Headed out for about a 1 1/2 hr. hunt after work to a popular park in Edmonton. Got some loot, a Chinese coin and a real nice stainless steel ring, as shown below.

Nice digs... I think that might be a Japanese 10 yen coin though, not Chinese. But I'm no expert!

Yup a Japanese 10 yen. Those are the most commonly found coins in Japan.
