Ajay and I found fourteen cents. Our first find was a penny at the Northridge Pacific theater where we took the kids to see IRONMAN! Loved the money... very exciting!
Our next find occurred along a bike ride through our neigborhood... 2 pennies. At the Von's on Yosemite Ave., I scooped a nickel from my parking space and a penny and nickel by the cashier stand.

At a family birthday picnic at Lacy Park in San Marino, I find a degraded and corroded penny between the picnic tables... weird that I spotted it amongst the dirt... I guess I'm a professional coin spotter by now. The last find of a dime and a penny was made at Von's on Yosemite Ave.
