Message:: [QUOTE="Stork, post: 4035956, member: 71642"]I love these and some future project is to get more of the pre-Meiji and Meiji pre-moderns.  I've got a small handful for 'type', but nothing extensive.  Same with the round bronze.  A lot like this would be fun to go through and learn. What are your favorite books (or websites) for attributing them?  I have the JNDA which gets me only so far and I know enough to know there are some important calligraphy differences.  Also the Hartill book-- <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Early-Japanese-Coins-David-Hartill/dp/0755213653/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=japanese+coins+hartill&qid=1580324706&sr=8-1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Early-Japanese-Coins-David-Hartill/dp/0755213653/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=japanese+coins+hartill&qid=1580324706&sr=8-1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Early-Japanese-Coins-David-Hartill/dp/0755213653/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=japanese+coins+hartill&qid=1580324706&sr=8-1</a>  which is very useful. And, do you mind sharing where you bought the lot?  I left NYINC with some money left in my pocket (shocking, I know) and maybe a, perhaps smaller, group like this would be a good way to deploy the funds.[/QUOTE]
