1870 (?) ONE YEN in COASTERS (one) OK...here we go. Note the white ID in the upper LH corner. Also, all of these appear 'golden' because I...
I don't have the skill (or resource, I don't believe) to post offsite and add a link here. As there are 20 faces (18, if the 1903 One Yen is...
Thanks, good sir...I don't have Japanese characters on my machine (I couldn't read 'em if I did) so the two links were indecipherable...but I'm...
These two appear to be roughly similar, but the left-hand three characters above the General's profile on 1A are not as heavily struck as the...
Another of these coins, with obvious British influence (is that Britainnia standing with trident, and the Union Jack on her shield?), but the...

Yes, I can. I assume you refer to the others without english. When I posted those original four, that was an imposed limit...I wasn't allowed to...
Thanks for your reply, and the information it contains. I'm assuming that they are recoverable from the coasters. I feel badly about 'losing'...
Lovely coin...but the pic is a beaut! How'd you get one coin, both faces edge-to-edge, and the barcode all in one snap? Thanks for sharing...
There are ten of these in a fitted box, nine of them having what appears to be one type coin (no english characters) and one having the coin with...
