[QUOTE="ewomack, post: 3526378, member: 15588"]Yes, they are definitely Japanese. The other giveaway are the Kanji "大日本" ("Dai Ni Hone") which means "Great Japan" or "Empire of Japan," the name Japan used to refer to itself prior to World War II. I can't make out the date on the second 1 Sen coin - it's buried in the darkness of the photograph. Also, 1 Sen (一銭) was 1/100 of a Yen. The Sen, like the name "Great Japan," also vanished from Japan after WWII.[/QUOTE]
