JAPAN. 20 Sen, Year 9 (1876). Osaka Mint. Mutsuhito (Meiji). PCGS MS-65.
KM-Y-24; JNDA-01-21; JC-09-21. Unconnected (type 1) "mei". Superior striking quality and surface preservation for this early 20 Sen issue. The finish is remarkably reflective in the fields, which contrast markedly with thickly frosted, smartly impressed design elements in a prooflike manner. Brilliant and visually appealing, there is much to recommend this coin to series specialists.
Estimate: $150 - $250
