Sorry for the delay. Let's get back to basics!

Japan Tempo nishu (1832-1858)
Yet-Another-Forum-Game---Numismatic-Go-Fish!

Country
3 - Japan
2 - "Borders" Japan by a straight, unobstructed line across water
1 - Any other country (since I can't think of anything else for 1 point)


Composition
3 - Electrum
2 - Other gold
1 - Other silver (including billon)

Date minted (converted to Gregorian year)
3 - 1832-1858 AD (dated) or undated coin minted completely with this date range
2 - 1800s AD (dated) or undated coin minted only in the 1800s
1 - Other undated coin

Shape
3 - Rectangular (including square)
2 - Other polygonal
1 - Other non-circular. Not including coins that were intended to be "circular," for example, hammered coins that are irregular circles. Scalloped shape would work here, though.

Other points (1 each)
- Denomination is 2
- Made of electrum that's 0.3 gold
- Has one or more flowers (on this coin, the dots above the leaves are flowers)
- Has a dotted border

Maximum score is 16 points. Coins intended for circulation only.

I can always rewrite them... or abdicate!

However, I do have something in mind for the next time I finish in the hot seat.

Keith, I am going to "encourage" you to fulfill your hosting obligations for the next round.

But I got your back if you cannot.

3 or 4 points, "borders Japan" (2 pts.) made of silver (1pt), and I think she has flowers(?) in her hair (1pt).
