JAPAN: Bunkyu, 1861-1864, AE 100 mon (47.53g), Akita mint, Ugo Province, H-7.3, JNDA-130.10A, long-tailed phoenix // trigrams, three characters in ink on reverse (collector's ink), a superb quality example! EF, ex Dr. Axel Wahlstedt Collection. Issued at first as 100 mon, it quickly was reduced in trade value to 80 mon. The shape of this coin is probably based on the 'tsuba', or sword-handle guard of the Daimyo of Akita.
Estimate: 100-150 USD
