These iconic square-holed coins served as the primary daily currency for ordinary citizens across feudal Japan. This bulk lot features various mint variations and conditions, making it an excellent wholesale lot for collectors, researchers, and dealers of Asian numismatics. Historical Context & Features: * Inscription: The front of each coin bears the four-character inscription "寛永通寶" (Kan-ei Tsu-ho), meaning "Circulating Treasure of Kanei." * Material: Cast primarily from copper alloy/bronze. * Variations: The lot includes diverse varieties produced at various official mints across Japan over more than two centuries. Some pieces feature reverse markings or stylized calligraphy distinct to their specific era of casting. Condition: Authentic antique/circulated condition.
