This weeks PhotoHunt theme is I-Spy.
One phenomena of living in Japan is the amount of coins you seem to accumulate during the course of a day, and if you are not careful you will end up with more than 50 coins in your pocket at any time, unfortunately most of them being the 1 yen coin.
In addition to the usual assortment of Japanese coins in this photo I have hidden denominations from other countries. Some are easy to spot, some not so easy. To make it a little easier there are more than 5 and less than 10 currencies from other countries, including 1 duplicate country… my home country.
Good luck spotting them all, and if you dare tell/guess how many, and if you are well traveled you may even be able to pick the countries… good luck!
Happy PhotoHunting for this week.
As always I have placed the original full resolution image om my .Mac site to make it easier to spot the foreign currency.
I will post the answers Monday Morning Japan time…
p.s. In my footer I have an image rotator(refresh page to rotate) showing Featured Photos… there is 1 image that doesn’t belong… can you spot that also???
The first person who gets them all correct, including the footer image, before Monday I will send $10 via paypal Closed
Answer:
Unfortunately nobody even attempted to guess the currencies…. Next competition I will make sure somebody can win

I’ve no chance at all, but it’s a great game!
Yeah, we have coins too in a wine glass, would you believe?
That is a glass that we do not use anymore.
Yeeeks, I spy… lot of coins but what other denomination besides Japanese, I’m afraid I can’t tell you… ;(
What a clever idea for the theme. I think I see an American penny in there.
Love the look and layout of your blog!
You can spy mine here

I’m not sure about the coins but i’m madly refreshing the page to see the out of place image in the footer!?

hahahaha this is really fun!, i enjoy looking at the pic but could not recognized the other currency of money that you put in there..they all look the same for me..hehhee maybe need to pay more attention to it..
I thought I saw an American dime. Did I?
I think I might see a penny(1 cent) on there but not sure. I wonder what are the ones with the holes.
Ha… no way I can win… I am not a traveler… Good luck to the others!!
Excellent Post!!
Looks like a lot of money!
I played too
This was a clever idea! I can´t spy any coins from Sweden …
I love your photo!
Have a happy weekend!
We have a large container of coins from my years of travelling around Asia. The kids like it for show and tell now and again.
I can’t see anything that I recognize I’m afraid.
I have a huge container of coins from more than forty years of traveling around and being stuck with leftover coins. I should give them to some child as a collection.
Hehe, you need some really deep pocket to shop in Japan!!!
Hi Paul! Unfortunately, I was too late. I would have guessed the Singaporean and US coins
Come see my PH entry if you like a little temple-exploration.
That was cool! I wouldn’t be able to guess it all anyway!
