Well, I think we're looking at a 1 sen coin minted 1880-1884, inclusive. I'll go with the highest mintage of those:
My guess is an 1884 Japan 1 sen of Emperor Meiji.

Are we sure it's a Sen. My question asked if the monetary value was greater than 4 sen. That's akin to asking if a coins monetary value is greater than a half dollar, which would cover cents, dimes, nickels quarters, dollars, half eagles, etc. Or am I missing something.

...no....You will have to set the date you had in mind Canada gained its eighth and ninth provinces on September 1, 1905, so if the answer is no, then the coin must have been issued no earlier than 1906.
