<p>[QUOTE="ewomack, post: 4107932, member: 15588"]The coin posted as a reeded edge looks like Showa29 (昭和二十九年) or 1954, so that one should have a reeded edge. As already mentioned, the other one dates Showa 59 (昭和五十九年) or 1984 so it should have a smooth edge. The smooth or plain edges for the 10 Yen began in 1959. Everything dated before that will have a reeded or milled edge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
