    Meiji year 28 = 1895. Beautiful coin.

    I have a couple, both chop marked.
    Looks like one cost all of $14?! I miss 1990s coin prices...

    NGC World Coin Guide lists a XF at $65.00USD , but yours looks better, maybe AU53. That would elevate the value to approx $90-110.

    The NGC World guide has 2 other varieties listed but there is no explanation of differences. Go to NGCcoin.com and select “Resources” for further research.

    Love these coins; just can't stand that there are so many Chinese counterfeits out there!

    Whatever gave you that idea? Post away. I love seeing coins I've never seen before.
