Its size and deeply engraved details exceed all other contemporary cast issues. Edge bumps, field smoothing and central hole filing visible, otherwise a nice Extremely Fine example. This coin is possibly a later reproduction, probably made in the Republic period. The consignor purchased this piece from Japan years ago. Sold as is, no returns. Estimate Value 5,000 - UP
