Hey darth, I have one of those Japan Olympics 1000 yen coins in its original paper sleeve holder! How funny, I bet our collections are very similar It would appear so.  |

I'm assuming this is how they were purchased in gift shops or what have you. Can anyone read Japanese?

Very cool, Cascade. That original holder is neat, especially since it has survived all these years. 1964 was also the year my parents were married, so it's even more of a significant year for me.

Came from the first storage unit I ever bought (in palm springs, paid $2,000) that cleared $60,000. Yes, that many zeros and yes that does happen!... The guy was a ww2 8th AF pilot who traveled after the war
