Description from the seller
JAPAN. 1 Rin. 1883. Emperor Meiji (1867-1912)
- Value: 1 Rin.
- Reign: Emperor Meiji (1867-1912).
- Year: 1883.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: 大日本 · 明治十六年 · 1 RIN. Reverse: 一厘.
- Grading: MS63 (GBCA).
Coin of 1 Rin minted during the sixteenth year of the Meiji era. The obverse features the imperial chrysanthemum in the center, surrounded by the legend with the name of the country, the date in Japanese characters, and the face value in the Latin alphabet. The reverse shows the large Chinese character 「厘」 under the numeral 「一」, corresponding to the value of one Rin, in a sober design with a clearly calligraphic inspiration. The specimen retains an attractive reddish-brown color with traces of original luster, well-defined reliefs and uniform fields with very slight marks from circulation or handling prior to encapsulation, consistent with the MS63 grade. These small copper coins were part of the modernization of the Japanese monetary system during the reforms of Emperor Meiji, reflecting the country’s transition to an economy and coinage of Western style.
