triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9401 Posts	Posted 11/19/2011 09:38 am I have been told this is an 1830 One Yen, but the more I look around on the net, the more I am confused. Can anyone positively identify this coin for me, please. I would like KM# or Y#, denomination, year, grade, and CV. I was also concerned as to whether it is real or not, with what appears to be a filed down section on the coin. Steve Identified - moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

bart Pillar of the Community Belgium 651 Posts	Posted 11/19/2011 11:13 am I suppose this could be Japan 4 mon (certainly not a yen) C#4.2 or C#4.2a.The coin bears no date but must be cast between 1769 and 1860. It must be possible to get more details from Japan experts. Report this Post to the Staff
