It&#039;s a hammered silver &quot;plate&quot; - thinly beaten and marked as 4 monme 6 bu. This coin did not last long as in 1870, uniform coinage appeared through the nation and in 1871, the yen is declared as the national currency. I&#039;m certain a lot were melted down.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/1015358.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly is a gold coin - never had a gold coin from Japan and found this in a reasonable price. Struck in 1871 - it&#039;s a really tiny coin. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/1015357.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Guess that&#039;s all for now - something different for a change?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
