[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 481699, member: 4373"]This is one odd experimental coin that was attempted by a Japanese company as various metals were used for the second world war. This 1 sen "coin" was never released to the public as the war was pretty much coming to an end. I have seen them up on ebay from time to time but when I do come across one, it's either I forget to bid or prices just go too absurd. This time though, I finally won it at a reasonable price that I'm happy to pay for. [img]http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/956843.jpg[/img] It's a coin orientation btw the way. There's supposedly a medal orientation of it but I'm not going to bother finding one. Here is some additional information but I am not too sure how to translate them: 佐賀県有田町 協和新興陶器有限会社及び 京都 瀬戸にて製造 三間坂粘土 60% 泉山石 15% 赤目粘土 15% その他 10%[/QUOTE]
