The 1940 is a bit different as explained to me
War years, where metal quality and annealing was crappy at the best of times - partly one reason why it is so hard to find nice red lustrous coins from the war years. That is one amazing coin! Wow!  |

Found this hiding away. Color contrast is not very clear but it's definitely a woody. I have also found a bunch of Chinese Manchukuo 1 fen woody as well.
