BTW- As I recall, I determined that this coin was not proof manufacture. It may be a business strike that was cherry picked by a previous collector. (When I found it I certainly cherry picked it ). Maybe there are more out there that are this nice?

 

I wanted to make sure I didn't miss 1953 while at work. It's a good year for coins.

 

I know what you mean! And, I was about to bump to 1953 as I work a lot this weekend. I happen to have a number of late 40s/early 50s to show and a few will be sure to get skipped but oh well.

A couple Japanese of course. This one is a 5 yen of the currently circulating type, but has the old style lettering aka script or kaisho:


and a 10 yen that still has some nice color! Also in the currently circulating type, but has a reeded edge.


Even as late as the early 2000s the script 5 yens and the reeded edge 10 yens could be found in circulation....not in this type of condition, but still findable.

And, a bit different, from New Zealand.


Not too much for 1952 imaged, so I'm going to line up my 50s/51s in case I can post later tonight .
