JAPAN. 10 Yen, Year 4 (1871). Osaka Mint. Mutsuhito (Meiji). PCGS MS-65+ Gold Shield.
Fr-46; KM-Y12, JNDA 01-2. Variety without raised edge on the flags. Absolutely stunning and seemingly as struck without close inspection, the result of which reveals minimal contact points which barely disturb the luster and are blessedly light considering the production and storage methods of the period. The luster booms and continues from rim to rim without interruption while the original mint brilliance remains undimmed by tone.
Estimate: $6500 - $7500
