Owner Comments:
JNDA 01-47. After a 10 year hiatus the 1 sen denomination returned combining the rising sun obverse and a rice stalk wreath+denomination reverse. The content shifted from copper to a bronze alloy while otherwise retaining size/weight of the preceding sen coin. The coins were minted in both the Meiji and Taisho eras.
This slot is the Taisho version of the coin, which was minted for only three years (T2-T4).
Diameter is 27.87 mm, bronze alloy, weight 7.13 grams.
