I thought since I have got my new car I would remove as many car parts from the interior in order to fully clean it!! I removed the seats and it was FILTHY underneath... then I look in my seat rails and I see...


















Two coins from Japan... now one of them is 10 yen BUT the other with the mysterious S is, IMO, from some sort of arcade hall or something?? Anyone know what it could be from or what the writing says on it??

Give it a few years, and that will probably be true.

The coin with the S on it says "pa-ra" ("parlor") on the top and then "Sakuran" followed by a Kanji character I can't make out. It's from a pachinko Parlor, would be my guess, called Sakuran something. Has cherries on it, too, which makes sense with the "sakura" theme.
