By what I figure this is 1867 + 2 = 1869 since there is no other add or multiplier character. Help?

This does not have the year on it. Please photo the reverse photo. What it says on the top is every 200 of this coin is exchangeable for one yen.

I'm on mobile now, posted wrong side cant post the other. so if all it has is the +, after the Emporer characters that means 10 + 1867 or 1877. Why is this higher value when largest mintage?

Still need the photos to start off with.

There are two varieties in 1877. This is when the scales changed from "c" to "v".

Thanks gxseries, I guess it isn't labeled correctly, eh?

I don't really use Krause for reference so I wouldn't know.

Some of the early Meiji coins are home to a fair number of varieties - some are not documented too well.

Nice addition Crazyb0!

I love the Japanese coins from this era.
