Therefore I have been out of touch with my site and numismatic related stuff. </p><p><br /></p><p>The federal reserve 5 fen dated 1943 is the key coin of the entire series. While there is no specific reference, there are strong indications that these were either struck in Japan or struck in China using planchets imported from Japan. While 1943 1 jiao is common and the 1 fen coin is more challenging, it is not known why this 5 fen is scarce. Despite what Krause wants to reckon the value of this coin, I have never seen it gone under four figures! </p><p><br /></p><p>The Manchukuo coin 1943 1 jiao is supposedly the key date of the entire Manchukuo coinage as well. The likely reason why this is scarce is that due to the war, coins had to be struck with lower aluminum content. This was done with a newer design. </p><p><br /></p><p>I struggle to post links with this device but if you look at issuu.com and under my username you should be able to see some decent coin albums that I&#039;ve made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
