10 dong was only worth a fraction of a US cent.

If you're able to get out and metal detect you're doing good. If they made a Ding coin as well as the Dong coin, they could charge tourists out the Ding Dong. I remember one of my two older brothers who served in Vietnam talking about the way they ripped the service people off. If a Vietnamese walked into a bar and bought a beer they would charge them the low price and if an American bought a beer they would charge them the highest price. This was worse than the run of the mill tourist trap, it was a national pastime with them. My brothers said it was hard to tell who was friend or foe over there.
