Description from the seller
JAPAN. 1 Sen. 1934. Hirohito (1926-1989)
- Value: 1 Sen.
- Reign: Hirohito (1926-1989).
- Year: 1934.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: 一錢. Reverse: 大日本 · 昭和九年.
- Grade: MS64 BN (NGC).
Bronze 1 Sen coin from the early Shōwa period, with a sober yet elegant design characteristic of Japanese coinage in the 20th century. The obverse features the value “一錢” within a central field surrounded by stylized vegetal ornamentation, while the reverse shows a symmetric heraldic-floral motif accompanied by the imperial legend and the year in the Shōwa era. The specimen preserves an attractive uniform brown tone (BN), with original lustre well preserved in protected areas, sharp relief, and clean fields, showing only light contact marks consistent with its high grade. Represents a typical pre-World War II circulating piece, reflecting the aesthetics and discipline of Japanese coin design of the era.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
