A Thousand Words. (Or at least a couple thousand pesos.) Manila 1945. The ground is littered with worthless Japanese Military Pesos.
Great photo! To this day there are treasure hunters in Manila looking for silver and gold that the Japanese stashed on land. Also, didn't they dump coins into the bay?
Great picture! According to this story there are still 3.5 million silver pesos at the bottom of Manila Bay. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/360761/millions_in_silver_coins_dumped_in.html?page=3 Lou
