two 500 yen coins at the top were great finds, because they boosted my total by a lot. For those of you that don't know, 500 yen is worth about $5.

Enjoy the picture and HH.

Those black 1 yens on the bottom I found in wet sand. The rest I found in dry. I used my Ace 250.
