On your second pic, look at the 12 o'clock position. The first two characters say Meiji. The three horizontal marks mean "3" and the cross is "ten" (meaning 30) then there's the one. After that is "Year".</p><p><br /></p><p>I like these 50 and 20 sen silver coins. Got a few of 'em myself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
