    I got these for something under seven USD recently while looking for some S.Korean coins at a coin show in the basement of a VFW...
    I don't really know much about Japanese coins or their value... but I liked the chunky, funky bronze 2 Sen coin. More than common stuff, for sure.

    You have 4 Meiji era (1867 - 1912) coins there. (Ones with the dragon on them) The 10 sen (silver coin) looks very nice. The other one is a Taisho era (1912 - 1925) coin. The one with the hole is pre 1867.

    The Japanese 10 sen coin alone should be worth easily 7 dollars. Nice pickup.

    IMG_0885.jpg Well Irina, most of these pickups come from buying odd lots of coins. You see these all the time on Ebay. A smile ???? Lemme see. Happy Hagasaurus sipping a shot and a beer. :devil:
