Meiji gold 10 Yen Year 4 (1871) MS66+ PCGS, Osaka mint, KM-Y12, JNDA 01-2. Without border. The second highest certification held by this immensely popular type, a flawless premium gem with immaculate surfaces of satiny luster and a simply pristine strike. Avidly-collected in any grade, examples of this type dramatically thin out as grade rises, and of the 187 specimens certified by either NGC or PCGS, only 3 are graded more highly than the present specimen. Accordingly, it is safe to say that this coin is one of the finest known of the type, and deserves particular attention from grade-conscious collectors of the Japanese numismatic series.
