QuickSilver Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1077 Posts	Posted 02/23/2008 3:01 pm Hi, as near as I can tell (the first picture is a little unclear) the coins and years are as follows Picture 1) 10 yen - (49)1974, (45)1970, (57)1982, (59)1984 (reading from top left to bottom right) Picture 2) 5 yen - (46)1971, (7)1995, (50)1975, (47)1972 Picture 3) 1 yen - (5)1993, (55)1980, (9)1997, (58)1983 Picture 4) 10 yen - (2)1990, (10)1998, (54)1979, (2)1990 The numbers in brackets refer to the regnal year, or year of the emperors reign. The higher numbers are for Hirohito who reigned from 1926 - 1989 (64 years) the newer ones are for the current emperor Akihito. (The nines on that first set of coins could be sixes?) I would need a clearer picture to know for sure. Cheers, Lee Report this Post to the Staff
