1913 Japan 50 Sen - Superb Gem & Very Colorful

[gmarguli]

A better date of this type with a mintage of a little under 6 million. This example has every color of the rainbow. Lots of blues of many different shades, some green, red, orange, and other colors scattered around.

 

 

It's from some fairly well known collection (Goodman?), but I can't remember exactly which right now, so just enjoy the coin.

I like this one - so before truth asks first, may I have it?

It reminds me of a Meiji3 50 sen that I won from greattoning, but the parcel got lost in the way.

 

 

The only parcel I ever lost so far, ingoing or outgoing.

What a shame that such a lovely coin should be so tarnished.
