Detector(s) used
Bounty Hunter Tracker IV, Garret Ace 250
Hey everyone. Yesterday and today, I went out metal detecting with my Ace 250 for about 5 hours total. Here's my finds:

465 yen in modern clad. (About $4.65)

1 [junk?] ring. It has markings on the inside, but I they're illegible.

Fake teeth :tongue3: There's a silvery metal, but I don't know what type it is. Might be white gold, but it read up as a nickel on my detector.

Enjoy the pics and HH.

Gold should read as nickel so I'd say white gold. :icon_thumleft: Looks like white gold to me, maybe even platinum. :icon_scratch: :o

Gross but good metal !! :icon_thumleft:

Keep @ It and HH !! ;D :D
 
Nothing like having an extra set of choppers!
 
interesting finds :icon_thumleft: MR TUFF

What are the detecting laws in japan all about?

Well, in Japan, you can detect pretty much any where you want unless it's private property. Everything you find ABOVE ground you have to turn into the police. But finding it underground is an exception. Other than that, it's pretty easygoing.

Cool find C4C. Hope you find some Jap silver coins. Remember, if you find it on top of the ground, bury it! :)
