Meiji Counterstamped Yen Year 29 (1897) MS66 NGC, Osaka mint, KM-Y28a.5. Gin counterstamp to left of characters. Counterstamped upon Meiji Year 29 (1896) Yen. Exceptionally silky and nearly devoid of handling, sky-blue accents and sandy patina laid upon the surfaces to engender a stark impression of pristine originality. The sole-finest example yet certified by NGC, and an offering that doubtlessly will be met with strong bidder enthusiasm.
