mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 12/27/2021 11:34 am What you have here is a Japanese 1 sen, year 12 (the two dashes is a 2, and the + plus next to it means 10, add 2+10=12, so year 12). Both your pictures are upside down . The year 12 refers to our 1937... Edited by mrwhatisit 12/27/2021 11:37 am Report this Post to the Staff

bart Pillar of the Community Belgium 651 Posts	Posted 12/29/2021 2:19 pm This is indeed a Japanese 1 sen coin, but it is dating from 1923 instead of 1937. The year is 12 of the Taisho era (emperor Yoshihito) and not of the Showa era (emperor Hirohito) https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5434.html Report this Post to the Staff
